    Assuming Schoop is tendered a contract this year, he'd would have to play at an elite level to get a QO in 2019.
  2. 502 to Right
    Villar had an OPS+ of 85 for the Brewers in 2018. Schoop had an OPS+ of 53. They were not close. Schoop was utter garbage.

    I don't consider Jim Bowden a credible source.
  4. 502 to Right
    I agree 100%. It seems like most people on this board fawn over Moustakas, while Shaw put up superior production.
  5. 502 to Right
    A bounce back candidate? His 2018 season was nearly identical to 2017. 2018 4.1 WAR (B-Ref) 119 OPS+ 2017 3.9 WAR 121 OPS+ Shaw is an excellent player who will either be starting at 3B (hopefully) or 2B (please no) in 2019 for the Brewers.

    I think some people here are being overly optimistic about Hiura for 2019. If I was the GM I would not count on any significant contribution by Hiura. If you get it, great, but don't plan on it.

    Manny being Manny: spiked Steve Pearce at first in Game 4. What a scumbag. https://www.12up.com/posts/6208291-manny-machado-should-be-suspended-for-latest-dirty-play-against-red-sox

    Hal McRae doesn't see anything wrong with Manny's slides.

    I have no sympathy for someone who voluntarily attends an Ed Sheeran concert.
  10. 502 to Right
    I don't think it bothered him too much. 25 years old, 4 time All-Star, 2 time gold glover, going to the World Series, and about to get paid big time this off-season. That said, Manny Machado is not a good person.

    Can people stop suggesting the Brewers trade Schoop? He has no trade value. The Brewers will either non-tender him (I hope), or keep him and hope he turns into 2017 Jonathan Schoop.
  12. 502 to Right
    Non-tender Schoop. No way should they spend $8+ million on that waste of space. Then they need to return Shaw to 3B and find someone who can actually play 2B.
  13. 502 to Right
    Schoop sucks. The one F on Stearns' report card.
  14. 502 to Right
    Agreed.
  15. 502 to Right
    Holy overreaction Batman! You have been pretty high and mighty with your criticisms tonight, and this staff just pitched a shutout in Dodger Stadium. Not backing down from that one. He's been awful. You just expect opponents to score 2-3 runs against him every single time out. You feel lucky every time it's just 2! It's really the Drake/Feliz feeling every time out at this point. Take a sedative dude.

    Fox Sports Wisconsin is still doing postgame shows. Also, the postgame on MLB Network is pretty good. This x 100. Anyone who watches the FS1 post-game is a fool.

    4+ hours for a 9 inning game is brutal. Bullpenning might put up W's but in the long run it's going to turn away fans with absurdly long games.
  18. 502 to Right
    The days of rushing the field in the MLB are long gone. If there was a deciding game at Miller Park with the Brewers having a 9th inning lead, there will be line of police (not security -- gun toting police) down both foul lines and in the bullpen and wherever they can stash cops in the outfield out of play. Also - I was in the student section for the Wisconsin-Michigan 1993 stampede. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Horrific and scary.

    That is very flawed logic. Villar wasn't playing, and it was obvious he wasn't going to play. This has been pointed out countless times in countless threads. Villar was ready to come off the DL for at least a week when he was dealt, yet the Brewers kept him there. For whatever reason, Counsell was done with him. Looking at his stats with Baltimore, and saying he would have done that in Milwaukee, is comparing apples and oranges. Villar was the definition of a "throw-in" in that deal. I hope Villar plays well for the Orioles and becomes a good Major League regular. I loved the energy and enthusiasm he brought. He was never going to achieve that with the Brewers, though. Counsell is as much to blame as Stearns. To say that Counsell wasn't playing Villar so he needed to be traded takes two wrongs and tries to call it right.

    I can't stand any draft system that rewards bad teams. They need to go to a random system where every team will have one overall number 1 pick in the next 30 years (and so on for all the other draft slots).
  21. 502 to Right
    Hard to be an MVP of anything when you never play. Not saying he should be playing, but it sure seems like the trade we made for him was not a good idea. I don't see the package we gave up even amounting to much of anything, so I think the deal will end of being a wash at worst. Schoop pretty much beat the Giants and Bumgarner with one swing a few weeks back, and considering where we finished in the standings after #162, that game was pretty huge in hindsight. I personally don't think the full story on Schoop's Brewer career has been written yet, though. Jonathan Villar would easily have eclipsed Schoop's meager contributions to the Brewers. That said, I hope 2019 Schoop plays like the second coming of Ryne Sandberg.

    That's an article I won't be reading because Deadspin is a garbage, classless website. I prefer sports journalism that doesn't mimic TMZ or drop the F bomb like they're so cool.
  23. 502 to Right
    Same with Villar My comment was sarcasm given the people who dismiss Villar for that reason. Unless Schoop turns into the second coming of Ryne Sanberg next year this trade sucked balls.
  24. 502 to Right
    Since the trade - Schoop 50 OPS+. Villar 106 OPS+ I guess Schoop can only hit for a team that sucks.
  25. 502 to Right
    Even if you look only at Villar's production as a Brewer he was better than Schoop has been. Your statement "Not great, but certainly an upgrade over either Villar" is not true about Schoop--especially when you view their production post-trade. Schoop sucks and the Brewers wasted talent and made their team worse by trading for him.
