  1. Gamel and Farris. I don't know if he's worth it, I don't think so myself (Gamel and 1B next year). But his biggest attribute is his versatility, which is great, but not very valuable. He's solid, but I don't think the Rays would turn that down and it wouldn't hurt this year's team. Definitely a downgrade this year for the Rays, but if they struggle in June/July I could see them doing it. When is Zobrist a free agent? Of course if Gamel's value is really as low as some say, then I wouldn't trade him for anybody this year. If Gamel can't get a Zobrist type player, then why bother trading him.
  2. Peralta or Rogers would be deal breakers for me. I can't see giving up 6 years of guys that are so close to contributing with big potential like those two for a mid season acquisition of Reyes. Everyone else is fair game for me and he would be a huge in season addition at a definite weak spot.
  3. I wonder if he could throw the other three in their once in a while. Especially The Good, Bad, and Ugly. I think that would be great for a couple times during the year.
  4. Second the Judgement Night soundtrack, very good. The song with De La Soul isn't rock and roll, but its a pretty good one. There's a guy called Atmoshpere out of Minneapolis that is pretty good, and Anthrax's "I'm the Man" is hilarious. I think its on the same album as "Bring the Noise." The Roots-When Things Fall Apart is probably one of my favorite albums of all-time. Very good collaboration with Mos Def on "Double Trouble."
  5. Thank you for the heads up, got 4 in loge outfield.
  6. If its the same prospect I'm thinking of, he may be moved to second. I think they don't have a true prospect at 2B when the rest of their guys come up. I could be wrong though.
  7. As long as Wisconsin still plays NDU, CC and the like, I don't have a big problem. Television coverage would be nice also. But I still think the WCHA has the better programs, if not about even. UM, Michigan, State, and WI vs. CC, Denver, UMD, and NDU. Plus St Cloud has put together a respectable program. Wisconsin playing a 1 game against CC and Denver during a road trip, like was mentioned earlier seems ideal to keep the rivalries relevant. Myself, I enjoy the UND, UMD, CC, Denver games more than any throughout the year, except for beating up on Minnesota. I'm not as familar with ECHA (I think thats what its called), but they should also still have some stellar programs. If this means more tv coverage, I'm all for it and I don't see how the other conferences could be hurt too much. They both still have a good number of teams, and some very good programs as well. The Big Ten won't be the powerhouse of college hockey.
  8. Saw Johnny Lang at the State Theater in Eau Claire last night, great show. Did not know he was from Fargo, for a kid from the Dakotas he can rip the guitar.
  9. If Braddock not throwing 96 in the middle of March means this team can't win 80 games, i gotta wonder if who says it follows sports. 7 or 8 guys in the pen that can bring it, Stetter can't, but the rest throw hard. If Rickie and Corey improve this team could be really good. Last year was Braun and Fielder's bottom, I see Mcgehee as the same guy he was last year. To me I cannot understand how a scout could think we could be awful. 1-3 looks pretty good, i'm alright with 4 and 5. The D may be a concern but there is no way the defense could negate the rest. scouts are dumb
  10. Just giving him an extra half million would probably set a bad precendent for the future. You give it to Casey, why not Lucroy, Axford, Braddock? Eventually that will add up pretty quick.
  11. Went to a buddies for NFCCG and had wonton shells with pepperjack cheese and chopped chives deeped fried, they were excellent. We didn't, but you could dip them in sour cream if you wanted. It was quite the spread with taco and artichoke dips, crab cakes, and grilled shrimp and steak, bunch of other stuff too. My buddy does catering at a golf course so everything was excellent.
  12. It's true we lost a lot of years of cost controlled players, but how many years does it usually take for a player to reach their potential in the bigs. Rickie did it last year and he'll be a free agent next year. We got two frontline starters in their prime for two years. I don't agree you can count all 6.5 years of a player and say they will contribute for all those, more realistically it's maybe 3.5 years if they ever do reach their true potential. And while we wait for them to reach that potential we have a weakness on the team until they can truly contribute. Our system is pretty weak but our MLB team looks really good, and that is something I am really excited about. Pretty much everyone on our team, aside from CF, C, and SS, are proven ML contributors and most are in their prime. The bullpen is pretty young but most have shown they can handle big league hitters.
  13. So the Brewers are the mystery team? This offseason is confusing.
  14. I would have to say I would take: O Cab, Renteria, any guy named Izturis, and probably a Lopez before I would talk to Punto (I would be happier with a Cruz than Punto). Point being, Punto is not very good.
  15. Can Keppinger play short? if he were a decent glove he would fit exactly what the Brewers need. Let him and Betancourt fight it out for the starting SS and the other is utility. Add Counsel to that and we have bases covered.
  16. i like that idea, except hart has a hard time judging balls in right. him in center would not be good. a ball hit right at him would be scary. bring cam back or leave gomez out there. we need good defense now that we have a staff. i would trade gamel for upton in a heartbeat, if that happened we would have everything we wished Gomez could be.
