    Reading him WAS the tight move!

    He's that bad, but he's Donnie Baseball.

    It's already a problem. People using religion to spread hatred or hiding behind religion as a way to try to get me to accept their hatred as a "belief" is the biggest reason why guys like Denson have had to live in fear. Homosexuals have been beaten, tormented, murdered, scorned, psychologically frayed, disowned, and driven to suicide because people still somehow believe that being attracted to and loving someone of the opposite sex is "evil," all in the name of religion. I mean, someone in this thread equated being gay to being a murder. That's insane. We don't need a "wide range of opinions" when one of those opinions is hatred. And those who say, "He should just concentrate on baseball," or "I don't know why he can't just keep this to himself," are missing the point entirely.

    Occam's Razor would say a crippling thumb injury would be the primary reason for Braun's decline.

    I can count on one hand the number of teams in the major U.S. professional sports that an aspiring GM or head coaching candidate (read: one with no previous experience in the role) would consider rejecting because of a problem with the organization. The Brewers are nowhere close to being on that list. I mean, you really think a guy who has been dreaming of GM job would say, "What? Doug Melvin is still going to be in the organization? Screw that. PASS."

    It's not convenient. It literally is far and away the primary reason that Braun is not as good as he was in his MVP years. His dropoff in production correlates perfectly with the thumb injury. And from hearing it described by him and doctors, it sounds horrible. I believe there's a moment he thinks it happened, but I can't recall when/what it was (got hit on it or got jammed really badly on a pitch or something). As to the disbelief that a thumb injury can be so bad to cause such a dropoff in production yet the player is still well enough to play, think of it another way: Braun is that good of a player that he has been able to tough it out and still be serviceable, even at his worst. Additionally, some of his lower numbers can be attributed to overall drops in offense in MLB. I know people want to say, "I KNEW IT! NO MORE PED'S SO NOW HE'S NOT SUPERMAN!" Sure, maybe the PED's helped, I don't know, but after learning about the injury and watching him play prior to the cryo-procedure, it couldn't be more obvious that his thumb has been a huge problem.

    I don't feel that it would be insulting to ask him when the season is over. I feel that it would be insulting to ask him to start coaching right now.

    Fielder didn't really drop off quickly. In his first year in DET, he hit .313/.412/.528/.940. 4th best OPS and OPS+ in the AL. The following year, 2013, was his drop off year: .279/.362/.457/.819, but his OPS+ was still 122, which is good. I'm not sure when the MLB-wide decline in offense began. Was it that season? 2014 was a lost season because of his neck problem. And then, of course, he's doing well this year.

    That would be incredibly insulting. I would think Lohse would rather just be released and try to get signed by another team.

    But you can't take away the end of game component, as the rules specifically include it.

    None of it matters because the D-backs were awarded the win based on gritty, hard-nosed battling.

    It's silly to be hard on the guy. He pitched well in his tenure with the Brewers except for this season and by the looks of it, was a very popular teammate. Athletes age.
  19. dlk9s
    Never mind, they're tremendous. Bring him to Milwaukee.
  20. dlk9s
    But how are his bat flips?
  21. dlk9s
    So the Padres' GM thinks the team can still make the playoffs. http://i.imgur.com/RaTdtfq.gif

    He clearly has a cornea scar that is hurting his night vision.
  23. dlk9s
    He looks like the Fourth Doctor in his retirement years.

    Sausage Race comments DO belong here, though.
