    I think we take Moose or Escobar if he could hit like Cutch 2022 AND we pay him next to nothing. We’ll take that at this point to add depth and another MLB body.

    Player? Not close, Sure. Not many can play SS well. Hitter? Well, it was pretty close last year one way or another.

    The whole “he can’t hit” thing is just off. He can’t field, sure. With our unsettled player at DH last year, it should have been an easy “let Hiura bat DH against righties”… bat him low in the lineup and let him produce. He was off the charts good most of the year against righties, better than almost anyone in baseball. Yet, we wanted Cutch to get his at bats for some reason. And yes again, his overall OPS was better than our #2 hitter. Some surely do not like that stat. It doesn’t fit their take on Hiura.

    Better OPS than Adames, even with the misuse and Adames hitting #2 all year.

    Better OPS than Adames in 2022… our star #2 hitter who we could not afford having out of that #2 spot. And this is with jerking Hiura around positions, spot batting for large stretches against lefties instead of righties whom he destroyed last year, and then put up and down from AAA, and having desserts of playing time sitting for 4 or 5 days and getting a spot start or pinch hit. Total and complete mismanagement so Cutch can hit and underachieve pretty much all year. Just playing him regularly last year, batting him low in lineup as a DH, giving him at bats instead of Cutch gets us in the playoffs imho.

    When hated Hiura has a better OPS than this guy this year, I think that is reason enough to tap those brakes and not shell out ridiculous money to this guy.

    Giving Woodruff that much money PER YEAR and for four more years, in addition to next year? And Yelich gets his money. Just not seeing it. Attendance down. This conversation should happen in July or so and maybe not even tgen. Let’s see how 2023 goes first. Very uneasy giving any pitcher big money to his mid 30s.

    Met him in the concourse of Miller Park about 15-20 years ago. He signed a ball for me and we talked 82. I told him I was young but I still remembered his long last at bat in Game 7. He struck out but to me it showed great grit and will. He said, “13 pitches, right?” I wasn’t sure then or even now, but it was a cool moment at Miller Park with Stormin. The actual people on that team were so loved. Many of those players were veterans in the game and had played several seasons with the Brewers. Best run of teams from 1977-1983.

    Great ideas…. Out of all of them, Cleveland would be my choice. Maybe a trip thru Fort Wayne to a minor league game and their famous children’s zoo. Friday night in June fits my schedule better than the others too. Love the idea of seeing all teams. Will be looking forward to each year’s schedule more now too, seeing if a trip to a certain city lines up well.

    The extra playoff team helps all of these small markets who usually have to sell out, get FA, and trade prospects just to get to the playoffs for a year or two. These short windows for the little guy can now open a bit. Play a little above .500 and you can get to the playoffs. Have an ace or two, ala Milwaukee, and anything can happen in a 3 and 5 game series especially.

    I feel there is still hope, even this year. It is ok to play him 7th in the order against a tough lefty too.

    Besides his throw to get Reggie at third in ALCS Game 5, I remember him for tearing up when his name was announced as he walked across Miller Park’s infield during the 25th anniversary celebration of the 82 team. Crazy what you remember… Who knew… 4th in team history for seasons played with ball club.

    I expect a real or convenient injury to Cain soon.

    She was great in one or a couple episodes of Cheers too.

    Still think putting Yelich back to RF would be a reasonable thing since he was so good at the plate both years in RF for the Brewers. If he struggles in April, I would be quick to move him back.

    She liked milk with Pepsi, if I recall correctly. I remember Happy Days having a pregame reunion on field In Like 2007 or so.... Potsie sang the National anthem..... not sure if she attended or not. It was when Fonzi's statue was put up downtown.
