    I think all it means is that Milwaukee will have to pick up more salary if they deal him. If he's playing well in July, teams will ask. If he's on the DL, they won't.

    I don't think it has to be either or. He had a pretty good 16 start run last season before falling apart in September. Based on his minor league numbers he wasn't going to consistently be the guy he was through his first September start. Maybe he is hurt, or maybe he ends up on the DL so he can work on his game without the pressure of pitching every 5 days; but I think it's unrealistic to think he'd be a definite mid-rotation piece who is now struggling because he's either hurt or Derek Johnson somehow screwed him up.

    We remember. But we also remember he was pretty bad before he got called up last year, and for the most part struggled throughout his minor league career. He was capable of putting stretches together like this, no idea why he is so "on or off." Yeah, last year was an aberration based on his career. Doesn't mean he can't get better, but I waited all last season for him to fall apart. He didn't, and this spring I actually started to feel like he could be a rotation piece. Maybe now that I'm back to assuming the worst with him he'll pitch well again.

    What does this mean? I assume you're saying that they're better off without Gomez, but how? What does not having Gomez on the team do that was hindered by having him there? I'm serious about these questions. He played 5+ seasons in Milwaukee and was worth 16 WARP, but people seem to think the Brewers are so much better off without him. It's easy to look at it now and say it was good to get rid of him, but what if he was playing like 2014 Gomez? Would people still feel this way?

    The radio team talked about it a lot as well. There were several jokes about the west coast games all being done before a 6:10 start in Milwaukee. And Andy Grammer having to wait forever to start his post-game show.

    I like the way Stearns is churning the bottom of the roster looking for talent. It may never amount to anything valuable, but the more players that run through that 25th spot, the more chances that they'll turn up one that is valuable. If they end up keeping the the Freemans and the Kirkmans (guys that get released) in AAA, all the better.

    Steph Curry last night. Sheesh!

    At this point Milone would cost about $3.5 million (current contract less 20ish percent). To me that would be worth trying to upgrade the staff, but they could also wait and sign him to a league minimum deal. It's not like another team would sign him and slide him right into the rotation like Milwaukee could.

    If you are currently her landlord, it's illegal for you to enter the place without 12 hour notice. Additionally, it would definitely be illegal to take anything that isn't your dad's personal property. Absent a will, that stuff is yours even if you have to go through probate.

    Carter is really fun to watch. He has such easy power, it's amazing that he doesn't look like he swings hard, but when he barrels a baseball it goes forever. Also, the Brewers are better than the Yankees!

    http://m.mlb.com/news/article/175822100/brewers-ryan-braun-rebuilding-trade-value Mike Petriello also ponders possible trade suitors for Braun. Interesting to note that Braun's wRC+ over the last calendar year is almost identical to his career mark.

    [sarcasm]The Brewers should have expected this type of return on Lind and, in fact, should expect it every time they deal a vet. Every. Single. Time.[/sarcasm]

    Villar owns Arrieta!!

    They still have plenty of flexibility. By the time they need a spot for someone coming off the 60-day DL there will be some answers on some of these players. Walsh might be cut loose, Hill might be cut loose, or someone else. A month from now, which is the earliest it will be an issue, they'll dump someone that we don't care about.

    Really, their best bet right now is to see if Peralta/Jungmann/Anderson/Davies can be effective at all. All have had varying levels of success at the MLB level (I know the sample size is small for Davies). There's no percentage in bringing up any guys who management think are part of the real future of the Brewers, as they would be burning service time in a throwaway season. Keep running this bunch out, pull the worst of them when Garza comes back and send that one out. Start filling in with call-ups after the All Star break.

    Cappy coming in again. He's going to throw about 130 innings in relief this year.
  17. QuevedosTongue
    Regarding the rule change for no-hitters that occurred, IIRC it was the Andy Hawkins game that prompted the rule change. 8 inning no-hitter, but he walked a bunch and ended up losing 4-0, I think. Also, for you Seinfeld fans, I feel like the way Jungmann is pitching I now say his name the same way Jerry used to say Newman. You know, Jungmann!

    First, there's always question about the outcome. That's what makes baseball great. Given the weather outlook in Chicago, I think it's 50/50 that this game gets played in it's entirety. Feels like it'll be a shortened or suspended game, if not rained out altogether.

    Adam Lind currently has a negative WARP, so the Brewers are winning that trade, even without figuring in Chris Carter's production.

    Rutherford could easily be gone by the time we pick. Getting a lot of love recently. Well, I suppose if that happened he wouldn't be the pick. I mean, they couldn't pick him, then fight with the other team over who gets to sign him, could they? Stearns looks pretty small, I'm not sure I'd take him in a cage match against any other GM. Although youth would be on his side.

    [sarcasm]C'mon, there is no way a college basketball coach would do what he needed to do to get a star recruit to come to his school, then forget any promises or step on anyone once that player has moved on. This is real life, that just doesn't happen.[/sarcasm]

    Judging by the proposals on this board, I feel like Brewerfan nation will be pretty disappointed when a deal for Lucroy finally gets made.
  23. QuevedosTongue
    Are you serious about these posts or are you just trolling? Because you seem to be advocating dumping the newly hired pitching coach after 18 games. 18!

    They're not going to sign someone like Lincecum right now. They're going to give the guys on the roster a much longer leash than April 24th. Also, Garza comes back in a month or so. So right now the rotation is: 1. Nelson - the 'Ace' of this motley crew 2. Peralta - Will be given every chance to figure it out 3. Jungmann - Will be given every chance to figure it out 4. Anderson - Has had moderate success in the bigs, no reason to kick him to the curb after 4 starts, 2 of which were good. 5. Davies - If they boot him back to AAA they have options (Guerra, Cravy, etc.) they can use, but he's going to get more than 2 starts to show. When Garza comes back Davies likely goes down, unless he's suddenly pitching lights out and they Peralta and/or Jungmann are still struggling. The reality is that spending a few million dollars on Lincecum isn't going to do anything for them anyway, outside of possibly bringing a return of prospect(s) at the deadline. Given Lincecum's stats the past 4 seasons (sub 100 ERA+) signing him would be flushing money away for a player who isn't an asset.

    The one report I've heard about the Brewers is that they have been very tight with Rutherford, so I'd be surprised if he wasn't the pick at this point.
