  1. There are literally not any worse options than Winker.
  2. Even if you HAVE to put him in the lineup, which he shouldn't generally be in, you have 9 options for spots to put him in the lineup. Why would you bat him CLEANUP???
  3. I am honestly not sure any team takes more than 1 game against this team in a playoff series.
  4. If Gamecast is accurate, pitch 2 to Arcia was a horrific call.
  5. Why? He's been throwing BP sessions and appears to be on track. I don't think we have any reason to not expect him back in early August.
  6. You know who doesn't call a strike on a pitch off the plate just because the count is 3-0? Roboumps.
  7. So, every time you see an apparently lopsided deal like this go down in your favor, you're obviously excited but there's always another part of you going, "OK, there's got to be something more we don't know." Like maybe Ruiz is just way highly more regarded as a prospect than the public consensus? That was my first assumption and it would also put new perspective on the Josh Hader trade. But, so far, this trade looks exactly how we would have expected to and I still don't understand it. Maybe if there was some big salary implications attached, but there isn't. I am not sure how or why a prospect like Ruiz is worth a young AS caliber catcher plus other pieces. I still don't get it.
  8. Can you imagine if we didn't acquire Payamps? I'm still trying to figure our how we got Conteras and Payamps for Estuery Ruiz. Seems like a veto worthy fantasy football trade.
  9. His overall trend the last few years and the fact that he's 43 suggest that he is probably out of gas. However, his numbers are simply mediocre, not utterly unplayable, so if they wanted to pick him up for essentially free and let him DH against LHP, I'd have no issue with it.
  10. Bucks couldn't really do anything else other than run it back with their core, so keeping it together with Middleton and Lopez was the correct choice. As others have said I think there's a 2 year window here to try to win another ship and then the Bucks are in for some very lean rebuilding years. They will attempt to keep Giannis of course, but I think his mind is all but made up to play out his contract here and then take his talents elsewhere for a change.
  11. Final answer to who won the Urias/Lauer for Grisham/Davies trade: nobody.
  12. Rowdy has never been good. For the life of me I can't understand why people expect him to be anything other than the replacement level player that he has pretty much been for his entire career.
  13. No he most certainly would not.
  14. You should just be able to sign out and watch it then? Or find a better way to spend the next 3 hours than watching Burnes throw BP.
  15. True, but foresight is kind of part of the job of a GM, no?
  16. I don't think Chourio should sniff the bigs for at least another year. He's a teenager and we have no reason to rush him right now. Keep him at Biloxi all of '23, start him in Nashville in '24 and if things go well he comes up next summer.
  17. I mean he's been almost the exact same guy in every season since 2020. I wouldn't say this season is any notable difference from the last 3. We just have given up on 2018 and 2019 Yelich a long time ago.
  18. https://fansided.com/2023/06/13/packers-broncos-aaron-rodgers-trade/?amp&amp&utm_campaign=minutemedia&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=minutemedia Boat missed so badly by Gute if this is true.
  19. Imagine the Nashville Sounds coming into AmFam and not only winning a game, but sweeping the Brewers. That's what happened here.
  20. The Brewers have done something extremely difficult, take a team which has spent a great deal of time in 1st place the last 2 seasons and make it an utterly boring, unentertaining, unwatchable product. As far as I'm concerned, either sell the farm, open up the wallets and really go for it, or sell everyone of substance and gut this thing to the ground so we can just enjoy watching the prospects again because this perennial style of "don't rebuild, but don't really try to compete either, just cobble it all together and see what happens" is a disservice to the fans and a disservice to the franchise. Go 2011 or go 2015. But figure it out and stop trying to do both.
  21. Everyone but the first place team in the NL East has a negative run differential. Everyone but the last place team in the NL Central has a negative run differential. 🤣
  22. Shoot they almost didn't even get here. They were down to the Bulls most of the 4th quarter in their playoff game. Who knows how things would have played out after.
