  1. Out of curiosity, do you know this for a fact? Like, there's pretty much no way that a player and his agent would research every stat, every comparison, and every analysis and then pick the most positive things to use at the hearing? I would be shocked if, say, Lucroy was going to an arby hearing this week and he didn't have that Fangraphs piece printed in triplicate. But maybe I'm being totally naive.
  2. Catchers in general are below average hitters. He has been a little worse than the average NL catcher hitting but not by much. AVG / OBP / SLG / OPS AL 0.238/0.305/0.391/0.696 NL 0.250/0.320/0.388/0.708 MLB 0.245/0.313/0.389/0.702 Lucroy 0.265/0.313/0.391/0.703 Yes, that is exactly what I was referring too. I said he's actually been below average offensively. You only proved my point. You're talking like this some big "gotcha," like he's been so poor offensively. The difference between his numbers and the NL average is so small that I can't see how it is at all meaningful to say he's "below average." He's pretty much right at the average.
  3. The Brewers were incredibly healthy last year.
  4. I think it's pretty funny that people are trying to convince themselves that it's good that Lawrie isn't a Brewer because he's cocky. No, we definitely would not want his ability to mash in the middle of the lineup. Not with that mouth. No sir. And I was and am fine with the Marcum trade, btw.
  5. Remember when Wainwright went down before last season and we thought the Cards were screwed?
  6. Oh yes he will.
  7. Am I the only one who doesn't really care who good or bad Ramirez is in the field? We didn't get him for his mantle full of Gold Gloves. If he stays healthy and doesn't suddenly hit an age wall, he'll rake and all will be well with the world.

  9. You used a picture of Aramis Ramirez in a Brewers uniform but not one of Greinke in a Brewers uniform?
  10. More like Michael OLD.
  11. That show was shockingly positive about the Brewers. They tinted with a little reality at the end, but they painted an overall rosy picture. I would imagine if ESPN did this, they would spend half the show saying that Braun definitely did steroids and half the show saying how the Brewers wouldn't score any runs without Prince.
  12. Hawing, did you pause it at that point and pretend that George was smiling at you in the mirror?
  13. It would be really funny if Michael Young became a first ballot HOF'er. At no point in his career have I ever watched him and thought, "Wow, this is one of the greatest players in the 130 year history of baseball."
  14. Then he'd be overrated. I like him. He's really good. Just not a HOF'er.
  15. It's on again at 8:00am and noon central time Tuesday.
  16. Autograph Hall of Fame, maybe.
  17. Conrad has also played at 1B, 2B, and 3B, is a switch-hitter, and has more experience and success as a pinch-hitter. Green hitting slightly better in ST won't necessarily tip the scales in his favor. Especially knowing Roenicke. Conrad does have more experience as a PH (155 PA), but he's been awful in that role. .196/.270/.406/.676 in his career.
  18. That means absolutely nothing when it comes to his guilt or innocence. Whether he is 100% innocent, 100% guilty, or somewhere in between, he would have been 100% stupid not to retain the services of a lawyer.
  19. That's one amazing underwhelming list of names (not that I would expect otherwise - just saying). I guess Lillibridge could be adequate.
  20. Now if only MLB would stop being so lame about not allowing game video on YouTube.
  21. Arencibia's is the best when it comes to dead-on accuracy and the Bautista big-ears thing was pure gold (plus the way he pronounced BAU-tista). Dillard's awesomeness came from the exaggeration. The voice itself wasn't nearly as good as Arencibia, but the exaggerated voice cracks, the throat clear, the Corey Hart bit, they were all amazing.
  22. Just remember how many guys raked in ST in the past, made the team, and then remembered they weren't that good. Don't worry about ST stats.
  23. Yeah, isn't like the number one rule in baseball to beware of players the Braves don't want?
  24. Nope it didn't. I was just trying to clarify what I was saying too. http://i.imgur.com/D74yg.gif
