  1. Ok, but is the trade-off worth it? Can we find power elsewhere that doesn't involve a lazy baseball player, who is pretty poor defensively, and who strikes out a TON? Add in the fact that he belongs to an inter-division rival, making it even more difficult to pry him away. I mean, he's a .200 hitting 20 HR guy. I'd hope we can do better, he just doesn't fit our profile.
  2. Nah, that has nothing to do with anything as far as viewership. I think you might just be looking for a reason to politicize the WS. People are watching because it's baseball...
  3. Seigler played 3B, not catcher, so Contreras had noting to do with it. He played 25 games at 3B, 1 at Catcher, and 1 at DH.
  4. Seigler is just a guy that Murphy was enamored with for a little while.
  5. Please excuse my ignorance, but what is the political situation that has more people tuning in? Seriously, I don't know...
  6. Perkins is not a starting caliber MLB outfielder with the bat. We've been there, done that, and he simply doesn't cut it as an every day player.
  7. ...and, he's a whiff machine. Nothing about this guy fits our needs or profile.
  8. Duran and Chourio in the OF every day! That might be a good plan. I'm assuming it would then be Duran, Chourio and Frelick as our every day starters, freeing up a possible Isaac Collins trade? Issue then is, who plays CF? Duran played primarily in LF in 2025. Duran's numbers weren't that great this past season. In fact, his stat line was down in almost every category. Worse in hits, homers, doubles, runs, stolen bases, OBP, OPS, and slugging. Batting average took a major hit down to .256 from .285 the year before. Also, he struck out more with fewer at bats than 2024. 2025 he struck out 27%, 2024 he struck out 23%. Is he trending down? Is this a good time to try and nab him, thinking 2025 was just a blip? Be nice to get a guy in the OF that has 30 HR potential, and I don't think Duran is that guy hitting only 16 in 2025.
  9. You just know the Cubs are going to do something... I doubt they give Tucker the money, but I 100% can see them dealing on Schwarber. My guess is they open up the purse strings a little bit more this year because the thought of the Brewers winning the division once again, is going to motivate them to spend a little bit...
  10. The Pirates also have 2 studs offensively just knocking on the door! Esmerlyn Valdez SHOULD get to the majors in 2026, and probably should have come up in September of 2025. This kid is going to be a menace to us for a decade! Konnor Griffin is the other one, not sure how close he is, but they do have some offense on the way too!
  11. If he's a great player, he'll be a Dodger...
  12. Is it technically illegal to have dogs sitting in your lap while driving? If it is legal, it shouldn't be. Had a lady cut me off yesterday. Just driving along, on a straight stretch of 45 mph roadway, and she absolutely cuts me off for no apparent reason. I'm assuming she just didn't see me in her blind spot. So I pull up next to her at the next stoplight (Yes she cut me off, then switched lanes about a 1/4 mile up the road, you can't make this stuff up) and she has about a 40 lb. dog going wild in her lap, looking out the window at me... Light turns green, dog stays in her lap, spazzing out, and through all that, she has to drive. Get to the next light, same exact thing. Dog is completely hyper, on her lap, and she thinks it's safe to drive like that? Also has 2 kids in car seats in the backseat, so not only endangering all those around her, but also her own kids if/when she causes an accident. I know people are extremely attached to their dogs, but c'mon. It's bad enough we have to play dodgeball from all the idiots on their phones while driving, so we simply do not need any other distractions behind the wheel. I see dogs on drivers laps a lot, and it really bugs me.
  13. I'd rather not see another MLB team in Canada. They had their chance in Montreal, it didn't work. Why would it be any different now? I'm sure the travel for MLB teams out of the country is a big hassle. Let them keep their Blue Jays, but if other teams are added, I'd rather see them here in the US.
  14. Ok, now I am convinced that you throw things like this into your posts just for reaction... There isn't any chance you truly believe we should lock up Mitchell on an extension. You are just playing us. On the off chance that you truly do believe what you typed, why on earth do you think we should consider extending a guy who can't go a day without getting seriously injured? Why? Huh, WHY? WHY?
