  1. Sure, I can imagine a lot of 2-1, 3-1 losses for the Brewers in that scenario.
  2. It'd be cool but as great as he is I don't think he alone could put the team over Atlanta. This lineup would still have a few black holes of suck.
  3. I'm wondering the same thing about Adames more and more.
  4. From a few different places around the end of June. Whatever the health issue is it seems like it's probably not directly baseball related.
  5. That seems like a lot to give up for a pitcher who has been horrible in back to back seasons.
  6. Are there teams knocking down the door to acquire him?
  7. The Dodgers have a never ending stream of pitching prospects they keep bringing up. I don't know what they could possibly learn from us.
  8. I think if you combine the two rosters you've got a pretty good ballclub - the Milwaukinanni Red Brews.
  9. Have you been watching this team at all? Any random dude with 7 ERA is just as likely to dominate as anyone else.
  10. Ohtani will be an interesting X factor this trade deadline. Not because he might be traded but how many teams are going to avoid adding payroll beyond this season hoping to have room to sign him this winter? I think that alone might keep Arenado from getting traded. Especially to a big market team.
  11. I'm sure it will cost more than some throwaway prospect but I think most are way overestimating what it would cost to acquire him. Teams don't give up much of anything for one year rentals anymore.
  12. I don't think Hiura fixes anything but we've got a whole thread about trading for a 1B in the rumor forum talking about marginal upgrades that will cost prospects and/or money. Keston costs nothing but the roster spot of one of our current horrible hitting players.
  13. Claiming some random 4A player most likely.
  14. Every year from May through at least the end of July. I just had to fish a bunch out of the kiddie pool last week.
  15. I'll make a bold prediction that he will not be in Nashville past the trade deadline. He will either be in Milwaukee or traded. I think they'll make every effort to acquire a hitter that improves the lineup (and when that inevitably fails because they'll never give up what it takes for that kind of hitter) they'll bite the bullet and DFA Winkler and bring Keston up to DH the rest of the year.
  16. I didn't get a chance to watch his debut so I don't know how he looked but his stat line was nothing eye popping. I will say though that I'm over the whole idea of being intrigued by guys who throw really hard and I think MLB batters are too. I understand why it's a good thing and you'd rather have someone who throws upper 90's than lower 90's but I don't think it's that much of a game changing weapon anymore. Look at Jordan Hicks. He can reach 100 and has nasty movement yet his strikeout rate is pretty pedestrian for a guy who throws as hard as he does. There were two guys brought up by other teams this year that throw well over 100, one by the Angels and one by the Braves, neither did anything spectacular in the bigs and one is injured and the other's back in the minors. Which highlights the other problem is that most guys who routinely touch 100 are also routinely injured.
  17. Interesting that the Rays did a similar thing. Brought a guy for one day and then released him to sign in Japan. The Japan deal was agreed to before he was even called up.
  18. Considering the current string of "OMG why haven't they called this guy up!?!?!" guys that have sucked, I'll temper my expectations.
  19. Ruiz is basically Billy Hamilton - can't hit for power, can't get on base, plays average at best defense, but can steal a lot of bases. I suppose there is some bit of value to a player like that but not a whole lot.
  20. You see it happen with pitchers but are we now putting position players on the IL just because they suck too?
  21. I feel like we said that for all of Rickie Week's career.
  22. That's just...wow. What a terrible hitting team.
  23. Jones swung at a first pitch fastball over the heart of the plate. That alone is a major improvement over most of the rest of this team. As for Hiura, his next time on the Brewers major league roster is his last as they can't send him down without his permission and I don't know why he would want to stick around here. They're not going to bring him up unless they feel that he is absolutely ready and they know they can give him starts nearly everyday.
  24. Since this seems to be a pro-Hiura, anti-Adames thread, Wily is 6 for his last 18. Only posting that to provide both sides. I'm not really a fan of Wily.
  25. Such is the life of a 4A players these days. Unless an infielder gets hurt while Anderson is gone I'm sure Jones will be DFA'd when he comes back.
