    I don’t believe so, but the CBA isn’t 100% clear on this. I think a player only gets credited for a full year if they don’t accrue a full year. For example if a prospect is brought up in June and then wins the ROY they get a full year of service time instead of less than half a year. I only skimmed over the CBA so I could be wrong. In the above scenario a team would get 7-years but with the new rules it would be the standard 6-years of control.

    0-0 this year so perfection. I hate going to the Dbacks stadium. It is my least favorite stadium to watch a game at. It just feels like I am in a warehouse or a hangar watching a baseball game. I am 0-1 lifetime watching the Brewers here. Though that one game was a playoff game.

    An out is an out regardless if it is a strike out or a ground out. What you are talking about is random occurrences in the process. A batter could strike out and not record an out it does happen though it is rare. An error or something else occurring doesn’t matter when you are talking about the end result. A pop out for a third out is the same as a strike out for the third out. They carry the same weight over a course of a season. Now if you want to say someone striking out 40% of the time is an issue then yes that is an issue. But if you are talking about a strike out versus another out then no there is no difference. Stating it could turn into an error or something else occurring is just a what about this type of an argument which doesn’t go anywhere as you can’t prove either side of the what about as there could be billions of different outcomes for each.

    There are two versions of the rule 5 draft one for the major league portion if a player is picked here they have to be added to the 40 man. For the minor league portion there are no rostering rules.

    On June 1st the Cubs had 341 runs scored and the Brewers 274 which is a 67 difference in runs scored between the two teams. Flash forward to today and the Cubs have 588 runs scored (+247) and the Brewers are at 573 runs scored (+299). The Brewers offense while being a less formidable offense power wise has outscored the Cubs in that time span by 52 runs. That is a crazy turn around for a team that doesn't hit that many HR's.

    I am getting old my brain can’t remember these things and I didn’t want to do a google search.

    It was Moustakas and not Grandal. 2019 the Brewers gave him the one year deal with a mutual option and then didn’t offer him the QO in 2020 off season.

    There are already composite bats. They do have a downside at least for cold weather where they perform worse and are prone to cracking in colder weather. I believe some composite wood bats are allowed in MiLB but I think that is only in short season rookie ball. One problem with a composite bat is that the sweet spot is far larger than it is on a wood bat. For MLB to agree to this it would require the manufacturers of these bats to get a MLB approved bat. That would be another thing on the list for umpires to check which do we really trust an umpire to get this right?

    Yeah I knew that wasn’t right but there was someone around that timeframe they gave a contract to and promised they wouldn’t offer a QO to. I thought it was Grandal but my memory is failing me now on who it was exactly.
  11. nate82
    Yeah may, we won’t know for sure until the off season. A lot of these are just handshake deals or just a wink and a nod deal. I don’t believe there are many where it is explicitly stated. I believe the last one for the Brewers was with Grandal but I could be misremembering that deal.

    The Brewers may have an agreement with Woodruff that they won’t offer him a QO. It may have been part of why he chose the Brewers over the Red Sox and other teams that offered him a contract.

    What is the likelihood of the Brewers winning 100 games now? @sveumrules
  15. nate82
    First team to 70 wins. I think a few people had that as the Brewers total for the year. I don’t believe the Brewers have ever been the first team to 70 wins in a season.

    Maybe 5 at most throughout the whole season. They are still at a 75% success rate at stealing bases it is not as good as last year but I think last year was more of a fluke year. Since 2020 the 2024 Brewers had the best wSB which is your stolen bases and caught stealing runs above average at 14.4. This year the Brewers are at 1.6 which is 8th best in the league. The Reds who were the second best team last year are at 0.1. Caught stealing doesn't impact the game as much as some think it does. It is just another out and the weight of that out isn't any more than a ground out or a pop out. Coming into the game this year the Brewers have been caught the most stealing at 41 but have the second most stolen bases at 127. The Rays are in first with 148 SB and 37 CS. Ideally you want to stay around 75-80% success rate. If you go above 80% you are not attempting enough and if you are below 75% you are attempting too much.

    Whenever I see Nacho Alvarez I can only think of one thing.

    This umpire crew has been bad at calling balls and strikes but they have been better at informing the fans what is going on when an explanation is needed. Most MLB umpires won't even do this because their ego won't let them. These must be new umpires or they have checked their ego at the door. MLB umpires are so frustrating every other sports ref's will explain things but nope only a few in MLB will do the same. So so so frustrating.

    Someone has to be the last guy in the bullpen.

    Sneezing is no joke. I pulled a rib muscle after a workout when I sneezed. One of the worst pains in my life. This was also in HS when I had no idea on how to actually workout and train. I wish I had YouTube then.

    It could also be yesterday they believed it wasn’t as serious but new evidence today states otherwise. Things can change between one day to the next.

    20-9 with a rain canceled game in Cincinnati to be played September 29th.

    What is crazy about NVDA is that they haven't even hit the peak yet. Sovereign AI is a thing and it is coming and guess who is right there ready to take the money from these governments? Yes you guessed it NVDA. The next big thing is quantum computing but it is risky and I think it is still in its infant stage. You could see the stocks fall flat in the next year or they could explode like NVDA did with AI but I think the explosion in quantum computing won't happen for another 5-10 years or longer.

    I feel dumb for not buying more of IONQ, RGTI, QUBT and QBTS. All are up big so far this year well IONQ is up big since I bought it last year at about $8 a share. The others I bought at about $1 a share each. But I didn’t buy as much as I did with IONQ go go go quantum computing!
