  1. Cubs love Brewer castoffs the same way the Vikings sign ex-Packers.
  2. After Bregman struck out in the 9th with the bases loaded last night, someone posted this on the Cubs site. I'm still chuckling:
  3. Made a last-minute decision to drive from Madison to see the game last night. After the walk-off on Sunday, I just wanted to keep the feeling going. Happy I did it. Love watching Miz pitch, and it kept me away from the IGT.
  4. If your starters are only going five, you better have multiple inning guys. It seems like the evolution of the pen, nothing more. You had the old-style long relief guys because it was unusual for the starters to have a short outing. The long relief guy was there to wear one when the team had a short start due to ineffectiveness or injury. Now, it's essential.
  5. Red Sox are now the 3rd AL wild card. 13-game winning streaks fix a lot of things
  6. Fun game. Weather couldn’t have been more perfect. Good crowd, into the game despite the Brewers a pretty pulseless team…until they weren’t. Esteury Ruiz and Wild Bill, involved in that three-team trade, both hitting HRs. and I caught a ball, had ice cream, good seats. The win made it great
  7. And let me add, that just because they can, doesn't mean they should. I hate the idea of the Olympics shutting down the sport. Like the all-star game, I would be fine if no Brewers were chosen for the Olympics, and the players from MKE can simply rest for a week.
  8. And the WBC as well.
  9. Regarding the bold, unless Arnold says, "we couldn't take on any more money after the McCullers trade", how will you know?
  10. PCA on the red carpet, bringing pleated khakis back? I got a whole new wardrobe in storage if this is true.
  11. This kind of discussion always reminds of the Doyle Alexander-John Smoltz trade (and the Sabathia trade for MKE, of course). Haha, Tigers, you gave up a hall of famer for a 35-year-old pitcher. But, Alexander went 9-0 down the stretch in 1987 and got them into the playoffs, where they lost to the Twins. They held off Toronto by two games, and Alexander got the win against Toronto in the first game of the final series, where Detroit caught the Jays. Was that a bad trade for the Tigers? I'm sure it felt pretty good during that season. At some point, you have to give the front office some grace, and not re-litigate every trade 10 years down the road. I think all of the WAR computation for the various trades can get silly. Do you want an 8-WAR player this season, or a guy who gives you one WAR for 9 years so you can say you won the trade?
  12. After a lifetime of watching baseball, I still don't know what a balk is. I am surprised when it is called almost every single time.
  13. Am I in the Lift&Pull Generation? Or am I too old? I'm too old, aren't I.
  14. Ortiz for Skubal, who says no? Although the Tigers would have to throw in Mize to make it work.
  15. To my knowledge, no. I checked it out a few years ago because my dad did it in a home talent league game many years ago. Made the first out, team batted around, dad made the second out, they batted around, and he made the third out.
  16. What are the Phillies gonna say when Lara gets added to the All-star roster after 5 games in the majors?
