I highly recommend to actually watch the interview and not just read the article portion. The way the media is titling it and the blurbs make it seem like he is more skeptical than he really is. Though, he still doesn't really accept the explanation given. He still feels like it is debatable what he said. Though if he really watched that video 50+ times, especially after the explanation, and can't realize the fan was clearly not talking to/towards him he may need his eyes checked. It would be a bit reactionary to change the name of the mascot, but then again, so was everyone calling the fan a racist.

Pointless conversation but: Even if roster were still 40 I doubt he would return. No way Braun would come back for 15 PAs and then get left off the postseason roster. What would even be the point for him? So unless he was promised a 26 man spot he would most certainly stay home.

That entire Rockies fan thing was cringy. It seemed pretty obvious from the start he didn't say what people thought he said. You aren't screaming that around thousands of people these days and no one batting an eye. Then you actually watch the video and he clearly is referring to the mascot. I don't think he even looks at the field the entire video. The MLBPA and Rockies comments were gross. They could have just said they were reviewing the situation and not throw the dude under the bus. It was a simple thing to get to the bottom of and took less than 24 hours. To release statements as if what happened was facts is garbage. They release generic statements all the time when a players gets a DUI or gets a domestic violence charge. If you can release a generic statement for that pretty sure this guy could have gotten a bit more than a few hours before they try to ruin his life.

Pretty sure we get to bat in the 9th inning.

It’s a supply versus demand thing. The demand for a chance at the MLB far exceeds the supply of spots on MLB rosters. Why doesn’t the MLB spend millions on housing? Well, easy, they don’t have to. They already get what they need. Spending all that money isn’t going to improve their rosters. Opportunity costs something. Millions of people go to college and take out loans for housing and even food. At some point there is a lot of complaining, but guess what, they still get on the bus to go play baseball. If it is so bad then quit, thousands of people will happy replace you. As long as that is the case there is little reason to change the system. Until these players with nearly zero shot at the MLB start quitting and suddenly rosters aren’t getting filled it won’t make much difference. I will say, some of the food they provide is kind of pathetic.

USA edged out France for gold in basketball. Certainly not the most pretty run to gold, but they achieved it again none the less.

Brewers trade for 1B Rowdy Tellez from Blue Jays
MrTPlush replied to Eye Black's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Tellez follows the same thought process as getting Vogelbach last year. Position that always is saturated with intriguing names/productions where you can possibly nab some value for cheap. This is something Stearns has tried a lot in the past in acquiring players. While Vogelbach isn’t really working out long term, maybe Tellez will. I certainly think Tellez is a bit more intriguing and a higher potential guy. Not sure Tellez will ever be a strong first baseman…but maybe he can hold the position down for a few years and give some solid value. -
Seidel couldn’t mutter much when being handed the phone during her post run interview, but she did let her family know one thing: “Please drink a beer for me.”

As a non Wisconsin basketball fan I LOLed really hard when I saw this headline on Facebook. The thought of Wisconsin basketball fans needing to cheer for this guy is just funny. Of course it then set in that Allen is a douche and I don’t like him either. Not sure how he has been in recent years. I recall him doing dumb stuff his rookie year, but not sure now.
-
Yes….So many deals of Stearns are about player control and paying less salary to free up $ for other parts of the team. Often goes unnoticed. You can almost say the Brewers won this trade because of the extra money they saved to spend on other parts of the team. Yes, so relieved we had extra money to sign JBJ

2022 schedule expected to be released today
MrTPlush replied to gebc1997's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Fenway on a weekend…ohhh….that’s tempting. -
Real glad he turned it around. I was going be really bummed if the 1-2 punch of Hader/Williams was gone just like that.
-
How do? Now he gets a MLB check for a few months. Sounds good to me. Not sure how it backfired. Gave up nothing, had nothing to lose, and his performance lost nothing.

Hader to Covid IL - Latest: Hader reinstated, Milner to AAA
MrTPlush replied to markedman5's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
True to an extent but the intensity of covid has been lesser for those who are vaccinated so hader could potentially be out longer. We I got it in the Fall (and I am in fairly good shape) I was out for almost 2 weeks. But at this point he has no symptoms (I believe that is what was inferred by Counsell) so seems early to get concerned with his recovery. -
Hader to Covid IL - Latest: Hader reinstated, Milner to AAA
MrTPlush replied to markedman5's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Is Hader vaccinated? Probably not…but as someone else pointed out he likely got infected via a vaccinated teammate so it seems rather pointless to get ones undies in a bunch over it. -
Passan- Mets won't sign Rocker
MrTPlush replied to homer's topic in MLB Draft & International Signings
Oh he’s getting paid in 2021? Well, since he never made the MLB squad, no, he isn’t. -
Probably a safe reason to consider this trade a nothing burger until proven wrong.

The USA scrub team barely lost to Japan, in extras, for baseball.

Predict the Brewers record for July
MrTPlush replied to sixtolezcano16's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I will give myself the extra pat on the back for also correctly predicting the pre and post AS Break records for the month. Haha -
Nah, he’s similar to BillyMcKinney, and since he was DFA’d he’s been with two other organizations already and likely will be out of LA when they activate Trea Turner and Scherzer. Vogelbach is arbitration eligible and like McKinney has yet to get himself established as an every day major league player. He’ll be available this winter as a free agent even if he is DFA’d. I’ve always thought they kept Vogey for this year to be our DH next year We are stashing career .735 OPS bats to be the DH IF it happens? Yah, I think probably not.
-
Guessing because they didn’t want to have to swallow their pride. I really doubt they didn’t get an offer better than a comp pick. How much is a comp pick even ‘worth’? They would have saved $8mil or so selling him off. That alone is probably more valuable than a comp pick.
-
These guys are bad at their jobs. Really? Cause the biggest takeaway I got from that is the average is 95%. That sounds pretty good.
-
If y’all go can you scream incorrect player names (Rizzo, Baez, Bryant, )? I’d say Kimbrel too…but we know the closer won’t be seen too often anymore.
-
The Reds are on a 4 game winning streak and have gained….zero ground on us.
-
Because it is an interstate. If that interstate stopped at 94 in Milwaukee, it wouldn’t be an interstate. That would be my first thought.
