    I'm not mad at you for having an opposing opinion .. but if we face Chris Sale in a wild card play in game you'd rather start Brewer Hicklen over a guy who is hitting .327 this year against LHP?
  2. liveforoctober
    I remember thinking Counsell did the R/L/R/L thing more than anyone I ever remembered ... and now I'm convinced Murphy does it more. I have no stats to back that up. I get it .. all things equal I'd rather not give the opposing team the opportunity to bring in a lefty in an inning and face 3 straight lefties against us, etc... but if Contreras, Chourio, and Adames are your 3 best hitters I would like them hitting 2, 3, 4 please. ESPECIALLY when the lefty option to break up that trio in the 3 or 4 spot is Bauers or Frelick or something.

    The Brewers should be pursuing another RH bat in the outfield though. With Yelich out and assuming Perkins comes back... That means we are still going to be starting Frelick or Mitchell against LHP come playoff time. Rosario has an OPS over 800 against LHP this season. He would provide infield depth as well as a needed outfield piece.

    I mean there is no chance he makes it to us on the waiver wire but he is a significant upgrade from Mona and would be great insurance to have for the stretch to protect against injury. Kind of a bizarre sequence from the Dodgers to trade for him then DFA almost immediately...?

    I think Yelich will have to put up a huge fight to play any outfield next year if he comes back healthy. We are so deep and young in the OF and Yeli fills the DH spot so well. We need to bubble wrap him for the rest of his time here...

    Not completely unexpected, still hurts to hear :(

    Johnny Estrada and one of my favorite calls of all time "Johnny Estrada rounds 3rd with a PIANO ON HIS BACK.."

    I don't want to be too over dramatic here ... but winning these last two games might be a mini catapult. Getting trucked by LA would have been a psychological weight the rest of the way. If we meet them again down the road ... there should now be belief.

    Man. 60 pitches for Buehler in 2 innings. Should have 5 or 6 on him right now. But we'll take it. New ball game.

    Needed this badly. Let's go.

    I definitely had a relapse moment and forgot Appleton was High A. They were the low A for long enough it is still imprinted in me.
  12. liveforoctober
    Holy smokes I am just digging a little bit on this kid. How have I missed him thus far?!? 17yo with that frame at SS/3B with the hit tool (switch hitter!) and power to grow? Goodness, can't wait to watch him in Appleton next year. I'm not saying it is Chourio 2.0 ... but???

    The Franklin Stubbs disrespect...

    Potentially a fairly good pivot game for morale with the fan base and this one. If the newly acquired arm throws well and we win, I think there is a big sigh of relief and arrow points up again. But if he gets hit hard I think the storm clouds are going to intensify amongst the fan base...

    Wiemer going back to Cincinnati is kind of a cool thing. Hopefully for his sake he has a scooter-like revival back where he feels comfortable and can make himself some money.. It'll be interesting to see if he reverts back to his old swing or if he continues on with the changes.

    I think to even up the buyouts of the two guys.
  17. liveforoctober
    Obviously you sign a guy and hope he leads you to certain heights ... but I low key love these kind of chess moves when they work out. Sign a guy on a 1yr deal for reasonable money, he pitches himself into being a top target at the deadline and (tbd) you get a nice haul for him and end up only paying 60-70% of the money owed. Fun way to restock your farm system if it works.

    The Brewers just completed, what many could argue, their worst 10 game stretch of on field baseball this season... .. and were 6-4. Shake a few guys out of their slumps, get a few arms back and let's go make a summer run.
  19. liveforoctober
    Man the reliever market is so barren, the few trades that have gone out have brought back nice returns. I don't want to trade any of them per se .. but Megill and Koenig have been so good for us unexpectedly (and Hudson but the IL eliminates him) .. I can't say I wouldn't be picking up the phone if teams were calling.
  20. liveforoctober
    dang, that's tough to watch. well I'm going to go paint a spare room. see you all tomorrow.
  21. liveforoctober
    Alright Koenig, let's see what kind of wizardry you can pull off here..
  22. liveforoctober
    Rats. I tried.

    carbon copy of the 4th thus far...
  24. liveforoctober
    Everyone gets to have their opinion on things and their opinion is no more or less valid than my own ... what I can't stand is when they decide to take over the entire room and make sure no one else can enjoy anything. I know they won't miss me but it will be nice not having to roll my eyes every 45 seconds if I want to hang around these game threads now and again. Go Crew.
  25. liveforoctober
    and just like that ... I get rid of the negativity in my thread and the Brewers take the lead.
