  1. I agree Uribe overreacted big time, but Murphy didn't in either of the last two ejections. These officials need to be taken to task. If I were a manager I'd take the fine and demand accountability for the poor decisions being made on the filed. Including the wildly sporadic calling at the plate from ump to ump.
  2. Going back to the old American League East days the Yankees remain my most hated team. That reason and an added hatred for all big market teams that can spend at will. Dodgers now 2nd with divisional rival Cardinals 3rd. Go Brewers!
  3. Work out Trevor Bauer. He has never been convicted of anything and has essentially been vindicated for the most part. If he looks great and he agrees to be a good mate and citizen why not sign him to a prove it deal with no risk. Somebody will, why does it have to be the Yankees or Braves.
  4. Great news on Gasser and he should be on the fast track to getting a start with the Brewers. Also nice tidbit on Russ Smith, was wondering about him.....
  5. Weeks was 2 briefly at some point if I remember right. I think Jackson has a much brighter potential than Weeks ever had. On multiple fronts. A great jump for him to MLB, he would have been better served at Triple A for a bit longer but I understand the need to move him up. Patience with him should be long term.
  6. Excellent work. There are a lot of exciting prospects to keep an eye on and couldn't do it without this site...
  7. They have the best PT's, punch docs and orthopedic guys in the world. They must know exactly his issue with the back and why it reoccurs so often in such a young guy. Obviously the core isn't the issue, that they can strengthen. People decades older than he is have less trouble with a back that isn't perfect...
  8. Very in depth break down, excellent job. If he can't get back on track soon up here he may have to work on it down there. He needs to be on a very short leash for now game wise.
  9. The timing of the Hader trade was awful, but the end result excellent. Gasser and indirectly Contreras make it a home run trade. THIS is the only way small market teams can compete.
  10. Love break downs on our farm club prospects. I didn't give Clarke much chance to stay at catcher, who knows. The bat will decide his future. I hate the idea of trading a prime prospect for any reason and especially so for a rental if that be the case. Wilken is our future at the corner. Our future infield looks set for a long time if we can find that young first baseman, and I guess that too could be Wilken. Depending on how far into the future we go.
  11. 3 is where Yeli should be hitting in the lineup. I understand why he couldn't hit there in recent years, he wasn't hitting the ball well enough. Borderline last year all considered but absolutely not the previous couple. Let's hope he stays healthy and has that sweet powerful swing back he had before the big contract. If so, it's a game changer and so far so good.
  12. Great article, extremely technical breakdown. Excellent work!
  13. Wow this is a gem. Ton of good work, looking forward to it!
  14. Like has been said, you weren't kidding about bold! Well thought out. 1 and 5 pretty tough ones, all interesting....
  15. I think Haase is the obvious choice. He needs at bats though, don't just long pine him.
  16. We're paying Yelich to not only make contact but to be a power bat. Doubles and homers. It was a disaster since the big contract overall with some exception for last year. Numbers were good last year but not what was expected with that guaranteed contract as they all are. Yelich does hit a lot of grounders of late and tops the ball at a high rate too. But the power potential is still there, why wouldn't it be? If he's healthy I'd DH him as much as possible and bat him 3. Sal nor Mitch will ever have the power potential Yeli should have. Let's see if he can muster it. Sal is your natural lead off hitter.
  17. Starting pitching is the obvious main concern, and that's not on the coaching staff. They have what they have to work with. Other than that we need Yeli to be at least the Yeli of last year, not the previous couple years. At least for what he's being paid. We need Adames to have a good year at the plate but also we need a couple of the young players who are now beyond seeing first year action to make an impact.
  18. Would hate seeing Haase cut but carrying 3 catchers and 2 at 1B is not doable long term.
  19. I get that, that's why I said another prospect of value. Just an idea. I'd rather they just spend the money and sign Monty...
  20. Good break down. Murphy has been handed a tough go with the starting pitchers to begin the year. Didn't help overall when we lost our closer for half the year either but the certified starting lineup is meek. Anyone in MLB worse or I should say more questionable 5 deep?
  21. Wiemer needs to play, he needs to get consistent at bats. He needs to be sent down to do that. I have some doubts about Frelick at 3B long term, but in the short he'll see some time there. He and Mitchell need to play most every day and they'll do it here with the big club. Adjustments will be made and in flux throughout the season obviously concerning other players. I see Sanchez as nothing more than an emergency catcher, DH, and pinch hitter. He may start the year IL but I can't see carrying 3 catchers long term. Especially so if we're also carrying 2 at 1B in Hoskins and Bauers.
