  1. Wily could not give up a single earned run until next April and not win another game. It's such an outdated and worthless stat that I don't see the value in being called a 20-game winner. As others have pointed out, it takes a team to win a game (bullpen, run support, etc) that I'm not sure why MLB even needs to declare a winning/losing pitcher along with the save stat. Pitchers get wins for giving up 7 runs and get losses for not giving up a single earned run. It's not really indicative of anything other than the team performed well in games that they started, so then why bother naming a winning and losing pitcher? Wily has been very valuable for the Brewers in 2014 whether he is called a 22-game winner or 8-game winner.
  2. For 2015...is there any possible way Nelson Cruz could be signed and play first base? I know the masses here poo-poo position changes from the OF to the IF. The FA crop for 2015 looks bleak. Cruz might be one of the more pricier Free Agents. but possibly an option to replace the payroll of the departed Aramis Ramirez. Then look to free agency at 3B to replace the payroll of the departed Weeks?
  3. This. I cannot fathom complaining about Ryan Braun's extension when he maxes out around 19M, IIRC. We got him extremely cheap relative to his production for so many years. Even if he declines to the point of Pujols or Ryan Howard, we still aren't talking $30M. I'm hoping when Braun does start to decline, someone from the Lara and Co. are ready to be our next superstar and we can avoid these big money deals to older talent.
  4. I think he is just hurt and therefore not pitching well.
  5. 42. STL was on 44, Pitt was on 43. Gained 1 on Pitt and 2 on STL
  6. I am on business in Chicago on Wed and am thinking of going to the game. Staying in the west burbs...better to drive and find parking or mass transit?
  7. I reckon the Dodgers bats are due to come alive today. It just feels like the short end of a 8-2 type game today.
  8. [attachment=0]48.jpg[/attachment]
  9. 50 pages later and I reckon that 1st base in 2014 was done decided in March and it's probably time to spin off a 2015 thread.
  10. I bet it's Estrada again. DM and RRR won't be able to help themselves.
  11. Just curious how you see NYY making up 10 games on LAA to host that Wild Card game as the WC1? Schedule? Pitching matchups?
  12. A little moisture was good for our Wang?
  13. Nyjer Morgan was released by the Indians today and is a free agent. http://www.letsgotribe.com/2014/8/5/5972227/nyjer-morgan-released-josh-tomlin-called-up-indians-news Any interest in brining him in as a 5th outfielder in September...if nothing else to piss off the Cardinals? Baseball sure was entertaining back then and has one of the brighter moments in Brewers playoff history.
  14. I was shocked Ramirez didn't score on Lucroy's hit that bounded off the wall that far? Was he standing on 1st waiting to tag up on the catch or ONLY halfway between 1st and 2nd thinking the CF would double him off on an acrobatic catch and throw if he were any farther? Good Grief.
  15. Milwaukee is 19th in strikeouts--below average! How about K's on balls out of the zone? Is there a stat for that?
  16. Is it me or do we lead the league in K's on offense? Feels like our hitters think they face Cy Young on a daily basis.
  17. The way the team has played as of late really has helped make up peoples mind that this team isn't for real, that they just happened to get hot for a month or so. I'm in agreement on that. They were 13 over in April and have played under .500 the rest of the way.
  18. Playoff Series? Why?
  19. Lohse is still in the game. No it's not, fyi. You're right, he's the mother-lovin MVP tonight. What a performance!
  20. Pitcher gets tired of not throwing strikes...has to fire a meatball and Scooter makes him pay!
  21. Good Grief. Lucroy gets ahead 2-1, then gently rolls one back to the pitcher on what seemed like ball 3 off the outside.
