  1. You can go in, but you can only be a table for 1 hour.
  2. Spurling wasn't home grown and was too old when acquired to be on the Power 50. Barnwell made the power 50.
  3. We have prospects yes, but we don't have pitching prospects to part with. SD would want pitching back, they aren't pitching heavy in the system. Milwaukee matches up best with those teams or a team that's looking for impact bats. I just can't see SD moving Peavy for anything less than 2 pitching prospects, one of which would have to be a top 25 type player. Trading a CY pitcher for anything less would be a public relations nightmare for the club.
  4. Please keep the BBs and XBHs to a minimum Soup... the offense had a day off, they should score some runs tomorrow for you.
  5. I'd feel better if he'd K more guys... the K:BB ratio is okay, I wonder how hard he's throwing these days? I'll always root for Mike... Jones and Little Ben in the AA rotation, the first minor league team I religiously followed as my time at BF.net got started (different user name). edit. Jones pitched 7 complete, that's good to see. Sanchez is earning himself the 3B job in WI, he's been hitting well lately... Trejo just hasn't gotten on track. Wheeler has been ice cold lately, I hope he gets going again. Gindl hitless thus far, has to be a mistake in the box score, he's been too studly thus far to go hitless. Wilson goes yard again and Brewer's average is south of .230 again. Lawrie with 2 hit so far, Kemp continues to do well, I was hoping for much more out of Zarraga, he's 2 for 22 as I type this... it's still very early and he's splitting time, but I would have hoped for more, and it's tough to get a sense of his ABs on the radio. I hope to see these WI kids on Sunday.
  6. On that note the back of my primary flash drive broke off so it no longer resides on my key chain and I've washed it at least 4 times in the last 2 months. Those little things are pretty indestructible.
  7. The clubhouse dues are different, that's like when the equipment manager runs an errand for you type stuff. It supplements their salary as they aren't paid all that much. I wonder why it's so different in MLB clubhouses than the NFL? The equipment guys in the NFL are compensated pretty well, I always thought the MLB setup opens the door for questionable behavior, I wasn't surprised at all when what's his name from NY got implicated in the steroid probe.
  8. Working for me, but I hit their main page, then click listen live. edit. I have the main page bookmarked... is what I meant.
  9. Good for him, he gets a taste of the high life
  10. The first 4 batters for BC walked... some weirdness in our minor league games the last 3 days/nights.
  11. If you do the $54 they give you 12 months of Yuku Supporter, and as previously mentioned not only are you charitable in nature but you get the added bonus of addless viewing on all forums and you no longer count against BF.net's page views. It's like back to back to back jacks all rolled up in one tidy contribution.
  12. Yo might be good, but is he Anundsen good? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif Anundsen, Evan Brevard 9.0 0 0 0 1 10 0 1.44 (W, 2-2) Game Score: 96
  13. It makes more sense to add and promote someone they can then demote when Rivera is healthy. Anyone that has to clear waivers or gets thier FA outright.. not a sensible move at this point in time. Later in the season I could see it, but we're just a month in, anything can happen injury wise. I hope Salome stays in Nashville and Rottino in AA for now, Corporan seems like the obvious choice from my point of view. I doubt options will be a serious concern with Salome, either he'll make it or he won't, he's not going to bounce between MLB and AAA without a legit C in front of him blocking him.
  14. Possibly. I think it will depend more on what happens with the pitcher's below him, then maybe Holliman and Welch... we have a bunch of young starters ticketed for Helena that would likely compete well at WI, so there may be pressure to get those kids looks against some more advanced competition. If Ordorizzi gets bumped up for example, one of the WI pitchers will move up, which will move up one of the BC, pitchers... the whole chain reaction theory. Now if Braddock comes back and dominates at A+ he'll get bumped to AA, Anundsen may earn a promotion by the break, I'd have to think Rogers will spend the year at A+ getting his arm strength back regardless how well he pitches. There are some other arms at A+ who I'm pretty high on like Rivas that may push their way up. Selfishly I'd like him to get a taste of AAA, but the AAA rotation is already loaded with depth so it's not like they have a pressing need at this point in time. If one of the AAA rotation gets shuffled up to cover a DL stint there might be room but Cappy is also about a month away from live action and I'd think he'd be ticketed for Nashville. Wow after all that I guess my point is that the situation is too murky yet for any sort of definitive answer either way.
  15. battlekow is everywhere, he must be independently wealthy or some such thing. I stop bye to read and he's already been there before me and left a comment... doesn't matter where I go, he's already been there.
  16. Results have nothing to do with projectability... if Jeffress fails as a starter, he might make a reliever, his talent is immense. Cody has a much smaller margin for error, his results are impressive, but his value will diminish much quicker if he stumbles. I'm pretty confident that he'll pitch in the big leagues, but there's no way I'd say today he's a top of the rotation starter... which is where you ranked him. In the end you may be correct, but it's way too early for "I told you so" at this point in time. Because of his arm strength he's going to have to continually prove he can get the job done, not to posters here at BF.net, but to the organization, national media, etc... That's not so much as knock on Cody as it is that people have learned over time to be cautiously optimistic about soft tossing lefties. I felt the same way about him as I do Gindl, I really wanted to see what he would do at AA. The results have been encouraging, and I would love for him to have enough success and pitch enough innings this year that next year he's a viable alternative for the rotation. I think he got hosed on the pitcher of the year honor last year because I believe that award should be performance based, but winning that award doesn't equal "dominant MLB pitcher". The other players I thought deserved consideration for the award project as relievers...
  17. With the position players at the top, Cody would have to be Yo dominant to be ranked 4. We all like him, but it's very difficult to figure out where he's going to fit in.
  18. He's been as bad as Salome in the early going, at a level lower than Salome.
  19. Salome isn't likely, he's struggled out of the gate at the plate.
  20. Welch with another rough outing today, I hope May is a better month for him in the rotation or he might find himself on the outside looking in, an ERA over 10 out of nowhere. I wonder if he's okay physically. edit. When it goes for Frederickson, it goes in a hurry.
  21. I've stuck to Miller products ever since the stadium was built, I might be tacky, but I'm also loyal.
  22. Did they do anything special for Parra? Didn't his promotion come a month or so later? I'm fuzzy on the particulars there because I was so busy arguing against Linebrink being the difference maker the team needed.
  23. Wow congratulations young man... yesterday I'm in the office following all of the happenings, today I'm on the road and miss this. Lame for me, great for Anundsen. Is he projectable? Not in the Jeffress sense, but worst case he's probably a Suppan type... If he maintains his K/9 as he moves up he'll do well. edit. sometimes my grammar is just horrible.
  24. Why would we want to blow a prospect on Bailey when if he continues to struggle he could be signed as MiLB free agent or a waiver claim.
