If you scroll to Baseball Savant, among RH bats, Adames had the worst wOBA with over 150PAs when facing a shift at .248. When looking at wOBA non-shifts he's at .350 and top 50[48 or 49) in baseball above 150PAs. Was 120th when taking all PAs. So this season his numbers should improve BA/OB. His birthday is September 2nd so he'll be near 27/28 the remainder of his 2 team controlled years. Extension length is a little awkward. 2 extra years puts his FA at age 31. Guessing he wouldn't want testing FA any older. So he had the comment he'd like to finish his career here. We must be looking +5, 6? Extended years. Finishing age 34/35. Jean Segura maybe a comp in terms of what FA value to age Adames would be looking at with current WAR history prior. That turned out as about 4/60mil for Segura. Probably inflate that to 16.5Mil or about 4/66 beyond extension with say a 17.5 5th yr option? This doesn't include the 2yrs remaining. (9/13 mil what mlbtr projected him) so 6/88 with option 7/105. We on a good ball park?

Pretty clear on the videos Yelich's swing speed is vastly faster than the Yelich of today. That would tie in more to back issues disallowing him to swing as fast. I've believed it was fear on hurting his knee with swinging timidly, but now it's clearly the back nearing 3years later. If he were a golfer this is like a prime PGA player turned senior the next years. Bat speed must be multiple miles per hour slower. The hard exit velocity is just how well his swing plane and barrel of the ball is.

Brewers could do this easy. Freddy Peralta, Chourio, and add from there if even needed. (Small+Turang) Team needs to cash in 1 of their bellwinning SPs for a bellwinning bat. Burnes, Woodruff, Lauer, Houser, Ashby still packs a punch. And Soto to bat 3rd for Milw is the bat that would put fear in opposing pitchers this team doesn't possess.

Yelich should be considered for Leadoff. He's great at swiping bags when he gets on. The concern for OBP is an odd concern. Hey should see better protection with the 2 and 3hitters to bat behind him with 0 outs. If Yeli can find a way back towards MVP Yeli, it will be a simple move back to 3 in the order. Doubt it happens because of Wong and Handedness L/R/L. I'd also mention confidence being removed that he's a 3hitter and placed leadoff to start the season might wreck Yelich's psyche even more. We haven't seen this yet in ST have we? Let's get the season started and adjust. Hiura hitting bombs again like 2019 could work to Yeli in the 3spots favor.

I'll be different in saying I didn't like Dune at all. I would have walked out of the theater if it weren't for the fact my daughter sleeping sitting next to me. Last movie I went to that I walked out of was Anaconda. Venom was worthwhile for a theater go to. The end is what you want see to guarantee another ticket bought on the next Venom movie in theaters. Jungle Cruise was it? Duane Johnson movie. I'd call a not must see movie.

Brewers acquire Daniel Norris from Tigers
brewcrewdue80 replied to homer's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Thinking this acquisition is for September stretch when rosters expand and CC can use Norris frequently to get tough lefty batters out to get out of jams. Don't know if he'll make to many of the playoff rosters. But he'll give the team boost in September. Including that last tough week. -
Ok looks like Diaz was #86 at time of trade. I remember he had 1 year in it then completely bottomed out the next. Thought that had happened already time of trade but was after it. Harrison may have been in 70s but not MLB's. I'll stick with the consensus 120s-160s. I think the list I gave fits comparable. Tucupita Marcano is mid inf that ranks higher than Ruiz but he's nowhere near the HR power that Diaz brought while Ruiz is closer.
-
Precisely. If the Brewers were offered the current day equivalent of Brinson, Harrison, Diaz and Yamamoto for Hader, Hader would be on the next flight out of Milwaukee. For fun, what would the equivalent of that actually be from SD? Have to be something like Luis Campusano, Robert Hassell, Ryan Weathers, and a lottery ticket? On paper that is better than what Milw gave up. Only Brinson was a top 100 prospect. Diaz had touched top 100 briefly but not at time of that trade. Harrison has almost always been that 125-160 prospect while in Milw. Yamamoto was the throw in. CJ Abrams is likely Brinson. And then you start plucking names once youre below Weathers. Esteury Ruiz fits Diaz. Jorge Ona as a slight below Harrison. We'll say Efrain Contreras as Yamamoto had he had 2020 to pitch in minors.

I second this. While the 2007 season showed some glimmer of hope, the big trade deadline acquisition that season was Scott Linebrink, who, spoiler alert, did not prove to be the missing piece to put us over the edge. We always seemed to be taking the cautious approach to things. The acquisition of CC was so shocking because the Brewers of the past would never have made that move. in 2006 for thinking we could get Johan Santana. Then we actually went out and GOT a stud pitcher in CC Sabathia. And then he basically dragged us to the playoffs by himself. Truly incredible. Nice on the Youtube. Best part is bottom right is headline Wisconsin win Men's Hockey Championship.

Is Lewis Brinson near the worst top 15 busts? He's in his 4 season of ABs in the Majors and become a pinch hitter essentially. Now in that 4 seasons of time he's finally accumulated a full season's worth of PAs and sits at .530 OPS and a value of Negative -3.4 BWAR In no way can you think the Brewers lost on this trade, and where in rankings all time should this trade be ranked? Better than the CC Sabathia trade?

