  1. I get as sick of hearing about 1982 as the next guy but this feels different to me. It's not just the Brewers running out these guys again to sell tickets it is a full length documentary movie. Almost feels like a swan song, a last hurrah. Perhaps a passing of the torch and this current team is destined to do something special.
  2. He isn't stealing anything, he is on the 26 man roster so it would be an upset for him not to make it on the playoff roster. I don't really want understand why you mention him taking a roster spot from somebody already on the 26 man roster like Haas or Monasterio. They still have a 26 man roster in the playoffs. Unless Oliver Dunn comes out of hibernation I can't even think of another guy that has even a remote shot.
  3. I'm not seeing anybody else in the organization that will take Bauers spot. He has his role as power bat off the bench and late inning 1B defensive replacement. Too late now to do anything. They got Hoskins to deliver in the playoffs and imagine he will get plenty of opportunity.
  4. It would be tough to lose Ernesto Martinez after playing his entire career in the Brewers organization. He has had a great second half, would be nice to see if he can continue to hit at AAA in 2026. Brewers lack hitting in the upper minors and 1B isn't exactly deep. The correct side of a platoon. Think he has better shot at success in the majors versus Clarke at AAA.
  5. The fringe guys have to produce , not going to be given a long leash. Brewers may never get a big league hit. Collins is more versatile and could stick as a guy that can go back and forth between the majors and.minors.
  6. I park on 44th Street near the stadium but it can fill up fast. Many of those spots are closer than general parking.
  7. The Brewers have had a rough few games but mighty thankful for at least some October baseball so don't have to pay much attention to that pathetic Packers team.
  8. ROY of the year is nice and all but since the Brewers can't get a draft pick if he wins I don't really care. Like others have said he should be a MVP candidate for a number of years. ROY can be goofy at times. I remember being a kid and everybody wanted to watch Ken Griffey Jr. and obtain his Upper Deck card but he ended up being third in ROY to Gregg Olson and getting one first place vote. Losing that didn't impact him too much.
  9. They may want to bring up Hudson if a pitcher injury happens in the next 15 days and can't do that if he is on the IL.
  10. In extras they probably should have went with Haase to try to win the game against the lefty. If they fail they still have Monasterio to play infield. Go for the win in extras instead of having Turang bunt with eveybody charging in and ulitimately hitting a weak grounder.
  11. I definitely would have lost money if betting on the Brewers this off season. However, even when I am most pessimistic I can never bet against the Brewers.
  12. After losing to the Brewers the Giants put Taylor Rogers, Tyler Matzek and Thairo Estrada on waivers, expect some more if they lose today.
  13. Still think they get somebody on waivers. Take care of the Giants and some guys become available.
  14. The Brewers did pretty good on this contract guaranteeing the one year and now likely picking up the $5.5 million option for 2025 since he pitched so well this year. Don't really want the Brewers going multi-year with too many guys in their mid 30's. It would not surprise me one bit if Rea had a disaapointing 2025 but he earned his money with just his 2024 production.
  15. It's nice to see the Cardinals have guys like Mikolas in their starting rotation, next year as well. Hopefully another 3 home run game like the last time the Brewers faced him in St Louis.
  16. I like Elvis and not really for trading him as he is a cheap bullpen piece for a number of years still and has shown he can be effective. However, it was necessary with everybody coming back and Megill is an obvious upgrade. Joe Ross will be gone by the end of the month but for now they mantain depth an he can eat up garbage innings. Would keep Zastryzny over Ross as Zastryzny is a cheap replacement for Milner next year. They do have to look at the potential playoff roster and it is highly unlikely that Bryse Wilson pitches an inning in the playoffs. They need to bring up Yoho or Miz and see if they are a viable option to help during the playoff run.
  17. I want the Brewers playoff run to last more than 24 hours so would prefer the bye no doubt.
  18. That would be awesome. Don't think it happens but one can dream.
  19. David Fry had a nice start but sure has struggled these last couple of months.
  20. Dodgers acquired him in trade so waiver prioroty didn't really matter at the time.
  21. Right, there is a decent chance Haase wouldn't get claimed but he could go anywhere he wanted. For his sake it might make sense to play for Nashville as he could still be called up again due to injury or September 1 and potentially make his way on the playoff roster.
  22. Just guys coming off the IL or optioned due to roster crunch by that point. Don't expect anybody we have not seen before on September 1.
  23. Not feeling real confident with Peguero and Mears as right handed options during the playoffs. Yoho could be a significant upgrade, they really need to see what he can do at the big league level by September.
  24. It's not really a mismatch either way, Peralta isn't exactly where he wants to be but Kershaw hasn't been real good since his return either and has yet to complete 5 innings.
