Braun made a spectacle of himself with his press conference full of lies, honestly. Is ARod really beloved? Maybe ESPN likes him, but who does outside of New York, Seattle, and Miami, possibly?
Is it possible in this day-and-age to build a team with contact hitters and speed? I am weary of heavy-pull hitting, strikeout guys ... the defense knows where they are going to hit the ball if they do hit it, and they cannot make an adjustment, seemingly.
And Stearns stands pat with that and all our injuries...just bring up another AAA pitcher. Brewers are pretenders at the management/ownership level. Money trumps success! We cannot get to the postseason in successive years without blind luck with young guys or previously so-so players having career years. Yes, we should trade all our bad minor league players for several stud major league players. How about retaining Miley? How about going after a free agent? Wilkerson, Jackson, Burch Smith, etc ... not gonna do it!
