    Yep, and if it happens again this year they'll be saying the same thing for 2015.

    When the fans threw stuff on the field after the infield fly.

    If you look at the ballot that Deadspin put in, it's better than 95% (being generous) of the ballots the other half-wits of the BBWAA put out.

    Do you have any evidence of this, or are you just speculating, hoping your boy comes back? You sound a little sure of yourself... It's speculation he tries to pass off as fact.

    Why waste time signing a backup outfielder when that's one of the few positions we're deep at?

    Yuni for starting first baseman!

    He stunk it up in 2012 too, at least the 1st half of 2012.

    I can't believe we're even talking about this. We're not paying $20 million in addition to the $100+ million contract Tanaka is going to command.
  11. trwi7
    And the Brewers are going to pay for this contract how?

    They signed Puig to a 7/42 deal and put him in the minors.

    Colvin is an awful hitter and his 2012 season was because of Coors Field.
  14. trwi7
    I think the uproar is that there are a bunch of awful players in there and honoring them is ridiculous. I have no problem with guys like Burnitz, Briggs, Cirillo and Seitzer for example because they were actually good players with the Brewers. I do have a problem with guys like Listach, Vina and Moore being on there because they weren't good.

    The Sprint commercial with James Earl Jones and Malcolm McDowell impersonating teenage girls is amazing. I laugh every time I see it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRibRj770J8

    Choo is a superior hitter and Gomez is a superior defender. [sarcasm]And it's not like team situation has anything to do with people thinking Gomez should be traded.[/sarcasm]
  17. trwi7
    [sarcasm]And we were all just thrilled about that.[/sarcasm]

    Yes but they'll get one back when Cruz signs elsewhere.

    I never thought he was legitimate in the first place, even with his big year in Huntsville. I'd still prefer him over Young and pretty much every other option though.

    Since Weeks would be on the roster, they would have to pay a replacement a minimum of $500K meaning there are no savings.
  22. trwi7
    You're really overrating Michael Young at this point. He's at best on par with a Morris/Halton platoon but likely worse.

    The saddest Wall of Honor in professional sports.
  24. trwi7
    Chavez re-signed with the Diamondbacks.
  25. trwi7
    I'm not a huge fan of Halton but as a right handed platoon bat, he's fine and just as good as Michael Young at this point while also being younger and cheaper. We are once again going after a name instead of looking at the player objectively for what he is now and we're going to pay more to get that player than if we would just look at what we have now. It doesn't make sense now and it never will. Francisco vs RHP - .252/.312/.464/.776 Halton vs LHP (minors) - .292/.379/.464/.843 That's better production offensively than we're going to get from Young. It's likely cheaper than Young. The defense will probably suck, especially with Francisco but Young sucks on defense too, so it's not like we would gain anything by signing Young. They're once again focusing on the biggest achilles heel of the team from the previous year (1B), just like the bullpen from 2012 and getting tunnel vision by focusing on that, even if they have other areas they could improve and even if they have players who could produce just as well as the players they're looking at to replace them. It's madness, it's annoying and it's frustrating to watch as a fan.
