But I didn’t see it or I saw it but didn’t read it. That is usually what happens.

I am loving the new Charley Crockett album $10 Cowboy. I think I like $10 Cowboy and Midnight Cowboy the best but I also like Good At Losing, Solitary Road and Hard Luck & Circumstances. You can tell he has put a lot of himself into the lyrics.

Unlikely and the ones that may drop wouldn't be worth drafting. Think Ethan Small type of a starting pitcher. Actually this year is probably one of the worst college pitching in awhile at least for anyone in the 1st round. I fully expect the Brewers to go bat in the 1st round especially where they are picking. There are far more bats available in this draft than there are starting pitching.

It is also on Netflix now! Also if anyone hasn't seen Band of Bothers then you don't like good things and you are an evil person who needs to be tortured by having baby shark on repeat for eternity.

More pensions will be adding this soon. Ironically more pensions have added crypto than 401k’s have. Hopefully the morons in Washington DC can stop their bumbling around nonsense and stop fearing what they can’t control.

You can put users on ignore. On desktop hover over the persons name and then click on Ignore. There is probably a way to do it on mobile but I can't remember how.

Want another reason to hate the Yankees and the Dodgers or the regional sports networks? Well they are the ones holding up the blackout restrictions. Also some teams and the MLB commissioner are pushing for a national streaming deal but the large market teams are holding this back along with the Bally bankruptcy. The MLBPA will also be involved with this since it is a revenue sharing platform which means 2026 could be the earliest we see any headway on this. MLB is really trying to ditch the regional sports networks and go 100% streaming or close to 100% streaming. If Bally continues to walk blindly and stumble through this bankruptcy proceeding Manfred may have enough teams to start up a national streaming shared revenue deal. Though this would be without some of the major teams like the Dodgers and Yankees. I don't think MLB will get a lot but definitely more than what they are getting from the regional sports networks for the teams. This then brings up the question if the Yankees, Dodgers and others don't participate in this then are they then excluded from the revenue sharing? I would think the large market teams would still demand revenue sharing from this even though they would only participate when they are playing the teams that are in this new streaming deal. I would also assume local TV would probably go away or MLB may sell some of the rights to a local TV station which would probably be a Milwaukee only TV station (using the Brewers as an example). So if you live outside of the Milwaukee area the only way to watch if you can't get the TV station from over the air would be from whatever streaming service it would be on. I think MLB would consolidate these to one platform like Amazon and then run the other with Facebook, Apple, Roku, and YouTube then also the games that are played on FS1, Fox, MLB Network and ESPN. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5500209/2024/05/17/mlb-national-streaming-deal-tv/

I am not convinced. He does K a lot at 34.4% currently.

I think that is close to being right. The Yankees own the Twins and not just in the playoffs either.

I think you need to stay away from the draft power because you don't have power now. That could all change at any moment due to a trade or just the development of the prospects. But if you want power then taking Dakota Jordan or Tommy White in the first round would accomplish that. Maybe you go with Theo Gillen also for the Comp A pick. Gillen has some power though it is hard to tell with HS players. I wouldn't be surprised if he is the Brewers 1st round pick either. He has similar grades to Turang though with more power and less defensively. I think Gillen maybe more of an OF long term or maybe a 2B.

This wouldn’t breach the antitrust exemption I believe. Though if enough noise is made it could be threatened to be removed and if I were a team like the Cowboys I would welcome the removal. As it would then allow a team like the Cowboys to negotiate a TV deal for themselves.

Netflix will air the Christmas games for the next 3-years. The teams local viewers will still be able to watch the games but anyone out of market will have to watch on Netflix or NFL+ on mobile app. So for example if you live in Minnesota or the UP you won’t be able to watch that game unless you have Netflix. I wonder how long the NFL will keep the local cities get to watch these games without a subscription to one of the streaming services. At some point they will reverse this and probably when the boomer generation is no longer a viable revenue stream.

The bad suicide squeeze was worse.

LOL Pirates

Frelick has no confidence at the plate. Mitchell needs to get healthy in a hurry as Frelick does not look like a MLB OF.

The Cardinals should really have closer to 10 runs than the 4 they have.

You won't find that the majority of the time where the Brewers are picking. Those players are usually gone by the 10th pick. If you want a plus hit tool then White is probably the best option at 17. If the Brewers take another short player I think this board may explode as Caldwell is only 5'8". Theo Gillen may be someone the Brewers take in the 2nd round if he is still there. It will probably take something closer to the comp A pick to get him to sign.

The ever changing goal posts.

It was a strike that pitch has been called a strike all game. Watch the game.

You need your eyes checked that wasn’t anywhere close to being neck high unless Adames was only about four feet tall.

Goldschmidt looks like he is 50-years old swinging the bat up there.

I don't think Edey will be a good NBA player. He is another good in college but not really all that good in the NBA. With the Bucks first pick I really want DaRon Holmes II. If the Bucks keep Lopez for another year they need to take Holmes with their first round pick. Holmes should be able to replace Lopez and he is an excellent shot blocker along with being able to score from 3-pt range. He may not be as good as Lopez is but he is close. He is also far more athletic than Lopez is. I wouldn't be surprised if Holmes would take some playing time away from Lopez as the season goes on.

I don't think Benge fits into the Brewers model. Interesting player but not someone the Brewers will target and if they do I think they will convert him to his best position whatever that may be. I think Cijntje is another name you could possibly put for that comp A pick. Though I think we may need to look at JUCO players for the 2nd or Comp B pick.

Right I would be surprised if the Brewers go pitchers in the first round. Though at the comp pick or 2nd round pick I expect them to go pitcher if the pitcher they want is there like Sterling or Baptist. I think they go JUCO in round 2 and I don't think they will have to go cheap in the first two rounds as they have a lot of money to spend so I wouldn't be surprised if it is 2 JUCO or 2 HS pitchers for Comp A and Comp B picks. First round I think they go college bat so Culpepper, Smith, White or Jordan at 17. Then another college or HS bat at 57. Should be an exciting draft for the Brewers this year as they will have a lot of money to play with as they have about $13mm to play with.

Depends what scouting reports you read. Out of HS he was thought of as a really good hitter.
