  1. Kid...seriously, you were just whining asking me to leave you alone. You obviously don't want me to or you'd stop quoting the same post over and over... Your question has been answered. I am curious why you only seemed to care about HR total before and we add a guy who... is hitting better and how shown more power than Contreras and you're upset about it and how it's only NOW dawning on you that Suarez may cost more than you seem to think(though you've been all over the place with Pratt being traded for him and Henderson, but it also not costing nearly that much). Do you want to keep whining that I said about 4 pages ago that you have a child like opinion or do you want me to stop? Make up your mind there sport.
  2. LOL... no, I actually didn't call you any name. You're really flailing now. I said your take was child like. Are you really whimpering now because I am attacking your argument? Are you just immune from any critiques in your mind? Again... is there a reason this couldn't be in one post? Or why you couldn't... simply say Suarez the couple dozen times you were asked and said you refused to until someone said "what was if not the season we bEaTtHEDodGeRS!!!"
  3. My mood has swung in... what direction? You quoted this post twice in two totally different tones. See, now why don't you block me if that "child like" comment trigged you so badly? But it's also not because you "simply have a different opinion," it's because you have a... child like opinion. "I'd trade Made if it'd guarantee we'd win a Ship." That and you've made... probably 3 dozen posts without actually saying who or what you thought would be "going all in."
  4. Well... if Tremayne Person says so... So Naylor would have been the big power bat you wanted? You were asked no less than a dozen times who you wanted and silence.
  5. Nope. Not a bit of it. I pointed out a few people wanted to trade Chourio a couple years ago and he said Choiuro hasn't "progressed."
  6. I don't think we're going to trade Peralta. That's another benefit of having a deep system. You can just make the QO and take the pick. I assume we'll make one this year to Woody if he stays healthy. As for Gasser... I get your point, but recovery from TJ is a really high pct. I'd keep Henderson over Gasser only because Gasser's clock is running and Henderson's isn't(though having a lefty coming off TJ...where pitchers on average pick up a MPH or 2 on their FB isn't the worst thing either). Yeah, I think the context was who would you rather give up in a trade. So Gasser. You'd keep Henderson, trade Gasser.
  7. No, of course not. We literally ALL want to see the Brewers win a World Series. We've also all seen enough Baseball to know that it's rare that the best team get there and 7 seasons of Pratt is worth far more than 2 months for our market. It may be worth it for the Cubs or Yankees to trade a guy in that range. They can spend 100-300M more than us. I didnt even like the Sabathia trade at the time because Greinke was on the market(reportedly) and I thought it was smarter to try and get him...at least we'd have 3-4 years. We made that trade and had a first round exit. So while it was a great season... and we were in a different place. Getting into the playoffs was a bigger deal. But you never have any guarantees. The Padres have squandered SO many stars around the league that came from their farm system. If they were just patient and had their money... I really think they'd have won a WS by now.
  8. Henderson+Yoho and another prospect for Suarez and Justin Martinez and I'd be on board with that. I think you'd probably be selling Henderson at close to his peak value and if you could get back another arm who could be part of the back of the pen in the future? Probably unlikely. Most likely they'd deal Miller or Ginkel(who is actually kinda interesting himself despite having a big ERA).
  9. I'd think if you could go out and get a guy who has 3 years left like... Gunnar Henderson or Abrams, I'd be fine giving up Pratt and Henderson(and probably then some). Ortiz could have a ton of value as a utility player if he continues to hit. I just can't think of any teams that would be willing to trade a SS who's got 3-4 WAR value(or better) who'd be on the market and who hasn't hit arbitration yet. The ones that have, you'd imagine teams would want you to really overpay for them.
  10. Hey... sport. You have 3 of the last 4 posts and... while I'm quite sure you're in a group chat right now with your family analyzing my posting on Brewerfanatic.com... which would be ironic given your current claims, I thought you wanted this to end? It's been generally incoherent claims that you're the only one who wants to win and you'd NEVER give up Made, that's ridiculous, but you would if you got a magical guarantee it got you a "ship" and the same thing on a loop. So.... reply twice, finish it out and then lets move back on so we can have big boy conversations about the trade deadline. Sound good? And...go!
