  1. This trade makes zero sense for both teams involved. If the Blue Jays are trading Bichette they would be trading him for prospects not for someone like Williams this is just video game trades dumb. The Brewers are not trading Williams for someone like Bichette. They will want someone else in return like a prospect not someone who would be a FA after next season.
  2. Murphy pushed all of the right buttons in this game even with a surprising Peralta appearance. The 9th inning that is all on Devin. He choked and that is on him you can't blame Murphy for that where every single manager would have brought in Devin in that situation.
  3. Mellusi stepping away from the team to rehab injuries. https://www.buckys5thquarter.com/2024/10/3/24261679/breaking-news-rb-chez-mellusi-stepping-away-from-wisconsin-badgers-rehab-injuries-luke-fickell
  4. Yes when he is getting enough spin on that FB it looks like a slider. In September for awhile it looked like he hit a wall and his FB wasn't spinning the way it was previously. Good to see he has found it again in this game.
  5. Do umpires even call leaning into pitches anymore? Winker dropped his elbow in order to get hit. This is the second time the Mets have done this in the series.
  6. While the Brewers haven't been that bad they have been bad over a 4-year stretch but they have been bad and people have stuck around. Does it really matter if you lose 90 games instead of 100 games?
  7. 3B is a black hole in FA. The best option is Bregman and it would be better to pay Adames over Bregman. This is the 2025 FA for 3B: There really isn't anyone interesting at all. The best option would probably be a trade with the Dbacks for Suarez. But I think the Dbacks would be looking for starting pitching in return in that deal.
  8. They are holding it up by applying blackouts where you can only use their app/service to watch them. There is still an option but it is still blacked out for other providers. That is how Bally is holding up blackouts. The more options the better for the consumer as that tends to lower prices a bit. Without Bally MLB is free to negotiate with anyone they want on televising the games and opening it up to more competition. The blackouts then go away as you will be able to watch the Brewers in Iowa using MLB.TV which wasn't possible previously.
  9. The Penguin is really really good on HBO.
  10. My ESPN feed is so far behind like 5 minutes behind lol.
  11. Need to at least get on base this inning and hopefully score a few runs.
  12. Because Hoskins runs slower than Johnny Estrada and he hits into a ton of DP’s. You basically have to run when he is at the plate.
  13. Cowboys and Jets are the two leading teams. I don’t think the Lions or Vikings have the cap room. The Bears do but they need another OL over another WR.
  14. LOL Hader meltdown.
  15. Going off of my last post in the other thread. With this announcement it puts MLB one step closer to a national streaming deal. I wonder if Amazon backed out of supporting Bally due to them not wanting to share as much revenue with Amazon. With Bally all but dead now Amazon, Netflix, Apple, YouTube or Disney could step in here and be the streaming provider for MLB games at least for the non big market teams mainly the Dodgers and Yankees. Blackouts are currently being held up by Bally and the large market teams. This development eliminates one of the holdups for getting rid of the blackout rules. I think the mid and small market teams have enough votes to get rid of the blackout rules. The small and mid market teams may be able to get Chicago on their side along with the Angels. That leaves the Dodgers, Yankees, Mets, Red Sox and Giants in the way of removing the blackout rules. I believe it has to be 100% to remove the blackout rules but I could be wrong.
  16. Wish he did that last year. Would have won game 1 vs the Dbacks.
  17. Well it is my 1on1 with my manager and she canceled like 1 minute before so I can follow a bit now.
  18. Game starts during my 1on1 at work. MLB why didn’t you consult me about the start time?
  19. That is too far of a drive. Maybe if they were on a bus the SS would approve of this but not in a motorcade. The motorcade is only for short distance driving and the distance from the airport to the manufacturing plant is already a rather long drive. The longer you have to drive a motorcade the more possibilities of something happening so the SS will try and keep that at the minimum. So the more likely plan would be: Plane --> Motorcade --> site --> Motorcade --> Plane
  20. Overall sure but I didn’t compare them overall just offensively. Going with WAR is not comparing the same players. If Goldschmidt played as many games at DH as Hoskins did his WAR would be lower. Including xwOBA with wRC+ is a bit confusing as you already have that in wRC+. Goldschmidt’s defense has also been declining and it seems as though he is well below average now defensively at 1B. It doesn’t really make any sense to bring in Goldschmidt he is at best just another Hoskins at this point in his career at an older age. It is more likely that Hoskins improves next year on his numbers than it is for Goldschmidt to do the same.
  21. Regan said just say no to drugs, well I am saying just say no to Goldschmidt. The guy is done he was absolutely horrible with runners on base this year and also with runners not on base. If you think Hoskins has been bad this year Goldschmidt has been worse. He isn’t even an elite defensive 1B anymore either. If Goldschmidt would sign a 1-year $10mm or less contract sure sign him but anything more I hope the Brewers just stay away.
