  1. Being tough and being stupid is a fine line. Managing from a separate room? I think the idiot’s guide to managing talks of this. Just take some time off, try to get closer to 100%, and trust your staff. And Arnold needs to step up here and take his dad’s car keys for a while for his own good. Do what is right is different than what is easiest.
  2. Our skip just had back surgery. Trying to be tough is one thing. Kudos. There is merit in trying to STILL be there and show these Brewers what it means to play thru it, grind, tough it out, and rub some dirt on it. But then again.., yeah,…it became much more than simple back surgery, if there is such a thing. The meds have undoubtedly worn down dramatically from Friday and he’s gotta be in some pain. And traveling now is not welcomed. And it could be made worse if he doesn’t properly take care of himself. Sitting out the next half month seems right and maybe shoot to join the team after the All Star break. Moreover, did anyone see or hear from him today? I probably missed it. Like I said, Friday he could be loosy goody from operation meds. Today is likely much different.
  3. I am surprised they listed the starters ALREADY for this series. All the games? I get listing Monday and Tuesday. Listing Drohan for Thursday? I'd like him pitching middle relief tomorrow or Tuesday if need be. I think we are boxing ourselves in for tomorrow and maybe even Tuesday.
  4. Yoho and Black….Murphy not a fan. Like he’s looking for a way or reason to get rid of them. No leash. Perkins….on the opposite end. Murphy wants to keep him. Like a coach’s kid that gets every opportunity. Not good enough to play regularly, but the coach finds a niche for him.
  5. A great game today to remind us how great Game 5 was…
  6. He fits the role. Maybe a day more rest.
  7. I would do it for Peña and change….some lower level minor league guys. Peña might be the best player offered at the deadline for Skubal and the Brewers system is deep. We also are so deep at middle IF it is nuts. We likely will be trading depth there at some point anyways. And if it’s not enough, it’s not enough. There is enough risk with Skubal’s injury to not get crazy and offer like 4-5 quality prospects for him.
  8. Make it against CBA to negotiate/pay fee for Japanese league players. Let them sit in Japan and play there. It’s time for them to come here by way of draft and MLB Dollars to stay with drafted players…not 16 year olds in the Dominican republic or Japanese league teams.
  9. Give him til next Tuesday to pitch….put him on the Sale treatment.
  10. Easy Vaughn…and manly for his extra base capability to score three to tie game or win it wi one swing. 1 run it is trickier since Frelick could tie it with a 10 pitch walk or win it with a knock.
  11. It would work easy and seamlessly. How we are paying these high “fees” to Japanese teams is just plain stupid. Get players/management to agree and retain rights. The money stays in house.
  12. Couldn’t that still happen with more than 8 Groups?
  13. How did US clinch round of 32 with two wins? Couldn’t two other teams in Group also still go 2-1 and US lose to go 2-1 and have a 3 team tie? Is this because possible 3rd place teams cannot get to two wins -6 points- anymore? Please explain.
  14. If local TV money is pooled, the other stuff is minor. We could still excel at building a minor/major league roster with now added $ to extend even more players.
  15. Anyone know how fast his pitches were thrown? Seems odd…did they have the gun off?
  16. Rengifo at 209 PA…just got 100,000 bonus at 200PA…would get additional 100k for each 50 PA until 350 PA and then 250k at 400 PA. Pretty good reason to DFA…. Could still see him in Nashville, however. https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/player/_/id/28163/luis-rengifo
  17. Bring back the Coooop! Chants….something so right and good about that! Bring back Cecil to throw out Tuesday night’s first pitch!
  18. How good and even right will it feel to yell COOOOOOOP! on Tuesday!
  19. $245 is likely the 5th/6th row…and all seats are “behind” the plate as the Truss seats are only between dugouts. I wonder if Amy moves to above a dugout to continue being front row girl. Above dugout row 1 is not Truss. Where Bob is sitting now IS in the Truss.
  20. The whole why pull Pratt in the middle of the game? What gives? The only thing that happened was Rengifo getting dinged a bit. He didn’t come out of the game, but he looked sorta kinda hurt. Was that enough to make the Brewers brass think an IL stint was a way to keep depth and get Pratt up? Or was a Brewer traded? Or was the Ortiz error the last straw? Otherwise, all this could have been announced today.
  21. Our TV announcers saying Miz outing was better than an Ohtani’s playoff pitching outing with 3 HRs (against us) in NLCS. Craziest homer thing I’ve heard all year…
  22. Not so deep anymore…
  23. In order it’s Cubs, Bears, and then other big markets like Cowboys, Dodgers, Yankees…….. So looks like I’m rooting for the Indiana Bears to beat the Cubs in ping pong. Also, Chicago is such a dumpster fire, even the Bears want OUT..just classic.
  24. Will he pitch Thursday in Milwaukee? Or pitch in Atlanta on Friday?
  25. Then you should pat yourself on the back. Good. It’s a lot tougher for me when other bigger markets look down on you because of size…or that they have the money to spend at their disposal and are snooty about it.
