They don't need to. They're currently at 39 on the 40 man. EDIT: NVM. I forgot Donaldson brought them back to 40. So, Andrews/Jones look like DFA candidates to me. They'll have to start creating space in the offseason anyways.

It all stems back from when he lost his first arbitration case because the Brewers argued that he didn't pick up as many saves as other elite relievers and shouldn't be paid as such. Since then, he's exclusively been a one inning guy who refuses to pitch outside of save situations in the 9th. It's been about his bottom line ever since then. At the same time, I have a hard time criticizing a guy for doing that when any number of us would make the same decision (and in fact do in our daily lives) to protect ourselves and our families by maximizing earning opportunities and reducing/eliminating risk.

Yep. Understandable imo when you've worked all your life for something and are in line for generational money. A lot of us would make the same calculation.

Hearing rumors that Caleb Boushley is being called up and is slated to start tomorrow night. Can't imagine that ends in anything other than a ton of runs on the board for the desperate Cubs. Shame because I'm going to the game, but understandable. Good for Boushley though, and I hope I'm wrong. Must prefer Woody skipping his start as opposed to starting tomorrow and then going back out 4 days later for the Wild Card game 2. Makes sense in light of Saturday and his injury-plagued season.
-
This, I would love. But happen I suspect it will not. Otherwise, they would've activated him on Tuesday. It's between him and Rowdy and Rowdy looks to be the pick.
-
Just gotta hope it stays tied or Cubs up one game until the end of play on Saturday.

In thinking about what today will look like for Burnes, might be good idea to look at his season finale from last year vs. ARI: 3 innings 0 runs 5 Ks 40 pitches. I could see him going one or even two innings more than that to get to 200 Ks. Last thing Corbin wants I imagine is the team (or another team) using that against him in his final year of arbitration.

Look at the preseason prediction thread I just bumped. I predicted 90 wins and the Wild Card. Wrong on the wild card because I fell for the Cardinals-mania. But I felt confident about the pitching staff and defense.
-
One more win for my preseason prediction!
-
Braves win
-
Chafin. I doubt this lead lasts for long.
-
Braves did it to the Cubs again lol
-
What the....They had Taylor.
-
Victor...
-
Make it 5 for 40.
-
Hell of a year from Miley. 3.14 ERA from your #4....
-
How many soft groundball hits are the Cardinals going to get.
-
For a guy who's supposed to hit lefties, Perkins doesn't hit lefties very well.
-
Yeah Caratini hitting cleanup against a lefty and Rowdy and Turang in the lineup says it all.
-
Burnes still the listed pitcher for tomorrow. I doubt that changes and I doubt he’d want to skip given last year’s arbitration proceedings. He’ll want to try to get to 200ks at least, even though he’ll likely fall just short of 200 innings.

2023 Brewers Season Predictions (Post-ST)
Brewcrew82 replied to Brewcrew82's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Unfortunately, it's only a matter of time until Marmol gets axed and Yadi replaces him. -
There is absolutely nothing else newsworthy in Milwaukee right now so I'm just counting down the minutes until this game starts.

2023 Brewers Season Predictions (Post-ST)
Brewcrew82 replied to Brewcrew82's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Yeah. Same with the Cards. We all fell under their devil magic spell. -
I actually think they win tonight. Despite the celebration, they didn't sound thrilled with how they'd been playing the past couple days and look eager to get back on the winning train.

2023 Brewers Season Predictions (Post-ST)
Brewcrew82 replied to Brewcrew82's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
So, I'm very close to getting the regular season record right. Missed on the WC part because I, like most everyone else, was in a Cards trance preseason (though I was rightly skeptical of their pitching and Goldschmidt/Arenado repeating career seasons in their mid 30s). Aced disappointments with Lauer, Bush, and Mitchell (I accurately didn't expect him to stay healthy). Also did very well with breakout predictions, hitting on Uribe and Peralta (made 30 starts and could very easily finish top 10 in Cy Voting, though his last start didn't do him any favors). Whiffed on Urias. Rowdy tricked me into thinking he was a good player. And I should have known better with Chourio given this front office is not as aggressive with upper level prospect promotions, not to mention being extremely judicious w/ 40 man spots and starting service time clocks.
