  1. Anyone interested in trading Carlos Gomez for JJ Hardy? (seriously!) I wonder if we have any spare parts that Baltimore would take
  2. If the trade falls through I feel like we'll be reliving a scene from "The Waterboy".... oh no we suck again! There is absolutely no doubt that the way to win in MLB is having elite pitching. None of the four players we are rumored to be trading has the star power of Greinke. Are we a player away? Likely not, but adding the elite blue chip pitchers is much harder than adding reinforcements like solid (no-stick) defensive players. Defensive players are a dime a dozen and I have faith that Melvin can acquire a few to make 2-1 leads stick behind Marcum and Greinke
  3. Wow, if Melvin acquires Greinke, i will officially get off his case... anyone left on the FA market that we could acquire for SS or CF?
  4. I think a seven year deal is crazy.... but i wonder the reaction for Lee if the Brewers offered 7/140 with deferred money and went truly "all-in" in Fielder's last year next year
  5. I think in this era, speed is overrated. I know the saying goes, a singles hitter with good speed becomes a doubles hitter... i still don't understand the hype or why a player like Crawford is worth $20M per (for 6-7 years), but Corey Hart is available for half the price for half the years
  6. Coming off a career year (.851 OPS), career (.781 OPS)... he seems like a good fit to be a .275/.360/.440/.800 guy, but I don't understand how that is worth anything like 6/120 To be fair, i haven't heard any contract proposals thrown out there, but they keep talking about him in the neighborhood of Cliff Lee who I'm assuming will get something in the neighborhood of 6/120
  7. Garza is controlled for three seasons. I'd do Gamel/Jeffress/Cain if that is what it took for Garza
  8. if the Braves are that desperate to get Gomez, maybe they'll add Heyward as a throw-in
  9. Whoa Solvd! Greinke for Gomez! Get it done Doug! Royals might even throw in a couple top prospects (/blue)
  10. Where can I find defensive stats and Wins Above Replacement level for MLB players for the 2010 season. Thanks much!
  11. I'm not even sure that he'd get a 5/100 offer right now. Prince (because of our fan base and out potential to be a solid team next year with 1 more good arm) is worth more to the Brewers than other teams. a .275/.375/.525/.900 line makes him extremely valuable a .260/.370/.470/.840 line, valuable, but not the kind of player and a non-premium position that you want to pay $20M per Given the Dunn deal (4/56)... i'd offer Prince 20/22/24/18/16 ... if he thinks he can do better than 5/100, good luck to him
  12. I disagree here... If he has a solid first half (say 10-3 with a 3.25 ERA).... his price tag just went WAY up, and he's only a few months from his walk yearIf we want to sign him to an extension, the time is now (pre-spring training). It is a gamble, but signing a FA is a gamble as well I tossed out a 4/40 number, others have mentioned 4/60... much like Braun's deal, he has made very little $$$ so far, and our chance to get him to sign at/below market value is before he can bank some dough in his #2 and #3 arby years. If we give him $5-6 mil this year, and he knows he's going to get (minimum $8-10M in 2012), our leverage goes way down next offseason If he signs now... he is risking giving up 5/90 on the open market perhaps... but if he regresses or gets hurt, he is leaving 40-50M on the table with us. Given he has made very little (career wise)... passing up $40M for a chance at $90-100M would be stupid
  13. Why so high? if he was under $1M last season.... probably looking at $5M this season and maybe $8-10M next season... You really think Years 3-4 are worth $45 million?
  14. I agree.... go for Broke. Maybe this sends a message to Prince. If we go far in 2011, we can always pull a Marlins style firesale and reload
  15. two seasons of ERA below 3.65 ... four seasons of WHIP below 1.25 If we could acquire Matt Garza, i'd be thrilled about 2011
  16. What are the chances that a 4/40 contract gets it done (maybe an option for a 5th year) $5M $8M $11M $14M Option for 5th Year at $16M with 2 million buyout Given he's only earned $1.6M to this point, i'd think that would be pretty favorable... 4/40 is a significant number for the Crew, but probably way cheaper than we could acquire a #2/3 type on the FA market
  17. if Derek Jeter is worth 3/51 + an option year....
  18. Huge AB here for Thome in the 7th
  19. Good 3 Evil 0 Top of 6th! Life is good. Liriano looks solid despite the early jam
  20. http://news.yahoo.com/vid...-22306325#video=22313285 Weather balloon?
  21. Make your predictions here: Twins over Yankees in 5 Rangers over Rays in 4 Giants over Braves in 4 Philly over Reds in 4 Twins over Rangers in 6 Philly over Giants in 5 Philly over Twins in 6
  22. This is a great day for Wisconsin.... next up, time to axe Mr. No Pitching and get a real GM
  23. Can't spell WIN without TWINS... errr, or am I mixing that up after a few beers. I think the Twins have a WIN in them. Carry on
  24. One month out... a few divisional races left to be decided. Who do you have getting into the postseason? Texas @ New York NY Wins 3-1 TB @ Minnesota MIN Wins 3-2 (Minny finally wins a playoff series in avoiding Yanks Minnesota @ New York NY Wins 4-2 San Fran @ Cinci CIN wins Dusty Bowl 3-1 San Diego @ Atl SD wins 3-1 San Diego @ Cinci CIN wins 4-1 New York 4 Cinci 1 World Series
