    87/29 K/BB over 74.1 IP is pretty solid for Thornburg this season, its a shame he's going to be 0-10 in 15 games started

    they'll platoon LF when braun serves his 100 game suspension

    thats how I took it initially as well. I agree with this could be a window to trade KRod to detroit, happy he got #300 with the brewers, but time to shop him out!

    there wasnt another narveson thread about his DL stint, so I figure this is the next best place to post McCalvy's tweet

    #Brewers reinstated Chris Narveson from the DL and outrighted him to Nashville, removing him from the 40-man roster. — Adam McCalvy (@AdamMcCalvy) June 21, 2013

    Apparently Narveson was removed from the 40-man roster and outrighted to Nashville... does this belong here? #Brewers reinstated Chris Narveson from the DL and outrighted him to Nashville, removing him from the 40-man roster. — Adam McCalvy (@AdamMcCalvy) June 21, 2013

    out until all-star break.... smells like someones appealing a 100 game suspension to me

    Interesting tidbit there that I bolded. If it is true that Braun's name can't be connect to PED's but still connected to the clinic, does MLB think they can really get away with suspending him? you should read this thread from the start, that has been debated some already in better detail than what i'll say. Tested positive or otherwise violates the program by use or possession of a performance enhancing drug will be subject to penalty. so they dont have to prove that he USED PED's, they just have to show that Braun, and his money records in question, are connected to possession of PED's.

    I had no idea Peralta has only been pitching for 7 years. thats crazy.
  12. torts
    what? is he abnoxious and un-funny or something? I dont get this reference. clearly, he's not dead.
  13. torts
    so wait, you trade Aoki, and then who becomes the leadoff batter? Brewers struggled for years to find a consistant leadoff batter and they finally get one, just in time for you all to want him traded!

    15 of 17? LOL come on now, how is that even realistic at this point?
  15. torts
    will never happen.

    so I got the jersey this morning, and here are some pictures I hastely took before going in to work this morning... looks pretty solid to me! Saved over $270 by buying it directly from China instead of through MLB.com/shop, who describe the product as Made In America, but the Origins are from China. Cut out the middle man looking to make a buck off of third-world labor.. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v470/xmiketortix/20130613_095443_zps1da0ee45.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v470/xmiketortix/20130613_095501_zps0a42d389.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v470/xmiketortix/20130613_095512_zps2cecd861.jpg

    Brewers won 10-1 last night? OH YEAH http://cdn.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/chewbacca15.gif

    just wondering, but what are Gamel's splits like? Could a platoon of Gamel/Morris make sense at 1B?
  20. torts
    In all honesty, of all the reasons to not like him as a prospect his failings in spring training and april are very low on my list. Yeah, I want to see him have another solid season but plenty of guys have bad springs and aprils and end up just fine. heck, every day MLB players have tough March-Aprils, I dont fault a MiLB prospect for struggling in Spring training

    I love that about the NHL.

    sorry for neglecting this thread everyone, busy time of the year for work right now and working on a couple very time-consuming classes in grad school on top of it. i'll start bringing back the gif's soon enough

    good points, everyone. I would think that they would probably have to restrict the rounds available to be traded, like the top 10 rounds, those tied to slot money. But I disagree with the argument that poor teams would stay poor. If anything, using Pittsburgh as an example, this could be the year that they could go after a big bat, or big arm, with dangling their 1st rd pick of 2014, to help the franchise push itself over the .500 hump for the first time in 20 years. Would losing a top 10 pick for 2 years of control of a solid pitcher be worth it to a team on the cusp of winning? I think so. In the other leagues i guess you just dont see the parity you see in MLB, with certain franchises always winning and others always losing. I think the ability to get additional picks in rounds would help those struggling teams turn around quicker than normal..
  24. torts
    if the draft still has the signing pool, i dont think you could ever trade picks and NOT attach that money along with it.
  25. torts
    thats right, the compensatory picks being traded was added in the current CBA, but those can only be traded before the trade deadline at the end of July
