    I posted this in the Major League forum, but didn't see it in here. Nevertheless, very funny and a good read.

    From theonion.com:C.C. Sabathia, Prince Fielder Keep Imagining Each Other As Giant Talking Hot Dog, Hamburger (cut back "whole article" quote and made link more prominent --1992)

    I thought it was funny a few weeks ago at Wrigley a Cubs fan had a sign that stated: "Can't wait til October" Sure the Cubs have a very good chance to get in the playoffs, but it seems like all their fans think they are shoe-ins.

    I think an absolute must is getting 1 of the first two games in the series. I don't like the matchups for the first two, but after that I think we will be fine.

    I wish I knew that before I sent it June 6th. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif Nevertheless, I sent it with a hand written letter, so if that wasn't good enough, then so be it. Any idea how long it took for him to receive it? I'm glad I got braun right after he was called up, because I probably wouldn't have gotten him at all.

    Brewers live just confirmed this a little while ago.

    I thought about that as well, but it says in the description that it is sponsored by two companies. So, based on that, I would assume these are new bobbleheads.

    Any idea what Yovani's success rate is? I wonder what players do with stuff they don't sign? Throw it away?

    I'm still waiting for the 8x10 I sent last year. I don't think I will ever see that photo again. I know how you feel. I sent a mlb baseball to prince last september and have yet to see it. I got a bad feeling on that one. I also sent one to Yovani right after his injury this year and I hope I get that one back.

    How much are these things worth? (obviously, the better he gets the higher it goes) Thanks
  11. WisconsinSportsRule
    PM sent. Edit: Payment sent via paypal Thanks

    I would like to throw my hat in the ring as well who wants one. Thanks
  13. WisconsinSportsRule
    I can't tell anyone how excited I am to get CC. This was huge for this franchise, go out and make a splash although it cost us LaPorta. Thanks to DM for going through on this one. GO BREWERS!!!

    That's the thing - I don't want to pay ANY pitcher $20 mil a year for his decline phase. I don't want to roll the dice on this year alone either. We've got a window no shorter than this year and the next 3. If we re-sign Sheets or Sabathia, I'd rather offer a ludicrous premium in the hopes that one of them might take a shorter extention. I'd pay $25 mil a year for 3 years much more readily than $20 mil for 5 or 6. I don't think either would be interested in that kind of extention though, because they can get a 6 year deal from somebody. I can't trust the org after the Linebrink deal last year. I'm worried Melvin has somehow totally missed the fact that NOBODY gives up multiple premium prospects for rentals or expensive vets anymore. EVERYBODY values cost-controlled talent correctly now, even the Yankees. You absolutely hit the nail on the head with that paragraph. If we do trade for CC, I will fear what we will have to give up. I got a bad feeling that DM will get desperate like last year and think this is the only year we can contend. (which may be true, but unlikely) If we include Hardy in this deal, I will be furious. There's a difference between giving up prospects and proven major league talent. Hardy has proven that he can be a great infielder and is starting to heat up. Not only would giving him up be terrible, the platoon that would replace him would cause more trouble than ever. I don't want to see Counsell or Hall starting everyday.

    I am glad someone mentioned this. I think he had a few good starts, then goes back down to the minors and goes on the DL. Why is he such a hot commodity?
  16. WisconsinSportsRule
    Is anyone else concerned about Seth Lintz not signing yet? There was a report, but that must have been inaccurate. I would hate to see a 2nd rounder go unsigned.
  17. WisconsinSportsRule
    I don't have a problem with Gabe starting at all, but as davego said, cameron needs to be in the 8th inning and beyond for defensive purposes.
  18. WisconsinSportsRule
    Ned Yost can pack his bags tonight. It's too bad that the Brewers brass doesn't have the intestinal fortitude to fire him. Why would you pull Villy you idiot? This team will never make it to the playoffs with this idiot as manager.

    Fielder-$40 Braun-$50 Sheets-$15 Thank you, I was hoping someone would respond.
  20. WisconsinSportsRule
    I have a few cards that I am not sure what they are worth. I have checked ebay but I would like to know if someone knows the beckett value. 2007 Bowman's Best Prince Fielder auto 2007 Bowman's Best Ryan Braun auto 2000 SP top prospects Ben Sheets auto (with huntsville stars) Thank you

    I am not saying we should fire him, but rather he should challenge these guys. I guess his laid back approach in not so rosy times doesn't sit well with me.
  22. WisconsinSportsRule
    It appears as though they're are many people to blame for the crew's recent hitting woes, and there has been no mention of Skaalen. Skaalen's so called laid back approach may have to go by the wayside. It seems as though he should challenge these guys a little more. He gets lots of credit when the crew is hitting well, but he's not mentioned when there's blame to be spread around.

    Self-destruct in 3..............2..............1................ Another heartbreaker.
  24. WisconsinSportsRule
    Does anyone actually have updated rosters for '05? I would really like to get my updated.
  25. WisconsinSportsRule
    I was going to start a Gabe Kapler appreication thread a few days ago, but splitter beat me to it. This guy has helped us tremendously this year.
