  1. Let’s go Brewers!! Untuck em! Take the extra base. Put on the hit and run up 12. we may have struggled against the Dodgers, but we can certainly beat up our little brother on the basepaths. i was just thinking about Ben Sheets 18k performance today. Would love to see Miz break out 19 today in the shadows.
  2. You’d have Freddy behind Henderson? I generally got sick of “big game Freddy” as well, but he was clutch for us last year and would be the only starter on our roster with sustained success at this point. if we’re throwing AAAA players like Sproat and Gasser, we’d definitely have room for Freddy. i get your point though. If Jett can take over and free us from the Hamilton/Rengifo experiment… that would help.
  3. Who says no? Sure looks like Caleb isn’t going to be a fit in Boston. Hard to see Gasser part of our plan here. change of scenery swap for both teams? Maybe Durbin comes back, figures it out at AAA, and then gets comfortable here again like he did last year? I know we have Jett and Pratt on the way, but with Jett’s versatility, he might be needed to jump start in the outfield. Young players with a bat that can play will find time here. Durbin might have been a flash in the pan last year (thanks for getting us Harrison), but given his success here, I’d be for going him another shot.
  4. You are probably right. And that might be our fate… so that leaves us with 2 choices. be content with making the playoffs but never really making noise (Packers) or be willing to have a down season here/there to load up and “go for it” every so often. guessing our cheap owner will stick with #1 so he/ownership can pocket $50 million whenever we host 5 playoff games. this is a fun summer team, but it’s going to take a Sabathia/Greinke type move on top of a strong core to probably make the WS. Even then, there is no guarantee (see the Padres the past few years)
  5. I think we still have a chance, but this shows you just how important the number one seed is. Last year was pretty optimal with LA getting the third seed… unfortunately Philadelphia just crapped the bed. I could see a scenario this year where we are the number one seat. The Braves are number two and the Dodgers are number three.. maybe Atlanta gets lucky and knocked off the Dodgers in the divisional round. I’m sure the Braves would be tough, but they are not the Dodgers.
  6. Agreed. Can’t be worse. can we send Gasser or Sproat to Boston for Durbin? I know Durbin is playing awful this year, but he seemed to be developing into a nice player here.
  7. Excellent. Sproat next please. is there anyone that wouldn’t “undo” the Freddy trade right now? At the time, we didn’t know that Woody & QP would be injured, but we could sure use Freddy right now.
  8. Why punt when we have better options? Personally, I think the idea of punting is dumb when we can move people up and down on the shuttle. and if we’re going to punt, send the fringe MLB players down after their start. Gasser and Sproat are a waste of a roster spot over the next 4 games. If our bullpen is getting taxed, might be nice to bring someone up who can contribute. Arnold has done a phenomenal job bringing in talent… but we have approaching 10 guys on our 26 who just don’t meaningfully contribute frelick and Yelich are struggling, but they have a solid mlb track record from other seasons. hamilton, wood, rengifo, gasser, Perkins, Sproat no so much. add that to guys like Ortiz, Sanchez, abd Hall that are normally the 25/26th men on the roster
  9. I see no reason Sproat and Gasser belong on our MLB roster other than we are desperate for starters due to the Woody and Priester injuries. Crow and Patrick have both made the most of their opportunities. Winning organizations give folks a chance, but there is a time to cut bait. there is a reason that Sproat and Gasser were the second/third piece when they were traded here.
  10. Having watched that Yamamoto game in person last year, I’m itching for some revenge. No mercy or baserunning errors today
  11. Having woody back would be awesome, but as much as I love the guy, I wonder if he’s pitched his last game as a brewer? That injury looked really bad.
  12. I don’t disagree. Miz, Harrison, Patrick is pretty formidable in the playoffs, but keeping Patrick in his current role would be beneficial. that said, pretty tough to win if you can’t score. Our bottom half offense looks pretty rough right now.
  13. Yes please. I can’t imagine what it would cost for Witt though. Elite SS, Age 25, signed through 2034. I think you could make an argument that he’s the most valuable player (based on age, contract, performance) in the league right now. give he’s elite and signed for the next decade, no idea why Kansas City would want to trade him, but I’d imagine it would be Made, a couple top 100 prospects to get him?
  14. This. I used a bit of hyperbole with his age, but right now Gasser looks like a AAAA player to me. Patrick has been awesome for us out of the bullpen, but I’m going to be frustrated if we continue to throw Gasser and Sproat as starters while keeping Patrick in the bullpen.
  15. Yikes… after an exciting first inning, the in-game chat has gone cold as well
  16. So I’ll ask again… if Patrick stays and continues to excel out of the bullpen, who are our key 5 in the starting rotation? miz, Harrison… then Henderson, Sproat, ?
  17. I get he’s our 7th or so starter right now… but ouch. A promising start went sideways quickly. 4 hits, 4 runs, 3 walks, 4 innings will not play.
  18. We’re in business again. Time for Vaughn to make them pay
  19. Encouraging early going from Gasser. hamilton no bueno time for Jackson to get smokin’ Great battling from Frelick
