I work in the south side of MKE and live a few minutes south of the City.

Even though I knew it would sell out, I procrastinated and didn't buy tickets to On Deck this year. Duh. I am looking for 2 adult tickets and 2 for my kids. If anyone has any to sell, please contact me. Thanks!

https://blogs.fangraphs.com/estimated-tv-revenues-for-all-30-mlb-teams/ This is from 2016, but an extra $160M in tv revenue would be relatively helpful. Our great attendance numbers only help so much to make up for the other things we lack. Well see what our new TV deal brings, but I bet it won’t get us even to half way up the list.

If we got Didi at 3/$42M, like MLBTR guessed, I’d be happy. Id still be plenty happy if we got him and he was our big FA acquisition. I think DS can be creative with smaller FA signings and trades to stay competitive with the top of the NL Central. That’s a price and length we can handle.

With his alleged pitch framing woes, I am now more in favor of robo umps.
-
I disagree. We are getting a known commodity that has produced at an above average level. Burnes was absolute garbage last year. He’s obviously still got a high ceiling still, but we’d be trading a what if and potential for a known producer with less control left. It would hurt, as I like Burnes, but I think it would still be a good deal.

^ This is my favorite part of today so far.
-
The Mariners perceived biggest needs are starting pitching and bullpen help. That doesn’t match up, because we need that as well! Definitely looking forward to see what we gave up.

Jesus Aguilar to Tampa, Jake Faria to MIL
MKEguy replied to Warning Track Power's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I like the ceiling and control of the return. This is the type of trade I’ve been hoping for. Seeing some of the proposals for Leake type players scare me a bit. -
I’ve got Hulu, which carries FSN / FS WI, or whatever it’s called. Am I SOL when it comes to watching game 3?? I am sure the answer is in here somewhere but I was unable to find it.

Khris Davis ....the most consistent hitter in history
MKEguy replied to markedman5's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Our very own Tristan Archer had a 3.42 ERA for 3 years straight. Go Brewers. -
What happened to Brewers super fan?
MKEguy replied to TexasCheesehead's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Freeway is still around doing freeway stuff. I never knew he was known to Brewer fans. I thought he was a downtown legend of sorts. Does anyone know his story? He’s a nice, extremely well intentioned, yet very reserved guy. -
Mass, please expound on "own his rights through 2021." Are you referring to 3 more years of minor league control? He hasn't made it to the majors yet, so I'd imagine he'd still have 6 years, right??

Dodged a bullet? (Lynn, Archer, Cobb all struggling)
MKEguy replied to TURBO's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
I started a new thread in the major league area. I was thinking about how crappy Walker and Holland have been. This is what I posted. That one will probably get locked... Two of the FA’s I really wanted DS to look at, for different reasons, were Neil Walker and Greg Holland. I wanted Walker to step into the 2b job so we can either have a bench of or get rid of Sogard, Villar or Perez. We can debate the value of those players, but my thought here was to get Walker once the FA price floor fell out. I thought he’d easily out produce any other option we had at 2b. I wanted to look at Holland for the same financial reasons as Walker, due the floor dropping out. I thought the bullpen would be strong, but who doesn’t want another outstanding arm, especially if we got him for a cheap one year deal. I didn’t think our bullpen would be able to produce what it has so far. Oh boy, am I glad we didn’t sign them if the (small sample alert!) first month is any indication of the remainder of the season. Walker’s ops+ is 18, ops is .428 and has a war of -0.8 so far this year. Holland has an era of 7.36, although it’s only 7 IP. The only time I’ve seen him was when he blew up against us a few weeks ago. He looked terrible. This last off-season had plenty of moves that are already looking good, Cain, Yelich and Jennings are all looking solid. Speaking of FA’s, a few others that we were discussing; Cobb’s era is at 9.68. Arrieta’s era is at 3.49. Lynn’s era is at 8.37 What a crappy crapshoot. -
I just saw this convo was in the transaction area too...

What radio station is this on today?
-
And with Yelich off the DL, we’ll hopefully have an exciting pinch hit when we’re up by 5 runs in the 7th when Guerra comes out.
-
So, who's closing?? Albers?
-
YAS!
-
I'm not disagreeing, but managers are weird with things.
-
It's every managers move Hold my beer. -Kapler
-
Let me clarify... Pitching his closer in the 9th in a tied home game is a CC move, right??
-
Does this mean Albers is the closer? Would CC have thrown Knebel out there in the 9th? That's a CC move, correct??
-
Also done with Sogard... I keep going back to the transactions thread discussing 2b. I've always hated Brandon Phillips, but I'd give him 2b right now. DFA Sogard and Villar and bring up Taylor Williams. Let's get crazy and overreact. And what has Villar done to be lumped into Sogards terribleness? Villar is on the same page in my book entitled "overreactions early in the season."
