    Ah, yes. My worst Brewer nightmare is coming true. Jeez, I hope this is for precautionary reasons only, but I sure have a sick feeling in my stomach right now. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

    Where is gwynn getting all this power? That is his 2nd homer of ST. The clear? The cream? BALCO? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

    Nothing like an 11 run inning to turn a close game into a laugher. Now 14-3 Milwaukee. I think the mercy rule might be in effect.

    Yeah, I chuckled when I heard "Chad Pennington" (instead of Cliff) during the A's game the other day.

    Weeks with Monster HR. Actually it was JJ. The announcer says 450 feet at least.

    I'm going on record as saying that Dana Eveland's downfall is totally and completely my fault. I traded for him on my Strato team about a week ago, knowing full well that it would doom his career. I couldn't help myself. I want to apologize now to Dana, his family, and all Brewer fans out there.

    It worked out fine for him, as he was drafted at the same slot last June by the D-Rays as we was by the O's the year before. Well, it worked out fine except he had to wait a year before making roughly the same amount of money.

    Didn't one of the guys from Rice sort of try to circumvent this a couple of years ago? Seems he enrolled but claimed not to be out for baseball or something like that? Colby?

    Reguardless wasn't this thread asking for opinions? Blazer, this thread did ask for opinions. You gave yours, I gave mine. It just so happens that yours is wrong. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

    Just thought I'd bump this up for info on how best to support Brewerfan.net.

    If Gordon stays healthy its Gordon by a longshot.... Certainly you're entitled to your opinion, but to suggest that Gordon is far and away more talented than Upton, Maybin, Braun, etc. is a stretch. Given that we have not seen him play a single minor league game yet, it might be a tad early to label him "the best."

    If I had to pick right now, I'd take Zimmerman simply because of where he advanced to and the level he produced at last season. Five years from now, when we see where Upton, Maybin, Pelfrey, Gordon, Braun, etc. end up I might change my mind, but right now I'd take Zimmerman.

    Well, I'm here, from home, but interestingly I haven't changed anything yet. The problem, whatever it is, seems to be an issue only at night... strange... Probably has something to do with the Patriot Act. Or maybe your ISP is solar powered.

    Who knows what he has after his surgeries. An 82 MPH fastball?
  19. deeswan
    Does anybody know if his "stuff" is any good? Since he's nothing but a LOOGY, his stuff doesn't need to be any good.

    Someone should write a song about that. Goin' back to Cali....

    It really amazes me to see Scherzer so high on the list. I saw him pitch in La Crosse (with the Loggers in the Northwoods League) during the 2nd half of 2004. He threw gas, consistently in the 93-94 range. He committed to La Crosse for last season, then backed out and went to the Cape Cod League. I'm 99% sure that, if he is indeed picked in the 1st round, he will be the first player I've seen in person who later became a 1st round pick in the MLB draft.

    (those guys at BF.Net) who have no lives and have studied every minor league prospect. Hey, I resemble that remark. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

    Wow, if the Braves don't sign a FA they will have 6 picks in the 1st 2 rounds.

    The point I was making that you can only have one guy who wasn't at least in AA on 8/1 in the AFL. I wasn't at all saying Hammond wouldn't have been a good choice, but he's not a legitimate choice by the rules the AFL has set out. My turn to beat a dead horse. Didn't the story indicate that the league had rejected the Brewers request for a waiver? Or am I just imagining things? (Very possible) My thought is that the Brewers figured that, in an injury situation, the waiver is a formality. Clearly that didn't turn out to be the case, but I still think that, from the Brewers standpoint, Hammond was the best choice to go.

    There is no doubt, and we sensed this right from the start when AFL rosters were first announced, that the Brewers could not have botched things more than they did this year in this process. I'm curious about this statement. I'll give you the Hardy/Escobar swap as a botch, although, at the time the decision was made to send JJ to the AFL, I thought it was sound. Other than that, I'm not sure how things were botched. Stetter got hurt, Fielder's wife has health issues. Could those issues have been seen in advance? As far as Hammond, I'm sure the team wanted to do this as he, by their accounts, didn't pitch much in his college season and had innings to burn. Couple that with the thought that he is on a fast-track to the bigs and it makes sense to try and get him there. I would guess they knew it was a possibility that it would be denied.
