    Exactly. Double header or not, you should be able to get through it without him having to start. Brinson could have caught that. Broxton likely does catch it. As long as Franklin is on the roster, CC continues to use him all the time like he's good. He's almost always the first PH off the bench. Just get rid of him and be done with it already. And I also agree, the Brewers seem to be trending downward and not playing good baseball. Today certainly felt like a sweep. Certainly hope I'm wrong.

    This is certainly beating a dead horse again, but it feels like we say this every game. The offense is just flat out horrible at hitting sac flies to score a run. Also seems like we haven't gotten a hit with RISP in forever. I'm sure it's not that bad, but it certainly feels like it is. Just can't let prime scoring chances slip away consistently, especially when you don't even have to get a hit to score. And part two, can we PLEASE get rid of Franklin already. He's batting .183. Is pretty awful in LF. There's simply no reason for him to be on the roster. And as I'm typing this, a bunch of hits on 1-2 counts. That's stellar. Why does a 2-0 game feel so insurmountable against the Cardinals?? Make that 3-0. Couple of balls in the right spot in this inning but they all count. Almost knew this was coming after we fail to score with bases loaded and only 1 out.

    I'm going to assume you're correct and it's a money saving move. Must have an idea of what it'll take to get him. Otherwise, this one doesn't seem to make a ton of sense.
  4. brwrsfan
    This is the first one that's puzzling to me. He's not a senior, so it's not necessarily a money saving move. But there doesn't seem to be much projection to him. Awfully small too.
  5. brwrsfan
    Enlow and Heatherly the first two to get picked today.
  6. brwrsfan
    Great to hear everything is fine. That was scary. The lineup certainly missed him. Did we make another roster move? I didn't see it...unfortunately it wasn't Franklin, I see he is in the lineup today.
  7. brwrsfan
    Scahill wasn't the guy I would have DFA'd first, but he's been pretty awful. I really, really think they also need to bring up Wang and get rid of basically anyone. We need another lefty out there. Wang is destroying them in AAA.

    So now that the picks are over for today...anyone I should hope for tomorrow? Seen some people wanting to take a shot with Tristan Beck, looks like he could maybe be there for our pick. Anyone else? Anyone sitting there that one of you really want??
  9. brwrsfan
    For those that know better than I do....thoughts on this one? Big kid, 6'6. Seems to throw hard. Difficulty repeating his arm slot.
  10. brwrsfan
    Well Beck and Carlson there with just 1 pick to go. Could we take one here??
  11. brwrsfan
    You can still save money with some later picks too - take some college seniors that have no real leverage. Fairly sure we did this with Allemand recently. You wouldn't save a ton necessarily, but you could certainly get some back if you needed to.
  12. brwrsfan
    They almost certainly knew what it would cost to sign him or they wouldn't take him with the comp pick (I think, not sure, but you don't get those back for not signing the guy right??). Still got pick 46 coming, and several pitchers I think a lot of us would like. Could Carlson get there??
  13. brwrsfan
    What's crazy is that that quote is like 13-14 years old...and still hilarious.

    Until Villar really starts hitting again, I can't see him at the top. For the short term, I like Brinson leading off and Sogard batting second. If Villar was hitting, I'd love him and Brinson one/two but that's not happening yet. Broxton shouldn't be anywhere near the top, or in it at all. I agree with you though, without Braun and Shaw, the lineup just isn't the same. We really need them back - no idea when that's happening on either. Haven't heard a peep about Shaw, which is scary given the situation. For the time being, Thames is exactly where he should be. I think when everybody is healthy, I'd rather him bat 5th, behind Shaw, but I'm ok if it's second as well. Thames seems to be trying to do too much with the other guys out and it's lead to some slumps and quite a few strikeouts.

    I don't have an issue how he put it together. Often times bullpens are built by just throwing things at the wall and hoping for the best. What I do have a major issue with however, is not making changes when the guys you have are terrible. The leash has been WAY too long with these guys. We took some guys off the scrap heap, it didn't work. Cut your losses and try something else. We have at least 4-5 guys in the minors that can be called up. They'd have to be really really bad to do much worse than what we have.
  16. brwrsfan
    They could easily move Hauser to the 60 day DL. He's already been out longer than that. Not sure why they didn't do that already. Even with him, there are several guys they could remove if they wanted to.
  17. brwrsfan
    Four run lead in the 7th, 3 straight lefties due up. To me that would certainly qualify as a prime situation to "ease someone in". If you can't trust your top pitching prospect in what should be a very successful spot (on paper at least) why bother to bring him up? Especially when your other option is Drake, who IMO should be been released long ago.
  18. brwrsfan
    They almost have to. Hader should be plenty rested enough (I'll drop it, but he 100% should have started the 7th inning tonight IMO). Feliz should be rested. How can we have NINE guys in the bullpen and have no options...ugh. I keep hoping one day I see they'll drop guys like Drake and bring some others up, anyone really.
  19. brwrsfan
    Yeah, that was quite terrible. A player is injured seriously enough to need to get carted off. The last thing on your mind should be "This is killing the Dbacks momentum". Even if you think it (which you shouldn't, it's not like he was playing it off to simply stall, that's absurd), to actually say it on the air is just flat out wrong. He most certainly owes at least an apology. It's really something that could even warrant a fine or something too. Just incredibly distasteful.
  20. brwrsfan
    I don't have the sound on, but it certainly looks bad. He got up, had to go back down and get carted off. Held his shoulder the entire time. That can't be a good thing. Ugh. Come on Torres. At least get out of this inning with the lead.
  21. brwrsfan
    Agree 1000%. Watched the Cubs earlier today. Holland walked the bases loaded. Three walks in a row with 1 out. Zobrist comes up, swings at the first pitch and pops up. Obviously I liked it, but at least make the guy prove he can throw a strike.
  22. brwrsfan
    I don't understand why that wasn't Hader's inning. 4 run lead. 3 lefties due up. Seems like a PRIME spot to use him. Instead, let's put in one of our worst relievers (IMO). I don't get it. Who pitches the 8th now??
  23. brwrsfan
    I'd leave Brinson down unless he's going to come up and play regularly. But I would love to see someone like Wren get a shot over Franklin. Franklin has done nothing, and Wren has very little left to do in AAA, let's see what he can do up here. And I'd also like to see Wang get a shot in the bullpen as well. Add another lefty. He's been lights out against lefties this year.
  24. brwrsfan
    TRats draw a pretty decent crowd. I wouldn't say it's always a sellout, but the crowds are sizeable. Mostly families from my experience there. Pretty cheap seats as well, with lots of promotions. I'll probably check out a Herd game at some point. I don't know that any of the D-League teams really have a huge following, but it'll be something to see. If they have cheap seats, I think they can draw some fans.
  25. brwrsfan
    Ugh. Come on Santana. Just take the base. That pitch bounced...ugh. Come on Bandy. Just a fly ball.
