  1. Taylor Williams is another guy it is hard not to be down on. Feels like he could be a good one but gets hit pretty hard and often. He and Barnes.
  2. Maybe this is how we open up a hole for Huira later in the year? Shaw shifts to 1B, Moose to 3B, and Huira to 2B. Sorry guys forgot the F in shifts.
  3. Braun not happy with his single... "that's ***** terrible" as he is talking to our first base coach.
  4. Aguilar was the perfect candidate for selling high. I think he just has a first half to remember that he'll never come close to duplicating. Maybe his second half lowered his trade value, or maybe not, but it looks to me like the right side of the infield is a liability. I've thought many times of trading for Goldschmidt and moving Aguilar/Thames. Thus letting Huira play 2B eventually this season.
  5. What we saw was a young, inconsistent starter. Very similar to what Peralta showed last year. And people are pretty much all over the map on Peralta. But you're right ... we're going to have to live through these guys' growing pains. They'll be better if the team sticks with them. I would've really liked to have seen Burnes get into his secondary pitches more the third time through. That is my complaint (other than giving up gopher balls).
  6. A really nice at-bat by Pina there. I'm trying to stay positive about Thames and Aguilar but I really am not happy we went with them going forward. I just don't think they are very good.
  7. The way Burnes start is looked at changes when he gives up that 4th run. Not saying that is right but if he holds them to 3-runs, the line just looks better and people are more positive about it IMO.
  8. But when do you give guys like our trio a chance at being a starting pitcher? It’s not like they aren’t talented enough to be starters. I just don’t think you can keep them relieving for multiple seasons.
  9. They keep talking about his arsenal of pitches. Does Pina not know of this? Or is it just Rock being, well, Rock?
  10. Cool strikeouts Burnes. Now keep the ball in the ballpark or we might as well start Anderson.
  11. I smell the fear of being called out and having little to no actual factual information to display to make a case.
  12. I think the point is that having one more starter gives flexibility to either use one of the starters as a way to bolster the bullpen, or insurance against ineffectiveness should one of them prove unready. That's the reason I'd support signing him. I just don’t want it to hinder the next step in the process of our younger pitchers. While depth is great and I’m a huge advocate of building as much of it as you can, I also feel like the time is now to let out young pitchers have at it in the roatation.
  13. Or maybe ... and stay with me here ... they've determined that Kimbrel is asking for way too much, and the production doesn't equal the cost. The team has a record payroll (by far actually), yet there are still fans complaining that they aren't spending more. This team has been a contender more often than it hasn't under Attanasio's ownership, yet we have fans that are calling him a cheap liar. I'm sorry, but that is just flat out wrong. Then why tell a fan we’re trying to get him? If that’s the case just say you’ve moved on. Their payroll as a % of their revenue(now this is truly record- breaking, their revenue) isn’t record breaking. The payroll is, that’s all. There are much worse owners in baseball than Attanasio, but don’t play the fans, and say what’s really not true. Be honest. You literally don’t know Jack-squat about what he’s willing to do or not. Stop attacking him on the basis of little to no facts that you try to bring up in every dang thread around here. MA has been a great owner for Milwaukee and if you’re blinded by the fact that he also is a business owner that wants to continue to build his wealth then I don’t knows what to tell ya. He’s not “playing” anyone. You fall over every word said by him, TomH or whoever else doesn’t agree with your agenda as to where YOU see the payroll or to how YOU think improvements shouldn’t be made to the club.
  14. If signing Keuchel means moving Woodruff to the pen, count me out.
  15. What. The. Heck. Are. You. Talking. About. Who lets a beat writer set them off so much?!? Lol you can’t make this stuff up.
  16. We are the best team in baseball!
  17. Arcia had to be the guy who needed a fast start the most. We can't do another sub .500 OPS for most of the season. Seem to work out okay a year ago.
  18. He must have hit it hard... but right at the Cardinals shortstop. Can we get Hiura up and Moose at short yet? Not quite yet, we'll let you know. It will be somewhere between never and the day after never.
