Lee Smith and Harold Baines to the Hall of Fame
Baldkin replied to JimH5's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Edgar Martinez. Larry Walker. Jim Edmonds. Kenny Lofton. Andruw Jones. I just. How the hell does Baines get in? -
I mean, Ron Wolf literally wrote a book titled "The Packer Way"

Wait. Instead of a pay increase you got your vacation time cut in half?
-
Sick days are a scam and need to be gotten rid of. You get PTO. That's it. One bank of hours. Why should the be separate?
-
The cap is projected at 109M next season, the Bucks are at 86M if both Bledsoe and Middleton leave. They couldn't sign a Max FA at all.

Like the Heat's City Alternates this season:
-
I'd argue Snell is better than both of those guys. Korver is 37 and can barely guard a traffic cone these days.
-
I received my refund for my extra WS tickets I purchased, but have not received my overage from my playoff strip for games not played.

The Best Western Milwaukee-West is a 15 minute walk from the RF entrance to the stadium. You could do that already

Boston is really good, especially if Irving is hitting his outside shot. They switched everything and abused Lopez by running 1-5 pick 'n rolls and they also took advantage Bucks propensity to overhelp on penetration by setting short-side flare screens to free up a shooter 1 pass away. They are really well coached, I look forward to the Bucks getting to their level as the season goes on. Even though the Bucks had a chance to tie it in the 4th, the game never really felt that close, it was a weird one in that sense.

David Stearns must do's for the offseason
Baldkin replied to brewmann04's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Agreed unless we get a deGrom like pitcher... someone who can avg 7 innings per start and give the bullpen a sort of rest every fifth day. Should maybe amend this to 6 IP per start. 7 inning starters don't even exist anymore. Unless you get Scherzer.... MLB average was 5.4 IP/Start this season. The Brewers 7 most used starters were at 5.27. They weren't that far off. -
Have to agree. The Red Sox were the best team in baseball this year. The Brewers would have had a huge uphill climb to knock off those guys. 108 regular season wins and then pretty easily handled a 103 win team in the playoffs. My hats off to them. Just no dispute that they were MLB's best team in 2018. ...and the 100 win Yankees.

When I was in grad school I went out to some bar with five undergrads. We sat down and they immediately got out their phones and were on it the whole time. I got up, went to the bar, and made friends with the people there. I'm not even sure the undergrads realized I'd left. What's the point of going out to be on your phone when you could just as well do that at home? Phones also ruin good bar conversation. You know, especially when you talk about sports and you start to argue about who was the best or who had what stats, and it can be pretty entertaining as people remember names and numbers. But now somebody just whips out their phone, looks it all up, and that's the end of the conversation. With people who I hang out with who have a severe cell phone addiction, I make them play cell phone roulette. Everyone's phones in the middle of the table. First person to pick up their phone buys the drinks/food/whatever.

The difference between this year and last year isn't Illyasova being smart (Snell is smart too), it's the coach telling the players "Run to the corners, not the rim on the break." and telling Bledsoe and Brogdon, "Stop coming back to get the ball if you don't right away. Get to your spots." https://www.nba.com/bucks/video/wsc/teams/c0eae21c-54bc-e727-e872-566311e1bd32 that's from 2 years ago, but, 4 guys on the break, all of them run right down the middle of the court towards the rim (Terry then breaks off back to the corner, late).
-
It's not new. Really, it's not new. Shifting has been around for nearly 100 years. I'd rather the old curmudgeons focus on the things that actually are bad for the game: Time between pitches, time between balls in play and time between innings. All of which have skyrocketed in the past 20 years.
-
The inability for people to have a conversation without checking their phones constantly. Seriously.
-
They did. They started using electronic machines full time, so, instead of handing you a ticket once you paid cash (as your receipt) they had to wait for the machine to process your transaction and hand you a physical receipt. So, instead of it taking 5 seconds per car -- hand cash, change, ticket. It took 30.

He started 41 of the Brewers first 52 games and had 176 PA's. Thats well over a 500PA pace for an entire season. Despite a .364 BABIP he was only hitting .253 and slugging .357. His playing time was anything but sporadic. He forgot how to hit. Anyway, back to Schoop, I'd be surprised if they brought him back, but if they didn't, 2B will once again be filled with the likes of Orf, Sogard, Et al.
-
Maker was hurt the first two games and wasn't suited up. He suited up for the first time vs the Knicks (and Wood didn't).
-
Henson played 4 total games and 86 total minutes over the last two playoff series (just 12 minutes 2 years ago and 74 last year). I don't know what you're remembering, but it's not John Henson.

Good hustle Braun

Sad day to be a Brewers fan. People are filling out of the stadium in the 9th of an NLCS game

MY INTEREST LEVEL WILL BE 987%. WE GOT THIS. LET'S GO!

YOU KNOW WHAT I CAN'T WAIT FOR? THE BREWERS SCORING 9 MORE RUNS IN THE NEXT THREE INNINGS AND GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES.
