I did present some. Some here need to understand that not everyone has the time to dig as deep as some others here do. I've been told that there's a few people on here that either work for the organization, or have serious connections to people that do. Maybe it's them who are the ones who get offended by having their opinions and/or words challenged? Who knows.
-
Thanks for correcting me. Yes, you're correct. But, Garza was absolutely horrible. Lol. I didn't like signing Cain to that long of a contract either.. Imo, they should have made a move like those again, a few years ago when we had an awesome starting rotation, that we all knew wouldn't be here very much longer.
-
Then those here who obviously don't agree with me and a few others here, should feel free to ignore us. Instead of acting like they're the know it alls of everything.
-
I wasn't talking about me ignoring anyone. I'm not the one who's offended for someone having different opinions or expectations of our favorite team. It's the ones that get offended and/or belligerent with me for simply having a different opinion, or bringing up hard truths, and criticizing the team. They should feel free to ignore me then. Lol
-
Am I and a few others the only ones here that are beyond frustrated with simply just making the playoffs? Personally, a few years ago, when we had arguably the best starting rotation in MLB, was probably the best chance we had to win a WS. And they barely did anything those couple years to get over the hump. Unless we get extremely lucky, I don't see us having that good of a chance again, for QUITE a while.
-
What I think may help, is having an option to be able to opt out of seeing comments from certain people. Then, the people who don't agree with someone's opinions, don't even have to see them. If there's not an option like that already.
-
In your opinion. SMDH. I'm done replying to you on this topic.
-
All I'm saying, is with small market teams especially, their windows to win a championship are few a far between. So, when one looks like it opened itself, then they should at least try to capitalize on that opportunity a little more often, before we lose our good players to other teams, and the windows slams shut again.
-
I wasn't referring to you. I was referring to the person who called me "ignorant". Lol
-
The problem though, is we can't(or refuse) to keep our good young players in Milwaukee, once their arby years are up, and hit free agency. So, when we look like we have an actual chance of making a deep run in the playoffs, then I think they should try and do SOMETHING go for it occasionally, before our window gets slammed shut by our really good players going elsewhere, and the vicious cycle of relying on pure luck starts all over again.
-
Look at my comment asking people here that winning a championship is what teams are supposed to strive for. It actually got 2 thumbs down. Lol that's absolutely hilarious imo. I mean really? Winning a WS doesn't mean crap to them? 🤣
-
I agree. There's always risk in making moves though, and there always will be. Same can be said about not making moves. The risk there, is when it looks like their window is open more to make a splash in the playoffs, and then do nothing, they risk their window being slammed shut again.
-
I'm not expecting them to make a serious trade/signing every year, or up their payroll tremendously. But the ownership group could definitely spend more than what they do. Instead of feeding us bites of apple every year, and praying it tastes like steak, it would be nice to actually be fed actual steak once in a while.
-
Exactly. Thank you. At least there's another person here now that understands that.
-
I don't need to deep dive to know they could easily make a move or 2 once in a while to try and get better now. Notice how when the ownership group took over, they went out and made a splash to get Yelich, and since, absolutely nothing but a bunch of "bites at the apple" trying to get lucky. I think getting Yelich was only meant to make our fan base think they were serious about winning a championship How many bites at the apple will it take before our fanbase gets full of apple, and start wanting a better chance at steak or lobster?
-
So now you sling insults around, simply because I have a different opinion? Lol. NICE! Apparently this isn't actually a fan forum. It's now morphed into a site where everyone is supposed to believe, and fall in line with the opinions of a certain select few people's opinions, and blindly accept them as being the LAW. Lol wow, yeah, uh-huh, ok. I'll get right on that.
-
Wrong. You just automatically assume I mean he should spend $200M-$250M. Too many people here think drastically. I'll say it......again. We have a loaded farm system. USE IT! Lol they can replenish it through the draft this coming year and next.
-
In your opinion. 🤷♂️
-
I provided possible solutions. They just didn't align with your opinions, so therefore, you passed them off as nothing. We have a loaded farm system. Start USING IT! Lol. They've been drafting pretty good for a few years now, so they'd be able to replenish the prospects that would be traded away.
-
He's not afraid to try though. That was a stupid move though. Haslam would just be the bankroll and not the one making the moves.
-
Maybe we'd be better off if Jimmy Haslam bought the team. He's definitely not afraid to spend some $$ and shake things up from time to time to seriously try and compete for a championship.
-
They're not disagreeing? Lol seriously? I'm not dumb. They definitely are. Oh well. That's why it's called a discussion/debate.
-
I meant the organization. You didn't realize that? I'm sick of their lip service. It's time for action.
-
Never once have I claimed to be better than anyone here. I'm a mere mortal like everyone else. Some people on here though don't seem to realize that's all they are too. Have a nice night.
-
I'm talking about on here. There's only about 3-4 of us on here that openly criticize the team when we believe it's warrated. Me, Turbo, and maybe 1 or 2 others. That's it. Lol nice try. Most of the people on here that obviously can't stand me(and i don't care in the least) , probably work for the Brewes, or know someone that does, and hearing criticism offends them. Well, that's not our problem.
