  1. Velcro wallet with this logo that I got out of a claw machine at Walmart. I win best first wallet.
  2. Doing this on twitter is called a Seth Abramson.
  3. There's really no point in bringing him back, especially in July. He's not going to want to go to the minors but we're not going to want to throw him in against major league pitchers after not seeing live pitching in almost a year. Plus, old, injured, no defensive value.
  4. Lauer is Lauering
  5. And if they were, it wouldn't be as a pure salary dump. Outside of one tough year (where he was still a 1.5 WAR player), he's consistently been a 3-5 WAR player for several years. It's not like Seattle is swimming in bad contracts and a ton of salary that they need to just get rid of a good player for nothing just to free up money.
  6. Haudricourt probably thinks the players get paid in JuJu Coins.
  7. In 2017 between AA and AAA he hit .315/.352/.498 and only fanned 71 times in 522 PA He followed that up with .297/.328/.527 in the big leagues with only 97 K's in over 600 PA You basically just proved my point, so...thanks?

  9. So Bob Scanlan is a reporter for the Padres. my brother was 8-9 when he first played with the Brewers and I was 6-8. I don't even know why but my brother hated Bob Scanlan.

  11. Padres announcer talking about the Brewers with Vogelbach batting. "Love the city, love the fans and this guy's on my softball team."

  13. TJ is no more of a threat for Gore than it is for Hader. Using it as a reason to say you wouldn't trade Hader+ for him is ridiculous.

  15. If you don't like the name change, you can take your mind off of it with this.
  16. Red Sox and Twins are right by the airport in Fort Myers. Red Sox more so, just a few hundred feet away across a tree line and a highway. A few hotels a couple miles West of the airport/stadium.
  17. They absolutely do. I guess I should say they absolutely do as long as we're not dead set on getting MLB help immediately.
  18. I hope you're not expecting autographs or anything because players aren't even allowed to hang out in lobbies or meet with anyone outside the travelling party other than family members. [sarcasm]If I've learned anything during the pandemic, it's that pro athletes always only do what they're allowed to do.[/sarcasm] I mean, they obviously don't but are they going to risk fine/suspension/quarantine to sign an autograph? You probably come off as a dick if you say no or just blow someone off but I'd rather do that than have any of the alternatives suggested above.

  20. Probably autocorrect from Vogelbach.
  21. Big scoop by Rosenthal!
  22. I'd call that bluff if I'm negotiating. Chances of the Brewers taking the chance on paying a reliever around $20 million, even for one season is extremely remote imo. Yet it would be a guarantee any top 20 market gives that QO to Hader. So we should just give Hader to LA take one top 100prospect and then watch 4 drafts from now LA draft a new top 100 prospect (since that's all they churn out these days) Lose lose small market. First, we're way too far out to know what any team would do. Hader could get hurt or regress by free agency in which case no team is offering him the QO. Second, even if he did pitch great all the way through to free agency there might be like 3 or 4 teams that would be willing to spend $20 million on a reliever and if they did I think it's likely that Hader would accept in which case he wouldn't be able to be offered the QO again and therefore give the team no compensation unless they traded him.

  24. I don't see the problem with anything in there. In fact, isn't this what everyone here is saying?
  25. They added two pretty good relievers this offseason in Kela and Melancon so I'm not really sure what you're talking about. They have a good, not great bullpen. I wasn’t implying them having a poor bullpen in any way. I just meant if you’re handing out a $300 million contract, bringing in multiple starting pitchers, signed the most coveted international player in Kim, as well as signing a couple quality bullpen arms, why wouldn’t they go all in and get the most feared and dominant relief pitcher in the game too? I think it's funny that you listed a ton of things they did this offseason and don't consider that all in. They traded for the NL Cy Young runner-up, traded for the 2018 AL Cy Young winner, signed the best international free agent, signed their young star for basically his whole career, signed a couple quality bullpen arms, traded for a #4ish starting pitcher but when are they actually going to get serious and go all in? If that's not going all in, I don't really know what is.
