  1. Calling my bank tomorrow and getting the biggest loan I can to wager on the Yankees winning the AL pennant. They might score 1000 runs this year.
  2. Might need Alexander to start tomorrow.
  3. Doubtful but if we hit 9 more today they might.
  4. If anyone had Capra and Turang as the first two Brewers to hit home runs this season on a bet slip they are sitting on a beach somewhere right now..
  5. Well they went to the world series last year so if that is someone's definition of 'not good enough' .. then what are we?
  6. Should Bellinger reach ... Judge is a 3run HR away from the HR cycle.
  7. 2 games down for the Abner suspension. 2 to go. Might need his spot though after today :(
  8. The adjusted over/under for the Yankees runs scored today is 28.5
  9. 1) You are deflecting from the point of the convo which validates my point, so I appreciate it. 2) The timing of mentioning that he is missed isn't coincidental and is dismissive of Cortes which again, given he was 3 pitches into the season ... seems dramatic for drama's sake.
  10. Man look at this inning, baseball is crazy man .. all these small markets get to have all the young athletic players who can run and all the big markets have to overpay for old vets who can't field and throw anymore. Baseball is broken. Thanks Manfred!!! Am I doing this right?
  11. It's not about spinning it a positive way, the inning sucked. But calls for his release, missing Colin Rea, Matt Arnold failing at his job, MLB being broken, etc etc ... everyone losing their minds like Alonso just hit another one on us. The inning sucked, it IS possible that it can stop there.
  12. Glad to see the game threads are in mid season form lol. Always a treat in here.
  13. This was always a bad spot for him to start the season. Nerves must be through the roof. All his former teammates probably know his tendencies. Tough to watch this happen still.
  14. Hope Cortes settles in quickly. Even for seasoned pros ... this would be an anxious situation. First game of the season and it is back "home". I can't imagine he doesn't want this in the worst way. It is always a little anxious to start the year until you get the first win. It would be a great Saturday night if we can take care of that today.
  15. I didn't see this posted anywhere else. When spring started I was really hoping he was going to be a nice platoon with Hoskins. Unfortunately seems to be having one of those stumbling starts to a career :( Hope he can heal up quick and give himself a chance to help us for the stretch run of the season.
  16. This seems like fair play. Hicklen would need a few things to go his way to get called back up here... the OF depth at the MLB level is quite good, especially keeping Bauers around while waiting for Perkins to heal up. Giving him a fresh start somewhere to get a chance in this situation seems a good faith move. With that said, I wonder how many of us could name the starting outfield in AAA right now? (I had to look it up myself) All of our OF prospects are in the lower levels. Garrett Spain, Jared Oliva, and Jimmy Herron. I'm guessing Herron is the first of those 3 who would get a shot? Plenty of at bats in AAA now for those 3 to prove something and for the guys in AA to come steal a job.
  17. My biggest hope is also in the bullpen. I think Uribe bounces back and combined with Yoho allows us to make Megill a trade piece at the deadline.
  18. Happy opening day folks! One of the best days of the year.
  19. I really want to emphasize that I don't think the following scenario will happen nor do I want it to. I think this is going to be a great year of baseball and we will be buyers at the deadline. I really want that to be known. However, there exists a scenario where Quero shines this year, the Brewers underperform/are injured and fall out of the race by the summer, and we turn in the craziest trade deadline of our lifetimes. We have 3 vet proven starters with one year left on their contracts, we have a very friendly Freddy contract, we would have an albatross of a trade piece behind the plate .. plus a few wild cards in there. In a break glass scenario, the Brewers could shed a good portion of their team salary - give the remaining starts to the young guys to let one or more of them prove their 2026 worth ... and in return have the best farm system in MLB by summer's end. Don't expect it. Don't want it. But I can't say I haven't noticed how the roster has been built this year (specifically the staff) and haven't logged it as notable.
  20. I realize they are probably just going to get enough cash to recoup our costs of having him for less than a month plus maybe a tip... But if we actually get to pick a prospect out.. even at the very bottom of the bucket, that's kind of a fun timeline -> Sign a guy for 4 weeks to a minor league deal and potentially get a prospect for him. Best of luck Mark!
  21. I think this is where my head immediately went as well. I know his price tag would be high, but if there is any friction between he and the Orioles right now that softens the ask... you have an option at 3B (which we may or may not still need) and if it doesn't pan out there seems to be a big opening over at 1B next year that he can run with.
  22. Happy for him! I want him to do well.
