  1. Guerra hasn't been right since he came off the DL. I wonder if there is something lingering there. He kept the gopher balls to a minimum before that DL stint, since then they've skyrocketed.
  2. I had someone else in mind...
  3. I believe they could (I don't see why they wouldn't). I'm not sure if it would burn his final option or not -- I don't think he spent the requisite 20 days in the minors this season yet to burn an option (do those 20 days have to be consecutive?)
  4. Head over to imgur.com and upload your pics there, get the link and post it here!
  5. I've been watching this intently, I grew up on the East side (parents are still there, not far from Milwaukee St/E Wash intersection). Their place is high enough that they shouldn't be at risk, but I can't help but worry a bit.
  6. Honest question, do they have a reason to make the decision before Sept 1?
  7. And this person has been here just about five weeks, so she arrived at possibly the height of the new-fiscal-year upheaval. The red flags her responses raised with me on Friday are still concerning, but I'll readily admit I wouldn't want to trade jobs with her. 15,000!! Not sure where in Madison you are exactly, but I hope you survived the massive flooding without too many issues.
  8. I loved this story. https://apnews.com/9e39a73debec4ae6b5d0a04fcc08cd28/Khris-Davis-lets-Make-A-Wish-kid-sign-jersey,-slugs-long-HR
  9. Even more on the failure of the pay to play model
  10. Clearly, what he should do is try to minimize the innings of our best relievers instead of maximizing them
  11. I read this three times, and feel like there has to be another caveat to it: "And have not yet completed their suspension" If someone were suspended 50 games, served 15 games last year and 35 this year, they would then be post season eligible.
  12. As someone who coaches IT people on the importance of words and vocabulary -- and how important it is to make our brains stop and think and try to take things people say in the best possible manner, let me try to look at this from an outsider's perspective: The human resources office in my state agency has turned over 100% since the last time I needed HR assistance. On Friday I met one of the new employees and felt like several red flags were raised in the process. So let me try to play... um... angel's advocate? This feels like she wanted to engage, realized she made a sour face and didn't know how to say, "Well, I root, root, root for the Cubbies." Seems pretty harmless. This was her response, instead of saying, "Yeah, it's a bit crazy, and it's been complete chaos." She said, "Yeah, and the new boss is way worse than the old boss." Again, comes off as someone who doesn't have a whole lot of social know-how. Again, seems to stem from a lack of ability to tone down the language. A bit more of a red flag, but still not overly horrible. All those things combined though, makes them sound like someone who is not happy with their job, and might not be long for the position.
  13. And if he gives up a home run, then Counsell is the worst manager ever because Jeffress and Hader were available.
  14. Wonder if they are thinking of starting someone other than Guerra if the game might start and stop.
  15. And we will win 10-0, because, Baseball. Baseball.
  16. Yeah, I don't feel like this is like the 2008 squad who was notorious for closing down the bars on Saturday nights before Sunday day games.
  17. Adding some more to it: The opener at San Diego: https://www.mlb.com/brewers/video/chois-clutch-pinch-hit-double/c-1898928483 The comeback from down 4 vs the Twins:
  18. Let's try some data here, the season started on March 29th, we are now 133 days into the season. Josh Hader has pitched 39 times this year (including the all star game) or an average of once every 3.4 days. He's only had 5 or more days rest between outings 4 times. But yes, clearly Counsell is mismanaging Hader, because he's been completely unsuccessful in his role.
  19. I did too; it was my one Prime Day purchase. I made Iowa Chops, then seared them in butter when they were done. They may have been the best chops I have ever made. A couple weeks ago, I attempted the snake method of smoking on my Weber kettle and I ran into a problem of it not getting hot enough. I topped out around 180 degrees (was smoking ribs) and I wanted 225-240. I may not have started with enough coals or may not have had enough coals in the snake. I'm willing to try it again but was a bit disappointed. Interesting. I haven't had that problem... did you try adjusting your vents -- adjust a tiny amount, then wait awhile. Usually a lower temperature is from not enough oxygen flowing through the kettle. Did you have 3 rows of coals on your snake? Two on the bottom, one stacked across the top of those? Was it really windy?
  20. Who's this Scoop guy everyone keeps taking about? Have we dropped a Scoop-a-loop, like Betty Boop?
  21. Bought a Sous Vide cooker and used it for the first time, kept it really simple and did 1/2 a pork loin, then cut it into chops and seared those for sammies. Came out absolutely amazing. Can't wait to try more of this.
  22. Fizer Forum. It's going to be the 41 Forum in my heart.
  23. Listen, if you start your question with, "Can Eric Kratz...?" The answer is, "YES!!!!"
  24. 4-4 ballgame I'm the bottom of the eighth, and Jeremy Jeffress has absolutely shut down the Dodgers. 1-2-... stuff happens..... OMG MOOSE. Heading to the top of the ninth.
