  1. a) The window was clearly still open this year, though not as wide as last year. Injuries and unexpected poor performances derailed things. b) Since when has A-Ram been "no offense?" It's July now, not April.
  2. Of course none of us know what the Marlins would want for Ramirez. If all they wanted was some nobody prospect and they were going to pay a bunch of his salary then sure, most of us would want to make the trade. But we have a feeling they will value him like the player he was a few years ago and would want a lot for him. Hell, I wouldn't want him if all the Brewers had to do was pay his salary.
  3. Winkie's
  4. Every runner does advance two bases. Morgan was on first base when Ramirez hit his double.
  5. He struck him out, but I wouldn't say he "owned" him. Braun ripped the crap out of one, but it was unfortunately foul. Looked like a run-of-the-mill strikeout to me. Happens.
  6. But if we remove the human element, Skynet will eventually become self-aware and take over the world.
  7. I thought I was having a nice father/son moment. I'm currently watching the HOF induction ceremony during the part where they introduce all the past inductees. Paul Molitor was introduced just as my 3-year old sat in my lap. I told him that Molitor was on the Brewers and that he was my favorite player when I was a little boy. He was looking at the TV and I started thinking that we would start talking about baseball or something. Then he jumps off my lap and runs away yelling, "Coyote! Coyote!" http://i.imgur.com/8f5Dl.gif

  9. GM's know who and what Greinke is. One more start won't change anything. They're all just posturing to try to lower his trade value.
  10. The way Hanley has been playing the last two seasons, there is no way I would want to commit $17-$19 million to him per year for several years, and that's after paying him $33 million for the next two.
  11. Yes. You've said that. Many times.
  12. Maybe if the price is low, but it would have to be pretty low. He's due $31.5 million over the next two seasons, he has sharply declined over the last two seasons, and he's a head case.
  13. Two pitches before the homer, the "Scout" thing on MLB Gameday said, "That was pitch number 45 for Marco Estrada; his effectiveness may start slipping, as he holds opposing hitters to a .161 average in the first 45 pitches but they hit .291 off him after that."
  14. For me, I'm torn. I really want Greinke to remain a Brewer, but I'm nervous about paying him too much (like I would any pitcher). I want to them make a playoff push with him, but I'm also not confident it's possible and want to get something for him in a trade. I think I've decided to just not worry about it and hope for the best. What will be, will be. Go Brewers.
  15. "seem to be" None of us have any idea what has been going on in the front office.
  16. I'm guessing it's (appropriately) a competitive balance thing. Comp picks give the rich teams even more of an advantage.

  18. Time to deal the competitive balance pick for Profar!
  19. Round B: Pick 6: Detroit Pick 5: Milwaukee Pick 4: Oakland Pick 3: Colorado Pick 2: Cleveland Pick 1: San Diego Projected be somewhere in the range of picks 70-75.
  20. At least Detroit isn't eligible for the first round of competitive balance picks.
  21. I've heard stuff like this before. I'm curious, though, is it really that big a difference? If the thought is that there is less of a chance to tweak something like he did Tuesday night, then I can definitely buy that, but if it's just general "wear and tear" that is the concern, I don't quite get it. I mean, sure, a LF has to run around more than a 1B, but it's not THAT much running.
  22. By the way, how much would BF.net be melting down if the Brewers failed to score there with runners on 1st and 3rd and no outs?
  23. I've definitely noticed that this year. They play their asses off. I respect that to no end.
