Great takes! I think Baez will be a stud personally. His plate discipline is above reproach. I love the MLB.tv plan. I'm actually able to watch minor league games and feel halfway intelligent while reading something about our farm. A year or so ago I bought a box of Panini Draft Picks 2022 and got an Autographed Dylan O'Rae #/5 (Yeah, I know, grown man bragging about cardboard). He's been a favorite ever since. Promoted quick to Biloxi but there's like, no news on him.

Thank you! and also thank you for directing me when I created the profile! You could have easily just watched me post without telling me where I should. Thank you for showing me to my soap box! LOL

Thank you for your kind words! Your life is inspirational to me. I might have a little hard time getting low for the grounders, but I plan on trying adult wood bat or even just softball. Just something with the resemblance of baseball. As Billy Beane would say, "How can you not be romantic about Baseball?" Being a Brewer Fanatic has got to be one of the most unique experiences in sports. One of the smallest markets with (now) some of the most consistent success. I'm so happy I found this site. I'm excited to join you all for this ride and contribute where I can.

I was in the Marine Corps for 8 years. I got out and went back in the Army later that year. I retired from the Army after 2 years

My dad was a stickler little league coach. Not only would he have no problem making me ride the bench early on, but he would also make me do his score card. I'm happy I found a place where that skill is considered useful! LOL

Cheers my friend!

OH YEAH!!!! I WANNA CRUSH SOME COORS CANS TONIGHT! We are streaking in Denver!!!

Thank you, I read this in Harry Doyle's drunk voice.

Ned Yost PTSD going on right now...

I'm sorry, sometimes words are hard for me. Who would you trade Adames for? Is what I meant to ask.

Who would that be that is on the market? Crochet?

Look at Capra!

Top 5 Brewer memory of all time for me

OMG!!! THE BROADCAST JUST BROUGHT UP CAPUANO!! :D

Yeah baby! The umps got it right lol

that was such a delayed reaction from Toglia's fingers.. I don't see how he didn't make it but he didnt

That's a REAL 1st baseman.

PLEASEEE let him go out for the 7th..

This is Rea's day. Let him shine. This has the makings of a memorable performance for him.

sigh... nevermind..

Monty has been pretty clutch as of late, lets see him straighten that out.

Thank you! Will do!

Hey there, I’m Irrelevant. After creating a couple of blogs and participating in the live thread a little bit, I figured I better do a more formal introduction to give some context. I grew up in Wisconsin and my first love was baseball. My dad would take me to as many Sunday day games as possible at Miller Park. We used to sit behind the 1st base dugout where we watched Ritchie Sexson, Lyle Overbay, and Prince Fielder for years. I’ve cheered on the Milwaukee Brewers since before anyone knew who Matt Vasgersian was. I played, watched, and nerded out over baseball for most of my life. Along with a friend of mine, we would watch every game that we didn’t attend as kids (most we attended was nearly 30 games one year). On off days, we would talk about the next match up. Everything during the summer was baseball. I knew how to fill out a score card before I learned how to write cursive. I knew how to bunt before I knew my multiplication tables. I was so sure that my life would revolve around baseball. Then life happened. I realized my dreams of playing baseball were numbered. I had a hard time growing into my frame and became injury prone due to my lankiness. I decided to focus on my future and go into a military academy for High School. After graduation, I went straight into the military. Still following the Brewers, but from afar. Since we were the smallest market in the MLB, I didn’t get to catch too many games and I entered a dark period in my life filled with questionable decisions at best. I’ve since retired from the military due to medical reasons. During my rehabilitation, I discovered the joy that writing down what I felt brought me. The aforementioned friend now works part time in baseball. My sense of fandom has been rejuvenated. Along with a bit of jealously, this led to the birth of The Irrelevant Writer. I still don’t live in Wisconsin and no one I talk to cares about baseball. This is now my new “out of reality” and the evolution of my dream. In all honestly, I don’t care if nobody reads this or any of my blogs. If you do, I’m happy to have you along for the ride. I plan to be very candid. There probably won’t be a schedule of my postings. If I wake up with a good thought and I have time to write it down, I’ll post it. If I’m emotionally charged after a game, I’ll post an instant reaction. If I feel like watching the game with a crowd, I’ll participate in the live thread. I'm just having fun with this. Feel free comment, critique, commend, or tell me I suck. Any communication is good communication. Thank you, now let’s talk some ball! FG.FTC. -Irrelevant

We be them fighting thieves!!

WOW!!! TAKE THAT COORS FIELD!!!! MILLER IS BETTER!!!!
