    If “uneducated” fans like us can see it, how can Milwaukee’s decision makers not see it?

    Another Murphy “friendly” who should be a 4th OF with Lara up
  3. edfunderburk
    I have zero reservations in suggesting that Lara provides far better at bats than Yelich. Let him play & DH an outfielder.

    How long can a player be in a slump before it is determined that he’s no longer a major league quality hitter?
  5. edfunderburk
    It’s time to be disrespectful to Yelich.

    Murphy is too soft … batting his buddy in the leadoff role even though everyone can see he’s washed. I want the manager to be “friendly” with the players … Murphy chooses to be “friends” with them. That’s a problem. He isn’t objective.

    Sorry, I live in DFW. I’ve only been to Tampa when I was traveling to preach in churches there.

    Yoho is light years better than Kuhnel & Koenig ... hope he stays in Milwaukee throughout the season. I understand our starting pitching is impacted by rest for Miz & a minor (I pray) injury with Harrison, but Bryce Wilson is a "short-term" solution at best.

    Cleveland traded for Matt LaPorta ... Brantley was a "throw in" who just happened to become a great MLB player. LaPorta's father-in-law is a good friend of mine (he pastors a church just north of Tampa). Unfortunately, LaPorta never "hit" a an MLB player, but he was a dynamic HR hitter at Florida when drafted by Milwaukee.

    Spending $22M on Woodruff was not enough “risk” so now we add another $6M to try to replace our savvy veteran. This feels similar to the Rosenthal & Montgomery/Miller trades of previous seasons. Hopefully this one pans out well. Curious to see if Gordon can replace Koenig who looks washed.

    My word … I certainly hope they don’t send the Astros Tayden Hall and/or a Manuel Rodriguez
  12. edfunderburk
    I’d be delighted with another Drohan

    Three years in AAA is concerning
  14. edfunderburk
    Why not give Stallings or Pallone a few starts?
  15. edfunderburk
    Yes, he was great … 10 years ago

    What an odd acquisition. This reminds me of the Jordan Montgomery trade last year. I’m curious if the “other player” was the goal here - but his stats are awful too. McCullers is still on the IL. He had one good start at the beginning of the year but he’s been dreadful ever since. I’m wondering if he’s close to pitching again OR if he will be released soon. Not sure how this benefits Milwaukee this year.

    I think Chourio is a very good but not a great player. He may not reach the super star level that was projected for him. He’s very talented but I haven’t seen growth & progress since he joined the big league team. His stats are consistent but not dynamic. Maybe this is who he will be.

    Both Murphy (health issues) & Yelich (poor performance) need to step aside for a bit rather than coach & play everyday. They’re doing us fans & their team no favors. There are others who could do their jobs well in their absence.
  19. edfunderburk
    This series & especially today irritates me because we lose games - including the lead over Chicago we worked so hard to get, our run differential is impacted, we no longer have the best ERA or fewest runs allowed … all because we decided to rest guys & play as if the games don’t count. Why not push through when staring at a four day break. Makes no sense. Just a complete disaster to close out the first half. For me, this series takes some of the shine off the great season to date. It also reinforces to me that we should not go all in & trade prospects for short term help. There are a few good NL teams that could cause us trouble in the playoffs. We have no chance to beat LA this year. I hope we play hard in the second half, win the division, give it our best shot in the playoffs, & plan for an excellent decade of Brewers baseball once some of our top prospects join the parent team.

    I would stop watching if Weeks takes his place
  21. edfunderburk
    Murphy would be wise to address all his health issues (hip, shoulder, knee, back surgeries), fully recover, & return when he is able to be alert & lead the team. He’s not being brave … rather he’s being foolish & is hurting the team. Everyone is replaceable - including Murphy. I’m confident in one of our coaches to step in should he take a leave of absence.
  22. edfunderburk
    Is this team good enough to “forfeit” a game like today … even this series? What happened to our “win today” approach? Why does a 21-year old SS need to rest before a four day break? This is a terrible way to end a successful first half.
  23. edfunderburk
    Options remaining?
  24. edfunderburk
    No words …
