  1. The point is that McClung really is the definition of a replacement level pitcher. Yeah I'd want him over Garland at his price but he's still not exactly a good 5th starter.
  2. Johnson and Arizona look to be through since Arizona turned down him at $8m for one season. Not quite sure why they did that given that his 300th win would mean big bucks for the DBacks in addition to him still being a good pitcher. At $10m or less for one season he is a really good buy.
  3. All away games are taxed in the state they are played in. So its on only half the games. So you're talking maybe $100-$200k, not enough to really worry about unless the Brewers do something much more significant.
  4. Almost meaningless since most states tax baseball players for games played there anyway.
  5. Because there is a a non zero cost in making an offer. Making a non-competitive offer just wastes everbody's time
  6. McClung's projected FIP: 4.92 mostly in relief
  7. Is the video going through the subwoofer too?
  8. Bill James's projected FIPs for Suppan, Garland, Washburn, and Millwood: Suppan: 4.86 Garland: 4.74 Washburn 4.68 Millwood: 4.05
  9. But Fielder is only under contract for 3 years and almost certainly not going to sign an extension, especially not one below market value. So either you give up talent and a lot of money for Fielder for three years or just a lot of money for three years for one of those.
  10. Isn't Lamb under coontract? I never got a full explanation of his signing worked. When the Brewers picked him up do they still keep his rights because he was still being paid by the Twins for next season? That said the Brewers could keep both Branyan and Lamb but that won't be decided upon until they exhaust getting a fulltime 3B.
  11. Maybe. It all depends on what type of inputs you have on the receiver. You likely have a R/L speaker input but that wont get you surround sound. For that you'll need some sort of digital input. And any DVD player will do, just depends on how the remotes react and how many you want around.
  12. Instead of giving all that up for Jenks, I'd rather see what it would take to get Dotel.
  13. Because even the Cubs have a budget? They likely can't afford Wood, Peavy and Dempster.
  14. Except that there still are Giambi, Dunn, Burrell, Abreu, Ibanez, Ramirez, and Floyd out there.
  15. The Yankees can pay Sabathia with Pavano's and Pettite's salary slots and they still have Giambi and Mussina money.
  16. I'd rather get Millwood out of Texas or give up next to nothing to get Washburn for a year.
  17. There is a chance that Sabathia does become the first $200m pitcher. Without the Mets and BoSox to bid him to far up I don't think it will happen, but 8 yrs/$200m isn't beyond imagining.
  18. Unless the Brewers were moving Hart, Swisher just doesn't fit here. He really isn't a CFer. That said this is exactly why the trade of Inman was looked down upon. Not that Inman was going to set Milwaukee on fire but that he was sold cheap to San Diego.
  19. Yep compared to what will likely happen in the NL MVP vote, the CY Youngs have been good.
  20. Part of it to me is that I right now have no clue how to judge Southern League numbers. Four years ago if a player hit as well as Salome did in Huntsville I'd fell like the Brewers have a superstar. But because everyone was hitting in Huntsville with ridiculous BABIP (Salome .401, Gamel .392, Escobar .375, Braun for example was at .324 in 2006) I have no idea how to judge them.
  21. The Dodgers have huge contracts coming off though. Furcal, Kent, Penny, Lowell and Nomar. And then more next year with Schmidt and Jones.
  22. Assuming they both have decent BABIP so their lines look to be able to be maintained, player B. The higher BA will lead to more runs, but its a really a fourth order or lower concern.
  23. Any 3B needs to actually improve on a Branyan/Lamb/Hall platoon. Atkins doesn't.
  24. Hoffman's HR rate exploded last season. He could very well be done.
