With the Brewers sitting in first place with a 4.5 game lead, the best record in the NL, and tied for the third-best record in baseball, I just got a very good laugh reading through some of the comments that were made in the Alex Cobb signing thread --- viewtopic.php?f=63&t=36521&hilit=cobb "Not happy. 17aav is low compared to Arrieta. I think he's worth it and we scrooged this one." "Lynn and Cobb look to be some serious bargains. I’d love to know what happened inside our FO after the Cain Yelich deals. Going into a promising season with our OF/1B and that rotation seems to be a real disconnect." "We can say what we want but on the surface, imo, we really screwed up the pitching moves (or lack of) this offseason." "sure glad Stearns dealt the high end of the prospect pool to help an already above average part of the big league club and didn't bother helping out the weakest part of the team. awesome." "I’m not seeing smart at all here. On paper, this is a very bad rotation. That’s why they play the games of course but this sure looks like unfinished business and not a smart plan at all." "Lots of teams have question marks in the rotation." -- "Yes, they are called non-contenders." "This is a fringe playoff team as is. If things go a fairly positive playoffs, if things go fairly negative 500. You add cobb you change that narrative to... this is a playoff team"
