    I truly believe Doug Melvin's biggest issue sometimes is trying to prove everyone that he was right in the long run, rather than accepting maybe he was wrong and moving in a different direction. Why do you have this belief, rather than believing that Melvin is basically just too conservative, and hesitant to sit down a player when he believes that player has shown in the past that they could get the job done? Melvin let Hardy OPS .667 until August 11th, and let the Brewers fall 6.5 games back before he finally demoted him. How is that an example of Melvin trying to prove to everyone that he was right? I don't want to rehash the entire 2009 Hardy incident, but I do think it provides evidence contrary to your belief.

    'm not in favor of selling, but comparisons to the '87 Twins are way off the mark. Sure a team can get hot and win a couple of series that it shouldn't, maybe even the World Series, the 2006 Cardinals proved that too. However, using a once in a generation anomoly as a standard of performance seems misguided at best to me, throwing out the exception to the rule as definitive proof of possible success? The point of bringing up the 87 Twins isn't that the Brewers are likely to win the WS. It's to show that it can be done. And of course, two mid 80s teams wining the World Series in the past quarter century is much better odds than some silly comparison to the lottery. Talk about way off the mark. I believe that the Brewers chances of winning a World Series are higher with this current roster than they would be at some tenuous future date with the prospects obtained from trading away the current players. If someone is convinced that trading away current players will provide a better shot at winning the World Series, I would like that person to provide a convincing case of specifically who would be obtained by trading away current Brewers and when those players would come together with current Brewers prospects and show a future roster. If someone can't do that, they are just lazy and not basing their argument on any kind of logic.
