    So you are ready to hand the division to the Cubs, despite a 3 game lead with 25 to play? The Brewers had a huge hot streak that ended roughly a week ago. The Cubs are essentially on a heater right now. It's the ebb and flow of late-season baseball. The Brewers would probably have to go ice cold to not at least be neck-and-neck with the Cubs going into the final week.

    I always thought that Jerry Reuss looked like that kindly great uncle that would slip you $10 to go buy candy after your parents warned him not to.

    They never filled the spot opened by DFA'ing Souza.
  4. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Boy if Adames can finally find some consistency as we head into the final stretch of the season, watch out.
  5. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Yeah, good points. I admit to not following the Cubs too closely up until a few weeks ago. Money definitely helped speed up the rebuild.

    He was past his prime, but watching this guy play for the Brewers, even if it was for only one season, was pretty cool.
  8. Ron Robinsons Beard
    The fact that the Cubs have been able to rebuild so quickly into a contender makes me a little mad. I mean, money helps obviously, but anyone could have signed Bellinger for the contract he got. Stroman was the only real huge contract they had this offseason, and he's been hurt. They are basically doing this with spare parts, reclamation projects, and both veterans and young nobody-types who are having career years.

    You are all forgetting about the best #23 in Brewers history ...
  10. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Grichuk went unclaimed. Color me surprised.
  11. Ron Robinsons Beard
    He probably would have taken Taylor's spot. Maybe Weimer's. They must really value Weimer's defense.
  12. Ron Robinsons Beard
    I'd much rather see Black or Gasser than Josh Donaldson.
  13. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Grichuk seems like a Brewers-type move. Solid OF defender at all 3 positions. Decent power. Destroys lefties, which is one of this team's biggest weaknesses.
  14. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Apparently those guys can continue to play while on waivers.
  15. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Yes, as long as they are on the 40-man roster before Sept. 1.
  16. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Looks like Emanuel Wilson has made it ... at least for now. #3 HB is a pretty tenuous spot.
  17. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Orzech has 50 NFL games under his belt, and was signed as an unrestricted free agent. He is no longer subject to waivers.
  18. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Adames is too easy ... so I present Jordan Zimmermann
  19. Ron Robinsons Beard
    The Brewers were never going to sign Hader to a long-term deal. That's just reality. Not only do they typically not invest huge dollars in the pen, they had a ready-made replacement in Devin Williams ready to go. And when Williams gets too expensive, they'll deal him and have a kid like Uribe ready to go. Overall they've done good on a player who was was never going to be a long term asset.

    Almost every team has a Wilson-type who got a lot of preseason carries. Its a devalued position. If they want to sign him to the practice squad, I doubt many teams will be lining up to challenge them. I think Taylor makes it because he's a core special teamer.
  21. Ron Robinsons Beard
    I'm not against giving it a shot. I mean, what could it hurt? I guess I just wouldn't expect much of an improvement over what we're getting out of the DH spot. I fully expect Keston to be playing somewhere else next year. Honestly, I'm surprised he's even still Brewer property. It's become pretty obvious that they no longer see him as part of the future.

    Robert Brooks started all 16 regular season games opposite Sharpe in 1994. He was drafted in 1992, so he actually played 3 years with Sharpe. He didn't start until the 1994 season, though, when he caught 58 balls for 648 yards that season as the #2 receiver. Antonio Freeman was the receiver that completely missed Sharpe. He was drafted in 1995 after Sharpe was forced to medically retire in '94.
  23. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Kinda happy they stuck with Adames through his prolonged slump instead of optioning him now.
  24. Ron Robinsons Beard
    It's three previous seasons where, at his best, he was BARELY above replacement level with the bat, while adding negative value defensively. That's probably why.
  25. Ron Robinsons Beard
    I have become a strong believer over the years in the Cardinals' late-season magic juju pixie dust that allows them to suddenly go from mediocre to the '27 Yankees this time of year, so there is still a little cautiousness in my head. But man that team looks bad, and has all year. They simply don't have the pitching to go on any sort of sustained run.
