    They are very thin at tackle as well. All indications are that Bahk is gone after this year, and Yosh is an UFA. Maybe one of the developmental guys works out, but I'd like to see more of a sure thing. I know they have had luck with mid-round guys in the past, but if one of those blue-chippers is there, they have to consider it.

    Drafting a WR in the 1st round three days after trading your franchise cornerstone QB would be either simply delicious irony, or a tremendous troll job by Gute on the armchair GM porton of this fanbase.
  3. Ron Robinsons Beard
    If it gets to that point, their season has already turned into a dumpster fire. But knowing the Jets media and fanbase, that is a topic that will most definitely come up.

    I think it's important to note that it's the Patriots who the Packers jumped going from #15 to #13. The Patriots are a well-run organization, and seem to more often than not have many of the same draft "needs" that the Packers typically do year-to-year. And right now, the Patriots biggest draft needs are WR at tackle ... two spots where it can be assumed the Packers are also looking at with #13. If a WR like Jaxon Smith-Njigba or a tackle like Paris Johnson, Broderick Jones or Peter Skoronski are there, they could very well be the pick. Bahktiari is likely gone after this year.

    Best case scenario for the Packers is for Rodgers to basically be an iron man (which wouldn't be surprising), but also show his age and have the team hovering around .500. After he breaks that 65% threshold, lose the rest. Bench him, I don't care. Chances are good that the Jets are solid, and that pick would be in the 20s. But there is also a pretty strong chance that it's in the teens. Pretty outside shot of it being a top 10 pick, because if the Jets are playing that poorly, they'll bench Rodgers so they don't lose a high 1st.

    Guess we better hope that this is the "glass is half empty" viewpoint, then. Burnes and Freddy are a pretty great 1-2 punch at the top. Lauer (despite not at mid-season velo levels quite yet) has been good. Miley has been good. Rea (against all odds) has been serviceable. Yes, Houser is injury prone, but right now he's your 5-6th starter, even with Woody out for a while. I agree that the team cannot afford more injuries to their starters -- especially Burnes and Peralta. They lost a near ace-level pitcher in Woody two starts into the year. There are only a handful of teams that have the starting depth to be able to handle a blow like that and still remain competitive. It is very fortunate that, at least on paper, the Brewers are one of those teams.

    They are 15-7 ... with Burnes pitching lackluster by his standards, but still not terribly. They'll be OK IMO.

    clancy has been on the Suter bandwagon even since the guy was drafted. It is very nice that Suter ended up defying his draft pedigree and making an impact for the Brewers, but at the same time, clancy has never stopped patting himself on the back for essentially "predicting" Suter's success. Case in point ... this article.

    Hiura has destroyed AAA pitching every time they've sent him down over the last 3 years. The fact that he's destroying AAA pitching once again shouldn't surprise anyone. For him to get back to the majors, he's going to have to prove that he's made significant changes to the approach that had him striking out at a 40+% clip last season. It also wouldn't hurt if he devoted more time to making himself into a solid defensive option somewhere on the diamond. It is encouraging to see him getting time in the corner OF, and to see him making significant game-saving type plays out there. If he proves that he can play in the field and not be a terrible liability, and he continues to rake while reducing the swing-and-miss tendencies he's developed over the last few years, there's a chance we may see him in a Brewer uniform again. If anything, the production may convince another team to give up something in a trade to take a chance on him.

    Perkins it is ...
  11. Ron Robinsons Beard
    I'd be extremely surprised if Frelick gets the call, especially since Perkins is hitting better, is probably a better defensive CF, and is already on the 40-man.
  12. Ron Robinsons Beard
    *right now I have no doubt that the Cardinals will be in the thick of things. But that doesn't mean that I'm not enjoying the predictions that their starting rotation would be terrible coming true. They'll probably eventually find some no-name starter in the minors to come in and reel off 15 wins with a sub-3 ERA, and likely con some poorly-run team into handing over a top starter for peanuts at the deadline. It seemingly happens every year.
  13. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Only cause the Reds are just a smidge more of a dumpster fire than the Cards right now.
  14. Ron Robinsons Beard
    At least Junk getting a spot start had some intrigue. Rea? Yuck. He's very Jason Alexander-ish.
  15. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Two Ks. One well-struck ball that skirted the foul line. Tough crowd.
  16. Ron Robinsons Beard
    After all the consternation surrounding Keston last year, the whole concept of "reverse splits" has reached a pretty high level of nauseating IMO. For gosh sake, stop employing these guys if you are going to platoon.
  17. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Hold up obviously isn't on Rodgers. I firmly believe that the Packers have attached a value to Rodgers, though, and are refusing to come off of it. As is their right. It's a little bit of a game of chicken right now. Some speculation out there of what the return package may look like, but nothing concrete. I give both teams credit for keeping most leaks under wraps.
  18. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Ehh ... bottom of the 40-man reliever roster churn. Guess you never know when one of these guys might find it and have a stretch of success.
  19. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Why? Lauer is a better pitcher than Montgomery, both historically and eye-test wise.
  20. Ron Robinsons Beard
    I have absolutely no doubt that they will figure it out, some no-name middle infielder named Skippy McGillicuddyson will matriculate out of thin air to hit .380 for them the 2nd half of the season, they'll con some team into handing them an ace and a closer at the deadline for a couple A-ball rejects, and they'll be in the hunt again come September. Because Cardinals.
  21. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Frat bro-looking dude looks like he spends all of his off-time on the leg press machine. That might have something to do with it.
  22. Ron Robinsons Beard
    My kinda team ...
  23. Ron Robinsons Beard
    We got on their ace last night. I'm sure their hitters were amped up to return the favor today.
  24. Ron Robinsons Beard
    There's another term for that - narcissist
  25. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Not super enthused about Winker facing a lefty, but options are limited.
