  1. He might be throwing an couple of MPH more than last year but so far it doesn't look like much has improved over last year.
  2. I realize you are trying to be funny, but this act is going to get old pretty quick. Grandal and Pina are not in the same stratosphere. Got that right. Almost as much as you've got it wrong.
  3. Is it me or does that Cardinal lineup not look all that imposing? Bottom.of the order looks pretty imposing........ THat'll happen when you hang cookies.

  5. If DS needs cover for the decisions he makes then he isnt the GM I thought he was. That whole theory is unrealistic and unnecessarily complicated.
  6. If you want to run DS out of town then that would certainly be a quick way to achieve that. I know if my boss started arbitrarily making decisions about my project or my team, I'd be out the door before you could say lunacy. You undermine my position like that and we've got a problem.
  7. Good news. Thanks for the update.
  8. [sarcasm]That's your opinion![/sarcasm]
  9. I don't know what makes today magical. I didn't say anthing about today being the day something had to happen. Not sure what the point is there. If it's always about he money and he hasn't signed with Milwaukee, then they aren't willing to pay his price. This isn't nearly as complicated as some of you want it to be. It's not like he's not signing here because he won't close. It's not always as simplistic as you're portraying, either. Negotiations aren't always that cut and dry that just because we said "We'll pay X" and he hasn't said yes that it means it's over. Free agency wouldn't last much past November if that was the case. He could, yes, still be holding out for a multi year deal. Not because it's just going to "magically" appear but because it only takes one team and as circumstances change in spring training, he may still feel a team will get desperate and make the move. And that's fine if you don't think Stearns is offering 1/20, but I can guarantee if they're actually negotiating with him as is being reported, Stearns is well aware that a 1/10 offer is a waste of his time. And I doubt he's a fan of wasting his own time. You're right, contextual factors matter. In this case, in this vacuum, I don't think it's complicated. Time will tell.
  10. This is rich. So it I don't agree with our "opinion" I'm not a real fan?
  11. Keuchel was down to those two teams at one point as well. Maybe it's real, maybe it's not. Brewers don't usually come out on top of these bidding wars because they won't get involved in bidding wars.

  13. Because what, he's sat all winter and now, magically, his dream contract will appear for no reason? C'mon now. What I'm saying is I don't see DS even making a one year offer at that price.
  14. If you were evaluating this team as though Nelson were going to be part of it, that is your mistake. I wasn't and still am not. Jeffress is on the trail back. If they can't replace 55 innnings of Knebel then they were never as good as you thought they were. Reds are being over hyped and the Cardinals needed to get better just to catch up. That was before we singed Moose and Yas. The Cubs didn't get better. Signing Kimbrel is an overreaction much the same as overreacting to this weeks injures. There will be more.
  15. I've been told that line of thinking doesn't make any sense.
  16. Sorry, but that doesn't make any sense. Does that go for every team or just the Brewers? Because he's going to sign somewhere. It makes perfect sense. There are teams out there with deeper pockets and all Kimbrel has to do is wait. The situation isn't going to get any better in terms of a team needing a closer. If he isn't singed it's about the money and I don't see the Brewers ponying up the price. If they were, he'd be signed. Are you saying he is going to sign here?
