  1. $25 million over 5 years? In a second. $5 million per is a little more than what you would expect to pay for a veteran #3 which is the floor for Sheets. Yes injuries are a concern, but Sheets is close to being a top pitcher, not necesarily of the HOF Prior variety, but instead at the Colon level. Take into account that unless the Brewers are bought buy a baseball loving George Soros type they are never goingto spend 8 figures on any player. So aquiring a true #1 can only happen internally. And to keep one the Brewers are going to have to take on some type of risk. Yes there is an injury risk, but all pitchers are injury risks. The problem with a pitcher getting injured is hardly ever the money, its the fact that there aren't enough really good pitchers around. No matter the team, if a top pitcehr misses a season they are going to have serious problems. So with Ben, you insure the last three years since you the Brewers can pay an injured sheets earlier when the payroll wouldn't be needed for a push like it maybe latter. (Of course, the current leadership group would insure the first three years thinking that the last two will be someone else's problem.)
  2. Good thing Santos was brought up--it didn't seem like the Brewers without a pitcher having a double digit ERA.
  3. Less about Mr. Santos than the situation they threw him in.
  4. Mr. Santos-- Welcome! Here you can pitcht to Puljos with a man on second--I'm sure all will be OK!
  5. So whens the replace Sheets call going to go up now?
  6. Anyone who is watching, is Saenz tiring? Seems to be allowing more contact so was wondering if he is losing velocity.
  7. Bennett hit into a DP--lucky the game didn't end there. Just because Helms got a hit doesn't mean it wasn't stupid. Yost burned a player for no reason in a game that easily could have gone extra innings.
  8. Ughh, Yost Bennet not a good hitter. Already caught 9 innings after 15 yesterday---pull him PH for Brooks?!!!? With Helms?!!!??!?
  9. Well sure Kinney put in a good start, but did he get the win? I don't think so! He just doesn't have the Franklinatude to allow the Brewers to score more runs than the Cardinals.
  10. Well LaRussa decided to give the Brewers a chance by having Womack PH. Edit: Thanks Tony!
  11. Bennett is available supposedly. And Burba probably could go one.
  12. Why are you thinking of bringing in Kieshnick?
  13. Counsell has a robust .143 home BA.
  14. If only he had a 640 OPS and played out of position. Then Ginter couldbat 2nd!
  15. There he goes, striking out Rolen....
  16. You do realize that Matheny bats 8th? I mean Kinney can strike out Puljos, but Matheny might as well be intenionally walked by anyone in a Brewer uniform.
  17. Is Bennet Kinney's catcher? You would think after 15 innings yesterday he'd get some time off.
  18. Yeah if only Kinney gets lit up! Then we can focus our hopes on soft tossing lefties who can't strike people out!
  19. Injury--Clark fouled ball off his foot
  20. Ahhh--the Brenly death watch is back on!
  21. Comeon--he has a really nice number flow--35 hits, 32 Runs, 31 earned runs and 14 walks in 31.2 innings.
  22. Hey, somone might have thought Capuano was coming in....
  23. When you hit in front of any great hitter, (Bonds, Puljos, Ginter) you don't swing at the first pitch.
