  1. If having one of the best records in baseball so far this year is mediocrity, your definition of mediocrity is skewed. If winning 93 games last year was mediocrity, only 4 teams of 30 were above mediocre. Mediocre teams are more than a deadline move away from being serious WS contenders. The mediocre teams are the teams debating whether or not to sell. I want the Brewers to get a Suarez or O’Hearn because I don’t want a repeat of the past two years in the playoffs, and I think a bat will help. But under no circumstances do I believe that what I’m watching is mediocre, no matter how many times the word is used by some to describe what I’m seeing. and as far as “settling”? I have no control over what the team does, and it’s impossible to prove the effect of a trade that didn’t happen.
  2. Agreed. Now we got Bargatze (who I think is very funny), instead of the game. With the frustration at the home plate umpire on top of the “almost” defensive plays, I’m not having fun.
  3. It's the celebration of 25 years at AmFam. Have you been hearing about the home run derby? That is after the game. There are autograph signings and other fan activities.
  4. I think you send Miz down to skip a start. Pitch, go down the next day, rest, come back up 10 days later and pitch. He only misses one start, and you aren’t an arm short.
  5. I felt pretty confident he wasn’t getting a pitch in the zone on strike 3. Guess he didn’t see it that way and swung anyway
  6. Frelick said he expects to be back Friday, but needs to pass some tests. https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/baseball/news/brewers-sal-frelick-expects-to-return-friday/
  7. The Dodgers added six players at the deadline last year. SIX! Did they fret and worry about fragile clubhouse chemistry or did they just try to make the team better? I’m so tired of hearing about chemistry. Make the moves to make the team better.
  8. Having Siegler as the DH…below average. Having the DH bat seventh…odd. Having him bunt with two outs…awful
  9. Yes. Preferred Parking is the best. I head back to Madison after the game and it is so simple to get on westbound 94. Just make sure you are not in the right lane when exiting or you will get dumped onto Eastbound 94. Stay in either of the two left lanes.
  10. You're ignoring the fact that @sveumrules thinks the Brewers are gonna somehow lose 22 times. The optimism thread is not the place for that kind of negativity.
  11. This is from 2022, but yes, Nats park is beautiful.
  12. You probably saw Juan Soto's comments on leaving "a lot of money on the table" by not making the all star team. So I am sure missing the all-star bonus was an aspect of the reaction. On the subject of Soto, he would have gotten a $100k bonus. Or, as I like to call it, .01% of his $765 million contract. Seems to me if you get a contract like that, the baseline expectation should be all-star.
  13. Please, please, please, no more AI-generated posts. Especially when you ask it a leading question that supports something that you have posted on many times yourself.
  14. As we pause for the all-star break, here are some updates: Yesterday's win was the Brewers' 4300th in franchise history. They are now 4300-4472 all-time. The last time this franchise was "only" 172 games under 500 was exactly 25 years ago today. Jeff D'Amico shut out KC 4-0. The next day, they started a four-game losing streak and never got back to this level until yesterday. As my original post from two years ago stated, I've been around since Day 1. This is as much, if not more, fun than I have had as a fan. The Brewers are 133 games over 500 since Mark A bought the team. 1684-1551. Finally, I appreciate having this site to tell about these things. Because of you folks, my wife has a lot of eyerolling taken off of her plate.
