    Wowzers. I hate that my first thought was that I hope the Bucks don't get Aaron Rodgers-ed. But it's not like injuries haven't been happening to Giannis, Khris or Jrue anyway.

    If not this year next year for sure.

    Love watching that run differential grow.

    You don't throw money at a manager in the same way you throw money at star players. Bruce Bochy is rumored to be the highest paid manager in MLB at around $6M/year. Counsell is rumored to be currently making $3.5M/year. In what world does his salary negotiations get so crazy the Brewers can't come close? So Counsell is in line for a nice pay increase. Even if he goes to New York for a little extra that for some reason Attanasio doesn't offer him, NY has higher income taxes and a higher cost of living compared to Wisconsin. Plus the hassle of moving. We know his immediate family lives in WI but what about other family? If the people he prefers to spend his time around are here and he likes managing for his hometown Brewers it seems like a long shot that he'll leave. IMO if he chooses to go to New York, or elsewhere, it's because there's something going on between him and the FO or Attanasio himself that makes him want to cut bait.

    Not really seeking advice but one guy in my league had both Rodgers and Chubb on his team this year. I wonder how his team will look after week 3...

    Ahh the good ol' days when $3M per year was a nigh unthinkable amount of money to pay a ball player.

    A hot dog at Dairy Queen is $3.29. A&W is $3.59. Culver's sells a corn dog for $3.49. I think your $4 price is just fine and I'd wager you serve a better quality hot dog than those places. Unless you're just serving a basic Oscar Mayer hot dog, then it's a rip off LOL.

    Keston who? Mark Canha with an all time moment! Wooo!

    The Jets won 5 of their 7 games against backup QBs and their defense was the healthiest unit in football. These are things you can't really count on to happen again in a new season added on top of a punishing schedule. One of their defensive starters is already out for the season (Chuck Clark/ACL) and EDGE Carl Lawson was out for the Bills game. Does that mean they can't have a winning year? Of course not. But even what they did last season, with that great defense, wasn't as great as it looks at face value. They need their offense to score more points which is the same problem they had last year. They've lucked into one win with an OT punt return TD. Check that one off the list of reasonably repeatable occurrences.

    Fair enough, I just felt like the initial jumping on that poster was a little eyebrow raising.
  14. SeaBass
    Patently untrue and also qualified with an "I don't have the data" statement. Whew, it's so hard to tolerate these liars and their deliberately misleading statements.

    And spending a 4th round pick for him... I glommed onto that little detail immediately.
  16. SeaBass
    No "I told you so's" from me. I know many have been frustrated with Rowdy and it makes sense. Glad he came through!
  17. SeaBass
    I'm not. If you wish to ignore the actual posts in the conversation that's your prerogative but there is a post where the person I was responding to continued to speak as if he was talking about Rowdy since his return before the peanut gallery jumped in to tell me it's about more than that.
  18. SeaBass
    Literally 2 posts above that: Context matters.

    0-4 with 3 walks in 2 games since missing nearly 2 months and complaining he has a "sub .500 OPS" is more than a little over dramatic for my tastes. And that's all I'm going to say about it.
  20. SeaBass
    7 PA, how many hits would it take? 9? 17?
  21. SeaBass
    We are? He's been back for two games! 7 PA, 3 BB and an RBI. Sheesh.

    What is it about the other call ups/acquisitions that suggests they did not deserve their time? I'm already on record saying I'd have been fine with Hiura replacing Winker but that doesn't mean the moves the Brewers made instead are not without merit.
  23. SeaBass
    Hiura's 2023 MLB plate appearances - 0 Canha's 2023 MLB plate appearances - 376
  24. SeaBass
    I think it's obvious. Canha draws walks, Hiura doesn't. Canha has a career OBP just shy of .350. Had a 122 OPS+ last season and had a 101 OPS+ with the Mets before the trade this season. If he can get back to that 100-ish number with the Brewers even better, he's not that far off in a small sample. I don't hate Hiura, I was all for using him to replace Winker much earlier on, I think he just got injured at the exact wrong time, a time when I think they may have finally have given him his chance. But I also don't think that the call ups the Brewers have made even before the trades are definitively wrong. If this thread has a flaw, and I'm on the side that believes it does, it's that folks arguing for Hiura aren't acknowledging the logic in some of those other moves. I understand wanting your guy, there are logical arguments to support Hiura, I just think it's evolved into a more emotional mindset as time has gone on.

    Meanwhile, the Brewers are 9-3 in their last 12 games, have scored 6 or more runs in their last 5 games, swept 3 of 4 series and are 13 games over .500. I don't understand the angst. Since the AS break the Brewers have one 4 game losing streak (3 of those against the Braves) and one 3 game losing streak against the Dodgers. Beyond that the Brewers haven't lost back to back games since July 4th and 5th. None of this screams, "We need Keston Hiura stat!"