  15. DVD purge: Went off track a bit and got away from the C movies... The Last Seduction - Interesting movie, it kept me occupied, but in the end, not really worth keeping. The Munsters - Trash, not funny, just not good. Gone. Killing Me Softly - Heather Graham being naked a few times... lol The plotlliine was good, it didn't have a stupid ending, so I think I'll keep this one around. Keeper. Back to the C's: Continental Divide - Belushi, not at his best. The movie is fine, but no need to see it again. Gone Cliffhanger - Stalone and big mountains. I enjoyed seeing it again, but no need to keep it around. Gone Collateral - This is a good one imo! I'm a pretty big fan of Tom Cruise, the actor, and usually like his movies. Keeper! Cloverfield - On the fence with this one... I liked it, found it interesting, and I like this kind of disaster/apocolypse type movie. Undecided still if I want it to occupy storage space or just dump it. Cocktail - Always liked this one. Keeper Coach Carter - Keeper
  16. All this Seigler talk, I just don't get it. He had his chance and failed. Just because he can play multiple positions doesn't, and shouldn't move him up in the pecking order for anything. The guy can't hit, he offers nothing. No way do I count on him for anything other than AAA emergency stuff.
  17. 2027 is the season that might not be...There will be baseball in 2026. 2026 is the perfect time to see what we have in Quero. Please Murphy, give William some extra rest days to keep him healthy for the playoffs, and don't be afraid to let the guy DH a little more. (of course, that creates a problem with Yelich since it appears his only role moving forward is at DH) We need to work Quero in next year to see if we think we need to extend Contreras or not. Problem is, I doubt we can afford a Contreras extension anyway, so 2026 is the perfect time to see what Quero can do on this level.
  18. Mariners’ general manager Justin Hollander told reporters on Thursday that bringing back Josh Naylor will be a priority during the offseason. President of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto and skipper Dan Wilson also noted their desire to bring Naylor back. Hollander also explained that Naylor seemed to enjoy his time with the Mariners, “Everything I got from him was that he really liked it here… Josh just got two months plus the playoffs of what Seattle is like as a sports town. … He’s a really good dude and I really do think he liked it here a lot.” The 28-year-old slugger is hitting the free agent market for the first time following an outstanding season in which he slashed .295/.353/.462 with 20 homers, 92 RBI and a career-high 30 stolen bases in 604 plate appearances between the M’s and Diamondbacks. He’ll be one of the most highly coveted players available on the market this winter. Source: Brent Stecker
  19. Muncy has been hurt a LOT the past two seasons. (73 games played in 2023 and 100 in 2024) For that reason, unless he comes cheap, REALLY cheap, I don't think he's worth the risk for what he will probably cost. I'd be shocked if the Dodgers don't bring him back, but more than likely they will be in on that 3B from Japan, so it's possible...
  20. Independent journalist Francys Romero reports that veteran right-hander Cody Ponce is interested in returning to Major League Baseball for the 2026 season. The 31-year-old hurler won the pitching triple crown in the Korea Baseball Organization in 2025, posting a scintillating 17-1 record, 1.89 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and a 252/41 K/BB ratio over 180 2/3 innings in 29 starts for the Hanwha Eagles. Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic has noted that the Giants are among the teams that are interested in the right-hander — who hasn’t pitched in a big league contest since 2021. Source: Francys Romero
  21. Curious, who is your #1? You can't like them equally, hell, I can't believe anyone can follow or care about two teams in MLB much less follow them closely. I just do not understand split loyalties. I'd go as far as to say that if you have more than one "favorite" team, you can't seriously be a real fan of either, but that is a discussion for another day. I am a Brewers fan, and dislike all the other teams equally, except for the Cubs and Cardinals, those two teams I have actual hate for. So which is it, had the Brewers played the Mariners in the World Series, who would you have rooted for?
  22. Has anyone checked out DMV yet? I'm expecting a little Office and/or Superstore flavor...
  23. Chicago PD has always been a great show. I do not watch their sister shows though, and find it annoying when they tie them all into one long episode once a year or every other year... Anyway, looking forward to Boston Blue (Blue Bloods spin-off) since I was a huge fan of Blue Bloods.
  24. You should know being a Cubs fan and all...
