    Sanchez made it known early in that at-bat he was going boom or bust. He went boom.

    I’m guessing the long term success to the challenge system is challenging mostly on the pitching side and to avoid batting challenges unless it’s very obvious and a ‘big’ pitch.

    I can’t wait for the super inspirational explanation of how every fine detail came together for this ugly fit. Lmao

    Also, Boraa is like the player and his big payday is years and years away. He could represent this guy for years just for him to burn out. I doubt Boras is shedding many tears for the money he just made on a random prospect. Bet he would do it every time.

    People upset over this are really failing to use critical thinking and basic math. 6 times to break even….6 times. For a season ticket holder who uses it 82 or so times in a season, saves them $900. I bet many break even on this in 2 games. Similar used to be a season seat seat holder reward option for the Brewers and was very popular.

    Forward is the state motto. Which I think is why a state slang term is on the front, very much so trying to make it more so ‘state connect’ than city. Which I actually don’t think is a horrible idea as the Brewers are very much so a statewide supported team like the Packers are. If that was the goal though, should have gotten the rights to use Udder Tuggers.

    Probably about half of them. The old Brewers one was widely regarded Top 10 even Top 5. Most of the leaked new ones for 2026 are pretty awesome (Orioles/Pirates). But also…you are old so you won’t like any of them. Additionally, you are also probably not of the non age demographics these are targeted towards. and note in response to you: These suck and don’t even make sense. This uniform is everything city connect jerseys aren’t supposed to be. The cursive with the fat line underneath? That is such a weird choice.

    I’m guessing this is false and not actually something that was said. Either way it makes no sense. He took over a program that had little to zero historical tourney success. Actually, basically never made the tourney. Bo took them to a Sweet 16 appearance his second year and never lost in the first round till his 5 (and consecutive) tourney appearance. By which time he had already seen the Elite 8. Gard’s resume is nothing like BO’s. Gard has been not making the tourney or choking to a lower seed for a whole decade now. A team built by Gard has never been to the S16.
  9. MrTPlush
    Gard is probably the guy for Wisconsin (not a WI fan fwiw), but that guy is an absolute pro at being a total choke job in the tourney. 3/3 losing in the first round to a 12 seed. 2/2 failing to make the Sweet 16 as a 3 seed. One time failing to score 50 points against a double digit seed. One has to wonder what Gard/WI does to game plan for these impromptu games against unknown opponents. Clearly it isn’t working.

    He won’t play under the option. The purpose of the option is basically a tactic to make Contreras never be a data point in arbitration cases in the future. A jump to $14.5mil next year is unlikely from an arbitration standpoint. He’d basically need to have a 2024 level year or likely even better and still sit outside of the Top 4 in MVP. It becomes a mutual option if he is Top 4 in MVP voting and then he can decline it (still will be arby eligible). It is why the whole “just pick up the option and be nice to Contreras” thing never made sense even if we aspired to extend him. Contreras is signing these contract knowing the purpose of the option year is merely a contract technicality. No one expects it to be picked up.

    Doug Melvin would be calling Yuni B out of retirement right about now.
  12. MrTPlush
    If you took rookie hitters that weren’t phenomenal prospects and they then placed in the ROY voting (that also didn’t put up crazy stats to get votes) you would see most of those guys regress massively and often become fringe MLB players. I think trading Collin’s and Durbin is just playing the odds and likely selling high on them before they have no value 6-12 months from now. We could be wrong…but history says we probably made a good choice.
  13. MrTPlush
    Well, no, I don’t think it is all the revolutionary because we still have a gigantic disadvantage over the Top 10. The gap is arguably getting even bigger. Actually, I’d venture to argue teams like the Cardinals etc. being in the same boat as us actually just makes things even worse for us. Those upper-middle payroll teams weren’t afraid to spend some cash on extension and/or FAs. That at least helped steal some talent from the big markets. Now those Top 10 teams are the only ones not in financial turmoil/distress. If the commish can make his dream happen and put us all in the same TV pot and close the revenue gap because of this, then yes, it is revolutionary and he saved baseball.
  14. MrTPlush
    Where am I defending the system that gives the Dodgers such an advantage? Im sure this isn’t the end of the circus and thus, quite a bit of instability remains. At least enough unknown we probably are going to play it a bit safe financially. Getting to share revenue with a bunch of other doo doo markets is so irrelevant. Until the Yankees/Dodgers/etc. are in that pot we are not any better off. Pointing to this as a step towards that is a big hypothetical. It would almost surely take a lock out and likely a very long one to make that happen. Not only that, but then you’d have to figure out how you would even come to a mutual conclusion when the Dodgers are very blatantly signing stupid contracts so the next wrinkle is how you suddenly institute revenue sharing/cap in 2034-2043 when Ohtani’s contract is actually paid out. That entire hypothetical is one heck of a mess. If the small markets don’t die on that hill in the upcoming CBA I don’t know that it will really ever happen. Regardless they need to figure out the TV stuff. It feels like it has been a constant half decade of playing ‘how and where to watch baseball on my TV’ roulette.
  15. MrTPlush
    1) RSNs were largely dominated by smaller markets. Look at the list of current MLB ran teams and the new ones joining it. We don’t need to close the revenue gap with those teams. I actually greatly disagree we had the least to lose. RSNs sucked, but they also gave financial stability and long term contracts. For teams working with smaller margins, that is a pretty important thing to have . Especially if we are shelling out contracts longer than 2 years. 2) This is probably the only hope…that this is so terrible for a chunk of teams it pushes change. The problem though is this news is probably phenomenal for 10 teams minimum and another 5-10 it is probably a wash. Not sure you could get the votes to create a lockout.
  16. MrTPlush
    Yah, I doubt this is much of a win in the grand scheme. At least from a financial standpoint for the franchise. It’s like celebrating getting $100 of unemployment after losing your job. I guess that is better than $0…but idk if we should go around popping confetti. Were blackouts even a problem anymore for Brewers fans? In market fans could buy the subscription and out of staters either had the same option or MLB.tv?
  17. MrTPlush
    I really wasn’t a big fan of trading Peralta…but this is definitely a trade you happily ship him off for. Not that he is bad, but I am shocked we actually got this kind of haul for him. Rentals just aren’t worth what they used to be. Two MLB ready prospects with pretty good upside.
  18. MrTPlush
    I am pretty sure MLF is only around because they are scared of ruffling the feathers of the players When your franchise QB and star defensive player you backed up the dump truck to get both very publically support him, seems the locker room would not be very supportive of any change. They surely aren’t keeping him for his gameday performance.
  19. MrTPlush
    Much like Rodgers double Hail Mary, Williams TD throw goes down in meaningless history.
  20. MrTPlush
    Yup, another year where I will have zero interest attending a MLB game. Not even a legitimate league at this point.
  21. MrTPlush
    Being competitive will always be more important. I don’t think Brewer fans have ever really cared that much for clinging to certain players to that degree. The last two franchise players they made both became glass and Braun even had the bonus PED scandal. Peralta isn’t even that big of a fan favorite. Actually, they already brought back the preferred fan favorite pitcher (Woodruff).
  22. MrTPlush
    lol, lemme know when MLF and Love are gone. Might have a chance at a playoff win then.
  23. MrTPlush
    MLF and Love ain’t it. MLF constantly running the ball up the middle to waste a down when time is beyond a concern for the Bears and a TD clinches it. Love with a delay of game out of a timeout. That is what losers are made out of.
  24. MrTPlush
    What an idiot.
