    "..firing Yost"
  2. uwisfan
    Is he done for the year? my brother claims he saw it scrolling on ESPN. Is he available for postseason or not? (thread title --1992)
  3. uwisfan
    I'm hoping that postseason play for this trade does not include a 1-game playoff possibility..correct?
  4. uwisfan
    the biggest thing Sveum has done so far is "not be yost".. that itself has been huge for this club
  5. uwisfan
    CC is good defensively and in spite of a putrid average, has a good OBP.
  6. uwisfan
    I think some of Escobar's BABIP is sustainable, merely because of his speed.

    there were several plays this past week that I couldnt help but think "If Escobare were there, he'd have that play" to some of JJs miscues where he either couldnt reach it or wasnt able to position himself well enough to play the ball better... even if he's a wash offensively with CC, I think he adds a new dimension to this team.

    Braun never had the range at third that Gamel apparently has. Both had terribly high error totals, but Gamel has more upside.
  9. uwisfan
    Amongst everyday starters, Prince, Rickie, and JJ are actually 1,2, and 3 in OBP. With the Brewers lacking in this area, and with expectations of dropping Rickie soon, it would seem improbable to give up on the top 3 OBP guys in one offseason. Obviously Escobar is going to give us something new, but I wouldnt deal both JJ and Prince for one player. Two high OBP sluggers who are young and recent allstars..doesnt make much sense to me. There are maybe 5 pitchers in the league you would consider that deal for, and Cain wouldnt be one of them. Try getting a fair shake for JJ in the offseason. If nothing happens, start the season and keep negotiating. Let Escobar play in AAA to start or maybe shift him to 2nd (obviously a wast of his talent) if JJ won't move (until u can deal JJ). Prince's trade value is kind of at a low this year. I'd put all my energy into getting him to stay in shape so he can build up his trade value next year. I'd be hesitant to dump a 50 HR/ 380 OBP lefty without good return, but he's eating away his trade value. Gamel is still unproven and his second half disappearing act makes me a bit nervous.

    hopefully he falls apart and Harden comes back to earth
  11. uwisfan
    Braun had about a dozen HRs in the minors when he was called up and basically was knocking them out at the same pace in the majors.. so in mind he's at about 80.. dont know how that compares to the other guys. In fairness, I'm guessing he's a bit older than the others on that list.
  12. uwisfan
    that is fantastic! My favorite minor leaguer and my brother planned an outing to milwaukee for Monday.. pure coincidence that its september callups! I can't believe I might get to see his first game!
  13. uwisfan
    I kind of see it as a "get your head clear" and "see how you adjust" - he was stagnating in AA. I'd like to see a week of no errors and .300+ hitting - that should do it.
  14. uwisfan
    nice way for Gamel to bounce back.. .3 hits tonight
  15. uwisfan
    congrats to Gamel for getting his first AAA hit. Hopefully we can put the first game jitters to rest
  16. uwisfan
    just because agent knows its not a lesser prospect doesnt really eliminate Lucroy or Brantley, though it helps for Lucroy that he's at deep position. Even if he knows Green is in the running, that would be enough info to know its a bigger prospect.
  17. uwisfan
    Gamel is my favorite prospect to follow and I wouldnt vote for him, but I'm heavily following and pulling for him. Hard to vote for him when he's fallen so far offensively after having a weak showing defensively. I would vote his teammate, Escobar, over him easily right now. Edit: Actually, I'd argue that the last thing he needs right now is the added pressure that would come with "Player of the Year" billing.
  18. uwisfan
    make that a golden sombrero..could a 7-2 win be any more depressing?
  19. uwisfan
    I dont think its fair yet to say Escobar's offense will be one of the worst in the majors. If you take out the best 5 offensive shortstops in the game, the rest of the starters are pretty weak offensively. I think Escobar could lead that pack offensively even. His numbers this year have been pretty outstanding for his age and level.

    1 Ned Yost (qualifies as a former player) 2 A Ram 3 Big Z 4 Wes Helms 5 Counsell
  21. uwisfan
    I'd pretty disappointed if he didn't get callup. I know Ned doesn't like to use PRs, but I don't want it to go down like this: - Cubs & Brewers tied for 1st last game of the season, 3-3 in the 9th, - Prince draws a walk, nobody out, Hart up next - Yost looks at his bench.. Dillon, Kapler, Durham, and Counsell - No reason to keep Prince in the rest of the game at this point..just need to bring Prince home I think you have to have a pinch runner that can bring in that run. also, I really want to see Escobar.. I think he can help this team now.
  22. uwisfan
    Escobar has taken the league in batting average with a 3-hit performance so far
  23. uwisfan
    I would definitely like to see Escobar called up. With his defense and now bat (2nd in the league in BA now), he could prove to be an interesting piece to this team.
  24. uwisfan
    I think Jack Z has done well enough in the 2nd round with hitters that you'd have to consider any 2nd rounder by the 15 range..
  25. uwisfan
    if he can leg out 3 triples, maybe he could play CF? we could use someone there.
