Jacob Misiorowski gets the call to the show!!!
SeaBass replied to Jastro's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I am so tired already of people commenting, just on the internet in general, about Misiorowski eventually getting hurt when they're clearly talking about his arm. As far as I've seen his near misses with injury have been when he rolled his ankle on the mound in his debut and yesterday in the first inning where his landing foot slipped a little and it looked like his knee hyperextended a tad bit. I'm just rooting for the guy to keep standing upright at this point. -
Jacob Misiorowski gets the call to the show!!!
SeaBass replied to Jastro's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I think it's pretty hard to justify a rookie with about a month of service time being awarded an all star spot. Which is what Misiorowski will be at when July 15 rolls around. Last season Skenes was called up in early May. That made it easier to award him a spot with how much he dominated. Misiorowski just made his debut June 12th. MLB has been here time and time again with rookies making incredible debuts in a short time and more often than not they don't make it. Yasiel Puig and Elly De La Cruz had a ton of hype behind them and didn't make it despite a lot of national talk about how they should. And those guys played every day unlike a starting pitcher. Puig ended up only making one career appearance in the ASG, De La Cruz looks like he'll be an annual participant for the near future at least. I'm ok with Misiorowski just being a rookie this season, I don't think he needs an all star game appearance to validate anything. Next year is soon enough. -
Imagine the Twins giving up on Byron Buxton because he's hurt all the time... Not saying Mitchell is as good as him but he's still a good player. You can deal with injuries to players that have a positive performance when they're healthy. He's not a starting pitcher that you're relying on to be your ace. The team can cover for him while he's out and make room for him when he's healthy. It's not that difficult.

I didn't see the game live but I watched the YouTube highlights and they spent a good amount of time on the "bat drama". I thought it was a little over the top to kick the guy out and was glad when he returned but I do see the side of the Cubs not wanting fans to put themselves at risk of injury for climbing the net. I agree also that it was cool that Sal gave the guy a bat. I thought while watching the highlights that it was something Sal would do and it's cool to hear that he did. Ok, I'm back to hating all things Cubs again. I blacked out there for a moment. 😂

I don't have an issue with you wanting to explore upgrades at SS. I just don't view Edwards as a realistic target. He's a good player, I'm not saying you're wrong to like him. My opinion is that the price to trade for Edwards right now would make the Brewers choose to wait for Made or Pratt instead.
-
Sure but back to my first point, the Marlins aren't very likely to trade the guy unless it's part of a big deal. Marlins are a last place team, they don't need to push for the playoffs. Edwards doesn't hit arbitration until 2027, he's is exactly the type of guy the Marlins want to hold on to. Let's say they think about trading him with a year of control left. That's what, 2029? There's your 3 or 4 years. Like I said, they could just wait for Made or Pratt. Or he's part of a trade package to get a front of the rotation type starter.
-
Yes and I'm sure if the Brewers wanted to offer Jacob Misiorowski maybe they could convince the Marlins to trade him. Or they could just wait for Jesus Made.
-
If memory serves the Brewers were strongly considering moving him to SS this year. Then in spring training he developed shoulder soreness which Murphy surmised was due to the longer throws from SS. I don't think the Brewers doubt he can be a gold glove SS they just didn't want to chance injury to an important player for them.
-
Mookie Betts has won 6 gold gloves playing in the OF and then in 2023 and 2024 the Dodgers moved him to play significant time at 2B and SS. This year the only position he's played is SS. But I guess that doesn't count because he didn't win his gold gloves at 2B? That's such a ridiculous condition to form an opinion around.

I typed a great many words but after I typed it all out I found I could summarize my thoughts in just one sentence. The fact you feel Willy Adames deserves to be booed says a lot more about your character than it does about his. While you're booing just remember, Willy Adames was a member of this organization for just three and a half seasons. Wasn't drafted here, wasn't a minor league prospect here, never signed a contract here. I'm not counting any arbitration agreements because ultimately those are formalities unless a player wants to gamble against odds that are stacked against him. End of the day he's being told what he'll be paid, it's not up to him. And none of that was his fault. He never had control of his own destiny until this offseason at the age of 29 and the Brewers didn't make him an offer, didn't even ask him what he was looking for in a contract. He wanted them to, they just didn't. I guess I couldn't help myself, I typed more anyway.

I wasn't posting that to be "right" on the internet but you mentioned you hadn't seen it in a while and I had this vision in my head of you wanting to see it again and starting to watch Crimson Tide and wondering when Sean Connery was going to show up LOL. Not that it would be a bad thing to watch Crimson Tide again, it's a great movie too.
-
You must mean The Hunt for Red October because Sean Connery isn't in Crimson Tide, that one stars Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman.
-
"What has Gute done this offseason that even counts as what you're suggesting?" You mean signing someone that can be called a solid contributor? I mean, dang, what's your definition of that anyway? Future Hall of Famer apparently. You're likely right, Hobbs is not giving people the impression he'll be a HoFer. Why is that your floor for acceptable roster construction? Reggie White and Julius Peppers. Cool. So yeah I'm still really super confused.
-
It sure seems to me some people on this board are all about the Packers needing to sign some huge FA every offseason or they're trash. Feel like nobody has been paying attention to how the Packers have operated for oh, the last 30+ years. They signed Reggie White in free agency. That happened one time, in like 1993. Where are these grand expectations of free agency daydreaming are coming from? For the longest time people griped about Ted Thompson's non-activity in free agency and saying things along the lines of, "He doesn't have to sign the BEST guys out there, just add some solid pieces that can contribute." Now Brian Gutekunst is doing that and we've graduated to, "Nope! Not good enough!" LOL

It was, of course, 100% an April Fools joke.

I'm not so good with the jumping so I underhand toss my Pet Rock at some squares.

Respectfully, I see both sides of this coin. I think most regular posters here know that you share links with useful information about the Brewers. But I also think that empty posts with only a link are... lacking. Even a quick sentence to provide some context would be enough I'd think. Something like, "Hey I found this site with pictures of cute bunnies if anyone is interested." Not everyone might want to see cute bunnies so they know not to click the link (LOL). Now please enjoy this picture of a Kung Fu bunny.

Someone started the April fools joke too early
SeaBass replied to young guns's topic in Brewer Fanatic Issues & Suggestions
Started too early, stayed too late. My kind of houseguest. -
Can you imagine if it was the Cubs logo on the Milwaukee Brewers Talk forum instead?

SeaBass replied to young guns's topic in Brewer Fanatic Issues & Suggestions
We don't know if it was early, maybe one of the mods lives in Iceland. -
This is the first thing I noticed hopping on the site this morning. Somebody's trolling. April fools day I guess. But seriously, this one is not funny

Yankee's using new style torpedo bat this year.
SeaBass replied to Brian's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
If it's legal I have zero issue with it. Fair game for everyone. As with everything the league will adjust. -
Yeah partial weeks at the beginning (or end) of the year and before & after the all star break typically get tacked on during the fantasy schedule. The roster lock thing beginning on Monday feels like a rule specific to your league. My league allows waiver adds at any time but we only get 5 roster moves per week. EDIT: Rereading this I would assume this past Monday is also counting as a locked roster date. Again, feels like a league specific thing. Maybe the system is counting Monday the 31st as the transaction day so you wouldn't have access until the next day?
-
I think it closed when we traded Jrue instead of Khris.
-
ADP is a good blueprint but it's totally fair to pick guys "earlier" if you like them. The trick is to try to hold off as long as you dare so that you aren't taking them too early lol.
