Still knows how to locate the buffet table. I hope he can point the way for me, COVID has made finding a good buffet nearly impossible.
-
I am assuming that Counsell has no thoughts of letting Peralta throw 130+ pitches should things get...interesting.
-
Burnes seemed pretty impressed with that snag by Vogelbach.
-
Can't even show a replay of the Adames play at 1st? I'm not saying he was safe, but it sure looked replay worthy to me.
-
Offense really showing positive signs lately.
-
Why is Freddy bunting in that situation? Just let him swing away and try to put one in play and score another one. Don't agree with that one at all.
-
RBI fielders choice is about the best outcome I could have hoped for.
-
There are worse ones being home plate. That's the troubling thing.
-
It's Joe West. If he can get 50% of the calls right at this point, call it a win and move on. Has he gotten one wrong yet today? I'd say 3 to 4 minimum so far through 2.
-
Is it just me, or does JBJ have kind of a tough time reading a flyball for a OF known for his glove?
-
Lol, did David Peralta really think that was Ball 4?
-
That 1-1 pitch to Yelich wasn't really that close to being a strike. Is there one MLB umpire that can call a competent zone?
-
I'm surprised that the Nets have emerged as the strong betting favorites in this series. I figured it was as close to a tossup as can be. I'm not nearly as optimistic as owbc after the last two seasons, Jrue or no Jrue. I definitely think it's within the realm of possibility but am holding in "believe it when I see it" mode.

Trade with Twins (Mark Derosa suggestion)
adambr2 replied to patrickgpe's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
Bradley is 31, has a player option next year and has been absolutely awful this year. Some positive regression is likely to be sure but if they had a chance to get a mulligan on the deal and get Donaldson I sure would hope they don't let their love for Bradley's glove stand in the way. -
Trade with Twins (Mark Derosa suggestion)
adambr2 replied to patrickgpe's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
Don't see any problem with this trade proposal at all. Donaldson is overpaid but that's why the Brewers are getting 15M. JBJ's inclusion also helps offset the salary and gets us out of his 11M option next season. Kelly is a nice developmental arm for the Twins to get something for Donaldson but nothing to lose sleep over. Donaldson is an obvious upgrade at 3B and has 2/42 left after this season. With the 15M you're at 2/27 from our pockets after '21 which is totally reasonable without even considering the savings from JBJ. I've seen way worse proposals from the national media; in fact I would take this deal. -
Ahem! Yeah, I should have added "almost."
-
Scottie Pippen was definitely a superstar. It's just harder to be perceived as a great when you play your entire career with Michael Jordan.
-
Yeah I really don't think you use a 1st and a 4th on a guy that you plan to have hold a clipboard in your best case scenario. You use a 1st+4th on a guy you think can be your future starting QB. It's always possible that plans change along the way, but you can't just assume that because a guy has high draft pedigree, that you can recoup most of your original investment eventually. That didn't work with Brian Brohm, and it didn't work for guys recently like DeShone Kizer and Paxton Lynch. Some guys just turn out to be busts.
-
Devin is a frustrating guy this year.
-
Brewers 6 runs on 4 hits, DBacks 3 runs on 11. Making them count lol.
-
Brian Brohm says, "Hello". I don't recall Rodgers getting his undies in a bundle about that pick. I should hope not, he was still just a kid hoping for a chance to prove himself without a career NFL start to his name at that point.
-
Quite flawed in some evaluations, but this isn't one of them. Contract matters, and Yelich has a negative value because of his contract.
-
I would do what I felt was the right thing and just control what you can control without worrying about how Aaron will feel about it. I feel it's the right thing to have a transparent conversation with Aaron ahead of time just out of respect. If he vehemently objects or you don't take one and his feelings are hurt because of it, that is not something you can control and I would not concern ourselves with that, but at least you did the professional thing. Aaron is 37. He has to know and understand that we do have to plan for the future after his career. If his ego is too fragile to handle that reality, that is out of Gute's control.

Prospective trade deadline targets?
adambr2 replied to adambr2's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
Well he's not going to get more, but he's going to get 11 million, because that's the player option we gave him in his contract. -
I really am trying to see both sides of this issue. And I do think the Packers could have at least had a courtesy conversation with Rodgers ahead of the 2020 draft that they were considering going QB. But I don't think they owed him a new contract because he won MVP.
