    With so many quality players on the major league roster and prospects coming up, what's your ideal scenario for the way things shake out defensively? Do we try to extend Turang or trade him? Does he ever move to SS? I'm not educated enough on the prospects. I love the flexibility we have with all these athletic, up the middle defenders, but we only have so much room!

    I can't pretend to say I know enough about these prospects but it appears to be a good haul for Freddy. I trust Matt Arnold. I love Freddy and enjoyed having him on this team. I don't take these things personal. I hate to see him go but know this is the only way we can continually compete with the way Major League Baseball is set up. As others have mentioned, I don't think Freddy is an ace, but a dang good number two. Fingers crossed the guys we got back have a positive impact on our team.

    There were so many pressures that made it intense for the players and fans. Brewers can't win in the playoffs, they are just a regular season team. we heard it all year. Playing their biggest rival. Counsell leaving and going to Chicago FIBs being Fibs Calling our Stadium Wrigley North How last year ended in dramatic fashion There were so many reasons I couldn't stomach a first round loss this year. I instantly felt a huge relief when they won. I'm sure the players did too. As for the Dodgers, I have a few concerns. My first is will they come out flat tonight after a very emotional win Saturday? Set's up perfect for a let down. An absolutely electric environment Saturday. The fans will really have to get that going early tonight. I do think the Dodgers gave us a higher level effort during the regular season after we won a few games. I believe the crowd was pretty electric in Milwaukee for the series, playoff environment. We handled their best efforts and won. That said, we were hot and they were cold. The Dodgers are hot right now it seems. I think we will have more determination but we will need some luck too. Hoping for a great series..... or a sweep for the Brewers so I don't have to stress as much.

    Wild Bill! Man oh man that was good and has me so excited for this next game. No matter what happens, this season has been extremely fun to witness. I'm glad I'm a Brewer fan.

    What are we thinking happens with Woody? If we get to the next round, do you think there is a chance he's on the roster? What about DL Hall? Sorry I'm bad with the roster stuff and never pay attention to it. I know he came back for the last game in the year. What's the vibe from everyone on the current roster?

    I'm happy with a minimal approach to the automated strike zone. I think having a fully automated zone is going to take too much away from the game. I actually hate the idea of it. There is so much art to pitch framing and a pitcher using an umps zone, when he's consistent, to his advantage. I do think having the challenges available for when they miss is a good idea, but let's keep the umps calling balls and strikes. Also, could challenges only be successful if they are clearly outside of the zone vs missing by a millimeter? Part of the entertainment of baseball is the back and forth with the umps and the fans reactions to what they think are bad calls. It feels like we will lose a lot. The game will feel uneventful on all called pitches. My one concern with the challenges will be the coaches getting instant feedback to batters with some sort of signal or noise. That could be tough to monitor. I think it will be funny when you get some goofy guy like a Manny Ramirez, who won't listen to his manager and will wildly use challenges and burn them up in the first inning. I don't know of Manny is the right example but was looking for a guy who is in his own world.

    I'd love to see them hit Golden on some crossing routes. Get him going full speed, easy pass across the middle and then let him turn on the jets.
  8. RobDeer 45
    I think Love is just off by a few inches on some of his misses. Because these guys don't play in the preseason and Love was out for a while, I expected some timing issues. I'm not too worried about it. He just needs to clean it up. I do think on the first bomb to Golden, he tried to throw that as far as he could so he wouldn't under throw him. I'd imagine it takes awhile to get used to that type of speed. Kestrel79 - I agree totally on the rolling out thing. I said that last night a few times. Part of it might be that they want him to be extra conservative because we have such a good defense. I'm not sure. He definitely seemed like he could have gotten out of the pocket a few times when he didn't even try. Great game last night. Defense is just different. They are flying to the ball in swarms. QBs are having to get rid of the ball so fast right now. They look scared. DBs can plant and jump first moves because they know the QB won't have time. It's impressive and so fun to watch.

    That made my day! Great choice for 11!
  10. RobDeer 45
    Well that was a lot of fun! The defense was flying all over the place, swarming to the ball. Goff getting rid of the ball so quickly helped them a ton. I was impressed with how much fun they looked like they were having. I also agree, Detroit may have seen their best days already, but I believe they will be much better than yesterday, once they get some time to mesh with the new coordinators. Love looked good. I think he will look better once he gets a little more timing with his guys in game situations. A few of his throws were off by small amounts but it appeared to be based on timing.

    Alright, last monthly prediction of the season. Good luck and go Crew! 24 games in total. I'll go 14-10
  12. RobDeer 45
    Zad Fnark nailed it with his prediction of 21. Seemed like a bold prediction at the time, but I guess not! Nice work. A couple other people were off by 1 which is also impressive.
  13. RobDeer 45
    Was his WHIP bad? I'm just thinking he seemed like he was always going full count and letting guys on but that's just based off memory. I probably don't remember the clean innings as much because they were low stress!
  14. RobDeer 45
    I’d be hesitant to bring him back. Wasn’t he not a great clubhouse guy? I think he might be mentally cooked after this season as well. I think it’s best to let him go somewhere else.

    That is a crazy amount of rain!
  16. RobDeer 45
    Hey everyone. I was up north and not on devices too much. Have many of you been affected by the flooding in Milwaukee and the surrounding area? What caused most of the issues, rivers and streams rising or were low areas filling up with rain water as well. How long was it raining? Sorry I'm so out of the loop! Send pictures or stories if you have them.

    This run has been unreal. I can't believe it, they just keep finding a way. Hope they come out firing with a great crowd behind them.
  18. RobDeer 45
    I used to bring this up back in the day with Tony Gwynn Jr and Carlos Gomez. I was curious if teams tracked the issues they caused with their speed. Not sure I ever got an answer.
  19. RobDeer 45
    So late again but going 16-14. Go Crew!
  20. RobDeer 45
    Oh my this would be amazing!!! We definitely need to bring that back!
  21. RobDeer 45
    I was thinking about Misiorowski and what the plans are for him for the rest of the season. I know they were talking about limiting his innings during his last outing. Are we going to have him for the stretch run? Are there other pitchers like Woodruff that might be on an innings limit?
  22. RobDeer 45
    Curious how they bounce back today. Tough game yesterday. I hope they come out firing on all cylinders and take it to the M's.
  23. RobDeer 45
    Is this real life? This is an incredible run!
  24. RobDeer 45
    I think the Dodgers might be a little fired up for this series. I'm sure there will be some talk on how us sweeping them was our World Series. They will probably want to come out and put us back in our place. Here we go!

    I've got a soft spot for the All Star game. Brings me back to my youth. I know it's not the same but it's still great for me. It's for fun but you can't really play baseball half speed, so it still works. Compared to NFL and NBA, it's way better. I actually loved the HR derby to finish it. My kids were going nuts.
