    My entire Christmas haul was Brewer gear. Have my plane ticket to Spring training bought, several games at AmFam picked and bought. Let’s go!

    Couldn't resist. Trigger warning!

    Good game-day restaurants all around the park. Willie’s tacos, other places whose names I can’t remember. Anything to take attention from that dark mausoleum of a park.

    Yikes. The spread between 1 and 2 is the same as the distance between 2 and 9. Let's see the Pack nudge that number over 70.

    Bought my plane ticket already!

    Willis-Reed!

    The Bucks have draft picks?

    I was referring to this part of the quote: Would have been nice to know that before the other younger CBs transferred out looking for playing time. I don't expect Lucas to come back, but perhaps one of the other DBs who left could reconsider.

    As Kekahuna showed, you can often come back to the team from the portal.

    I would love to see the Jets bring Rodgers back and draft a quarterback to develop. I am sure Rodgers would be a valuable mentor to the man replacing him. I'll buy the popcorn.

    Tammy Faye: The Musical closed after only five days.

    I don't recall Bauers playing many games at DH with Hoskins at 1B. You are correct; but I think starting Bauers at DH and Hoskins at 1b in game 1 of the Mets’ series is probably burned in our brains.

    Hey, the Brewers' manager has a Manager of the Year award. **Check** Cubs' manager doesn't. **Mate**

    Full 16 oz would be good. He's definitely not a tall boy.

    I have real respect for the person filming that. Were they skating backward the whole time? And framing it perfectly. Well done!

    Cub fans believe that a trade for Luzaedo is imminent.
  17. Underachiever
    Bucks shot better from 3 than they did from 2. A 51-15 advantage from three is a good formula

    Today I learned that "chalk and cheese" is an expression meaning that they are opposites. Enjoyed the rest of the article, too.

    I'd be willing to play with that a little bit if you define what "out-hits their opponent" means. Sheer number of hits? Total bases? Seems like a fun project.

    I avidly await the first team that doesn't blink and lets their QB walk instead of paying him. I think the 49ers might be the first. We are getting to what, $70 million for the next QB contract? For Brock Purdy? This year there has been a lot of buzz about the resurgence of the RB position with Henry, Barkley and Jacobs all being excellent as FA acquisitions, and what Montgomery (RIP) and Gibbs are doing in Detroit.

    Please keep Civale. I will believe Woodruff is back when he is actually back. Maybe not even then. I'll let you know in October. 4374 outs needed in 162 games, give or take. A guy like Civale, who can get 450-500 of them, is incredibly valuable. Cortes, Peralta, Myers, the same. Several hundred more from some other starters, then start up the bullpen shuttle to get the rest of them.

    I see the Padres in 2022 were 22nd in SLG, 8th in OBP. They are an outlier. In the last four years, 12 of the 16 final four teams were in the top seven for slugging. The other four were 10th, 16th and 17th (and none of them were dramatically better in their OBP rank). it doesn’t seem that teams that are low SLG, high OBP, make it far in the playoffs very often.
  23. Underachiever
    Well this article piqued my interest.
  24. Underachiever
    Give the guy a break. It's over 14 years since he killed anybody. How many of us can say the same?

    I would suggest a team of Vince Colemans and a team of Dave Kingman's would both be uniformly awful. No one is suggesting such a binary here. I am asking that the Brewers use their remaining dollars and roster space to find a player or two that has some power. I believe that that will help with the playoffs. The Brewers have the regular season nailed. Let's look toward the playoffs. Last year, among playoff teams, the Brewers were 2nd behind the Dodgers in OBP. They were last in Slugging. They were also last among playoff teams in slugging in 2023. That is where I would look to improve. And if you read page one of the thread, you had two posts by sveumrules and two by wiguy94 and you say that the calls for more power are "reflexive and not backed by data"? Those two guys eat and breathe data.
