  1. Regarding Bauers, the qualifying offer still exists under the current agreement that has not expired yet. We will know by Monday if the Brewers offer it. Also, it has been said before but a one year deal is way different than a long term contract, it isn't Contreras versus Bauers in any way. If Contreras is willing to take the qualifying offer if it exists in 2028, the Brewers will be more than happy to offer it.
  2. I don’t think that’s fair to May. It was a really long parade, so he wasn’t going to be ‘on’ the whole time. When he passed us, he got off the bus, high-fived a bunch of people (my kids included), and sprayed champagne with his teammates. I didn’t manage to get a great photo of him, but here’s the one I got
  3. I got there around 6am driving from Madison as I knew roads were closing by 7:00. Bought parking ahead of time for $10 and glad I did as the same lot was charging $50 when I got there. There was plenty of front row seating by the barricade when I got there and ended up across from the TJ Maxx However, it filled up quickly throughout the morning. The actual parade was awesome, high fived a ton of players that left the bus and William Contreras spraying champagne on us. For.whatevwr reason the older players from the '82 team and Pat Murphy, who was last, were way behind everybody else and a number of fans had left before they got there because they thought it was over. I also thought the alumni bus was rather weak with only a couple of players(Jenkins and McGehee) on it. Overall it was a great event and looking forward to the next one.
  4. Yeah, it is going to work out fine for the Cardinals. There was no need for them to keep either May or Romero and they got the best possible deal. The Brewers and Cardinals have different priorities when making a deal, epsecially at the trade deadline so a good chance both teams ultimately consider it a win.
  5. This is a great feeling, got some World Series gear at Dick's last night with my kids as I couldn't sleep anyways. This team will be talked about forever and the Brewers will have giveaways revolving around this team until the end of time and I will never get sick of it.
  6. Vaughn had a great game against Peralta the last time they faced each other but don't think Murphy is taking out Yelich
  7. There is no rule, totally subjective. Was it struck at by the batter or not. Nobody knows, so debating it is kind of pointless. Kind of hard to imaging MLB has lasted this long without addressing it.
  8. Brewers defintely should not switch around their guys to match up with the Rays. If the Rays want to send out an inferior pitcher in game 1 of the World Series go for it. It certainly puts the Rays at an advantage if they somehow pull it off but the Brewers have seen plenty of Martinez so risky and will repeat itself in game 5.
  9. Season seat holders get the opportunity to watch the actual World Series, I don't understand why there is any advance sale on the watch party. Brewers dropped the ball here
  10. Megill really is an odd case, most guys the Brewers trade are at or just past their prime. Megil as noted is pretty old, that may limit the return and in turn the Brewers desire to trade him. Unlike Contreras, who is highly unlikely to be traded, it really could go wither way with Megill.
  11. The Brewers are going to try to get to back to back World Series so don't really see a scenario anymore where Contreras is traded during the off season.
  12. Finally get to meet him tonight at an autograph signing in Gurnee of all places. I won't mind one bit if I encounter grumpy Murphy.
  13. Getting that run in the ninth was huge. If anybody got on then Ohtani was going to bat and Ashby against Ohtani is better than Megill.
  14. I went to a Guardians game this summer as part of a vacation and did their tour as well and those will be tough tickets too. They greatly reduced their seating capacity over the last few years. They have an entire suite section that they turned into a two story indoor kids zone area and there are other large areas just for kids now. They also have a bunch of open areas without seating. If you get SRO tickets there it might not be that bad but actual seating is lower 30K now, smallest in MLB.
  15. I give Bauers a ton of credit figuring out a way to get better at an older age, it doesn't matter what fanbase or how long you followed baseball there is pretty much no one that figured Bauers would produce like this starting in his 30s. I would think the qualifying offer is a no brainer at this point, can't imagine the uproar of not offering the NLCS MVP a contract. For Bauers though and all of the playoff hype he may find someone willing to give him a three year deal.
  16. Murphy has something Counsell never got; a pennant. Since only pennant-winning managers earn a spot on the Wall of Honor, Murphy’s day is coming. Counsell’s isn’t.
  17. What a turnaround for Mitchell. He took a lot of heat in Spring Training and constant talk of DFA through the years, but he finally stayed healthy all season, and now he’s a permanent part of Brewers lore.
  18. He produced during the playoffs and there are plenty of high priced free agent signing and trade acquisitions that have not over the years so have to give him credit for that. Glad that Murphy recognizes that Hamilton still needs to improve his bunting and if Hamilton works at it he should have a few more quality seasons with the Brewers or another team.
  19. Doesn't look good today, hopefully Miz has a good game tomorrow.
  20. Glad they ended that road playoff losing streak in San Diego and hopefully get a road winning streak going. Lots of pressure on the Dodgers this game so need to capitalize.
  21. I watched the NLDS outside the stadium on the two screens they have to experience the atmosphere and tailgate beforehand. It was pretty good because of the weather and they had the game on a live stream versus a delay plus could play some mini golf during the breaks in action. However, it sounds like they already ended that with game 2 of the NLCS.
  22. Such a big game, a win guarantees more playoff baseball in Milwaukee and puts a ton of pressure on the Dodgers.
  23. I have been to quite a few stadiums and not a big fan of SRO at AmFam. It is okay during the regular season as can always find seats. However, during the playoffs that doesn't really work. I like the railing down the RF line if you can get it. An area by the bullpen/restaurant in LF as well. I don't know what they do during the playoffs but sat in some nice chairs in the X Golf area Summer 2025 for free.
  24. Tatis does seem like a good dude and a heck of a player, like David Ortiz, I don't think the PED stink will stay with him because he is an easy guy to like and root for.
