  1. They basically did exactly that with Jeff Suppan.
  2. They've actively and openly shopped him, and they've shown a willingness to deal relievers before, even when contending. What is the recent precedent for a huge trade haul for a reliever? The relief market in general just hasn't been what it was. It's not like 2016 anymore when the Yankees got a top end prospect for a rental of Chapman. Unfortunately despite his dominance the club control is dwindling and the price tag on Hader is increasing which further lessens his value.
  3. If Josh Hader had the trade market that we think he ought to, he would have been wearing another uniform well before now.
  4. Craig, I'm going to go out on a limb and say Ashby doesn't have it today.
  5. His ERA is north of 4. It is 3.70 for his career, but 4.02 as a starter. Everyone always loves to talk about how hitting is down so much and we need to account for that when talking about stats and lower hitting numbers are the new norm and then we talk about Adrian Houser and then he's awesome because of his ERA.
  6. I think we have the market cornered on washed up MLB outfielders.
  7. Yelich's "nobody needs help facing you" reply to Darvish might be the most cringeworthy tweet on Twitter.
  8. I'm past the point of ever hoping that Christian Yelich will ever be useful again. He's not a good baseball player, and we're stuck with him and his expensive contract for a long time. That's the reality of it.
  9. I am asking once again that Christian Yelich be removed from the 3 hole.
  10. It is really refreshing to see the baseball gods not reward the Cubs for all their weak contact that inning.
  11. Tell me why Josh Hader shouldn't get Cy Young or MVP consideration.
  12. Not a strike, but it certainly was to Urias in the 1st.
  13. Doubleheaders are back to full 9 inning games, correct? No more 7 inning doubleheaders?
  14. It's absolutely incredible to me that the Brewers have remained as good as they are with how much Yelich had regressed. It seemed like their future success was tied to the success of Yelich, yet here they still are.
  15. Is Eric Lauer the best player in MLB history, or merely the best pitcher? Discuss.
  16. This should go without saying by now, but we gotta, gotta get some guys who can hit LHP.
  17. I'm more comfortable saying I think the Brewers will have a top 10 offense at the end of the year than I would be comfortable saying top 6. I think their pitching staff is good enough for a top 10 offense to be good enough to take them a long ways, though.
  18. I'm not even sure how much retooling they can really do. They have almost no tradeable assets or spending power. They'll be lucky just to hang onto Portis. They've hitched their wagon to their Big 3. Maybe there's some incremental under the radar moves they can do to upgrade their bench, but for the most part all they can really do is run it back with Giannis and Khris and Jrue and hope for better results next time.
  19. The fact of the matter is that this just isn't a very deep roster. You don't need superstars across the board but the Bucks a couple years ago were known for very strong bench play and whether it be just the fact that they've gotten too old or just bad roster assembly, they just don't have to depth to adequately cover a major injury. Acquiring Ibaka for DDV, any way you slice it, is a pretty damning stain on Horst's record. We get any adequate veteran for DDV instead of added dead weight and it would have helped a great deal in this series.
  20. Probably not an exaggeration to say this was the most poorly played Game 7 in franchise history.
  21. Budd. It's over, dude.
  22. 4 for 26 from 3. In a game 7. Quite a supporting cast that Horst assembled here.
