  1. Don’t they do that constantly with AAU basketball?
  2. They should provide fans an opportunity to purchase a paper copy in a presale. Otherwise, it’s a waste.
  3. When will the actual cap be decided? That seems like an important thing for teams to know.
  4. We’re going to win the whole damn thing.
  5. I'm sure there was very little chance of this happening, but it would have been awfully funny if someone had swept in with a big offer and the Dodgers lost Turner because they were playing games with their 40-man roster. I'm actually surprised this never has happened. Must be somewhat of an unwritten rule all follow.
  6. Yes, I can't blame JJ if he grabs a boatload of cash. But then I also don't want to hear him whine when/if it doesn't work out and he's stuck on another losing team that doesn't really have a chance at winning a Super Bowl.
  7. Seems to be a whole lot of nothing connected to these rumors. Sounds like there were some bored people on Twitter.
  8. Well, they don't officially sign. That's why the MLB is okay with it. Turner could've signed elsewhere during that period of time if he wanted to.
  9. There are just so many talented backs that can be inserted pretty much right away. Go with Dillon and draft some guys and do some waiver diving to find your depth. Don't spend money on this position.
  10. They're fine full strength. Is it enough to win it all? That's still pretty debatable.
  11. He is probably just trying to drive up the price to sign with the Dodgers...
  12. I think while strength definitely can help you hit homers, it's not the only factor in play to hit them. Maybe trimming down, becoming a more athletic body, will help his swing this year as well. Oh, and this is the optimism thread...
  13. I think we have our guys that will man this position already. I think You will see a combination with Shaw, Arcia, and Urias with a possibility of a guy like Robertson or Green. I don't want a butcher at any position. Hiura hopefully can be serviceable at 1B or we need to move on from the guy.
  14. The game hasn’t changed that much in 3 seasons. Defense matters. It always will. It’s refreshing to see Stearns acknowledge that in his moves.
  15. Garcia ready!
  16. Imagine those guys' numbers with a strong defense behind them? It really could be something special as if it isn't already.
  17. It really was the M.O. of that 2018 team as well. The defense was good and made the pitching (Cough.... Chacin and Miley..... cough) better than they otherwise would have been. The Brewers staff is already going to be good, the defense will make it better. I'd like it if they could add ONE thumper bat, but I think they could be very good regardless.
  18. What I am probably the most excited about lately is the emphasis on defense for the Brewers. I think they've realized they need it badly to win again. They had it in 2018 and are searching for the right combination. Good to see.
  19. Due to Dane County restrictions, they couldn't practice and play as a "team". So somewhere got around it by forming a temp "club". That is the thing I'm surprised the WIAA didn't look into to. When restrictions eased, went back to a team. The WIAA has nothing to do with them starting up a WAHA team, which they did. Several other teams that were in similar situations due to local decisions did as well. Once their school district / Dane County allowed them to compete as an HS team, that WAHA team disbanded and they came back into the mix as a WIAA team. It was great that they had the opportunity to defend their title. It should never have been in question in my opinion and Dane County has looked absolutely foolish as other areas of the state have figured out how to make it work this season giving countless student-athletes the opportunity to compete in the respective sports/activities.
  20. As you said, over his entire career. But the last three seasons against RHP- 2018 = .231/.318/.351/.669 2019 = .266/.312/.386/.698 2020 = .236/.307/.358/.664 I wouldn't be targeting Reddick if I was looking for a guy to hit right handed pitching. Reddick may not be a bad fit for the Brewers as they have very little outfield experience once they get past the three starters. Looking at the defense and baserunning, Reddick just doesn't look like a guy that can do anything that well anymore. Greatest asset is probably his experience. Do the Brewers really want to go with Billy McKinney and Tyrone Taylor as outfielders #4 and #5 next season? I'm not a big fan of adding Reddick but I wouldn't argue with people who would say the Brewers should pursue him. Probably would end up with something like a .310 OBP, .700 OPS and subpar defense (but not horrible defense). Maybe McKinney, Taylor, Fisher, Ray could do better, but that group could do a lot worse too. Good catch. Pass on this one.
  21. Teachers pension/retirement is different from what I’ve read and asked about. Basically it is locked into the state that I taught in. It really sucks it’s designed that was as I should be able to move it to my new state.
  22. Do you know something? No, he just likes Braun. Correct. Going off the cryptic wife’s Instagram and Braun saying he’s staying in shape comments I think it’s just a matter of time.
  23. I taught one year in another state. I have about 4K tied up into their retirement system. I believe I could take it out with a 20% penalty which would be about $3,200 after all is done. Does it make more sense to take it out and invest or leave it for the next 25 years and build? I won't be putting anything more with it so that 4K is basically growing on its own. I'm not great with these types of things so thought maybe there might be someone here with some advice.
  24. You had me worried that it was with the Brewers.
