  1. If the White Sox get involved, I expect another team to be in on the deal.
  2. It could also be that the Brewer Nation report just phrased it wrong. Maybe the Brewers really are looking at the contract, but didn't actually "request" it. Who knows, right?
  3. Bob Nightengale @BNightengale The #Angels were rebuffed by the #Rays in their pursuit of James Shields, offering speedy OF Peter Bourjos, but the Rays want more in return
  4. "I'm going to give you a guy who can win playoff games for you and throw in a guy who will lose them."
  5. I pretty much agree with all of this, particularly the bolded. So many people seem to want to just trade anybody who may be worth something. In the meantime, a bunch of those guys are young and inexpensive and what we'd get back for them would likely be very similar players. I'd like to keep Hart, but I can understand the benefits of trading him.
  6. Sure, there's a chance. If they aren't offered a trade package that they think is acceptable, they'll stand pat.
  7. Plus an extra year and $29 million.
  8. Cue the people complaining, "Why wasn't DM talking to the Dodgers?"
  9. Time to lock it up.
  10. His momentum was taking him towards center field - he didn't have time to get under the ball to set himself. That and the fact that there was no way he was going to throw the runner out resulted in him just heaving it as hard as he could and hope for the best.
  11. Next I expect to hear some anonymous GM spin it by saying that Greinke is too mentally unstable to handle in-season contract discussions, so teams won't want to give up any top prospects for him.
  12. It just all depends on what the other teams are willing to give up. So many fans think DM is just a dummy who hasn't talked to any other GM's yet, thinks the Brewers still have a realistic shot at the playoffs, and will just ask for an average MLB-ready player or two for Greinke. While I obviously have no insight as to what goes on in the front office, I'll guarantee he diagrammed all sorts of scenarios weeks and weeks ago and has certainly decided it's time to trade Greinke if he won't re-sign. As for what he'll get for Greinke, who knows, but I'm sure he's going for the gold. Trading partners might only offer him silver or bronze, but he won't settle for that unless he has to.
  13. So the players should stop trying? I've been disappointed by this season, too, but I appreciate that the guys on the team seem to play their butts off to the end just about every game.
  14. Easily. I didn't even need a replay to tell me that. But hey, it's a pitch-out so it's an auto-out, right?
  15. Yeah, I think you might be right. I shouldn't post so early in the morning.
  16. 2011 offense: 4.45 runs/g 2012 offense: 4.41 runs/g
  17. I tried Second Life once. I ran around aimlessly while the environments took forever to load. Eventually I wandered into some house where it seemed that a females-only party was going on. I ended up behind the turntable and DJ'ed for a minute. Then I scolded myself for playing that game for more than 5 minutes and uninstalled it.
