  1. This philosphy only works if you think the draft picks are worth more then the players offered. As I said you take the best deal possible...if the best deal is to keep him and take the picks you do it. We can tell The Rangers(or any other team) this is what it will take and they can tell us to go jump in the lake. Taking draft choices is not an appealing option but it is certainly an option. Hopefully the market heats up and we have 2 or 3 teams bidding for him.
  2. It's semantics. Brewers could have kept Fielder but it wouldn't have been worth it. That is the same decision the rangers made with Wilson. Greinke could very easily fall into that category as well. This is untrue. The Rangers could have kept Wilson last year they just decided what he was getting paid was over what they had him valued at. I still see Wilson as being over paid right now and if the Rangers would have given him more and for more years that would have been a really bad contract. This was just a GM being smart and knowing how far they should go and not to give in and pay the player more than they are actually worth.
  3. As a fan you can be unrealistic...as a GM you have to make the best deal possible. You get the best return you can for Greinke....if they will include Profar(doubtful) great but if they won't then either you take their best offer or a better one from somebody else. Unlikely that they will sign Greinke since they have Hamilton to deal with as a FA and couldn't even afford to keep Wilson last year.
  4. Is it realistic to think they will give up Profar for 2 months of Greinke?
  5. Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi #Brewers have a scout watching the prospect-laden Frisco club, #Rangers Class AA affiliate. Further evidence of Texas interest in Greinke. Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi To be clear, the #Brewers have a special assignment scout watching Frisco. I'm told this is not routine coverage. #Rangers #Greinke http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?t=t_ibp&cid=540
  6. So Texas anyone? Who would be the targets if the guys they mention are not in play? http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/the-gms-office/post?id=4488&_slug_=10-most-likely-to-be-traded-by-july-31
  7. Morgan just continues to show he doesn't know the difference between aggressive and dumb..... I agree on Shaefer.....in a year like this lets get a look at some of the young guys.
  8. This was predictable after the 10 run outburst yesterday. Back to our typical offense and typical bullpen
  9. Good news....cleared waivers The Brewer Nation ‏@BrewerNation 16m Follow Brewers‬ announce that Brandon Kintzler has cleared waivers and has been outrighted to the AA @HuntsvilleStars.
  10. The good thing about a game like this is Roenicke has lots of bullpen choices for this type of situation......
  11. Wolf's option won't be picked up. No reason to spend 8 million dollars on him when you can get the same production if not better for far less money. He is bad now and getting worse.
  12. Wow... from a guy who many were looking forward to helping out the BP to gone in a heartbeat.....
  13. How does Morgan doing something stupid make Brewer fans look bad? I'm no Morgan fan but he can't make me look bad....only I can do that. You are probably right, but pushing that fan was out of line. Had Molina done that to one of our fans, this board would erupt. It was a classless move, and I really wish he wouldn't make us look bad like that.
  14. *** Morgan.....now he doesn't even know the ball strike count when he is hitting? Get your head in the game or grab some bench.....I have no idea how RRR can even stomach the constant mental lapses from this guy.
  15. RRR's press conference should be fun after this game if we hold on. Could a manager be anymore pissed off after a win then today?
