Yeah, Heyward coming in 29th or whatever it was was pretty bad. -
The "actual value of a player to his team" is the worst part of the rules because it creates the worst interpretations of what "most valuable" means. It creates confusion. On the one hand, people will say a guy is more "valuable" than someone else if his team makes the playoffs because, after all, without him, they wouldn't make it. On the other hand, it makes some people believe that a guy on, say, good team with 88 wins is more valuable than a powerhouse team with 102 wins because, heck, the powerhouse team would've still been good without the player. Relative value to a team should not be considered. Each player should be looked at simply for what he did that season, regardless of team.

I'll set the O/U for Braun first place votes at 3. Place your bets!
-
Cabrera will win the AL MVP and I don't think it will be particularly close. ZOMG RBI! ZOMG PLAYOFFS!
-
I also think the only finalist Braun might finish ahead of is Headley.

The argument that the Giants wouldn't have won the World Series without Posey is just silly. OF COURSE they wouldn't have won (or would have at least had a REALLY hard time winning) without their MVP finalist. If you took an MVP-caliber player off of any team, they'd be worse. I still hate it when people take "Most Valuable Player" to mean "Most Valuable Player to His Specific Team" instead of "Most Valuable Player in the League" or perhaps just "Best Player."

I think the problem is more the terrible signings in the first place than this trade. The Marlins showed no baseball savvy at all in throwing money at all those guys. It exploded in their face the same year they opened the green screen stadium and now they are trying to fix their mistake. The trade in and of itself is ok; the problem is that it shines a line on management's incompetence.

Let's send Braunie down on mission to bring Stanton back with him.

monty57 dropping a little econ on BF.net.

I'd go for Soria.

Considering the key word there is "possibly," then no, it wouldn't be a waste.

As long as the extension isn't for some insane duration, I'm not particularly worried about a significant dropoff in skill. I mean, Corey might not be as good three years from now, but I wouldn't predict him falling off a cliff. I'm all for extending guys who enjoy playing in Milwaukee as long as the contract is reasonable.

It's Election Day. Would you vote for or against the DH?
dlk9s replied to jjkoestler's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I think I lean slightly toward the "pro-DH" side, but overall, I don't care. -
Say what you want about Ishikawa, but he did an admirable job as a backup 1B this year.

Let's just forget the blue/green Yankees logo years. Please.

If those injuries are affecting his production, I hope he keeps getting them.

Nerdy response: they're actually opposites on the color wheel, which is supposed to mean a perfect pairing of colors. Link. Lots of movie posters in recent years have gone with some variation of a blue/orange color scheme... almost to the point of epidemic. Here are a bunch of examples of blue/orange movie posters: http://www.slashfilm.com/orangeblue-contrast-in-movie-posters/ Not sure why people think that's a bad combo. It's great if it's done properly (correct shades, design, etc.).

I really hope not. This franchise lives in the past enough. It's not living in the past. It's wanting to go back to one of the greatest logos in the history of sports.

Anyone else know about this? (4-DVD set of legendary Brewers games)
dlk9s replied to TURBO's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Also, one indicator that your team has no history of winning: there are only a handful of big games, they can all be easily identified without even naming the year, and one was in a series loss. -

I might have to get this. My DVR erased the Game 5 NLDS win before I put it on DVD.
