You've already demonstrated you have no clue what you're talking about when it comes to Badger QBs.
-
This is what happens when you have as good of bullpens as the Astros and Mariners and no "ghost runner".
-
He doesn't know.
-
No freaking way. This is why you have people questioning whether you're actually a Badgers fan.
-
Clearly, you didn't watch Alex Hornibrook in 2018, or Joel Stave, or Curt Phillips, etc..
-
Trenches, Trenches, Trenches. We are getting absolutely manhandled there on offense and defense. So un-Wisconsin like, and it needs to change immediately if things are ever going to get turned around. So utterly perplexing, too, considering the talent on that OL. Makes me think a gutting of the coaching staff, including Leonhard, is necessary.
-
I wasn't even referring to the 2019 class in the first place. You just brought it up to attempt to score points on an old argument.
-
This team has far bigger issues than Graham Mertz.
-
Almost forgot I wasn't watching the Brewers watching this Mariners-Astros game.
-
Good god. Not this crap again. I will choose to ignore.
-
Crazy to say since our two best recruiting classes in history constitute the majority of our team right now. Biggest reason why I think it's time to clean house and move on from the whole Chryst era, including Leonhard.
-
Jim Leonhard ain't it imho. But he'll get the job, no doubt. Embarrassing stuff from the team this season.
-
Yeah, we match them in the rotation, and that’s about it. Though, it's not Segura, Castellanos, Eflin, that separate us. It's that Schwarber, Hoskins, Harper, Realmuto combination at the top of the order. We have no match whatsoever for that type of hitting ability.
-
Who do you want, specifically? If you're going to let them go, despite their long track record of success, you should at least have their replacements lined up...
-
The situation is going to get resolved one way or another this offseason. No way Attanasio goes into 2023 with Stearns and Counsell on one year deals.

Too Early 2023 Ideas (or beyond)
Brewcrew82 replied to jay87shot's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
I would definitely trade Adames for him if the Dodgers lose Trea Turner in FA. Brice Turang is a tremendous defender at SS. And I would much prefer to extend Burnes or Woodruff as opposed to Adames. -
Yet, which set of data is more statistically meaningful for drawing inferences about a player's ability? The 541 PAs where he was among the best players in the minors this year or the 36 PA cup of coffee in the Majors (i.e., small-sample size alert). @Ron Robinsons Beardis spot-on. Your original post was all about being contrarian for the sake of being contrarian.

Arcia goes deep in Philly. Ex-Brewers showing out this postseason.

I think you're severely overestimating what other teams were willing to offer for Hader considering the best deal we could seemingly get for him in 2020 when he had significantly greater value was Andujar and Frazier. I can't imagine how disappointed you would be in the return had we waited until this offseason to trade Hader with only one year of control remaining and a depressed winter reliever market. As far as Ruiz and Gasser, they're borderline top 100 guys right now. Now, Gasser may only ever be a mid rotation starter and Ruiz may only be a utility player, but that combined value over the course of 6 years would potentially rival or exceed Hader's value over the course of 1.5 years. In that case, the trade doesn't become a dumpster fire any longer. I'm not carrying water for anyone. If that's what you truly think, then you're full of crap. All I'm saying is that while it has backfired to this point, it made sense at the time and has the potential to go our way in the coming years.
-
You do realize that Hader was struggling just as bad as Rogers before the trade and actually was better than Hader after the trade? And it's not a "fact", considering Edwin Diaz leads MLB relievers in WAR and FIP since 2018. Heck even Devin Williams has been better than Hader since 2020.
-
He didn't admit it was a bad move. He just said he failed to consider the consequences of the move on clubhouse chemistry. It made complete sense on paper because you were trading Hader at the height of his value when he was showing signs of decline and you had the opportunity to replenish the farm system, while replacing him on the major league roster with a guy who had produced similarly in Rogers. Hard to foresee Rogers going from being home run-averse to serving them up like ice cream on a hot summer's day. Anyways, the trade was a failure as it relates to this season since we missed the playoffs. But the story has not yet concluded, given that we will have 12 combined years of control from Gasser/Ruiz compared to 1.5 years of Hader. They have shown enough promise that it makes me think we could come out pretty well ourselves. Certainly, it makes me hesitant to call the trade a total failure and to want to run Stearns out of the building. FWIW, I wouldn't say Hader is the best reliever in baseball any longer. I would probably give that title to Edwin Diaz of the Mets.
-
The thing about waiting till the offseason is we likely would've gotten even less for him with the reduced control and the fact that teams generally aren't as desperate for relievers as they are at the deadline. I'm really excited about Ruiz and Gasser. Ruiz led the minors in stolen bases while hitting over .330 and maintaining a low-K rate. God knows we could use that sort of profile in our lineup. Meanwhile, Gasser is a guy we really wanted in the draft and provides our system with a promising starter profile at a time our pitching depth was starting to dissipate. Lamet I agree was completely mishandled, as we ended up going with a guy we DFA'd a couple weeks later over him. As far as Rogers, he was almost as good as Hader over the last couple years. Hard to foresee how he could go so quickly from a minuscule HR rate to giving them up in droves.

2021 to 2022 Brewers, What Happened?
Brewcrew82 replied to sveumrules's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
He was dominant for a 9 start stretch in April/May. The killer was what he then proceeded to do in June. Otherwise, he was really solid on the year. -
Are there people here that seriously wanted us to sign Hader to a contract extension? Just wondering by the tone of some of the posts here...Cause I'm sure we would've gotten more for him this offseason.
-
We could've traded him for Andujar and Frazier back in the day when he had even more control and value. I'm sure that would've made you very happy.
