    You can do ATT TV on a monthly basis. The price is higher the first year, but then cheaper after that versus a contract as the second year of a contract is much higher. It is only a $8 or so increase to be on a monthly basis and it doesn't have an automatic increase after a year. Not sure why anyone would go with the contract to be honest. That being said it really isn't any cheaper than cable. It is just the cable equivalent for ATT internet users because they can bundle it for slightly cheaper prices. This is correct. Just looked at the options this morning, and it appears that to get FS Wisconsin, you need to choose AT&T TV's Choice package, which is $84.99/month. Which is very much less than ideal. Is it practical for a family living in um...numerous households...to, perhaps *cough* split that 3 ways or so?

    Draft helium isn't unique to pitching prospects, either. Corey Ray was immediately a top 30 prospect after the Brewers drafted him and we know where he ended up. Orlando Arcia was the #6 prospect in baseball in 2016. Sometimes they live up to the hype and sometimes they don't. Pointing to any one singular prospect not panning out or having their career ruined by injuries doesn't prove anything or devalue a current prospect any more.

    This risk isn't unique to young pitchers. About the same time Whitley was leading lists, Corey Knebel was one of the game's top closers.

    Also, I agree with other sentiments on The League. Fantastic, hilarious show for 4 seasons. After Season 4 it was a sharp slope down.

    Superstore was okay. I watched it, but it was never a show that I had to watch every week when new episodes came out.

    Wow that's more than cryptic. That's in your face direct. Also, Josh was banned from this site?

    I would have to think the Bears would still need to include multiple high picks to make it happen. What are the Seahawks thinking? What good does Mack do them? They're not competing in that division with Nick Foles as their QB.

    He's up to 63%. Maybe he reads this thread. He was over 72% the first two seasons. Guessing he'll move towards that as the season progresses. I've always been worried that one of these players will read one of these threads and then I'll feel bad for insulting them. Maybe I should be nicer to our players or at least the ones who are active on Internet forums.

    I also think it's possible he relies heavily on his analytics guys and looks for market inefficiencies in his spending. Maybe it was OBP at one time, maybe it's relievers another time, maybe it's defense, etc.

    I really thought there would be a DH this year in the NL, but it doesn't look like it. The fact that the MLBPA and MLB could not find common ground on something they both literally want speaks to how terrible the relationship is between the two sides.

    The playoff field really got diluted last year. I'm glad they went away from expanded playoffs and I hope it stays that way. I enjoy playoff baseball as well, but I didn't consider making the playoffs in 2020 to be much of an accomplishment.

    I don't see the big deal with LaStella. I would rather have had Brad Miller for 1/4M than LaStella at 3/18+.
  14. adambr2
    Just a hunch, but do you work for the government? Post of the year. I just really hope for his sake that Capital One and American Express do not monitor BF.net.
  15. adambr2
    This is basically a 1 year/13M deal. Unless Bradley totally tanks he's not picking up 1/11 on himself next year. Even if he got less annually, he's probably going to want a multi-year deal.
  16. adambr2
    400 ABs? Goodness, for 12M a year plus an opt out I would sure hope so. Hernan Perez got 400 ABs.

    We were, like one month ago. But it would rightfully take a massive haul.

    How can a 6'4 shooting guard like DDV suck so bad at free throws? 59%, really?

    The Greinke trade was forever ago, I don't think anyone here overrates or underrates him because of that any more than they do for Cain or Jeffress. Odorizzi is your classic 10-12M a year #3 pitcher. Randy Wolf, Kyle Lohse, Matt Garza, etc etc.
  22. adambr2
    Painfully accurate.

    But ... wouldn't having Hader on the 2021/2022 Milwaukee Brewers rosters theoretically provide value? I feel like that aspect isn't really being taken into account. Hanging on to one of the most talented relief pitchers in baseball is a good thing for a playoff contending team. Yes, this is fair. Having Hader on a rebuilding Brewer club would be a waste right now, but this team should contend. Right now, I think I'd peg us at 2nd in the division. I do think the Cards landing Arenado is going to hurt. I love the Wong move. Adding either Bradley or Odorizzi would be a great finish to the offseason. We're going to need some things to go right. Yelich definitely needs to return to form. We need a breakout from someone like Urias, and I'm hoping for a big rebound year from someone like Lindblom, Cain, Garcia or Narvaez.

    Agreed. Arizona at least has direction. It just depends how much you believe in Murray as a franchise QB. Pittsburgh has some talented skill players on both offense and defense, but they still seem like a rudderless ship. They should probably move on from Big Ben. Haskins isn't the answer. Landing either of Watson or Wilson probably turns them into a Super Bowl contender overnight, but I don't think they can afford to.
  25. adambr2
    I agree with both sides. I can understand why GMs aren't meeting our price and I can understand us setting our price point and sticking to it. However, if nothing changes with Hader and we are back in a year or two dumping him for little in basically a salary dump because we don't want to pay his 3rd or 4th year arby salaries, that would be very disappointing. That's essentially what happened with Knebel. I understand the situations are much different, but at one time Knebel had substantial trade value.
