  1. First we were carried by Jesus, now Christian. Is Angel Pagan still available?
  2. We should be ready for a nice Moooooooose chant at Miller Park due to years of perfecting the John Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhn
  3. Too early for defensive replacements? As Shaw passes his first test, but on the left side. That wasn't the test for Shaw, hit right at him. The test is a ball he has to range for, and turning a DP
  4. Shaw throws it around the horn pretty well from the 2B spot, I was worried he was going to just throw it back to the pitcher
  5. We traded Gorman Thomas and others for #2 pick Rick Manning We signed Ben McDOnald, a #1 pick, traded him but then traded back for him 3 months later. We also signed Tyler Houston so we had the top 2 pics from the 89 draft.
  6. Makes sense he would sit against the Mad "the psycho" Bum. The key is if he hugs someone, then he was traded
  7. Doubt it. The Brewers are thin at 3B unless the Brewers think Donaldson can come back next year and be a serviceable 3B, I don't think he can stay healthy for a whole year at 3B and is probably more of a DH or 1B than he is a 3B going forward. The Brewers won't be able to afford Machado who would be the best option at 3B this off season. I just don't see how the Brewers could trade Shaw right now as there is a big black hole in the minors at 3B for the Brewers. I have no idea, but is Hiura a candidate to move to 3B?
  8. If true that is not that bad of a trade for the Royals. Kind of an overpay for Moustakas. I'd say so for 2 months of a guy with a .309 OBP at a position we don't need
  9. I feel like if Jeffress ever got on base he would not be joking and fraternizing with the opposing first baseman, and i like that.
  10. I'll take Boggs. Even though Boggs had a lower career SLG his OPS was a point higher than Brett's. OPS+ they are close also at 131 for Boggs and 135 for Brett. Career WAR wise they are also close with Boggs up by 2.7. Boggs and Brett are pretty close so I don't think you could go wrong with either of them. Yup that is why it is a great debate. The greatest ever is Ty Cobb or Willie Mays in CF, although now we may be seeing the final answer to that question...Trout.
  11. Both great players, but if I were a manager, I'd rather have Brett. I think he could just do more. Boggs was the better glove man, but I don't think the gap is as big as these metrics make it. I always thought Brett was pretty good defensively (I've given up trying to understand defensive historical metrics). Brett had better power, and had speed that Boggs could never touch. Off the field they are close as well. Boggs with an outstanding mustache and was known to eat lots of fried chicken and drink lots of beer. but
  12. I also missed one since he was so far behind the leader, but 1973 George Scott I just looked at that 1987 season and Boggs OPS was .461/.588/1.049 and Molitor’s was .438/.566/1.003 and they finished 9th and 5th respectively in MVP voting. George Bell won the MVP with .352/,605/.957 but had 47 HR, 134 RBI. Boggs had 8.3 WAR, Trammel 8.2, Molitpr 6.0 and Bell was 9th with 5.0. Roger Clemens actually led the AL with 9.4 WAR. I knew Boggs was good but I was really surprised how good he was that year. Same with Trammel. A great debate, who was better, Boggs or Brett?
  13. Mets are blue and orange, no? This is what I was thinking of, but I have been using the trivia question for like 15 years so maybe its out of date
  14. It’s either the Orioles or the Mets I think. Had something to do with orange. Hmmm maybe the Mets have updated, you may be right with them. Not Orioles but I am still thinking of another team
