    This is how I feel. Every thread bleeds into the same discussion. And then there’s the confirmation bias posters who can’t wait for Murphy to make a decision they can second-guess. any word on Ortiz? I have to wonder if he’s been nursing a sore neck for a few days.

    That’s the only metric I care about. PCA has a PFI of 179, one of the highest in the live ball era. His weighted xPFI, which factors in that he plays for the Cubs, is an astounding 221. Only players to come close to that number? The entirety of the Cardinals organization. @sveumrules, check my math.

    Cheating Dodgers played 489 games in the last 486, apparently
  4. Underachiever
    Your use of advanced metrics (win totals?, winning pct?) confuses me.

    Careful you don't hallucinate because you can get meaning out of what isn't there, but...you are chafin' over past deadline deals for pitchers. It doesn't mean that shelby what happens in the future, norris is it a sign that Arnold doesn't know how to deal relievers at the deadline. It's a mears coincidence and seems like you are making a montas out of a molehill. Don't be a hader.

    When they take the field as Cardinals, hopefully the 2026 Brewers' World Series replica ring that you are wearing (and never take off) can function as a fidget spinner to relieve your angst.

    I look forward to this picture being inserted. It's as much of a sure thing as the salmon returning to Capistrano.

    Go ahead and look. Guy said "lagging behind all season." Don't move his goalpost

    I wanted them to get hitting, and I am concerned about the same-old, same-old in the playoffs, but come on, MKE has the 5th most runs per game in MLB. Not "lagging behind all season."

    There are 50 games left. Your math takes them to the end of August, and if the Brewers are tied with Chicago going into September, there will be puckering. Magic number remains at 45.

    17-12
  13. Underachiever
    Oooh, that's a good one. Well done.
  14. Underachiever
    This must be Murph's account.
  15. Underachiever
    Well, if the Brewers trade for JJ Abrams, it makes sense they would give up Cameron Crowe.
  16. Underachiever
    Make it Dodger blue, then.
  17. Underachiever
    Agree with this. Didn't this very board say that the Hader trade messed with the chemistry of the clubhouse? If they trade for someone, one of their teammates may lose a job. The front office zigs, the message board mopes zag. Whatever action or non-action the front office takes, the response will be "Not like that!" Now, go get Yordan Alvarez for Pena and four other prospects and kick Yelich to the bench.

    What is the mlb record for most games falling behind 2-0?

    Trading Smoltz, a 22nd-round draft choice who at the time was a AA pitcher with a 5-10 record, for Alexander, who went 9-0 with a 1.53 ERA down the stretch for the Tigers after they traded for him? People focus on Smoltz' career, but imagine if the Brewers got a guy who went 9-0 down the stretch and in the playoffs. They would be celebrating Arnold's genius. And, the Tigers only won the division on the second-to-last day of the season, making Alexander's presence even more crucial in a time when only the division winner made the playoffs. I'd take that trade for the Brewers. Isn't that exactly what we are hoping for when we talk about trading for Skubal, Ryan, Detmers, etc? Just because Smoltz had an extreme outlier of a career doesn't make it a bad trade. Bravo to the Braves for identifying Smoltz as an arm they could develop.

    It seems as if you are rating/valuing the Brewer prospects on a different scale than prospects from other teams. I don't think front offices do that. I imagine they are not struggling to comp or value Braylon Payne. The teams may not agree on what that value is, but determining a player's value is what has happened in every single trade in MLB history. Then, if you are essentially saying that the Dodgers are the "so many teams" that can offer more, no argument from me. Your use of the qualifier "so many" may be what is throwing me off here. Doesn't matter. I don't expect the Brewers to end up with Skubal. But it will be because the Tigers want more than the Brewers want to give (Or the $10 mil in salary). Not that other teams have more to give.
  22. Underachiever
    I don’t understand how “so many teams can offer more for him?” Can you explain that? Who has more to trade than Milwaukee?
  23. Underachiever
    No, WE are not.
  24. Underachiever
    He just knocked a two-out, two-run single on an 0-2 pitch off of...Chris Sale. 3-0 Padres.
  25. Underachiever
    They are probably assuming that the Brewers will have nothing to play for when they clinch everything with 20 games left.
