Nope. I'll continue to root for the Crew. I'm just done having faith in them actually trying to win a championship. All that's been doing, is setting myself up for disappointment. Year in, year out.
-
Then, and I'll say it again, they shouldn't keep saying their trying to actually win a championship, because they obviously aren't. We've had a deep farm system for how many years now? 3-4? Yet they continue to not make serious attempts to use even a few of our prospects, to make a meaningful attempt to get over the hump to win one.
-
How many more years of that very thing happening is it going to take, before you finally realize it's been a very frustrating trend? To the point that it starts forming a very obvious picture? Well, to those fans that aren't in complete denial at least.
-
Completely different sport. C'mon now. That's because NFL football is now our national sport. Baseball isn't anymore.
-
Like I and others have said before, and will continue to say, then they need to stop lying to our fan base by claiming they're trying to bring Milwaukee a championship.
-
Don't need a number. Simply attempting to make a meaningful move or 2 would be nice. They don't though.
-
Most actually try and do it though, or if they don't, their fan base finally catches on to their lies, and find other teams to root for.
-
I'm willing to bet he would've taken a shorter deal, with a similar yearly average.
-
Most fans here know he doesn't owe us anything. All we've ever said, is then MA and the front office should stop claiming they truly want to bring a championship to Milwaukee.
-
And we fizzle out miserably in the playoffs, almost every year. Regular season win totals don't mean jack squat, if/when we promptly get bounced from the playoffs almost every year.
-
MLB definitely doesn't want small market teams to win a WS. If they had their way, they'd prefer small market teams not making the playoffs at all.
-
Nobody ever said we expect MA to spend anywhere near $250M on their payroll. We've simply said when it looks we have a 1-3yr window to really do some damage in the playoffs, especially the years when winning the division looks likely, then they should spend some $$ to make a move or 2 to try and get over the hump. Especially when we have a deep farm system to make deals with.
-
Highly doubt it.
-
If the teams interested in him are only looking to sign him to a short contract, he may not have a choice.
-
Sending $$ with him just isn't something I can see MA doing at all. Also, I'm not sure how moving a Platinum Glove winner off 2nd base, would be a smart thing to do. Ortiz is a SS by trade.
-
Not sure what they would do with Hoskins then. Doubt anyone would want to pay what he's owed this year.
-
I think when it's all said and done, he'll end up in Boston. Probably on a shorter deal. Maybe 2-3yrs tops.
-
Yeah, that makes some sense. Everyone expreses grief differently.
-
Give them time.
-
I agree. Devin is a heck of a reliever, but the 1 thing that irked me, was how he would overuse his change-up in many games. When a pitcher does that, it makes them very predictable.
-
Like several here have said many times before, we've been consistently winning division championships & making the playoffs for quite a while now, but when will that finally stop being enough to pacify our fan base? We're talking about actually doing what it takes once in a while, to actually try a win it all, instead of relying on pure luck, year in and year out.
-
I haven't seen any statements from him.
-
So our chances of winning a WS championship solely relies on 100% pure luck. Gee, that's just super dandy. We'll obviously be waiting a LONG time then. Sometimes teams need to try and make their own luck.
-
Yeah, uh-huh, ok. You should look up the definition too. It definitely is a form of gaslighting.
-
Sometimes though, it's how small market teams become how the Orioles and Tigers are now.
