    I said trade or release. Trade him if he starts pitching better and someone bites or release him if the struggles continue with no one wanting to trade for him. Either way I don't think he finishes the year here thus opening a spot in the rotation.
  2. MrTPlush
    Would like to see Jungmann be the guy to take Lohse's spot when they trade/release him.
  3. MrTPlush
    Jungmann looks like another middle of the rotation option for the future. Can help keep our starting rotation cheap in the future if he can put it together. Though I am not convinced with how good his stuff is and with that kind of height control has always been an issue. He will need to polish his command since he doesn't have the stuff to get away with a lot of bad pitches.
  4. MrTPlush
    Not very impressed so far. Only thing he can even get close to the plate consistently is his fastball.
  5. MrTPlush
    It looks like it is on the 1st base side, but I don't see where it possibly could be over there. I see bleachers and a bush.
  6. MrTPlush
    They both has been very concerning so far. Harrison is brutal this year, but he held his own last year in rookie ball. Gatewood on the other hand has been quite bad at his rookie and A ball stops. Give them some time...things not promising so far though.
  7. MrTPlush
    No one cares about the MLB draft. Let's alone past two rounds. One of their crappy shows would get better ratings

    Congrats to Wisconsin native Kyle Cody. Was amazing to get the chance to be able to play against him in a small town and watch him evolve into the legit MLB prospect he is now. Even sweeter for him I think he had some bias for the Twins growing up so he gets drafted by a team he grew up just over an hour away from. Wish him the best to represent Wisconsin well.
  9. MrTPlush
    I could only dream.
  10. MrTPlush
    Maybe scouts just weren't feeling him? If a scout says they don't think he can stick at catcher or won't hit enough at that position you are going to plummet a lot. I don't know though. Bad luck is another possibility. Other players falling into the laps of teams that might have drafted him already. Like maybe the Brewers were going to take him, but unexpectedly Clark fell to them...this pushing Betts down and so on. A lot of risk in HS catchers. They could easily end up like Coulter and moving positions to kill a massive chunk of their value. Unpredictable to say the least.
  11. MrTPlush
    Well like every pitcher in this draft(so it seems) he struggled after a great 2014, has had some control issues, and as mentioned he is/was injured for a good chunk of the year. Coming into the year he was possible Top 10 pick.
  12. MrTPlush
    The luxury of not signing the #1 pick the year prior. Only team left that could afford to sign him.
  13. MrTPlush
    Probably going to require an overslot signing bonus. Not sure the Brewers could nab him unless that really go cheap the rest of the draft. Which may not be a wise idea.
  14. MrTPlush
    Betts, Kingery, Cody(bias pick for me), and there are some solid middle of the rotation starters out there. Matuella...but that's is a massive risk with questionable high reward.
  15. MrTPlush
    Not likely Funkhouser would go back to school. He would be a senior and lose all leverage. There is no financial gain from going back to school. Seniors are apopular pick in the later half of the first ten round because the kids have no say in their signing bonus...thus saving bonus pool money. Brewers used this tactic last year. They pretty much take what they get.
  16. MrTPlush
    He won't be drafted for a long long time now. No one is wasting a pick on him now. Like most guys who are set on going to college he will drop in the 30 round area at least.
  17. MrTPlush
    I am sure he is an option at #40....but that is a long way to drop.
  18. MrTPlush
    100% Agree. The draft isn't the FA Market to help your team now. You don't draft a guy thinking he can help you in a year...that would be horrible drafting strategy. Astros are a good example this year, drafted a SS #2 when they have the #1 prospect in the game debuting today. Not to mention this year's crop of college pitchers looks like a pile of question marks and projects. Not players that are ready for the bigs soon.
  19. MrTPlush
    No....seems like a straight slot bonus pick.
  20. MrTPlush
    Considered one of the best pure hitters in the draft(if not the best). Speed/hard contact/good baserunning skills/power potential. Very well could stay in CF. Pretty good pick at #15. A lot of places had him in the Top 10 prospects and going as high as #4. Hard to complain with the pick. People need to remember he is just 18. He will grow still...Hard to totally project him right now.
  21. MrTPlush
    Aiken, Buehler, Whitley....in that order. Of course I don't know what Aiken's medicals look like. Not the biggest fan of Whitley...questionable contact. We have enough questionable contact hitters in the minors.
  22. MrTPlush
    Just wait a couple more years....we are almost to 2000 birthdates.
  23. MrTPlush
    FS Wisconsin has a promo for tickets to Thursday's game and they decided a video featuring Harper hitting a homer and Braun striking out like a fool was a good idea. Makes me just sprint to my computer to buy tickets.
  24. MrTPlush
    I don't think so. Drafts can change dramatically in a year and not signing your pick means you aren't refilling your system. You want to get people in your system ASAP. Morals are the other problem. You would have to be one horrible human being to intentionally pick a kid knowing you won't sign them. It would be completely wrong and a very good chance you get a big fine and lose the big outright if you can't find a good enough reason why you didn't sign them. It would be really hard to pull off something like that without being caught.
  25. MrTPlush
    It just seems like on one side of the scale you have kids and other people (who for all we know could not possibly have reacted in time) being seriously injured, and on the other side of the scale we have... people mad because they have to watch through a thin screen that barely affects their view of the field whatsoever? It's not like anybody is calling to ban baseball here or anything. Oh sure we could make it into that argument. But as prices continue to go up why would they make it less enjoyable? I don't see a massive movement from fans to make screens go farther. I don't see parents coming out and complaining that it is too dangerous. I guess they don't mind the possible consequences for sitting close to the field as they sat there in the first place. There needs to be some kind of responsibility in these situations. There are many amazing seats in every stadium. Find one that suits you. You can still have awesome seats in the infield behind the net. It really isn't that hard. Maybe extend the nets at Fenway where this incident happened. They are extremely tiny compared to every other parks. Still I am no supporter of ruining part of the experience over the .000001% chance of getting severely hurt by a flying object from the field.