Unlimited fed printing and 0% interest rates really does wonders for a fake stock market doesn’t it? Oops sorry I was supposed to say “stimulates the economy.” 2020 pumping stocks is what 2019 was except all roided up. *Typing this as the futures are green and were on about 12 days in a row of the same exact “pumping stock futures at night and green markets all day long.” This bothers me also, but then again the Dow is based on 30 companies. My stock watch has lost one stock, and I feel at least 2 more are due to disappear or be bought out and absorbed. I imagine there are a few sectors that have or will be hit hard, but come the Dow 30, 3months is but a blip to them, I imagine the majority was deemed essential and business generally moved right on along.

Why would you think something like an oil supply crisis would happen? Trump filled the US oil reserves to the absolute tops couple weeks back or so when the oil prices were thought to be a great discount...one even better today. Here's where the economy will take a freefall, supply and demand with ongoing employment. I seen a Meier post early today letting customers be aware prices for many goods will be noticeably higher as we stay shut down. The last example which I remember was given eggs will have higher pricing. The millions of people that are or will be collecting unemployment, a reduced income that will end up purchasing less than what you could purchase with that same amount a week ago. It'll be a rippling effect. Food or clothing. Answer Food. Effect-say good bye to Kohl's in WI. Effect-jobs Lost. Effect-Unemployment increase. Effect-Market worsens. You get where this is trending. It'll only get worse when the money people get during this isn't saved and used for bills and rent. When that happens the housing market will take a bigger hit when mortgages are falling behind. But we'll see, what does the gov't do to slow that scenario? How long do we choose flattening the curve vs an economy slowly in ruins?

Thing is I think markets historically endure a lull late May til maybe October Maybe its late August. Obviously we're in abnormal times. Im just leery on the markets being propped up by the fed, Care plan, Trump's continued push to keep the economy in higher spirits. How bad will NY really be in the coming 2weeks now with aid from the Navel Boat? Market was also propped up when Biden had that big Super Tuesday. But he is clearly having speech issues[dementia?] and that may push Sanders back in to the Democrat candidate for Pres. We've all just been pushed back til April 30th. What happens if/when that becomes May 14th? When do small businesses go bellyup? Unemployment just last week for WI was 115,000+ new applicants. Trump i just read said tonight it's going to be a painful 2weeks. Seems just still a bumpy volatile road we're on to me to keep on the sidelines.

You Named it! That is the pizza place I was thinking of growing up. For back then extremely large pizzas and weren't the pizzas cut in smaller squares? Is Hup's still around?

With all the Closings, Cancellations, travel bans, etc, the World economy has to only continue down. I seen a post on my Facebook that early indications from recovered are dealing with20-30% lung damage, and that if you smoke or Vape it is worse. Think I read what we are seeing is called a Dead-Cats bounce. I don't see any way how the Markets can be any higher with all this stoppage over the next 30days. Market has to be lower than it stands now 30 days from now. Just wish we didn't have the insta down/ups or overnights, vs a long slow gradual decline. Losing 10% in one day is just brutal, and many of the stocks are I watch were actually down 15-20% yesterday. 1% here 1.5% there, gradual vs this overnight 5-6.5% start to the day.

Hey got what I hoped for, but now methinks DJ is headed for much bigger drop. I did put back some bonds in to stock funds today because I told myself I would below 24.5k. What a dip!
-
Another 1000÷pt gain. Ouch.
-
And so the market climbs 1200+pts today. Well ask and I shall not receive.
-
I could use a 1200pt or more session loss. Moved conservative last year in April as it approached All time high. This referring to 401k. Should finally be able to buy back what I moved and more.

Jack's used to have a mexican pizza with a seasoning packet that I ate a lot in my 20s. No longer find that version. It may have been named. My family used to splurge on a pizza place that I believed closed down within last 10 years. I feel like it was around 52nd-70th streets and on or between Hampton and Burleigh? Just monstrous sized pizzas. Loaded in toppings. Anyone know the place Im referring to? Having worked in Sheboygan for 18years now, I think there was a place that became Pit Stop pizza by the movie theatre. The previous place had this amazing taco pizza. It was loaded. I'll take suggestions for mexican/taco pizzas. For me today and its been hit or miss lately I get my fix on Digiornos spicy chicken pizza. Adding my share of mexican chili pepper on top. Stores dont seem to carry this pizza like used to.

I had to go to page 11 to find my take and it was a good one.

Why imagine that lineup with an eye towards 2019 when it could be done right now ? OH, I wish, but Arcia's there. He's rapidly overtaking Jim Gantner as my all-time LEAST favorite Brewer. Same reason - an offensive black hole. When he was demoted his avg was .197/.231/251-.482ops. Change in role, hes at .221/.257/291-548ops now for season. That's some small improvement, but improvement nonetheless. With how he plays defense, he only need a little more from the bat to have added value for the team. Right jow BWar has him at -.3war. Somebody somewhere is going to reach to him and improve his approach. He's young still but a guy out there I believe similar history would be Brandon Crawford. Who has had a spiked year sprinkled in here and there I believe with quite a positive value. Ill have to check, but I feel good stating that for now w/o checking.
