  1. I don't think anyone would be on this roster if the critics had their way.
  2. Kinda hoping they just leave Kirby out there to wear one for the next 5 innings
  3. Prince Fielder was always listed at 5'11", but I'd be surprised if he was any taller than 5'9". He also had short arms, and was obviously a bit rotund. And while he was never considered a terrific 1B defensively, he wasn't really a liability, either.
  4. For #31, we have the King of 3TO, Russell (The Muscle) Branyan
  5. Yesterday was Drohan's day to throw, so instead of throwing in the pen, they had him throw a couple innings, saving the pen and wear and tear on Harrison's arm. He's still slated to start Sunday.
  6. Plus I would imagine that either Pratt or Made are considered the 3B of the near future, eliminating another potential spot for Abrams.
  7. I haven't liked the White Sox since the Terry Bevington days. They have done absolutely nothing to change that stance the last couple nights.
  8. For #32, we have the epitome of what you think of as an all-or-nothing power-hitting 1B ... Mr. John Jaha
  9. Well, they went 3-4, which by all accounts I think most would take. Much better than 0-7, while giving up the division lead to the Cubs that multiple people predicted in the IGTs.
  10. Where did I say that wasn't possible? I think we are closer to agreeing that you probably think. My ONLY point was to point out the irony (perhaps in a way that had a twinge too much snark) of the OP's post mentioning Skubal, while ignoring the starter who the team actually acquired and who has been better than Skubal through two starts.
  11. The post was more directed at the fact that the OP brought up Romero (currently on the IL) and Senzatela (who struggled), but ignored May (who has been excellent in two starts since being acquired). Could the Brewers have used another bat? Yes. Was there any bats dealt at the deadline who would have made a difference in this lineup? Perhaps, but I'm kinda leaning no. But to ridicule the team for the moves they made as a whole, without even mentioning one which has worked out very well so far, comes off as somewhat curious.
  12. May literally pitched into the 8th yesterday.
  13. I wonder if Dodgers fans were looking at those same Wild Card standings last week?
  14. Imagine coming up with this line on the day that Dustin May throws an absolute gem ...
  15. Brewers need to do SOMETHING to spark this offense. At this point it's reaching "definition of insanity" levels. I don't know if I've ever seen the offense as a whole just go into a prolonged slump like this. Yet we just keep running the same group out there.
  16. Happy to see Joey back, but color me a little surprised that its Ortiz at 3B and Hamilton at SS.
  17. After watching Bunty and Bunty Jr. last night, along with Turang possibly being hurt, I'm on board with bringing up a kid or two. Yes, it may hamstring roster manipulation in the future, but as they have proven with moves like shuffling Bryse Wilson on and off the roster, they are pretty good at staying ahead of that. I think they are also at the point of having to tell Joey Ortiz to get his butt out to SS, or hit the IL.
  18. Sprained thumb apparently. Not sure how and when it happened. He played the whole game.
  19. My expectations were low, but this Bae guy sucks. I think I'm at the point of changing my tune and want to see one of the young guys brought up, roster flexibility be damned.
  20. Surfing through an IGT is akin to shopping at Walmart at 2 a.m. Yes, you will eventually find what you are looking for, but to get there, you're going to have to push through a few drunks, a handful of people in pajamas and fuzzy slippers, an old guy yelling at a teenage entry-level employee because his favorite brand of Metamucil was moved, and an overweight middle-aged dude riding a handicap scooter around with a dog inexplicably in the basket.
  21. Probably has more to do with Wilken currently hitting below the Uecker line, and Jett hitting the injured list again.
