  1. That's what I've been saying for a long time. Jenkins/Mench platoon. Trade Clark even if you have to pay some of his salary and even if you don't get a lot in return. Outfield: LF: Jenkins/Mench CF: Hall RF: Hart Bench: Gross/Jenkins/Mench Outfield problem solved.
  2. Yes but look at values of the players as of now. Baldelli- injury concerns Ensberg- coming off a "down year" Lidge- coming off a "down year" Turnbow- almost no value right now, the only thing going for him is he throws hard Hall- coming off a great year, .899 OPS and 35 homers Villanueva- in his limited time in the majors e showed great potential, still very young When looking at the value as of now the Brewers should be able to get more than this imo.
  3. And they could easily not outhit him. Here's some things that I look at. 1. Are we getting younger talent back? No, Baldelli is still only 25 but Lidge is 30 and Ensberg is 31. Hall just turned 27, Turnbow will turn 29 in about a week and Villanueva just turned 23. 2. Are we getting cheaper talent back? No, Ensberg and Lidge will cost more than Turnbow and Hall and Villanueva will be cheaper than Baldelli. 3. Are we getting better talent back? No at least not in my opinion. Hall is a very good player, better than both Baldelli and Ensberg, at least imo. Turnbow and Lidge is basically a wash and I'd much rather keep a young pitcher who showed a lot of promise last year. 4. How long before these players reach free agency? After 2008: Lidge and Ensberg After 2009: Hall; possibly Baldelli if option is declined, if not then 2011 Villanueva is a free agent after 2011 I believe. So basically we get older, more expensive, less talented and won't get to keep them as long.
  4. So it's Hall and Villanueva for Lidge, Ensberg and Baldelli? I'll pass on that.
  5. Not sure I like giving up CV and Gross for a free agent to be.
  6. I really hope we get something decent for Jenkins if we trade him. I don't want to trade him just to clear his salary. Be patient Melvin shop him around and let other teams bid for him.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  7. I like Rios and all but wow. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/roll.gif http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/roll.gif http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/roll.gif http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/roll.gif
  8. Who here is a member of Manatee nation?http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  9. Watching Mench in the outfield in a Brewers uniform for even 1 inning will make me sad. Keep Jenkins.
  10. Aren't we talking about adding Suppan to get more depth? This would just take it away again.
  11. I believe it goes something like this. There's no such thing as a stupid question just stupid people.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif And Zito won't even think about coming here. He's either staying on the west coast, going to New York or getting a ton of money from Texas. I believe he has a 6 year $102 million offer so 4/65 wouldn't even be close.
  12. I hate frogetting things.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  13. The weather, it's always talked about. Even in Southern California.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  14. I believe he is signed through 2008 with a club option for 2009. He's also going to cost us some useful players.
  15. I thought Toronto was looking for pitching when trading Rios. I like that offer too but we need to send a pitcher their way.
  16. Link doesn't work for me.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif
  17. I would hope so. 3 years $47 million got it done for Schmidt who imo is a much better pitcher than Suppan. I may go 4/50 though since we will most likely have to overpay to get him here.
  18. If Brewers management is worried how Sheets feels if he gets paid less than Suppan and if that is a reason that they may decide not to pursue him then I have a HUGE problem with Brewers management.
  19. I don't know if this has been posted since I haven't read the last couple pages. Link
  20. Didn't Roberts choose SF over Milwaukee because he didn't want to move too far and because Bochy is now managing the Giants?
  21. Taveras bats right handed.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  22. Didn't the Braves non tender Giles?
  23. Charlie V plays baseball? That must be why he didn't play against the T'Wolves last night.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
