POST 2,000 FOR ME!! Woohooo! Have a long ways to go to catch Mr. 4,000 though.
-
If he's not traded this year it will be a big waste of a resource. He'll only be another year older next season and as a catcher, that's not good.

Simple Change to Fix Drafting/Tanking of All Major Sports
pacopete4 replied to rickh150's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Buster Olney can buzz off. Guys like him shouldn't even be allowed to weigh in on the Brewers organization. Until the playing field is more even for large and small market franchises, guys like him can get lost. Does he even know where Milwaukee is? -
This is just having a pretty bad attitude man. Of course we would all love to be heading towards the season feeling as though this year could be the year we finally win the prize but no matter if we stood pat and added players or traded them all away like we are attempting to do, it wasn't in the cards and it probably wouldn't have been for this group of guys. They are still missing pitching badly. People are excited to see that we are moving towards the next group of players and hopefully we find that group of pitchers that we need to win the who dang thing. Everyone on this board will have the "I told you moments" but the great thing about this board is that we don't have a lot of people that want to flaunt that around. It makes discussion here all that much greater. Cheer up man, it'll all be okay. Give Stearns a chance to prove his plan could work.

I'm just looking for them to continue to stay hot and knock off Michigan State. They do that and things can get really interesting down the home stretch of games.

Khris Davis is a fine player to have if he is meant to be your 6-7 hitter and playing DH with spot starts in LF. There's not ill feelings towards him, he's just not a good fit for the new regime in Milwaukee. Hopefully Santana takes the next step and will be as good offensively or very close to it but providing above avg. defense in a corner OF spot.

All about getting hot at the right time. Happ is going to be awesome to see progress.

International draft with the draft slot money pre determined. Either you sign, or you don't but the money doesn't change no matter what team it is. -
If Lucroy and Braun are traded I would call 74 ambitious. I'm basing it on the pitching staff. Won't be great but it'll be good enough to be competitive. Oh and Braun is going no where. He, unlike that chump Lucroy, will be here to lead the next wave of great Brewers towards a World Series.
-
The Brewers will win 74 games. Book it.
-
You really have to get over strikeouts. Cubs lead the league last season in K's followed by the Astros. They didn't have too much trouble winning games. Pitching, pitching, pitching is how it's done.

Just an awesome game last night for Wisconsin. Played a TEAM game once again and completely shutdown one of the best in the nation. It was truly needed because it feels as though they are looking for reasons to keep Wisconsin out. I'm really excited to see how they do in their next two games because I'll be at the Iowa-Wisconsin game on the 24th. If they can knock off Mich. St. on the road and take care of Illinois at home, that Iowa game will be absolutely amazing to be at. No one gives this team a chance and Gard is quietly making them a dangerous factor for the Big Ten Tourney and March Madness. Love it!

Looking at the stats further Olmos has some pretty good stats against left handed batters. Possible Loogy with him.
-
How come? He wasn't even very good in the minors. Whip at 1.5 where as Nolin was about 1.2. Higher ERA. Reliver only where as Nolin can start games.
-
It's possible the A's didn't say who they would get rid of. Possibly hoping he clears to AAA.
-
No.
-
Hard to compare numbers because at 21/22 Davis was playing A ball in Wisconsin while Domingo is hitting major league pitching. Yes, he strikes out too often. But that can come as he ages as well. It is foolish to not give a guy like him ample playing time to find the strike zone and live in it.

Traded INF Luis Sardinas to Seattle for OF Ramon Flores(23). Claimed OF Kirk Nieuwenhuis(28) off waivers from the N.Y. Mets and 1B Andy Wilkins(27) from Texas. Claimed C Josmil Pinto(26) off waivers from San Diego. Agreed to terms with 3B Will Middlebrooks(27) on a minor league contract. Agreed to terms with 1B Chris Carter(29) on a one-year contract. Traded SS Jean Segura and RHP Tyler Wagner to Arizona Diamondbacks for RHP Chase Anderson(28), 3B Aaron Hill(33), SS Isan Diaz and cash. Traded LF Rymer Liriano(24) to Milwaukee Brewers for LHP Trevor Seidenberger. Signed free agent LF Eric Young Jr.(30) to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training. Traded 1B Jason Rogers to Pittsburgh Pirates for CF Keon Broxton(25) and RHP Trey Supak. Claimed RHP Zack Jones(25) off waivers from Minnesota Twins. Traded C Manny Pina(28) to Milwaukee Brewers. Completes the November 18 trade. Claimed 2B Colin Walsh(26) off waivers from Oakland Athletics. Traded 3B Garin Cecchini(24) to Milwaukee Brewers for cash. Traded SS Jonathan Villar(24) to Milwaukee Brewers for RHP Cy Sneed. Either you do not know what exclusively means or your head has been in the sand. While there has been a lot of action towards the young prospects, Stearns has also done a nice job using resources to get some fresh players, some who still hold somewhat of a high upside, into Milwaukee building our depth. Some people want to pretend like the Brewers roster was winning games last year. There is a reason some of these guys are expendable and Davis is one of those players.

2016 Opening Day Lineup (and 2016 Batting Order Discussion)
pacopete4 replied to pacopete4's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I'll take the under. -
Sean Nolin Stats The guy that was DFA in the Davis trade might not be a bad candidate to pick up off waivers. Big lefty with some pretty solid minor league stats. We drafted him in the 50th back in 2008 but was a 6th rounder by Toronto two years after that.
-
Davis will have 25 by the first of August. It will take until August of 2017 for Santana to hit 27. Davis may be 28, but he had not quite reached his peak, and that's part of the reason I didn't like this deal. Davis is a power bat in the category of Edwin Encarnacion and Jose Bautista, both of whom took until deeper in their careers to post the big numbers and ironically were also given up on by their original teams too soon. For the record, for those thinking I've criticized all Stearns' moves, I did post that I liked the Segura trade. Briggs you may end up right that there's more in Davis than he's shown but I think that the majority agree that this was a good move because we have a lot of options in the OF, we are rebuilding, and received a catching prospect which we are so, so low on in our system. Also, if Davis ever becomes the hitter you're talking about it will take him being a DH anyways because he's just not that good in the OF. Not only that but this gives us a chance to see what another higher power, athletic guy can do. If he stinks, we move on. But you have to give them consistent at bats to find that out.

Oh goodie. Please be a good return!

Yuliesky G(o)uriel 3B/Cuba
pacopete4 replied to molitor fan's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
I was thinking even higher. I wouldn't trust those documents that claim he is 32 one bit. -
If he were paid league minimum, what would his trade value be? That is essentially the case if the Brewers trade him right now, while agreeing to pick up the $6M or so the Diamondbacks aren't paying. Right now as in today? Not all that great of a trade asset, even for free. Could he get a lower end guy like Ramirez retrieved us? Maybe. But I think we need to hold out hope he has 4 hot months in him and he can increase that and we can flip him for a high ceiling guy and move on. I know we make fun of needing veterans around but maybe Hill is that guy to help the younger players progress and move forward. Ya just never know.
-
I'm hoping Hill comes out blazing hot and we can flip him at the deadline to some sucker. The rest of this talk is silliness because that is the only talking point when it comes to Hill.