  11. That's a shame you haven't made better use of them. Oh well... there's still time.
  12. LOL...awe... you're such a victim! You realize this kinda looses all impact when you then AGAIN quote me! I guess we're going with the "nuh-uh, you are," stage of this? Bud, stop whining about stopping this after you've replied multiple times without me replying.
  13. Yeah, just amused by the "Brewerfan click" you have imagined in your head here. And... sorry to break it to ya, but you "telling me" to block you couldn't mean less to me(and you may not know how this board works, but there aren't "followers). Ya don't say! If only there was a font to articulate you're being sarcastic! But despite you're trolling, it's still entertaining enough...and you sure do seem worried about it. Even as I write this, I have another notification from you.
  14. What you find disappointing is of little consequence to me and I didn't say he hasn't been disappointing this year. He got hurt. That's "disappointing." I'm trying to convey how similar Suarez and Hoskins have been as hitters. I do realize I have to spell everything out in very simple terms for you.
  15. True. I've never been good at heading Twain's advice. I'm fairly certain @bigred and @brewers888are the same person. Once the original premise was kinda blown up, he came back in to continue to make some...amusing arguments/proclamations.
  16. Really? Who were you replying to when you said this then? Perhaps I'm mistaken. Show me who said Suarez wasn't an upgrade over Durbin? Or the other couple dozen examples.
  17. And during that time Suarez has had a .752 OPS and a OPS+ of 107 before having... again, an abnormally good year this year... where he's got OPS about 230 points better in AZ than on the Road. But if you think Hoskins getting hurt helped us this year... fine. It's less ridiculous than Chourio has been a disappointment or trading Pratt for Suarez or nobody wants to win except for bigred there.
  18. The 21-year-old in the midst of a 19 game hit streak who's put up a line of .307./.347/513 since the Brewers were .500 has been a let down this year? You were being serious? I mean it, it's genuinely difficult for me to tell. How about just stop saying objectively ridiculous things and grossly mis-quoting what people are saying? That's... really all it takes.
  19. Causation vs Correlation. I don't think getting back a guy like Hoskins, who incidentally has a higher career OPS than Suarez and has been more consistent than Suarez... is going to hurt the Brewers. Unless people really think Vaughn is the real deal. In which case... you still have a veteran RHed power bat off the bench.
  20. You're not even trying to be taken seriously right now.
  21. No, playing this game of "what if" isn't worth it. That's just... again, child like. It's not a real argument. If you could guarantee a trade would win a Championship, it'd be a pretty easy game, wouldn't it? But...obviously you cannot. And no, I don't like to "berate" people for having a different opinion, I can't stand the intellectually dishonest nonsense you keep spewing. A simple straightforward post saying, "Suarez isn't ENOUGH of an upgrade over Durbin to trade Pratt," a guy who is a top 35 overall prospect, an elite defensive SS who is 6'3, filling out and projected to hit for power. AGAIN, you read that as "He's not an upgrade." Don't play the victim... you know exactly what you're doing. And if you don't... well then I just feel bad for you.
  22. Nope. Try again. I'd like to see if you can accurately articulate the point he made or if you're genuinely incapable of doing so.
  23. I think it's ridiculous you'd give up ONE of them... And the magical, "if it won us a Ship," is child like thinking. No trade is going to guarantee anything OTHER than you're grossly overpaying here. Yeah, they haven't. You just struggle to comprehend what people are writing. For example, someone just said that Suarez wasn't ENOUGH of an upgrade over Durbin to trade Pratt and you came back incredulous and said "he's not an upgrade over Durbin!" So people write one thing and it goes in your head, gets filtered through your nonsense and comes back out something entirely different.
  24. My God dude, can you read? Does he say Suarez isn't an upgrade over Durbin? Let me help you out here... Do you see how you're just... I can't tell if it's lying or just an inability to read. Now, Suarez is an upgrade... as a power hitter. Overall, as I pointed out, Durbin in 81 games has a 2.2 WAR. That's 4.4 over a full season. Suarez has only eclipsed 4 WAR ONCE in his career. That said, saying he's "not ENOUGH of an upgrade" to trade Pratt is NOT the same as saying "He's NOT AN UPGRADE."
  25. Durbin is actually 2.2 WAR in exactly 81 games. Suarez, in his best season was 4.1 WAR. Now...do I think WAR should be the only metric used? Of course not, but...this is roughly what I expected. Pratt+.
