  1. Wait a second...doesn't Helena play 38 games in the first half? So don't they have 3 games left in the 1st half? If that's the case, their magic # is 2... Unless I'm missing something here...
  2. I believe Anderson is the DL...
  3. Katin with a slammer to cap a 6 run 7th for the H-Brews
  4. Yes you should give him more time and Opdyke's Brewer days are numbered, IMO. He has zero upside.
  5. We didn't trade for Carlos for his glove. But the dude can hit and catch
  6. May I ask when this signing took, or will take, place?
  7. THE O-FER is OVER!! Jenks goes ya ya
  8. West Virginia takes game 1 of the twinbill, I think....2-1
  9. The O chant in the Dome? Has Brewer Nation made the trip across the border?
  10. So I'm guessing no Hardy because Moeller's in there
  11. Very true very true. I guess when they string together 2 wins it'll be a 'Power surge' If that ever happens that is.
  12. Wow that is hilarious. Have you ever considered doing comedy for a living?
  13. West Virginia is Low A. Heether has proven he can play in Low A, putting him back there would not be making him any better. Festa was pretty old for the Pioneer League last year, hence his good numbers. I am a bit skeptical of Festa's stats
  14. What reason is there to keep Heether at Low A for the 3rd straight year?
  15. I heard Hamilton was released because he suffered a non-baseball related injury in the offseason.
  16. This doesn't make sense to me. Once a player is DFA'd, he can be claimed by any team within a certain time frame for the fee of $20k. Teams do not have to trade anyone to claim a player who is DFA'd. Perhaps Stockman is still on waivers and the waiver period does not close until Wednesday?
  17. Here's what I think happened. 2003 - Ford makes ML minimum $300,000 2004 - Brewers send Ford to minors, but have to pay him at least 80% of his previous year salary (~$240k) 2005 - Brewers think Ford will be in the minors again, but don't want to pay him the 80% of $240k ($192k). So, they tell him they won't pay him that much but they'll pay him more than he would get as a free agent. If Ford says no, then they would release him and save $192k. But Ford, or his agent, is smart and takes the offer because Ford wouldn't get $10,000/month as a minor league free agent. So the Brewers are probably paying more than he would have gotten from another club, but less than the $192k. In order to do that, they would have to release him and then have him sign a new contract. Does that make sense?
  18. I almost threw up when I read Kade Johnson should catch at AAA. It's safe to say that Kade has peaked as a player and will never reach past Double A. He's a AA backup at best. I am pretty sure the organization isn't too happy with him either, IRRC, he was suspended to end the 2004 season.
  19. Actually, Thomas, Stout, and Candelaria are all still on the restricted list. Although they aren't really part of the team, their contract rights still belong to the Brewers. Same with Dan Boyd. A few more cuts: Dan McKenna, Jeff Garner, Branden Murray were also let go.
  20. I believe the stats are put up on the board with the standings just so players rehabbing can see how their team is doing. I don't think they're up there as a constant reminder of how each player is doing, but more so as just there for you to look at if you want. And they did use your picture. Journalism at its finest!
  21. Next time you see Gallardo, ask if he flew on Sunday or Monday. Do you really think they would fly a starting pitcher 2000 miles the day of his start?
  22. If the D Backs want to take Drew again, they would have to get him to sign a 'Consent to Reselect' form. I don't think Drew would sign that, thereby making it impossible for the DBacks to sign him.
  23. Kloosterman hadn't pitched in several days because he was due to pitch on that Sunday. He was out at 4 am when he was the starting pitcher at a 2pm game. Also, Gallardo flew to Peoria on Sunday, not Monday.
