  1. Got hairy in the 9th but Justin Yeager came in to get the last out for the ship.
  2. As we look forward to the uncertaintiy of this offseason let’s take at least a little comfort that the guy calling the shots acquired William Contreras for Esteury Ruiz……’ and then had the stones to say that’s not quite enough…….and got them to throw in Joel Payamps and another pitching prospect who may or may not turn out to be an asset.
  3. I’m not saying it won’t happen but the part about pairing him with a “ young bench coach” to groom for succession appears to be speculation by Hogg.
  4. Ross taking the high road
  5. If they are going into a rebuild trading Peralta makes sense…….his value will never be higher and by the time we are ready to compete again he will be in tbe last year of his contract. At the earliest. its been a long time since we went through a multi year period of losing…….im not looking forward to losing but I am excited about seeing the kids play. it just sucks that the Bucks and Packers can keep their own players but the messed up MLB structure makes it impossible for small market teams to do it outside of rare situations.
  6. Rob Thomson thinks he’s being paid fairly……..
  7. Craig……better get those answers ready……because you left those softball press conferences in Milwaukee
  8. The needing a new challenge stuff (seems to me) is something you say when you really mean ……” I wanted the most money I could get ……and to stay as close to home as possible in getting it. “ Brewers offered him more than any other manager was currently making…….and they did so in one of the smallest markets. That wasn’t good enough…….i saw a quote from an article where they quoted “somebody close to Counsell” as saying ….” What I don’t understand is why didn’t the Brewers just pay him?” So……if they paid him 8 million a year then he wouldn’t have needed the new challenge? He wouldn’t have cared about being with a big market franchise? He would have signed the contract and talked about how much he loved the Brewers and never wanted to leave. Of course the Brewers would have had to be negotiating against themselves. When your revenue is below middle of the pack I’m not sure it makes sense to be resetting the managerial market……..
  9. Looks like no NRI for Ernesto
  10. Listen I really think CC is good at his job…….but this is getting ridiculous……..he isn’t God…….the level of hype is just embarrassing.
  11. https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/mlb/brewers/2023/11/07/craig-counsell-says-cubs-job-offers-a-new-challenge/71490864007/
  12. Only on BF.net can offering a guy a contract that would have made him the highest paid manager in baseball be viewed as a sure sign that the owner is a penny pinching Ebenezer Scrooge. ……… Steve Cohen is even laughing at that one.
