  1. How about a Senzel/Tyler Black platoon at 3B?

  4. I was disappointed that Toro didn't get more of a shot last year when we struggled offensively. Maybe he wouldn't have continued his numbers in a bigger role, but now we will never know.
  5. I remember his time in postgame interviews that he seemed to struggle, but maybe there was more to the story. Found this article from Rickie's last year in the league with the Rays. https://www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/sports/southern/when-rickie-says-something-we-listen-former-southern-star-rickie-weeks-a-steadying-influence-for/article_02b758cc-60f5-11e7-926b-2bbe3531855f.html#:~:text=When Cador first met Weeks,Except his mother. From the article, a quote about his work before he was drafted, "When Cador first met Weeks, he noticed a speech impediment, a stutter. Cador knew big things were ahead for Weeks — “lots and lots of interviews’’ — so he quietly arranged for a speech therapist to work with Weeks. No one ever knew." Also, some quotes from Rays personnel that talks to Rickie' ability to talk with other players. “But when Rickie says something, we listen,’’ Rays pitcher Alex Cobb said. “He knows how to act like a pro. We respect him so much. Nobody has to say it. It’s just the truth.’’ “He just has the ability to capture a room,’’ Cobb said. “Not everyone can do that. Some people try and it falls flat. Not him. I think everyone is aware of who he is.’’
  6. I glad to see that the Brewers brass learned from history...Don't wait until the middle of the year to bring in the older, longtime coach to run the show. Kuenn got them to the World Series in '82 taking over in the middle of the season; Murphy will surely finish the deal with being in charge since Day 1. 🙂
  7. Now reporting that Weeks will fill the bench coach role.
  8. What can we expect as "differences" between Murphy and Counsell? For example, will Murphy have the team run more? Sacrifice occasionally?
  9. Does something like this question and answer from the weekend MLBTraderumors chat make sense? Burnes for 3b Coby Mayo (#27), LHP Cade Povich (#11 on Baltimore's top 30), + a flyer. BrewCrew 8:41 What’s a realistic trade offer built around Corbin Burnes for Coby Mayo? One-for-one? One of the teams have to add something? Mark P 8:41 Mayo and a couple of lesser prospects might do it. 8:42 "Lesser," maybe a top 10-15 guy, and then a lottery ticket type in the lower minors. Keep in mind that a player who's ranked 10-15 in Baltimore's system would be higher in almost any other system, since the Orioles are so crazy deep in prospects
  10. What a punch to the gut. Need Corbin and Freddy to shine even brighter.
  11. I say again... now get him a win
  12. I mowed tonight so I'm ready
  13. Big strikeout for Boz. Now finish it
  14. Why not play it like a playoff game and pinch run Perkins?
  15. Got to admit...I resemble a Cubs fan for a moment because I thought his fly ball was gone.
  16. I was starting to think the same thing.
  17. So no matter how well he pitches tonight...Colin Rea doesn't make a postseason roster...right?
  18. I understand the team doesn't like Toro's defensive ability (or lack thereof), but I have shaken my head repeatedly here at the end of the year that he isn't a better pinch hit option off the bench than some other guys we have kept.
  19. Nice relaxing win. It would be fun to make the Cubs lives miserable this weekend to finish things off.
  20. So I know the Brewers have said that if Mitchell makes the post season roster, it will be in a limited role...my question is What would he have to do over these last 4 games to carve out a bigger role for the playoffs?
