  1. Looking at the talent they hired is weird. It’s like they took the B lineup from MLB Network.
  2. Wasn’t he banned from baseball? Either way, with how poorly they handled that when it happened they would be absolutely moronic to go back to him.
  3. Is there even a history of cash dump deals where teams pay considerable prospects to dump said cash? I seem to remember a few and the prospects included have always been rather unimpressive. Last one I remember is the D’Backs trading Bronson Arroyo and Touki Toussaint for some crappy utility infielder whose name I can’t remember and don’t feel like looking up.

  5. I'm just trying to understand why Seattle would trade their expensive but still serviceable 3rd baseman and a top prospect and main piece in the Paxton trade for one of our 40 man bubble relievers.

  7. I love how the Brewers must come down from their asking price to get the best haul. I mean that's A grade word salad.
  8. With this type of coherence, how could I not trust everything he has to say?
  9. The amount of cash they would likely get would likely make it not worth it and you'd be better off taking a chance at the lottery ticket.
  10. Felt like I was watching Bret Bielema coach the defense again. Not only was he playing way off but after he caught it he backed up!
  11. [sarcasm]The delay is probably them trying to get WMLW state wide before the season starts.[/sarcasm]
  12. Thanks for completely missing the point of my post.
  13. $875,000 signing bonus, $2.75 million for all 3 years. $125,000 bonus for 90, 100, 110 and 120 innings pitched. $250,000 bonus for 130, 140, 150 and 160 innings pitched and $500,000 for 170, 180 and 190 innings pitched.
  14. In 2017 the Brewers had 3 regular position players 30 or older and 2 24 or younger. Everyone else was 26 or 27 years old. We had 6 pitchers make 14 or more starts the youngest of which was 24 years old, the others were 27, 28, 29, 32 and 33. In 2018 he went and signed a 32 year old to a 5 year contract, had two more starters in their 30s and had one player under the age of 25 as a regular starter. Of the 6 players who made at least 14 starts, only one was under the age of 28(!) This includes 4 of those 6 starters being at least 30. This year 5 of our 8 regular starters were at least 30 years old and 3 of our 6 starters who started at least 17 games were over 30. Going back to our 2016 prospect list from MLB Pipeline Stearns has traded 7 of our top 10 prospects for major league help.
  15. This is way worse than the Peloton commercial and it's played constantly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xg2I3BCcTK0
  16. The Red Sox were compensated with two prospects when Theo Epstein left for the Cubs.
  17. The one where he dove into the chain line fence? If so, I agree. Yeah, finally looked for the video and found it. https://www.mlb.com/gameday/brewers-vs-reds/2010/08/30/265766#game_state=final,game_tab=videos,game=265766
  18. Cain had a catch in Cincinnati before he was traded that should've made the list.
  19. If you’re basing the deal on being reasonable because of a player’s incredible record in October but the team isn’t good enough to play in October (and the pitcher is a lot worse than when he accumulated those October stats) then signing him based on that is really stupid.
  20. Wheels spinning and going nowhere? Bingo
  21. D’Backs are the hamsters of MLB.
  22. He's already had two Tommy John surgeries. The chances he makes it as a starter for any length of time are slim to none.
