  1. Big part of that upgrade discussion will also be whether they feel comfortable moving Turang to SS. We just have no idea on their internal view on that. There's definitely a logic in just leaving him where is. But there's a logic that he was considered GG at SS too and SS is our major major need for upgrade. Open to moving Bryce there frees up any infielder for acquisitions since Durbin can do either (probably better suited for 2B). If they have decided Turang cannot move you're very limited because Durbin shouldn't be anymore than emergency use at SS.
  2. TBF, I didn't get that vibe from this quick listen. These guys seems resolved in the fact of how much well run the brewers are and that their team is better. Your overall point though, I 100% get that from the Cubs fans I'm friends with. I don't try to argue or make it a thing, you'd think after several years in a row they'd realize it but here we are. That said, its not like the Cubs weren't very good this year. They didn't hand us that division with a chokejob or anything. They had the fourth or fifth best record in all of baseball I think
  3. Imagine how lopsided this would be if the Brewers management actually tried to win
  4. I'd be curios if MKE would've put in a claim with him if he got to us in waivers a few weeks ago. I would've done that and the hoped he could take Ortiz spot this year and opt in for next year to cover for one more year as the prospects get ready. I doubt they would have done it though due the salary Giving him 2-3 years though after two injury seasons in a row, no thanks. My guess is he opts in or works out something with ATL to stay
  5. Like most I get either one and don't have a beef either way. I'd go Raleigh due to playing C. But the 'tiebraeker' I guess to me would Judge having the DL stint to miss the games and then to not be able to play D afterwards so he's only played D in like 90 games this year. That DL stint and subsequent inability to play OF helped put them in the hole they were in. But yea, I of course get that he's such a ridiculous hitter that he makes up for missing those games easily. Which is impressive in itself ETA: looks like I forgot to mention the slight inflation on stats due to Yankee stadium while Raleigh plays in a pitchers park
  6. Random that popped in my head. Buy low on Ezequiel Tovar. Is signed on Chourio type very early extension to buy out arb. So chances are Col plans to keep him. But, they are really stupid and he had a bad injury riddled year so might be fine clearing the money and getting prospects. You could have him for the 2-3 years while he's still cheap then look to trade him if the pile of good IF prospects pan out and are ready for the bigs. Or would be a stable guy signed so that if Turang proves difficult to sign maybe he'd be the one you trade in 2-3 years before he hits FA to free up space for the prospects. But if it costs giving up the great prospects you probably just hold off. Buy low kick the tires thing to try and take advantage of a dumb team. If they view him as the one thing they can sell to their fans so have a high price just hold off
  7. OTOH, this injury again might be what keeps him affordable and back to MKE. Without it he was almost for sure out of our range of what what they should do. But now, he might have to take another short term thing. If someone is giving him 100 mil in the bank though he should take it
  8. I think I'm 1-9, pretty difficult for a team with over 600 win percent. 0-6 at Miller Park. 0-2 at Wrigley. 1-1 in AZ. 3 of the losses were 5ish-0 blown lead late in AZ, Rockies blown 2-0 lead by Uribe/Megill, Uecker day blown lead in 9th So yea, when they lose in the playoffs it'll be on me.
  9. Yea and all things look good for division/seed right now so a good time to let Yelich steal a day to reduce as much risk on his back leading up to the playoffs as possible. For Rhys, I know others said in here who cares. But if he's going to be on the post reason roster, which I'd think he is due to the PH option or if Vaughn falls apart. Then you'd think you'd want him stay staying sharp.
  10. Off day Thurs too so everyone is in ok shape really. So everyone has gotten a bit of refresh since that brutal stretch. Too bad 2/3 of their planned backend ended up on the DL from that stretch though
  11. Trea Turner went out with a hamstring yesterday. As of now it doesn't seem major, but it would be nice if it was just enough to keep him out of the playoffs unless its the WS. No Wheeler/Turner would be a break
  12. I don't think anyone or even them would say its a big deal. But its an arm/depth at a time they kind of need it. you can kind of blow through payamps as needed while up right now then dfa when you need to and lose him then. Kind of like running a car into the ground before getting rid of it. In addition, it gives a guy who has been a good guy for a couple years a chance to show something to other teams. I would guess that if they weren't up by 7.5 games the decision would be different. But he's one of the kind of garbage time guys now and after a day where he's used a lot or after like 2-3 straight days of use he'll probably be gone. I think someone just said patrick has a locker, so he might be the guy gone when that's needed. So sending yoho down first allows him back sooner later on
  13. oh Adolis Garcia is out now too. Didn't know Joc had been ok in the last few weeks, I saw the next post not knowing here was there. FYI, he signed there this year for like 2/40 and has been atrocious, like dfa level bad. Althogh apparently has done ok the last few weeks according to sveum. There was some talk on mlb a few weeks ago about how loyal the manager has been because he keeps trotting him out there in the 3 hole every day with a .170 type avg and 600ish ops
  14. Didn't know until today after seeing some mlb network discussion that this good streak by TX to get close is being done with Seager and Semien on the DL. Evaldi is down too. On paper this is not a very good looking team right now. But they're playing well at the moment.
  15. Yes, quite the domino effect on if Civale just stays the course. Vaughn might still be tinkering on the Sox. We don't get that hot streak that helped vault MKE to the big lead. Who knows where things are at right now. Also, I personally am shocked that all the 'they're going to collapse and they suck' folks were wrong again. I look forward to seeing them all again after they lose in October so they can claim to have been right all along.
  16. Ha, right. On paper, I'd probably say Sea has the best team in the AL. So tough to put it on management too much. But more or less, they're in the same spot they were before the moves and with the same % at a WS. While I'd think putting a dent in their farm for two guys who'll be gone at end of year
  17. Wow. That's absurd. Funny thing is for fantasy baseball, seemingly every time I have a starter leave a game with the lead the last month or so his pen blows the game. I have Yamamoto. I actually hadn't even checked it since he gave up the HR, figured it would be no problem over. then I saw this, crazy loss for them and the streak continues for me
  18. Too funny that Bauers came through again today. Good for him couldn't watch today so not privy too much. but saw no Yeli again. Wonder if him to DL is gonna be the way to get Hoskins back as his deadline comes up. lead back to 6.5 you can probably play it super safe
  19. it popped in my head after the L yesterday that if they sweep Pit this weekend its as good as over. You'd be at 89 wins with like 21 games left or something like that.
  20. yea i get that. But, Reynolds robbed two great hits in RF to save them 3 runs. I don't know if they called Vaughn's hit up the middle there an E or not, but imo it was a hit. Bad to even throw the ball though to give us a run
  21. I haven't watched a play of either nfl game yet, probably won't until the packers games trying to take it easy this weekend so being online keeping me from getting bored and going out
  22. One AB for the game on line or a less than 2 outs guy on third, I think I'd go with Bauers
