  1. I would call that a bad outing as he only went 2.2 IP but I think that was more because of his pitch count being 71 after 2.2 IP. There was an error that extended the inning in the second in that game which contributed to the high pitch count. He did have a bad third inning after getting two outs. So counts as a bad start sure so one out of the previous 6 starts and if you want to count the one against the Cardinals that is 2 out of 6 starts after the Vegas game. Still not falling off the face of the earth bad.
  2. This is false as he hasn't given up more than 3 runs before this start. The game after the Vegas start he had 6 IP and only 3 hits and 0 runs scored against. Then came the injury against the Cardinals. So he hasn't fallen off the face of the planet since the trip to Vegas.
  3. Pitchers do have bad games from time to time. Is this your first time watching baseball?
  4. I will still take victory laps for this trade. Durbin, Monasterio and Seigler for a #1/2 type pitcher and a #4/5 type pitcher is a win every time even with adding in the pick. People were calling for Monasterio and Seigler to be DFA'd at points in time in the season last year. Hamilton and Seigler have been about equal in terms of value so far this year. Durbin has been a little bit more valuable than Ortiz so far this year. That means Harrison and Drohan have gotten the most value in that trade. If you give up 3 players and one pick and two out of the three players who are starting pitchers are equaling the positional players you gave up that is an absolute win. The Brewers gave up one above average infielder, an average utility player, a wet sock and a draft pick for two rotational pieces and a wet sock. That is always going to be a win you take a victory lap on. The positional players should have a higher WAR as they have more opportunities to improve that number. With them not having a higher WAR it is an absolute loss for the Red Sox. The WAR says its about even but when you look at the players given up and where the positions they are playing it is an absolute win for the team that is getting this much WAR from starting pitchers.
  5. Last I saw the floor would be something around $170mm which only about 10 teams in MLB are at or above. The cap would be at $245mm. But the caps also includes player benefits which MLB put at about $20-25mm. I saw $23mm reported somewhere but I can’t find where I saw that. So the floor is really around $150mm and the ceiling at about $220mm. I really like the MLB proposal but I don’t see the players agreeing to an international draft or including the players benefits into the salary cap and floor.
  6. Reduced team control I agree is bad for the Brewers. Salary floor wouldn’t be bad for the Brewers. I agree on the international draft but I don’t see the MLBPA approving this. The cap obviously would help some. There is still the issue Milwaukee is not a desirable destination. More revenue sharing is coming at least with MLB’s last proposal. All media local and national would be split evenly between all the teams and split with the players 50/50.
  7. The AI slop lawyer commercials please make it stop. I’ll take a one call that’s all commercial over this AI slop.
  8. I'm tired of the Vaughn should get more playing time non sense. He sucks he is a platoon bat and should only face LHP. It is pure luck he even hits the ball against a RHP.
  9. Vaughn just sucks. Watches the same pitch as before called a ball and the ump calls it a strike does he challenge it nope. Could have been 3-1 instead of 2-2.
  10. The this year we're much closer to worst is false. Top 10 in both BA, OBP and SLG with RISP. https://www.baseball-reference.com/tools/split_stats_lg.cgi?full=1&params=bases|RISP|ML|2026|bat|AB| The Brewers are also #1 with PA's with RISP the Cubs are 2 and the Pirates 3. The Cubs are only in the top 10 in OBP everything else there are middle of the pack.
  11. The arena club commercial whenever the guy says Jeter all I hear is Cheater. But then again I would annoy my friend who is a Yankees fan when I would call him Derek Cheater.
  12. They gave the starter a 4-run lead last Friday and that didn't really go all that well.
  13. I have seen Johnny Estrada get down the line faster than that. Seriously Vaughn?
  14. Sure better but is he that much better that you would give up a prospect for him? My answer is no. He is not that much better where he helps the Brewers beat the Dodgers or any other NL playoff team.
  15. It he is not going to win a Twins a championship why trade for him?
  16. There were no strike outs so they did hit the ball.
  17. The Twins bought at the deadline. Why would they sell a piece that has been productive for them? They were also only a few games behind the Rangers for the last WC spot and only a few games behind the White Sox. You would have had to give up someone like Vaughn to get Clemens or subtracted from the bullpen. The Twins were not going to trade him for a prospect.
  18. Yeah the replay didn't show what he was saying. The ball got out of Bae's glove in plenty of enough time.
  19. If Brice tries to get to third on that hit he is out and out by a mile.
  20. I don't believe the magnet schedule exists for the 1994 season. The only mention is of a pocket schedule and no magnet schedule. The media guide for that year would confirm if there is or isn't one. But if there is one and you can't find it on ebay or any other auction site your best bet is probably what I suggested previously.
  21. Made is not on the 40 man so there is a very small chance he will even get added. Add in the possibility of a lockout and 40 man players not being able to play in the minors if there is a lockout there is probably a less than 0% chance Made gets added to the 40 man and gets added to the team.
  22. My guess here is if you do this with the Braves starting from ‘91 you might find some similarities. But it would be hard to have 10+ years of success like the Braves did from ‘92 to 2006.
  23. More info coming out on the Brewers offer for Skubal and they had multiple. One offer for sure had Pena and Frias in it. Another offer had Jett Williams in it and another offer that had pitching prospects in it. It was not a lack of trying by the Brewers front office. The only offer that could have beaten the Dodgers offer would have been a Made and Pena offer. That would have been an asinine offer. I am glad the FO didn’t go full stupid on a Skubal offer. It also explains the price on May and Romero.
