    Just not sure Theo is interested in big money for a closer. Really think they plan to have CJ in that spot next season. L they play the same position, so carl will still be in carl's spot he traded big assets for short term control of 2 different relievers recently. if he values elite relievers that much, i'd think any unease from a longer term version would be outweighed by the abundance of current payroll flexibility and a desperate need for pitching in the organization. also, i'm sure theo knows that trading a valuable asset for a dominant relief rental each season is not a long-term strategy.

    3000 hits is still an extraordinary milestone. I mean, Joey Votto only just hit 1500. yeah but he's on like a 5,700 hit pace with an average walk rate

    based on what information we have as fans, i am firmly on team NO TRADE. i think our situation makes signing him this offseason a necessity, and i wouldn't want to potentially reduce the chances of that happening. also, this may be trivial, but i'd worry about another team doing to him what we did to chapman for a month.

    every other game thread is destined to end with BDB mashing his doom boner while duke admirably continues believing there is no difference between "the brewers suck" and "the brewers have a good chance of returning to suck at some point"

    What did you get for him? Wade Boggs and a side of rice pilaf i thought i was the only person to still reference this does anybody remember that sandberg "chance? not a chance" commercial? i was talking about it with somebody and we couldn't remember or find out what the commercial was for. a hardware store or something?

    i'm watching the brewers bat and hoping that they don't increase their 4-0 lead in a game that would put them 5.5 games up on the cubs. can i get another shot at life please

    To get meatbally for a second, his body language is pretty piss poor for someone is in theory the most respected veteran on the team. i find it really hard to blame him for that, especially considering how much we know he wants to win

    If they happen to win the division, they can be crappy and still win it all. David taught me that. who said they were incapable of winning the world series? you were annoyed that people continued to write off the brewers for so long, so now you're just taking it to the other extreme by pretending they're great.

    they're on fire right now and they might win a crappy division, but they're just kind of okay and seem to be catching lightning in a bottle with a lot of guys

    my opinion on the verlander idea depends entirely on theo's opinion of the idea
  21. 17 Seconds
    theo can just show them his cubs ring and tell them to build around young hitting like cool dudes

    First time I've really thought that it was unlikely the Cubs would be in the playoffs. Up until now it was they'll get it together eventually, but we're at a point where we pretty much are what we are unless something big happens. no way man, i had my childish outburst and now i've talked myself into optimism again
