  1. Gasser and Payamps didn't have anything to do with the Hader trade did they? Was Ruiz part of that deal?
  2. Ummm yeah, but he also played like absolute trash for two years during that time, so there's that. Can you say you were never one of those people?
  3. ...and Luis Lara. I have brought up this concern recently, but no one really agrees with me. There just aren't a lot of guys little in stature that go on to have big MLB careers. I mean, Altuve is the obvious exception. Robert Moore was another guy who was just little. He's been traded, so I haven't followed him this year.
  4. Where did I say that the Brewers are horribly run/Brewers front office sucks? Where did I say the Brewers are incompetent? Speaking of Hyperbole? Please. He's had 16 total at bats in the last 9 games. All I am asking is, what is the plan with Jackson Chourio? What is he getting by riding the bench? We obviously disagree, so there is no need for further comment on my part.
  5. Ok, so you think that what they are doing with him is ok? Do you really think that having him ride the bench is the best thing for him and the team? I don't care what his pace is for PA, he is rotting on the bench when he should be playing. You are fine with that? I sometimes think that people just tow that company line no matter what, and only look for excuses when it comes to this team. Chourio needs to be getting at bats someplace, not riding the bench. Hopefully, they are starting to figure out that Ortiz needs to play, now if they can just figure out a plan for Chourio.
  6. What does he need rest for? Kid needs to play, if not with the Brewers, then with Nashville. He needs at bats, this is getting ridiculous.
  7. I don't think Robert has even come close to his hype. Add in the fact he is injury prone, and what is the real benefit to adding him if it costs us the farm. If it were a reasonable ask, ok, I'd listen, but to be honest, I'm just not that interested in guys who are hurt a lot to add to our Yelich injury issues.
  8. Next up for me on Tuesday is the new Planet of the Apes flick. I've liked them all so far, so it's a must see for me.
  9. ? Can you link us? I don't see the thread you are speaking of.
  10. He was my favorite Brewers player as a kid in the 70's...
  11. So you think that the guy we pinch hit for a bunch of times (Chourio) will enter the game late for someone else? Why would we let Chourio enter the game late when that is when we always sub for him when he starts? If this is the case, then I am pretty confused.
  12. Maybe Murphy is starting crappy vets based on Counsell's recomendations from the Cubs dugout.
  13. Counsell played the crappy vets, Murphy plays the crappy vets. We should have known they would be the same exact manager in a lot of ways. Need a series win vs the Cards, which means we need 3 of 4. I'd probably settle for a split, but don't want to...
  14. Can't read it without being a member...
  15. Blue Chips - Always really liked this movie, and sends a good message about the crookedness of college basketball and college sports in general. Keeper! The Blue Lagoon - I have a soft spot for this movie. Just a great watch and happy to learn that the 14 year old Brooke Shields was not nude in this movie, but instead, they had a 32 year old stunt double fill in for the nakedness. lol Keeper. Blair Witch Project - This was scary as hell in the theater back in the day. Add to the mystery that a lot of people thought this was actually real footage from the missing filmmakers at the time...(pre internet boom, so it was easy to make people believe stuff) Anyway, keeping it for nostalgia's sake, but it was fun to watch again.
  16. All true, however, we are at the point that we know, WE ABSOLUTELY KNOW, that Yelich is going to hit the IL 1-3 times a year. We still don't seem to have a true offensive plan outside of watch the top free agents sign in the off season, then pick over the scraps and hope. I get it, it's what we do, but if our offense rides on the back of a guy like Yelich, who simply can't be counted on for a complete season, then we have what we have now. I mean, he can go down for 3 weeks to a month at anytime, now, next week, or right before a playoff run. Our offense and it's success was going to depend on our young guys, and so far, that hasn't worked. Thank God for Contreras!
  17. I'm sure most don't appreciate it at all. Also, changing the batting order every game is also a distraction, plug him into a regular defensive position, and place in the line-up and let him play if we are set on keeping him up.
  18. This! And for God's sake, stop pinch hitting him for guys who are more than likely going to suck even worse than he is right now... Love his future, but his present isn't quite ready yet. IMO
  19. Ok, but he never lit AAA on fire. He could have used some more refining there, and I'm not sure that can be argued. Yeah, we paid him the money, but some more time in AAA can and would do him well. Probably not possible with our depleted outfield, but if they sent him down at their first opportunity, I'd be fine with it.
  20. Meh, we'll have to agree to disagree on your point of the day before never being a factor on the following day's line-up. You can't tell me that today was a planned off day for Ortiz. He hasn't played enough to have a scheduled off day.
  21. It feels like Contreras is ALWAYS on base. Love it!
