  1. I don't think anyone is trying to say he has nothing to prove at AAA. I used this analogy in the Hadley/Bartlett thread... I would like to compare it to you have $1. You can risk that dollar and either receive $50 (Green plays well overall), $10 (Green improves defense at third but hits similar to McGehee) or $0 (Green falters). Who wouldn't take that opportunity, you are out a dollar at the worst. McGehee has been awful and isn't even a platoon option with his splits vs. lefties. Melvin just seems stubborn to me when it comes to admitting mistakes (just my opinion). I fail to see what the huge issue is being stuck in the middle of a pennant race and bringing up Green. If you replace awful with at the worst case awful you still have awful.

  19. Well, we are willing to employ (and frequently use) Mark Kotsay. So there is a fresh dose of insanity active in the Brewer organization. However, I totally agree with you. Bring up Green, focus on replacing Yuni. It's not like we expect Green to turn in a .900 OPS in Milwaukee. Not even .800. But his defense is better than McGehee's and he certainly has a good chance to outhit him. Why spend rare currency (in this case prospects) when you have an option at AAA? Sure it's riskier, but you can't keep trading our best prospects. PS - I love Headley. I think it would take a lot to get him. But a lot more than what people are suggesting. To be honest I don't even feel like it's riskier at this point. I would like to compare it to you have $1. You can risk that dollar and either receive $50 (Green plays well overall), $10 (Green improves defense at third but hits similar to McGehee) or $0 (Green falters).

  20. Doesn't seem like it. I don't know why his name barely ever gets mentioned. I've heard the morning guys on WSSP mention him occasionally, but that seems to be about it.To be honest WSSP doesn't seem to have a lot of knowledge on the system outside a guy like Gamel. It is very frustrating not hearing the right questions get asked sometimes. Then on a note regarding Melvin. I truly believe Doug Melvin's biggest issue sometimes is trying to prove everyone that he was right in the long run, rather than accepting maybe he was wrong and moving in a different direction.
