  1. Logging in, I'm assumed this was the yearly April Fool's Day thread.
  2. Record: 85 - 77 Division: 2nd behind Reds All-Stars: Braun, Gallardo Disappointments: Fiers Surprises: Gomez (leads the league in SBs), Lohse (not as good as last year, but keeps the people with pitchforks at bay) World Series: Reds and Tigers
  3. With Rogers and Green going on the 15-day DL (still on 40-man), how does Yuni fit into the 40-man limit? Safe to assume a bench to start the season of: Schafer Maldonado Yuni Davis with 13 pitchers?
  4. "This thread is great entertainment. I've said I wouldn't have done it, because of the draft implications, and I wouldn't have, but some of you guys are losing your minds. I can see a negative reaction to just about any transaction, but this is no catastrophe, it's just not a move I would have made. The contract is not a killer, baseball economics will never make sense in any of our worlds, but the team can handle this move financially, and there is NO WAY Kyle Lohse is not an upgrade for this team. NONE, ZERO. The Suppan signing was a mess, and the Wolf signing was one year too many, for those of you who keep saying neither of those moves worked, Mr Wolf helped this team for two seasons, and had a lousy season at the end. You never know, Lohse could blow his arm out tomorrow, but he could also be the best of the three moves, by a long shot. If any of you really won't root for Lohse as a Brewer, I'll never understand that. He's on the home team, and he'll be trying to help them win, what's the alternative...to root for a loss?" splitter Perfectly said. He is now a Brewer (or about to be), so I will now root for him
  5. As a huge Gomez fan/apologist, I am ecstatic about this deal. As my wife just said, "At least your jersey t-shirt will be good for awhile longer." Guess she is still a little bitter since she decided to get a "Gamel" one 3 years ago.
  6. Glad to hear everyone had fun; disappointed that we couldn't make it this year. Consolation is that our girls came through with a regional championship. (Even better news is sectionals are at neutral site so less work for me and can now enjoy the games a little more )
  7. If the seeding plays out, we will be hosting a girls' basketball regional final on Saturday March 2nd, so my wife and I will be unable to attend. (hope I didn't jinx the girls )
  8. Aoki Weeks Braun Ramirez Lucroy Gomez Gamel Segura Couple of points: 1. Wonder if RR will put Aoki in the 2nd spot behind Weeks so he has "a guy to move Rickie over" (bunt, hit&run, etc.) 2. I'm expecting Gomez to have a big contract year. Like him in front of the left-handed Gamel for more protection on steal attempts and/or the ability to score from 1st on Mat's doubles. 3. Fingers crossed that Lucroy can continue offense from last year so the 5 spot isn't a black hole.
  9. We are feeling the same way. Was planning to head to Milwaukee tonight, spend the night and then off to On Deck for the day tomorrow. No definite decision made yet, but not excited about driving home in "freezing rain" & "wintry mix".
  10. I emailed my ticket rep today and was told that information regarding ordering extra tickets (including opening day) is being sent to 20-game-holders either today or tomorrow.
  11. My wife and I have attended the last few years and have always had a great time. Depending on the date, we would try to make the trip from SW Wisconsin to attend again this winter.
  12. Will always be one of my all-time favorites for his pitching and more importantly for his "baaaa" to my young son when Sam mis-pronounced his last name. And thus a screen name was born.
  13. Tough when my 14-yr-old son asks before the at bat, "Do you think Ransom can come up with a big hit?" and I just shake my head. Got to go re-read the optimism thread.
  14. News on a corresponding move?
  15. Due to the swear filter, I'll just say "You've got to be kidding"
  16. So can we now add "baseball reporter/scoopster to the list of Bill Hall's talents? Infielder Outfielder Soap opera actor baseball reporter Can Bill Hall pitch?
  17. OldSchool I be interested in both of your Nyjer's (tough now that I try to get one for my collection and one for my son's as well) for one Ramirez and one Uecker.
  18. With Gomez against a right-hander again and with the way the year has gone so far...I can't help but wonder if Morgan has some sort of injury that we haven't heard about yet. (or maybe he is being traded since he is redundant to Aoki )
  19. Only surprised it was Soriano instead of waiting for Castro to come up later.
