  1. This game got out of whack as soon as Chacin didn't come out with his best stuff. Hard to blame Chacin, though, I suppose. He's a great #3-4 pitcher in a rotation. He isn't the stopper the Brewers have forced him to be this year because they didn't have anything better. I think that changes next year.
  2. Just horrible ABs in the 8th when they direly need baserunners. From 1-2-3 in the order. Really disappointing, but I guess a zebra doesn't change its stripes.
  3. Come on guys! Let's see one of those Jansen implosions that nearly cost the Dodgers a playoff spot!
  4. Not with what he has shown thus far. I’d say still half a year away minimum. That's all that matters. Can't act like Hiura vs whomever they play at 2b is the difference between Brewers making a postseason or not. If he's available for the postseason, the offense is better for these important games. It'd be a far better acquisition than Scope was. That doesn't change the fact that the guy is a Class A prick. Edit ... I quoted the wrong one. This was about Machado and not booing him anymore.
  5. I personally would love to see if Hader has the chops to make it as a starter. I don't think it happens, though.
  6. Well, one positive we have learned from this postseason is that Brandon Woodruff has stud starter or multi-inning relief ace written all over him. This guy's stuff is electric.
  7. Yep ... need to solve the 2B hole again. And it can't be another free swinger. The need a guy that cares about OBP. Maybe Hiura is that guy at some point, but that point is more than likely not in April.
  8. One would hope so. The thought about next years rotation is really exciting, but in doing so they will severely hurt the incredible bullpen that got them here and gave them so much success in the postseason. I think that is something a lot of people don’t realize. No Burnes, Peralta, Woodruff, etc. super pen. That is what took us from meh to woah. So you find more guys to fill in. Jordan Lyles looked great in limited pen opportunities in September. Maybe he's a guy that flourishes in the pen. Adrian Houser brings very similar style and stuff to what Woodruff brings. Zach Brown will be knocking at the door, and has put up very similar numbers to what Burnes has done. Guerra has looked great in relief. Also, you have your three horses - Knebel, Hader and Jeffress - locked in for next year. Plus there is just too many starting pitching options for the spots available. There it going to be a ton of talent available next year on this pitching staff.
  9. Ha! Sit down Keke! Kratz certainly isn't a world beater offensively, but he's had some nice, timely hits this year. He also plays very good defense, and hit blocking ability and arm defy logic for a 38-year-old.
  10. He's older and plays a less valuable defensive position than Santana, and they couldn't find a buyer for him last year. Maybe he's thrown in on a package deal, but I don't think you are going to see any major value for him alone.
  11. I hope you are right and this isn't a big season to remember. The only way that happens if if this team makes multiple playoff appearances and World Series appearances in the next 5-6 years. If that doesn't happen, I sure as heck am going to remember this as a great season regardless of what happens tonight. This season has been the most fun I've even had watching this team.
  12. This! Just don’t get it If you have a LOOGY, you bring him in to face a tough lefty hitter. Now, if your LOOGY sucks ...
  13. Well, this isn't looking too hot. JJ better bear down pretty quick. K and a DP grounder would do.
