    He needs to actually start hitting in the minors a little bit before he is even remotely considered as any kind of option as a starting 3B at this level.

    Really nice defensive play by Hiura.

    Gamel is worth next to nothing in trade. You don't get the luxury of picking and choosing what you might want if you dealt him. The only reason to deal him is if you think his roster spot is best used on someone else.

    Top 4 would be good just to get the tourney double bye. Ideally top 3 to avoid Maryland til the final.

    Nice win. I can't understand how the 6ers are such a bad road team. I mean usually there is some home/road split but for a team to be a world beater at home and a complete albatross on the road is just hard to figure out.

    The self-proclaimed "best player in the world" is a robust 3 for 15 tonight.

    Every part of Giannis' game just keeps getting better and better..........except free throw shooting.
  8. adambr2
    Yeah it's been a pretty poorly officiated game. The goaltend on Brook was crap.
  9. adambr2
    Though a mediocre division, this would make for one heck of an exciting race and tiebreaker games at the end of the season.
  10. adambr2
    Simmons already ruled out now Tobias comes up gimpy.
  11. adambr2
    Not sure why Giannis is spending so much time on the bench today. He's not in foul trouble and has sat half of the game so far. Giving up too many boards and second chance points, otherwise we're winning this running away right now. Obviously, Giannis would help with that.
  12. adambr2
    For sure he was. If he can keep that performance level, it will be well worth it. But his career norms from year to year indicate some regression from 2019 is likely.
  13. adambr2
    Well, we've been paying top kicker money for an average kicker for the last 8 years. No reason to stop now.

    It's hard for me to believe why anyone in the state of Wisconsin who is even remotely into Wisconsin sports would have Dish Network at this point. How could they not know how much damage that losing regional sports would do?

    Maybe they can go back to their Enron Field name for awhile to divert attention from their sign stealing scandal.

    This, my friend, is called "enjoying the ride". I agree that the last four pages have been brutal to read. I guess I just don't understand the last couple comments saying that. First, no one here is being forced to read things that they don't want to. Saying something like this accomplishes nothing but crapping on anyone who has been involved in any discussion over the referenced amount of time or pages. There's a lot of Bucks related discussion to partake in with this team. The future of Giannis is one. The future of Coach Bud is another. Whether or not the Bucks can attract star free agents is another. I guess, to me, as long as those Bucks discussions are healthy and debated respectfully, what's the harm? Not every post needs to be a lovefest about how awesome the Bucks are. We all know that they are. Just my opinion and two cents on it, I guess. I think everyone is enjoying the ride. I agree it gets to be a little old when people are ripping on a 47-8 team and saying they're lost and they're going to lose in the playoffs because they can't defend the 3 and so on, but there really hasn't been any of that going on lately.
  17. adambr2
    Philly does scare me a bit. I agree their fans suck, but they took Toronto further than we did last year. I think we did learn last year that depth in the playoffs really isn't that important in comparison to having a star who can take over. I don't know if Embiid is that guy or not. He is supposed to be. The first round will be a glorified bye, but the 2nd and 3rd round will likely be Philly followed by Toronto. We're 47-8 for a reason, we have the best shot. But it's still not going to be easy to get out of the East.

    That's a huge benefit on the ability to legitimately share YouTube TV accounts. With streaming services starting to rival cable/satellite in terms of cost, sharing is the only way people are going to be able to stay ahead of the game.
  19. adambr2
    Because it's Milwaukee. It's cold and it's boring. At least that is the perception. There's just nothing here to attract guys like that. Now, we win a couple titles and Giannis signs an extension here, maybe that changes. Sometimes establishing a winning culture will be enough for some guys to want to come here.

    Good thing we can always count on you to send things in a more positive direction by coming in and talking down to everyone.
  21. adambr2
    Broxton isn't on the 40 man, Gamel is. I don't think they are going to jettison anyone further off the 40 just to be able to roster Broxton unless they really start taking injuries to their OF depth.
  22. adambr2
    Locks: OF Yelich OF Cain OF/1B Braun OF Garcia 1B Smoak 2B Hiura IF Sogard IF Gyorko IF/OF Holt SS Arcia C Pina C Narvaez P Woodruff P Lindblom P Lauer P Anderson P Houser P Hader P Suter P Claudio P Phelps Likely: OF Gamel P Wahl P Black P Peralta That's 20 guys I would consider locks or near locks, along with 4 likely rostered guys. That only leaves one position player spot and one pitcher spot open in spring training. Healy? Burnes? Feyereisen? Yardley? Perdomo? Healy is probably my last position player in with Devin Williams being my last pitcher in, with all the locks and likely making the 26 man. Room will have to be made soon for Urias and Knebel.
  23. adambr2
    I don't think it's impossible, but I think it's really unlikely. You're asking for a whole lot to go right to even come close to that. I'm a big believer in Burnes, but there's a lot of middle ground in performance between how bad he was last year and suddenly being an ace, and he's far more likely to be in that middle ground. I'm not sure Burnes will even be on the MLB roster for a big part of the year. They've got to get him back to a place where he's just confident in himself and his arm again before they can even think of dreaming on that arm.

    I think most people are viewing it exactly as that ... a non-issue. Not Hader and not the Brewers GM, IMO. The idea of going to arby three times with him in the future likely brings about a long term deal or trade. Look, this thing just isn't this big deal that you're making it out to be. Numerous guys go to arbitration hearings every year. They all wanted to win their hearings. Most aren't as highly publicized as this because they're not Josh Hader. Could you name a single guy who lost a hearing last year, without looking it up? Probably not, because in almost every instance it's a total non-issue and doesn't lead to a departure or broken relationship. Josh Hader might be traded at some point. He might be signed to a multi-year contract, or one year contract to avoid arbitration next year or the next couple years or more. Or he might go to arbitration again. None of those outcomes would be surprising.
