reilly, I came on brewerfan to read a summary on a path to the future and your post was exactly what i was looking for. well-written and i agree with everything. too bad that's where we're at but what're you gonna do. at this point just STOCK prospects.
http://grantland.com/features/worst-mlb-contracts-2015-alex-rodriguez-ryan-howard-prince-fielder/ some real ugly ones in there. a few former Brewers on there. Certainly happy calling them former Brewers now when looking at those contracts. Woof! Fielder 6 yrs, 144 mill! Would have been happy to get (and certainly would've been more reasonable) them at the Melvin special of 4-5 yrs $100 million.
