  1. I wonder if Weeks will ever stop chasing the outside offspeed pitch. Maybe I'm not remembering correctly but it seems to me that last season he was laying off that pitch more....
  2. Brian Anderson : Fiers has been very "Greinke-like" so far this season... Ummmm, no actually BA, Fiers has been better than Greinke
  3. Hart will be a free agent after the 2013 season. Ramirez is overpaid (or, will be very overpaid in '13 & '14) and that money could be better spent in other places. Trading both of them could bring back some very good players. It is extremely unlikely that the Brewers will trade Hart or Ramirez at this time
  4. Well, Roenicke is certainly very familiar with Earl Weaver's concepts, as his brother Gary Roenicke was a huge part of the Orioles outfield platoons once upon a time. Add Khris Davis to the mix, that kid is straight up tearing up AA ball right now, batting over .350 and hitting over .500 this season vs LHP!
  5. After a horrible start, Gindl has hit .333 in July with a .915 OPS. He's only 23. I don't know if they are counting on him to be an every day player but it is certainly too early to give up on him. He has pretty dramatic lefty-righty splits this year: hitting .287 vs RHP, .197 vs LHP, and he may end up being a valuable platoon player in MLB
  6. check out Fiers' minor league stats: a career 2.80 minor league ERA. A 2.63 ERA in AAA The guy has been getting it done at every level http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=fiers-001mic
  7. That is Greinke's career ERA+. Is Zack a legit #1 or #2? Seriously, I think Fiers has a chance to put up numbers that are equal to or better than Greinke
  8. Is a 3.79 ERA and 115 ERA+ the numbers of a #1 or #2 pitcher? I could see Fiers being at least that good
  9. I think Narveson will have value coming out of the bullpen in 2013 & 2014. He is, after all, a LHP. I don't see him in a starting role in the future
  10. I'm in love with the idea of Marcum signing a one year incentive laden contract for 2013 that would enable him to reestablish his value prior to the 2014 season... a multi-year contract though? No way
  11. I am cautiously optimistic in my thinking that Fiers could be a legit #1 or #2 pitcher someday....
  12. It is easy to overlook the human side of the game sometimes... these guys are gonna miss their buddy: http://instagram.com/p/Nm_h0ovjzJ/
  13. I'll join you in the minority adambr2, I'm glad we didn't overpay for Zack, and I say that as a Greinke fan... now if we can get out from under that ridiculous Aramis Ramirez contract I'll feel even better (edited to spell Zack correctly!)
  14. The Angels & Greinke will be taking a good look at each other in these next few months. We'll see how Zach does. He wasn't exactly lights out in the playoffs last year. I think a lot of Brewers fans really overrate Greinke based on his stuff and his Cy Young season. I don't think he's anywhere close to as good as Hamels and while it is closer I don't think he's as good as Cain either.... He still could get a big payday based on the lack of great pitchers in free agency next year
  15. He genuinely loves it in Milwaukee. As others have mentioned in this thread and elsewhere, it really isn't likely that the Brewers would, or even could, put that much $$$ into one pitcher (and I will add, especially a pitcher with a 113 ERA+!)
  16. I am extremely optimistic about the longterm potential of Michael Fiers....
  17. The 2012 Baseball Prospectus listed Jean Segura's comparables as Eduardo Nunez or Erick Aybar with a ceiling of: Robin Yount
  18. even if he turns into Kameron Loe 2.0 , he can help the team I'm really thrilled about getting Segura, I think his bat has a high ceiling
  19. Segura & Pena had much different experiences in the 2012 Future Stars Game: Segura went 2 for 3, whereas Pena got raked on http://losangeles.angels.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120708&content_id=34746734&vkey=news_ana&c_id=ana
  20. "He just shows a skill set that's special," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "He's not the finished product ... there's no doubt that there's some growth that has to happen with Seggy, and it will over time. He's a talented guy, and when he gets his opportunity, he'll be ready for it." Segura said he'd play whenever and wherever the team wanted him to. But he acknowledged that the Angels have a business decision to make about his future. "I'm not worrying about getting traded," he said. "I'm here, and I want to be part of the Angels, but if they did (trade me), it's OK. It's (their) job." http://www.ocregister.com/sports/angels-365653-segura-team.html
