  1. The Brewers are basically headed towards another Hardy/Escobar situation with Segura and Sardinas/Arcia. If Segura turns it around with the bat he's your SS but Sardinas and Arcia are both a better defensive option at SS and the best thing for the team would be to move Segura to 3B (or maybe 2B). However, if Segura does in fact turn it around is he going to accept a "demotion" to another position for an unproven rookie?
  2. He's a relief pitcher. They really don't need stamina. Broxton has never looked like he's in any sort of shape other than round his whole career.
  3. This is MLB Trade Rumors list of potential 3B free agents for the upcoming offseason. Joaquin Arias (31) Mike Aviles (35) Gordon Beckham (29) Willie Bloomquist (38) Kevin Frandsen (34) David Freese (33) Jonathan Herrera (31) Maicer Izturis (35) – $3MM club option with a $1MM buyout Don Kelly (36) Jeff Keppinger (36) Casey McGehee (32) Aramis Ramirez (38) Sean Rodriguez (31) Juan Uribe (37) There is no one on that list worth any free agent money. Maybe Freese returns to the numbers he put up in his early Cardinal days. Maybe McGehee strings together 2 good seasons in a row. Otherwise it's just trash. The 2016 3B is either currently in the organization or will be traded for, but he won't (shouldn't) be any of those free agents.
  4. I agree none of them have the offense to play 3B but they are the best the organization has right bow and I think there is a very good chance one of them sees significant time there next year.
  5. First base is really the only place without any ready options. With Segura, Scooter, Sardinas, Gomez, Arcia, and Rivera that's plenty of options for 2B, 3B, and SS. Maybe Braun or Coulter gets moved to first to round it out.
  6. Sure, start him against lefties but for the love of god don't bat him leadoff against anyone but Ron will do it anyway.
  7. Sure, the blame goes to the parents but you can't just treat the kids like nothing wrong happened. Whether or not the kids knew what they were doing, they broke the rules.
  8. Not sure what your qualifications are Jericho or what you are looking for, but keep plugging away. When I graduated from college over 25 years ago, I had a whole binder of rejection letters. At least 30 of them. Not sure why I kept them at the time. Many of them were rejections before I could even get a resume. Other than my college degree and a mediocre 3.0 GPA, my resume was pretty thin. I finally landed a job that did not pay very well (compared to what other grads I knew were getting at the time), but gave me the opportunity to prove myself and make connections. Never really had to go through that again. For the most part the jobs I took since that time were through people that I had already worked for and knew what I was capable of. Stick with it, it will pay off in the long run. I have a job right now. It has very little to do with my field and I'm just sick of it. It took me almost 4 years after finishing college to find a "real" job and that one lasted all of 4.5 months before I was laid off. Not that I was complaining at the time, the boss was/is an actual crook and human garbage (I've complained about him many times on here before). I was then out of work for a year until I got the job I currently have and I've just had enough of it. Since I graduated college I've pretty much spent the majority of the last 7ish years job searching. I've just had enough of it. There's been too many jobs I've really had my heart set on and truly got excited about that I haven't gotten. I've interviewed for the job that I checked every box of the job description. No go. I've interviewed for the job where I was in very good with the decision makers and had people on the inside pulling for me. No go. I've interviewed for the job where I had all the connections and experience for the position. No go. I've even interviewed for a job where I had previously held that same job at another place and didn't get it because, as I found out later, they had already made their decision about who to hire before they even posted the job.
  9. 5 job interviews in the last 4 months and 5 rejections. I'm at the point where I'd rather not even get interviews anymore. It's less depressing.
  10. Tried that. I hope not. The other channels we don't get ask me if I want to upgrade when I go to them but MLB Network doesn't. If I call and make a big enough scene will they just give it to me for free?
  11. More wholesome? There's a whole lot of cheating on significant others, getting drunk and doing stupid things, breaking the law, encouraging ignorance, and destroying others' personal property in country music.
  12. I've got Charter and since they started showing ST games I haven't been able to watch MLB Network. When I go to the channel it brings up a blue screen that says "Not Authorized". Now the channels I don't get it then asks me if I would like to upgrade but with MLB Network it doesn't. The first time it happened was when I was trying to watch the Brewers but they were on FSN at the same time so I just figured it was blacked out on MLBN like it did when I had Dish but now it does it all the time.
  13. Does the team need 3 CF'ers? The only value Logan has is his defense, with Parra and Gomez already on the roster he isn't needed. I don't know if Long is the answer but someone other than Schafer should make the team this year.
  14. http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/03/19/joe-west-ejects-a-j-pierzynski-by-calmly-telling-the-braves-dugout-you-need-a-new-catcher/ I'm torn between liking this (because it's pretty funny) and being upset by it (because Joe West is such a huge turd).
  15. If anything this means he's on the hot seat even more. It's basically the "vote of confidence" from management that leads to a swift firing. Most managers are paid so little the length of their contract is irrelevant. I think the only way Ron is back for 2016 is if the Brewers make the playoffs.
  16. The new stuff isn't even country. It's like a combination of pop and rap with beer, trucks, and tractors.
  17. 93.5 and 99.7, two of my favorite radio stations, have switched to country in the last few months. If 94.3 switches I may never listen to the radio again.
  18. My Aunt got me a personalized Brewers jersey/shirt for Christmas a few years ago that I've worn only a couple times because I feel kind of ridiculous wearing it. I personally have no problem with people who have them though.
  19. After watching that clip I don't see what problem Williams would have. The baserunner did something stupid and Harper threw him out. Harper may have goated him a little bit but most of what happened was on the runner. Sounds to me it's more like Williams trying to act big and put on a show to show that's he's the boss.
  20. Scott Boras opens big fat mouth and says: Theo Epstein responds with: Nicely played Theo, nicely played. I certainly agree that the current system is hurting the players but Scott Boras is generally an idiot when he opens his mouth.
  21. I have no idea what you are saying. Now get off my lawn!
  22. I was wondering what was up since I don't remember seeing his name in any box scores yet. Seems weird considering how he talked about how much he loved the game and playing just a few weeks ago and all it took was a stiff neck for him to call it quits.
  23. Ruben Sierra's attempt to run the bases 10ish years ago.
  24. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2394884-how-a-gruesome-surgery-saved-mike-napolis-mlb-career?utm_source=cnn.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=cnn-sports-bin Good lord, I don't know if I could go through that.
  25. Anyone else following Will Ferrell's 5 games/9 positions/10 teams quest today? Watching him play infield defense he does a better job of moving on the pitch than most of my high school players. I'm most interested in seeing if he's going to actually catch or pitch. I can't imagine he'd do either one of those very well.
