    I really want Pratt to go like 9-14 or something this series with a bunch of slick defensive plays so Cubs fans have to be sick about dealing with him the next 10 years.

    Murphy's mismanaging is costing us games again.

    Obviously ideal scenario is the Brewers sweep the Cubs with a run differential of 60 to 0. BUT I also want the Cubs to be buyers at the deadline... Hopefully we sweep them and then they win a few games heading into the All-Star break so they don't completely fall out of it. I want them dishing out a few more prospects before the summer is over if possible..

    I'm not saying anything as far as expectation goes... But funny this question is raised shortly after we just signed and promoted the most Robin Yount looking thing we've had in a long time... and at his position too.

    This isn't something I've thought about re: NBA drafts before and organizational health. How often are late 2nd rd picks bought like this? If you are a team sitting in the final 10 spots of the draft will you typically have suitors looking to buy your pick? I admittedly check out of the NBA draft after the 1st rd and then will check after to see who the Bucks grabbed or if any Badgers were selected ... but I've never paid attention to this part of it.

    The whole point is if I'm hungry I don't want a grapefruit regardless of cost. If you are going to upgrade the position, upgrade the position. This is a move just to make a move.

    Assuming I want to stand pat because I don't want to overpay for Isaac Paredes? Ok, man. Have a good day. It's like walking into a grocery store and being offered a grapefruit for $18 and when I say no the cashier says "well I guess you must not be hungry then"...

    I never said he wouldn't raise the talent level on the team. But if we trade for Paredes last year (or his equivalent for that team) does that win us the Dodgers series?
  9. liveforoctober
    No way brother. Our 11th best reliever isn't Trevor Hoffman and our backup catcher isn't Pudge Rodriguez and that is just poor management on our part and don't you dare try to question my rage over it!
  10. liveforoctober
    I guess I would ask you this... Fangraphs has the Brewers chances of winning the World Series currently at 9.3%. We can argue that number or whatever but for this conversation's sake ... if we acquire Paredes and it is a marginal upgrade to what we currently have (better offensively, worse defensively) ... how much does that improve our chances? .5%? 1%? So is it a good organizational decision to give up two Top 15 prospects for a <1% increase in odds? Either way we are going to win the World Series 1 out of 10 times in both scenarios .. so why give up real capital for an upgrade that is a lateral improvement of projection?

    Cubs sending their #13 prospect Cole Mathis to NY.
  12. liveforoctober
    So we are getting David Peterson this weekend. Peterson this year is 3-6 with a 6.09 ERA and 1.65 WHIP in 16 appearances including 8 starts.

    I would love to know what the cost is to buy a pick - whether earlier or later in a rd like this. What do we think MKE buying #60 from Orlando cost us?
  14. liveforoctober
    Oh great, so you are one of those 'stat guys'.
  15. liveforoctober
    He has a little Mintzy in him for anyone who follows Barstool..
  16. liveforoctober
    Never a doubt.

    Cubs swinging the bats well and Freddy on the mound tomorrow after the drubbing he took in Philly. Need him to bounce back.
  18. liveforoctober
    Pratt was a stud in high school on the mound.
  19. liveforoctober
    A little bit funny you start with a stat to support your argument then complain about people using stats to support theirs ;)

    This was game managing 101. Don't let Vaughn hit against Moll in any circumstance if you are Francona.

    Diamond Baseball Holdings owns the club. The aforementioned Rob Z (Rob Zerjav) and his ownership group sold it to them last spring if I remember correctly. Rob was retained as the president and the whole staff stayed on.. I think Diamond Baseball owns like 25 clubs around the minor leagues or something like that..

    Re: the Trats stadium... Here are 4 attached photos. The obvious first place to add significant seating are both grass sections along the lines. Conservatively you could add two more sections to each side and still have a small grass section for families. 3 sections per side if you replace all of it. The other space on the property where there is a lot of room for imagination is out beyond left field. You can see how far the property expands behind the stadium. A left field bleacher set is more than viable in my opinion. It is a little wet back there so I'm sure the permits and logistics will be of concern but there's a lot of room back there to utilize. There are a few areas where premium seating could be added if more of that is needed.. mainly behind home plate. I think a small upper deck could be extended out from the Fox club to create suites. I added a photo beyond right field just to show but it is basically a marsh back there and highway 41 is looming so I'm guessing expansion that way might not be in the cards.
  23. liveforoctober
    Give me a few minutes. I'm here, I'll show you exactly where they can expand if needed. If I see Rob Z walking around at all, I'll grab him and ask him what would need to be done.

    Are you watching on TV or are you here? I thought Marco got ahold of his pretty well. then Bitonti hit it 60 ft further..

    Cubs are in a pitching bind. They lost Cabrera last night for awhile (he would have thrown against us for sure this weekend) and have a double header today with two TBA starters (the Cubs Reddit boards yesterday were saying they have no idea who will throw today). They play then again tomorrow while we rest. Really good opportunity for us to take care of business against those hot dogs this weekend.
