  1. the irresolution of Tony and Junior's meeting, And the irresolution of practically everything else. The Kevin Finnerty stuff continues to make zero sense, those mistakes Bobby made in his first hit earlier in the season that they were so sure to point out to us? Totally forgotten. They let the second to last episode be considerably better than the finale, and that's a huge problem in my eyes.
  2. BUT, the whole family may be dead, which would bring that to 7. Too bad that because of that crappy ending, you'll never know for sure.
  3. To quote AJAY: BOOOOOOOOO!
  4. What the bloody hell was that? That's just horrible....
  5. A run in and the bases loaded with no one out? Bush is doing his best to give Yo his rotation spot, it seems.
  6. It should be pointed out that Dunn is a free agent after NEXT year.
  7. Trading draft picks would go a very long way to adding excitement to the draft.
  8. Boy, though. I still think there's a more recent Fielder MVP thread in there somewhere. I think you're correct, actually. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  9. I don't like threads getting locked when the thread we are directed to is over a month old. I agree completely, actually. Going through the first 1-4 pages is reasonable. Linking back a month seems unreasonable.
  10. Gagne will have to throw two days in a row for the first time this season. Last time he pitched 2 days in a row he got hurt. Wow, it took all of two pitches tonight? Or not. Weird.
  11. We're pounding the ball all over the place, and they've scored 8 runs on dinks, dunks, bloopers, and tricklers. Obscenely frustrating.
  12. We make it a game, and Carlos lets us down for the first time in a long while.
  13. Holy crap. That ball got out insanely fast.
  14. Capellan is punching his ticket back to Nashville and another hissyfit.
  15. I don't even know what to say..... this is excruciating.
  16. Poor hitting and crappy Cappy = not good.
  17. Wow, you'd almost think we tried that inning. Or not.
  18. Please discuss the topic at hand, and not Paris' 'qualities'. Otherwise, this thread is likely headed for yet another off-topic lock.
  19. 20th Rounder Cameron Robulack has signed already for 75,000 per the BA draft blog. Good work agent39! www.baseballamerica.com/blog/draft/
  20. Keith Law compared Laporta to a Greg Colburn/ Scott Hatteberg type of player. This completely sounds like the type of guy that Sal Bando would have picked. I think that's a bad comparison, as the guys that Bando picked didn't even turn into Scott Hatteberg-type players. Guys like Williamson, Dunn, and Green never even made more than a couple hundred AB's in the majors (or for Green, none). Of course if LaPorta turns out like Geoff Jenkins, a Bando draftee that also played LF out of college, then I think we've got a winner.
  21. I'm not sure where the idea that Lucroy has some special amount of leverage comes from Well, if you go back and read the thread, I said: They've taken three players with some leverage in a row here- two juniors and a HS guy that is being pursued by much of the SEC. So no, I'm not saying that Lucroy has a special amount of leverage, as I was actually commenting on how all of our last few picks had some degree of leverage. So, that idea hasn't come from this thread. As a good performing junior catcher, I just think he'll end up signing for above slot value, that's all.
  22. The only way he could improve his stock is by becoming a top ten pick, and he's just not that kind of player. Or by becoming a 1st or 2nd rounder? It's not like this guy was taken 34th, he was picked 101 overall! By definition, he would improve his stock if he moved up at all, and in terms of the payslots, every little bit helps. In terms of cash received, he's potentially talking the difference between like 200,000 and 1-3 million dollars. As I said before, they've got leverage. As in, Lucroy will likely get more than the 7 player taken in the 3rd round would normally get. With no second rounder, the Brewers have extra cash to play with, so they should be able to get some deals done.
  23. IIRC Cole Gillespie was a junior and a third round pick, and he signed quickly. Lucroy: .360/.408/.659/1.067 Gillespie(I originally had his 05 stats here, sorry): .370/.492/.683/1.175 Lucroy absolutely mashed this year, and he's a catcher. While Gillespie was a quick sign, I don't remember how much we actually paid him. But those numbers out of a JR catcher is astounding.
