  1. Who was that MVP player on the Royals when they won it all a few years ago?
  2. This is why I think Rodgers has 2 more years here and 2 only, no matter what Gute might say otherwise. It just doesn't make sense anymore to draft a QB and not plan to start them until Year 5. It makes less sense to decide two years out that you're going to get rid of a HOF QB. Lets see how Rodgers plays, lets see how Love plays. It's quite a bit more nuanced than looking at when Rodgers cap hit starts to let up. If Rodgers is playing great, I don't think the Packers eat whatever it is...25 million because that's the year the Cap hit is low enough to save them money. HOF quarterback at this point is just a label. He hasn't played at that level in several years. We may not see it again. Of course, yes, if he someone discovers the fountain of youth and plays at an MVP level again enough to make us a Super Bowl contender, plans change and Love is probably on the block. But as of right now, I don't think we gave up a 1st and a 4th for Love with the intention of him holding a clipboard for 4 years.
  3. I never thought that trading Yelich at some point for a king's ransom rather than extending him was a bad idea. I know some people laughed and laughed at the concept, and still do, but a contract like Yelich's is going to be crippling for a small market franchise given the amount of years if the last two years turn out to be an aberration. Building around a singular star sounds great in theory, but you can see how well it has worked for the Angels.
  4. If you guys don't like Braun's contract, you are going to really hate Yelich's in about 2026.
  5. Not the first time this year that Counsell has gotten too cute with his late substitutions and ended up with egg on his face for it later on.
  6. Anything even 1% questionable is worth a challenge in the 9th inning. You literally have nothing to lose.
  7. That started off looking nice ...then the murderers row of Vogelbach/Gamel/Arcia came up.
  8. Ok that's something...now we need someone to get ahold of one...
  9. You say this repeatedly, but then also say you can't trade him unless you get a Gavin Lux quality prospect back. What do you want Stearns to do, force a trade at gunpoint?
  10. Davies is a fine, smart pitcher, but he'll regress at some point to his career norms (which is still pretty solid). He isn't on a level stuff wise with guys like Burnes and Woodruff to form a true big 3. Agreed though, that he would look pretty good in this year's rotation, and that we are lacking anything close to a true #3. I'm wondering if it might be worth a try to piggyback Houser and Peralta as one starter with both going 3 to 4 innings and no more on the same day.
  11. There’s been too many nice compliments from Cubs recently. I find most actual Cub players/coaches to be quite classy and humble especially when compared with fixtures of the Cardinals like TDLR and Molina. It's just their fans that are hopelessly obnoxious.
  12. Yep, zero excuse for pulling Urias there. Terrible managerial decision. Urias is also a better defender than Sogard. Whether he'd admit it or not, Counsell has a soft spot for Sogard. The fact that his starts suddenly dropped off so suddenly makes me wonder if there were some strong suggestions made to him from higher levels.
  13. I can't believe anyone would want to see Sogard play everyday. At least Hiura will hit one 420 feet every so often.
  14. It wasn't long ago that we churned out position players but couldnt produce pitchers. Looking forward to seeing Burnes and Woodruff anchor this rotation for awhile.
  15. Good God Yelich. I don't expect a 1.000+ OPS every year but come on man. We're two thirds through this season.
  16. I thought he was one of the fastest guys in the majors. Ok maybe not fastest, but slightly slower than elite.
  17. Given that the original call was out, there would have to be clear evidence to overturn it. I didn't see clear evidence to overturn it. I think we've seen enough replays in the last couple years to know that what *we* see is not always necessarily consistent with what *they* see.
  18. Yeah I don't get the purpose of leaving the challenge in your pocket on those big plays once you get into the 5th/6th innings. After the 7th they'll let you look at basically anything anyway.
