  1. The owner of the website brought up the issue. I would say that makes it fair game to discuss.
  2. This. I chuckle when fans (not necessarily Brewers fans) gleefully write that their team can trade a starting pitcher or two because they have a surplus. Pitchers get injured so often these days you need 7 or more quality starters to get through a season (assuming you have playoff aspirations).
  3. Pitchers don't wait until Spring Training to begin their throwing program.
  4. Agreed. I have no interest in walking around downtown Milwaukee. I worked down there for 9 years (which ended in 2015) and I'd be happy to never return. My preferred pre-game activity is tailgating--not window shopping or dodging gunfire. It's cheap, fun, and delicious and the Brewers parking lot set up is great for that. For in-park food I carry in peanuts and water.
  5. That's funny, because I trust him the least. And he can be a thin-skinned ****** in the comment section at The Athletic.
  6. I take it from that Stearns didn't want the job.

  8. It's obvious he wants to leave. Why pay the guy to do basically nothing? Just let him go.

  10. In 2022 his velocity dropped noticeably and his walks went way up. Plus he's a turd of a person and he quit on his team at the end of last year. I'd say the Royals more likely than not just wasted $3.75 million, regardless of whether the deal was lower than expected. I'm very happy to have the Brewers not sign this chump.
  11. The guy was non-tendered by a team that won 69 games last season. I find it hard to get excited about that kind of player...
  12. At least they've won a World Series in the last 50 years. Something that obviously can't be said about the Brewers. We celebrate a World Series losing team...
  13. I wish him well. And I will note the Brewers paid him $9,125,000 to produce 0.1 WAR over 3 seasons.
  14. Picking up Bauer does not seem like something MA would do.
  15. Not in a million years.
  16. It's nice of the Red Sox to save a little face with this deal. But a team with those resources allowing a home grown Mookie Betts and Xander Boegarts to leave has to be maddening to the fans. I would be enraged.
  17. Put him in the pitching lab and Cy Young here we come!
  18. At this point are there any teams that don't have a pitching lab?
  19. The Dodgers will definitely release him before January 6th (the day he has to be put back on the 40 man roster). I don't see any other team bringing him in. At least not this year, and probably not ever. The guy is toxic and it goes beyond the specific subject of his suspension.
  20. Per MLBTradeRumors.com That's how they would do it. 12 year deal with opt out for the Mets. If you're hung up on my use of the word "guaranteed" then remove the word.
  21. I saw a recent article that suggested Yelich to the Dodgers. They could use a leftfielder and they have the financial ability to take on the contract.
  22. It would be insanely idiotic for them to play that game if they knew his medicals would flunk him.
  23. I suspect Correa's deal will be amended to lop off 2-3 years if he misses x number of games with a lower leg injury. I think the deal will still get done and for more than 8 years. The Twins offered him a 10 year deal and they knew his medicals intimately. But if teams really back off the long term deals I see the Dodgers swooping in with a high AAV 3-4 year deal. Now saddled with Trevor Bauer's $22 million salary hit for 2023 I think they will abandon their idea of staying under the luxury tax to reset their rate. They are only $1 million under right now.
  24. There were people who wanted him back but I don't think anyone wanted him at the price the Reds paid. I think most everyone knew that was a bad contract from the jump.
  25. Does he own over 50%? That's generally all it takes to make your own decisions.
