  1. That 17 K to 2 BB ratio through eight innings between Mercedes, Quezada & Dorchies is pretty zesty. Of course it’s the ACL so Mercedes mixed in a couple WP and an HBP too, but either way that K/BB might be more impressive than the run scoring onslaught.
  2. Ohfer eighteen so far…but 4 walks!
  3. Extra impressive with two high bonus guys on the team (Quintana/Ereu) hitting the worst among the regulars.
  4. Looks like 2025 ACL stats have shown up on BRef now. Brewers hitters have the (wait for it) youngest average age at 18.4 versus a 19.6 league average. Pitchers are more middle of the pack at 20.9 versus a 21.0 average, but that’s probably skewed somewhat by Hall/Shears/Ashby rehabbing. Outside of Hall the top nine Zona Crew pitchers in IP so far are all either 18 or 19.
  5. Ten years? That seems a little extreme. Depending how they play things this offseason the books could be pretty clean in two years when Dame expires. The NBA playoffs have gotten way more random of late and with Tatum going down the East is as wide open as ever. I don’t think Giannis has any real desire to leave, but if needed sell him on next year being a gap year, every One Franchise Guy outside of Duncan had them. After that they’d have an expiring Dame and more future firsts they could deal if they want to keep kicking the can further down the road for one last All In push.
  6. If these are the best offers, just keep Giannis. No point in rebuilding with the front office we have in place and none of our own picks for five years.
  7. April/May attendance numbers aren't really comparable with full season numbers. School is still in session and it hasn't been nice out for more than two days in a row yet.
  8. Kyrie tore his ACL at the end of the season so they are in the same holding pattern as the Bucks next year with their lead guard out. They'd also probably have to include AD and his $54M to make salaries work otherwise the Bucks would be taking back some combination of guys like Klay ($16.7M), Daniel Gafford ($14.3M), PJ Washington ($14.4M), Max Christie ($7.7M), Jaden Hardy ($6M), and Dereck Lively ($5.2M) in addition to whatever Flagg gets on his rookie deal (looks like Rissacher was $12.6M for his first season as the #1 pick last year) to try and get up to Giannis $54M number.
  9. This is just the state of the modern NBA playoffs. In the seven NBA Finals from 2012-18 there were seven LeBron teams, four Golden States, two San Antonios, and OKC the last year they had Durant, Westbrook & Harden all together occupying the fourteen available spots. Five franchises, but even Durant had carryover with the Golden State teams so really it was LBJ, Curry, Durant, and Duncan/Kawhi that dominated the festivities. Those fourteen NBA Finals teams were seeded #1 (x6), #2 (x7) and #4 in their conferences. Whole lot of chalk. In the six Finals since it's been #1 (x4), #2 (x3), #3 (x2), #5 (x2) and #8. This year its looking like #3 or #4 from the East and #1, #4 or #6 from the West. Way more chaos in the mix now. From the Lakers 87-88 repeat to the Bulls 96-98 three-peat all twelve NBA titles were won as part of a repeat of three-peat, from 1999 through the Warriors most recent repeat in 2017-18 nine of the twenty titles were repeats or three-peats with the Spurs scattering five individual wins throughout so still very much a Dynasty Era. With Taum's injury it looks like we'll have no repeat Champion for the 7th straight year and if the Nuggets don't go all the way it'll be seven different Finals MVPs too. The last time there was a run of seven Finals MVPs with no repeats was 1975-81 with Rick Barry, Jo Jo White, Bill Walton, Wes Unsled, Dennis Johnson, Magic Johnson and Cedric Maxwell.
  10. Neither one has started playing in any kind of minor league rehab games as of yet so probably still a ways off. If I counted right Perkins is eligible to come off the 60 Day IL around May 26th so maybe early June for him?
  11. & Jorge Quintana gets a two RBI single in for good measure to close out the seven run ninth.
  12. Brewers welcome the new Padres pitcher with an Encarnacion walk, Ortuno double, and Fielder walk to load the bases with a wild pitch scoring one more. & Paulino walks to load em back up, prompting another pitching change (this one appears to be a position player) trying to get the last two outs.
  13. Back at it top of nine with a Holguin double, Quintana single, and Corobo single adding another run. & now a Jose Anderson bomb has added three more !!! 16-6 Zona Crew lead, still no outs.
  14. Argenis Aparicio on the mound for the eighth and works around a pair of inning opening singles to get the zero with a 6-4-3 DP and a strikeout. Jose Nova had a zero of his own earlier in the fifth when he inherited a Dubanewicz walk, walked the first batter he faced, but then got a strikeout, caught stealing, and pop out to escape the jam.
  15. Padres have tried to chip away at the lead a few times tonight, but Brewers keep adding back on. This time we’ve got an Anderson double, Encarnacion E5, and Ortuno single making it a 12-6 lead top of eight.
  16. Anderson walk, Encarnacion double, Fielder’s choice for an RBI, then another run when Jadyn stole second and there was an error on the throw. Montero’s RBI groundout makes it an 11-4 advantage for the Complex Crew. That RBI groundout from Frederi lowered his early season batting average to .526
  17. Another mini explosion here top of six with an Ortuno walk, Fielder single/E9, Montero single, passed ball, and Paulino triple running it to a 7-3 lead for the Brewers. Ok, make that 8-3 on a Holguin groundout.
  18. Dubanewicz conceded a pair of runs bottom two on a trio of singles and a throwing error, but bounced back for another 1-2-3 (1 K) frame in the third. Score now 4-2 heading to bottom four.
  19. Three up three down one strikeout for Jayden Dubanewicz in the bottom half. Offense back at it again with a leadoff double from Frederi Montero, a wild pitch, and an Engel Paulino single making it a 4-0 ballgame.
  20. Oh man, now we’ve got a two run bomb from Juan Ortuno to make it a three run top of the first.
  21. That didn’t take long. Jose Anderson HBP and SB plus a RBI single from Handelfry Encarnacion gets Zona Crew on the board in the first.
  22. Lineup posted and Quero is indeed in there… Jorge Quintana SS Jeferson Quero C Jose Anderson CF Handelfry Encarnacion RF Juan Ortuno 2B Jadyn Fielder DH Frederi Montero 3B Engel Paulino LF Gery Holguin 1B Jayden Dubanewicz P
  23. Not me. Obviously SGA isn't going anywhere, and don't have much interest in Chet Holmgren with his body type. Jalen Williams is their only young piece I'd have interest in as a headliner. $6.6M next year on the last year of his rookie deal so not sure how that would work with cap stuff. Maybe he could be part of the package as a sign & trade to eat into more of Giannis $54M number? Main salaries they have for matching purposes are Hartenstein ($28.5M), Caruso ($18.2M) and Dort ($17.2M) then its younger guys like Isaiah Joe ($12.3M), Aaron Wiggins ($9.7M), or Cason Wallace ($5.2M), none of whom are really all that exciting to me in a Giannis package. They have a ton of first round picks they could deal, but none of them really project to be valuable picks with high lotto odds. Best ones are probably Philly 2025 protected 1-6 then 1-4 protection for 2026/27, Utah 2026 protected 1-8 or maybe Dallas 2028 swap no protections. Their best deal is probably something like an extended Williams, Hartenstein, Wallace and then whichever four or five first round picks the Bucks think have the most potential value.
  24. Agreed, but that was 2021 deadline so still Stearns.
  25. My personal read on the situation is that Giannis likes Milwaukee, doesn't really want to leave, and would rather be a One Franchise Guy than ask for a trade. If Giannis doesn't explicitly ask to be traded, I don't think the front office or owners will pursue it. None of this will stop the media from trying to will it into existence though.
