  1. Martin just got paid, wow. crazy couple of minutes with this and the STL/ATL trade
  2. wowww Heyward/Walden to Cardinals; Shelby Miller/Tyrell Jenkins to Braves
  3. Paramore is big? Who is Paramore? do you have teenagers? they're this teenage-generation version of No Doubt.
  4. Stoked burnett is returning to the pirates since he will fill a spot on that rotation and keep them from going out and loading up on SP (LOLOLOL) 1 year 8 mil
  5. thanks for that team friendly contract, Braun! LUV U
  6. I actually do wonder why the right handed side of the main page does get updated, it actually even has a note that Shea Vuchinich was released. shhhhhhh!!! or that'll stop being updated too!
  7. I love how the main website has not changed one bit lol
  8. they are not going to bring paramore in to play, its going to be a handful of washed up 90's rock bands, one classic rock band and either an old R&B group or a second tier country group. Paramore is so enormous right now, nothing against baseball, but as a former concert promoter, I can tell you that a group on their level will demand far to much money to make any sense after a baseball game.
  9. oh yeah, exactly, they have a very good mid-summer schedule I think, its just if they end up being a "bad road team", it could bite them in the butt in 2015.
  10. I didnt know where to put this, but I just looked over the brewers 2015 schedule to get ideas of possible trips out and noticed that they have only 9 home games in september next season, and 19 on the road. while good for me, since one of those road trips is to pittsburgh... they better be a good road team next year down the stretch or they'll be in trouble!
  11. MOLITOR BOBBLEHEAAADDDDDDDDDDD JUNE 28th! (Edited to add a photo, just because - hawing) http://bapple2286.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/molitor-photo.jpg
  12. he is hands down one of the greatest batters in MLB history. he may not have those "flashy stats", but just take this in for a moment.. Molitor is one of four players in major league history with at least 3,000 hits, a .300 lifetime batting average, and 500 stolen bases. The other three are Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, and Eddie Collins, none of whom played the game beyond 1930, and only the third player (along with Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner) with at least 3,000 hits, 600 doubles and 500 stolen bases. Molitor is the only player ever to accomplish those feats and hit at least 200 home runs. Molitor is also the first player in World Series history to have at least two home runs, two doubles, and two triples in one series (1993). another crazy thing is he has those numbers while playing under half a season in 81, barely any games in 84, and battled injuries in 86, 87 and 90 and a strike-shortened season in 94 where he was hitting .341 with 155 hits in 115 games, on a team that could have gone and won it all again. he gets little recognition for how incredible of a batter he was because he played for Milwaukee, Toronto and Minnesota
  13. just wondering, but was maddon in an option year of his contract? Cubs had a manager still when he opted out of his TB contract, so its not like there was a vacancy there he wanted to go after at that time. did someone say something to him before he opted out of the TB deal that he could have the Cubs job?
  14. Typical brewers fan trade, we get the good and get rid of the "bad"
  15. So how long until collusion charges are filed against epstein, the cubs and maddon by tampa? They better investigate, just seems fishy
  16. Paul Molitor is my all time favorite Brewer. He was the first player I really started cheering for as a kid, other than a young rookie named Gary Sheffield. I think it's such a shame that he's become a big part of the Twins organization, but basically forgotten in Milwaukee. I firmly believe he should have a statue outside Miller Park, right next to Robin Yount's (see the link in my signature). That said, if he gets the Twins managerial job, good for him. I hope he does well. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/report--twins-expected-to-hire-paul-molitor-as-manager-163108617.html Favorite player of all time, really happy for him
  17. Stoked on never having to worry about Estrada ending up in the brewers rotation again!
  18. Farewell Mr. Weeks, thank you for all your contributions to this organization and being one of the first core members of what has been an incredibly fun 10 years of Brewers baseball. Best of luck wherever you end up (as long as its not in st louis) http://i.usatoday.net/sports/_photos/2011/07/17/Weeks-homer-the-difference-in-Brewers-wild-win-237QEOA-x-large.jpg http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hwCKBFqHLZI/TRGiPzKYVnI/AAAAAAAABwQ/SZ5D8PGEZls/s1600/rickie+weeks+slide+brewers+extension.jpg http://i.usatoday.net/communitymanager/_photos/daily-pitch/2011/10/06/weeksx-large.jpg http://media.al.com/sports_impact/photo/9765137-large.jpg
  19. they've done it with a core group of players over the last 5 years, they are a dynasty in my opinion.
  20. In a way that isn't a bad thing. At least winning it in the past isn't the usual rubber stamp it used to be. It might be because I watched fewer games than I listened to this season but I don't think he had his usual, Gomez level, year on defense. I would take him in a heartbeat over anyone else going forward but I can see how one of the others might have had a better year this year. McCutchen I always felt was over rated on defense. He's very good but not in the same class as Gomez. yeah, that was more of my surprise, that neither of the last two gold glovers were given the ol' rubber stampage. McCutchen is, imo, the 3rd best fielder on that Pirates OF with Polanco and Marte out there with him. Polanco is insane, he seemed a little lost in RF, but he's a natural out in CF, where he'll never play because of Cutch.
  21. Billy Hamilton (Cincinnati Reds), Juan Lagares (New York Mets), Denard Span (Washington Nationals) wow, no McCutchen or Gomez?
  22. welcome back, Coles, hope no one offers you a manager spot before the ink dries could he supplant RRR next season if things go south early?
  23. I will be absolutely shocked if a 17 year veteran, who has played 1972 games at one position, switches to another position.
  24. "with aaaaaaaaarms wide oooooooopeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen"
  25. this was enjoyable to read through, especially now that Yost is in the world series. good luck to him and the Kansas City Brewers!
