  1. Said it before: I love this site! Even when I'm not all that active, like today, I enjoy reading 95% of what I read in the threads and I learn something from pretty much every article. Only quibble I have is that when I ignore users and other people quote them, they pop up in my feed. Nothing terribly negative today, at least, and the upside here is exponentially higher, in my opinion, than other Brewers fan sites. Always helps when they play well too!
  2. Plus I suspect there's a pretty good chance they made an offer at some point. I just think the odds of a deal now are basically gone. Same with Contreras in all likelihood. I certainly hope both were given offers at some point but with the Brewers approach to budgeting and publicly declaring they lost 20 million on the TV deal this year I just don't see it happening. There's also the small possibility with Turang (and even Contreras) that if the upcoming lockout next year results in broader revenue sharing and a cap (or more likely, something they don't call a cap but has the same effect) that the Brewers hope to be in a position to make another run at him with a deeper pool of resources. And I guess I'm not 100% convinced that Turang is going out the door all that soon the more I think about it. Yes the organizational infield depth looks insanely good right now. But it's inevitable that someone is going to get hurt and miss time. It's inevitable that someone's going to level off (my bet is that Pena turns out to be a slower developer at the upper levels than we first hoped.) Turang still has 3 years of arb left, barring a reduction in years of control under any new CBA. I suspect he'll be a Brewer into 2028 at least. Really going to be interesting watching the Brewers manage their organizational infield depth the next 24 months. They already did something I really didn't expect by extending Pratt.
  3. Mis hasn't been bad by any stretch but I do wonder what his day had been like if if hadn't been for that long break in the middle of an inning. (Hope CB is ok. Just because he's not great at his job and kind of a prick when confronted with that fact doesn't mean I don't feel for anybody dealing with a concussion.)
  4. Maybe it will result in Murphy and Cash laughing together across the diamond about how bad CB is like they did tonight.
  5. Opted to watch the USMNT tonight and was frustrated enough after that to check the Brewers score, see they were down 2-0, and go out for some night sky photography instead of watching the Brewers come back and beat the Rays. Did I mention that clouds rolled in about 10 minutes after I got to dark skies and set my camera? All my choices were bad. 🤣 Go Brewers!
  6. Took the words right out of my mouth (and I didn't see them until i posted almost the exact same thing).
  7. Well that was disappointing. 9th could have been handled better imo, but you literally can't win 'em all.
  8. Man the Rays are annoying. This is why fans of other teams hate watching their guys play the Brewers.
  9. I too find the Pratt extension surprising in part due to timing and, this is speculation, I wonder if the timing might not be the product of other extension offers to discussions not going anywhere. As for Turang, if he was ever open to a team friendly extension that probably ended once the 2025 season began. Maybe it was never going to happen anyway. With the depth they have in the system in the middle infield I doubt they'll make a serious attempt to extend him now. You never know I guess but with a cost controlled SS they obviously love in the system for the next 8 years and a number of guys in the system they can slide to 2B, I just don't see them spending the money. We probably still get to watch Turang through 2027 (assuming there's a season) at a minimum though. As I said, watching the Brewers manage their middle infield embarrassment of riches is going to be pretty damn interesting the next 12 to 24 months. And today I learned that they liked Pratt more than I thought they did.
  10. That was the acquisition that left me a little curious, not that I know better than the Brewers front office does.
  11. Everything just seems to come together when Turang hits/gets on base.
  12. Sure was. He worked through some things early and threw a lot of pitches but that's about everything you could hope for from his first start.
  13. Kind of feels like the writing has been on the wall for the better part of a year that if there were talks they weren't going to result in a deal with Turang. I don't think he's going anywhere soon but I also don't think he'll sign an extension in Milwaukee.
  14. True that they value defense, but Made's bat is unique in the Brewers MiLB system. Which doesn't mean they won't move him off SS now that Pratt is likely to remain with the Brewers.
  15. 43 pitches through 3 innings for Martinez. Brewers are struggling to execute the patient approach they used against Chicago.
  16. I guess I read that weight gain a lot differently than you did, but you may be right on it.
  17. It's honestly going to be a little fascinating to watch the Brewers manage their infield depth the next 24 months. I like Pratt, but this is a little jaw dropping. If I had to bet on an MLB contract and extension for a position player it would have been on Made. This doesn't rule that out by any stretch of the imagination, although I do find myself wondering if Pratt was the first of their SS in the pipeline to get an MLB extension offer.
  18. I get that if Quero is on the roster he's going to play and getting him reps is important, but I still don't think starting Quero with a rookie pitcher in his first start since joining a new club set either of them up for success.
  19. I was very surprised by the lack of challenge to that pitch call in the 9th as well. Not sure why you wouldn't to be honest but maybe there are things about the system/rule I still don't understand.
  20. I know the White Sox don't look dramatically better than last year, but this team, man....
  21. So, swinging out of your shoes with 2 strikes, a guy on, and down 4 is a choice you can make I guess, Mr. Bauers.
