Regardless of what happens with a potential lockout and/or free agency, this is something that can never be taken away from the players or the community!

I know this is off topic but, if there was an award for MVP for the entire playoffs, Jake Bauers' name would have to be thrown into the ring. Those two epic at bats against the Dodgers changed the complexion of that series. His play on the errant throw from David Hamilton in the fourth inning last night might be overlooked. If he didn't manage to catch it AND somehow keep his foot on first base the Rays would have scored, potentially opening up a big inning for them. Magic number for the Brew Crew is 162 for next season! :-)

Yamamoto is the pitcher I am most concerned about. He has proven that he is one of the most dependable post-season hurlers in MLB. In a way, one cannot classify any of his pitches as secondary. He has absolute command over his entire arsenal.

This piece of yours would make Vin Scully proud. Nicely done, Matthew!

It seems that Gordon, if he can replicate what he did on Tuesday, would be an ideal middle reliever (like a Brent Suter). He could go through the opposing lineup twice when a starter only goes two or three innings, which would allow Ashby and Hall to be used more frequently in the later stages of the game. Just a thought...

It has been painful to watch his approach at the plate, particularly with off-speed pitches-but do not give up hope. When you least expect it: https://pinkmonkey.com/dl/library1/book1305.pdf And yes, I know the time span in the poem is twenty years years between the ignominious strikeout and his redemption, and I know this is fiction-but the message comes through loud and clear. Casey was worse than an asterisk but, in the end, figured it out. CY will do the same...

He looks like Brandon Woodruff's brother. That's got to count for something, right? 😉

You are probably right. Having said that, some teams have learned that investing that much money can hamstring an organization. The Brewers are one team that has been taught that lesson.

First of all, thanks very much for responding, Cory! Yes, we should go after Skubal-with one big exception: unlike the time we rented CC our owner should break the piggy bank and immediately sign him to a two-year extension. If we can do that (I know it borders on being a pipe dream), then two top 100 prospects and one or two position players would, IMO, not be too high a price to pay. The other option would be to do the same thing in pursuing Mason Miller. If we could get him, there would not be another team in all of baseball that could match the back end of the Brewer's bullpen!

Outfield is not the Achilles heel for the Brew Crew. IMO getting a front-line starter and another quality reliever should be the top priority. We have to counter the Dodgers' rotation should we meet them in the NLCS.

If Trevor blows another save to extend the losing streak, I think it will be a foregone conclusion that Uribe becomes the default closer.

Brandon has demonstrated for us the heart of a true team player. Whatever it takes to help, even if it involves stepping a bit out of his comfort zone to do so. I hope he is a mainstay of the Brewers for a long time!

How about this one: trading Made, Pratt and Chourio for Aaron Judge?
