  1. I don't think that would be because he is overly excited, I think Wilken is legit, and I still think he plays with the Brewers at some point this season!
  2. I like your optimism, I just don't share it.
  3. This is the bottom line as I see it: With the rotation as it currently sits, this will not be a playoff team in 2024. Defense and bullpen should be great. Offense, hopefully improved, but there will be a lot of growing pains with the youngsters. The rotation is the obvious question mark, and for things to advance to a playoff caliber team, we are going to have to have a lot of things go right with this group. I'm skeptical, but can't wait to see what happens.
  4. Keeping all these in the collection, nothing new to add to the dump pile yet: Bad Boys Trilogy - Fun movies to watch, but the way the third one ended, I don't think I'll be interested in anything from that franchise in the future... I find Will Smith to be irritating these days since his ridiculous hissy fit with Chris Rock. Behind Enemy Lines - Not one of my favorite war movies, but still a fun watch... Took me a little while to buy Owen Wilson in this role, but once I got used to him, it was fine. Best of Enemies - Love this movie! Big Daddy - Good movie to watch to kill some time or take your mind off things. Not a huge Sandler guy myself, but this one is entertaining. The Big Lewbowski - I am not into this movie as much as a lot of people, and I realize it has a pretty big cult following, but I do like it, so it's a keeper. Beverley Hills Cop Trilogy - Kept them all!
  5. Actually, what is best for the team is to not have Yelich in the OF much at all. If it truly is about winning, and our outfielders are as good as we hope, Yelich shouldn't be out their with his average fielding.
  6. I'm not sure anyone here hates the man Craig Counsell, I don't hate him personally, but as a sports fan, I will throw all my hate his way until he retires. Sports fan hate is a lot different than personal hate imo. I hate that he's a Cub, and I hate the Cubs, so yeah, I guess you can take that any way you want. Craig Counsell is the enemy, and I wish him the poorest luck this world has to offer.
  7. Crap. Wanted him to go someplace else other than St. Louis or the Cubs..
  8. We have our future 3B already, Wilken will be there at some point this season, just a matter of how soon they will move him up. I've been saying since last season, this kid is going to solve our 3B problem for years to come! I was actually hoping they would trade Turang so we could have Black at 2B and Wilken at 3B. Now that we look like we are keeping Adames (this year anyway) especially.
  9. 100% agree. He wanted out of Milwaukee, and the money was a bonus. Not sure he will fess up as to why he wanted the change, but the writing was on the wall, he wanted out! Just too bad it had to be the Cubs of all teams. I'm now fine with it, just gives me one more reason to root against them.
  10. Screw Craig Counsell, I hope he goes 0-162.........................................FOREVER!
  11. Yup, the Milwaukee press NEVER asked the tough questions, threw him softballs his entire time here. I'm not real familiar with the Chicago press, but I highly doubt they will be as easy on him as we were. I look forward to seeing him squirm.
  12. It may have been a vanilla shot, but it was a shot none the less. It was a dig for sure, if he meant it to sound like it did, I don't know, but I know this: I will enjoy rooting against the guy. Screw Counsell, he is now the enemy.

    Really loving the new Ace Frehley that came out yesterday!
  14. I'd be intrigued by Syndergaard. Is there any chance he can be the pitcher he was before the injuries? I read his fastball is coming around.. If cheap, he has the opportunity for lightning in a bottle...
  15. Aaron Ashby (shoulder) is healthy and will compete this spring for a spot in the Brewers’ season-opening starting rotation. Ashby is among a handful of back-end starting rotation options for Milwaukee this spring after missing all of last year recovering from left shoulder surgery. The 25-year-old southpaw showed some flashes of fantasy potential earlier in his career and could be worthy of a speculative roster spot, if he locks up a rotation spot. Source: Todd Rosiak
  16. This feels gimmicky to me. I don't like the idea of taking anything away from his offensive comfort zone. Trying to learn two new positions takes away from him concentrating on hitting. Just not a fan of this kind of move, when we have a lot of guys who can play 2B and 3B who know the positions. Sorry to be a buzzkill, but I just don't like this.
  17. Oh boy, are you setting yourself up more some pretty big disappointment...
  18. Brewers released C Austin Nola. It seems Nola requested the move after the Gary Sánchez signing left him fourth on the Brewers’ catching depth chart. The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal says Nola will be signing a major league deal with Kansas City, where he’d presumably be third on the depth chart ahead of Sandy León.
  19. I know this for certain, I will be rooting against CC hard all season long, not just when we play him, but every game he manages. I want to see complete and utter failure from him and his team.
  20. Gary Sánchez suffered a hand injury during a workout which was why the deal with the Brewers stalled. An interesting wrinkle into the Gary Sánchez signing. Last season, Sánchez suffered a wrist injury in early September and ended his season. However, he told Brewers beat reporter Todd Rosiak that it wasn’t the wrist that held up the deal with the club; it was a hand injury that he suffered several weeks ago during a workout. This doesn’t seem to be all that concerning since Sánchez was cleared for baseball activities, however, it sheds light on the delay of the signing. Source: Todd Rosiak
  21. All I know is that I like 3 million plus incentives WAY better than 7 million guaranteed. This way he has to play well to get the $. Love that!
  22. The post I am referring to said something like 14-17 million in 2025, that was on top of a salary for 2024. Too lazy to go find it. The current deal has a mutual option for 2026, which was unknown at the time.
  23. I was one of those schmucks, I tuned out for 2 full seasons (guess what, I didn't miss it....AT ALL! In fact, it was pretty damn fun to spend Sundays and the other random nights not glued to the TV), until Brady signed with the Bucs, and that brought me back.
