    Middle relievers dont win you division titles or championships, but a bad bullpen certainly can lose on for you. Sure, Id love for the Brewers to have gotten back more for Inman. I liked Inman, but we'll get draft picks out of this as well. And as Melvin said, that was part of the consideration in this deal.
  2. RyDogg66
    The haters are using small samples, instead of what he has done the past 2.5 years.
  3. RyDogg66
    All of this bellyaching is pretty wild. Maybe we should think about trading Capuano or Sheets for prospects, then people will be happy with Melvin again. Inman has a long road to success in the major leagues.
  4. RyDogg66
    Yeah, Melvin already said in the pregame show that if Linebrink wasnt a Type A than we wouldnt have done the deal. Seriously people, Inman as Roy Oswalt and John Smoltz?? Come on, he is good, sure, but get out of 2001 and into a team that is full of young players and competing for the best record in the NL. Oswalt and Smoltz. You guys crack me up. He's just as likely to be Jamey Wright or Bruce Chen.

    Ok, I only read the first page and a half, but people seem pretty upset by this. Here are my thoughts. When I first heard the deal, my initial reaction was "Inman?? For Linebrink? Wow." But I had a one hour drive ahead of me to digest it. Garrison and Thatcher are filler. One has about topped out as a 25th man-type, the other has a long way to go to do anything in the bigs. Inman is a shorter right handed pitcher who hasnt fared too well in AA. He isnt helping the Brewers in 2007 or 2008 anyway. We get Linebrink for 2.5 months, he's been about the best setup guy in baseball over the last three years. He'll get too much money at the end of the year, we'll get two picks and replenish what we lost. How is this a bad deal? Unless you have no trust in Melvin and Jack Z. when it comes to the draft, you should probably love this deal. Even if Wil Inman is the next Carlos Villanueva, it isnt like we traded him for Wayne Franklin. I just dont think Brewer fans are used to trading AWAY prospects, we are used to hoarding them. Get used to it, the major league team is chocked full of young talent, there is no room for Wil and Linebrink helps this year.

    So we went from having 6 Ofs for most of the season to 4?

    Any expansion/relcocation/realignment needs to end up with 2 leagues, with 4 eight-team divisions. Top two teams from each division make playoffs. Divide them east/west. 8 divisions could lead to the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 6th best teams in a league making the playoffs while team #2 and #4 could be left home. Imagine an NL with the Cubs or Cards as the #1 team in baseball. The Brewers finish a game behind, have the second best record in baseball, but are out of the playoffs while a team like Houston or Cincinnati makes it with 81 wins.

    greenies stimulate your system and therefore enhance your performance = performance enhancer. It is possible that is what it was.

    Cause of death appears to be a ruptured artery in the neck. Apparently that is where he was hit, not the head. sports.espn.go.com/minorl...id=2948605
  10. RyDogg66
    As long as you are fine with a 75 win team going to the playoffs occaisionaly, then it looks pretty good.
  11. RyDogg66
    There is a pic of him on the jsonline.com
  12. RyDogg66
    Yeah, he was a major leaguer for a year maybe, total. Minor league ball doesnt pay well at all. I hope his family gets lots of help.
  13. RyDogg66
    I wasnt ripping on Jenks for getting HBP. I thought that was clutch. But he should be a brewer next year.

    At least Jenkins is making sure there is no debate about picking up his option, not that there was that much debate to begin with.

    Too bad Overbay isnt as good an athlete as Mench, Carlos Lee and Manny Ramirez. If he was, maybe he could have played LF.
  17. RyDogg66
    Why was this guy "using quotes" in his "letter" whenever he was saying "something" to this "guy"?
  18. RyDogg66
    Dont foget that Cubs got 6 against the pathetic CHIsox and we got 6 vs. the considerably better Twins. Im sure that's fair to teams competing for the same playoff spots.
  19. RyDogg66
    There are plenty in the farm system, guys like Jeffress, Solome, LaPorta, Gamel, etc. None of them are really close to coming up, but that is because we've called up something like 12 guys in the past 3 years.
  20. RyDogg66
    With the chronic complainers and I-told-you-so crowd right behind him.
  21. RyDogg66
    If Sheets comes back in exactly 15 days from his injury he could miss just 2 starts.
  22. RyDogg66
    and then there is the Rickey/Jon Olerud story. That one always makes me laugh.
  23. RyDogg66
    I'll be listening to Spoon "Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga" on the way home tonight.

    anytime you combine two of man's favorite three things you are gonna get this kind of attention (the three things being sports, attractive women and the third being food).
  25. RyDogg66
    Context clues I suppose. They said "another man" which seems to indicated that Nolan was accompanied by a male, making the "supposed third person" another man, instead of just a man.
