I think the only reason he's DHing is because he hasn't been cleared to throw yet and they want to give him some AB's. -
Interesting that they're going to be stretching Dillard out as a starter.

6:25 remaining until the Badgers reach the WCHA Final Five. Currently leading Minnesota State-Mankato 3-1.

Or his five rebounds and five assists. You know, same thing.

Can't freakin' stand that song.

What does the salary cap have to do with anything? Redd is paid the maximum you can be paid. Only the top players in the game (the Wade's and LeBrons' and Kobe's and Paul's and Howard's) should make that kind of money. Now if there was no salary cap and those players I just listed were making $30 million a year, then Redd would be fine making $17 million a year. However, since those players are making roughly the same as Redd, Redd's contract becomes a major problem for what he brings to the table.
-
If he was making $10 million maybe. The guy is on a max contract and all he does is score. Would you pay the max to a player like Redd? Teams just aren't going to completely screw up their salary structure for a one dimensional, non all-star wing. That's how the Bucks build their teams though. Two non all-star wings taking up over half the salary cap. Not exactly going to win you a ton of games.
-
All Redd does is score. These guys have at least two things they do, whether that be scoring and rebounding, scoring and passing, scoring and defending, some do more than two, some only do two, but all of those players do at least one more thing than Redd.
-
Fine. Joe Johnson Josh Smith Al Horford Ray Allen Paul Pierce Kevin Garnett Emeka Okafor Gerald Wallace LeBron James Dirk Nowitzki Josh Howard Jason Kidd Chauncey Billups Carmelo Anthony Rip Hamilton Tayshaun Prince Andris Biedrins Yao Ming Kobe Bryant Pau Gasol Andrew Bynum Dwyane Wade Andrew Bogut Al Jefferson Vince Carter Devin Harris Chris Paul David West Kevin Durant Jameer Nelson Dwight Howard Andre Iguodala Amare Stoudemire Steve Nash Brandon Roy Kevin Martin Tony Parker Manu Ginobili Tim Duncan Chris Bosh Deron Williams Carlos Boozer Paul Millsap Caron Butler So that would put Redd at 45 and then you add guys like Greg Oden, Russell Westbrook, O.J. Mayo etc. who could end up being better than him in a year or two and he isn't close to top 20. Top 40-50 is right with Redd. And you need a superstar or at least two all-stars to contend. We have neither.
-
Again, if Redd was top 20, we wouldn't have been so awful. Wade is leading a bunch of nobody's and over-the-hill players to a winning record. You need either a superstar player (a LeBron or Kobe or Paul or Wade) or a few all-star caliber players to win in the NBA. Redd is a one time all-star, I don't know how many all-star games Jefferson has played in, but neither were all-star caliber players this year. The best player on the Bucks is Bogut, easily.
-
If Redd was a top 20 player, our records wouldn't have been so abysmal the past few years. Great players make their teams better. LeBron led a bunch of scrubs to the finals. Redd has led us to a .500 record a couple times. Redd is more like a top 50 player. Maybe.
-
It's accurate in the sense of giving the score and the play that happened. It's not accurate in terms of pitch counts.
-
Truly one of the all-time greats.
-
Any Brewers all-time list that doesn't have Brooks Kieschnick as a PH/RHP is not a list in my opinion.
-
Wow. This umpire is awful. First he calls a swing on Duffy that wasn't even close and then he calls a high strike for a strikeout. What an ass.
-
Weeks struck out. Two of the pitches were balls though and Duffy grounded out slowly to second.
-
Zambrano got a huge strike zone on Weeks. Hardy with a triple as Soriano runs in the stands.
-
Fielder has definitely lost weight.
-
Anybody know why Uecker isn't announcing today? It's Provus and Schroeder on the radio.
-
Rick Sutcliffe is brutal. He wonders if Derek Jeter going to the opposite field during batting practice had anything to do with McCann getting that RBI. What the hell?
-
Jason Bay playing CF. That should be pretty interesting and hilarious.
-
Wow. Huge double play to get out of the inning. Netherlands still leads.
-
Learn something new everyday. I had no idea Tomo Ohka was in the Cleveland organization.
-
I'm surprised it's been 2006. I would've thought longer. Our horrendous offensive scheme is not conducive to scoring. It usually takes a power play or a stupid mistake by the opponent for us to get goals. And since penalties are rarely called in OT and teams are more cautious about not making mistakes that lead to odd man rushes, it's not surprising that the Badgers don't score.
