  1. Another Cubs pitcher gets shelved and PCA strikes out. That sounds about right.
  2. Watching Shaw go oppo is such a wonderful feeling. The dude looks like a Nico clone. Hitting 101 at its finest!
  3. Is there a world where the cost-cutting Twins would trade Pablo Lopez to us? Is there another world where we would want Buxton and the Twins would want Caissie and Alcantara? It seems to be a decent to good fit in my estimation, but the age old question, "what do I know?", instantly comes to mind. Thoughts?
  4. I do not think that they are done by any stretch. In fact, I am guessing that another starter will either be signed or traded for. This will certainly be interesting to watch unfold. Jason Ross, what say you?
  5. Best news of the day, for me. Now I have to cling to the hope that there is no qualifying offer being extended that he accepts. When your "ace" is benched in the playoffs, one must reconsider if he really has an ace. Next free agent up...
  6. Am I the only one that does not want the Cubs brass to pick up that 20 million dollar Shota option?
  7. At least we snagged super-utility bat Willie Castro at the trade deadline. What a great get that was (sarcasm noted).
  8. They might be saying the same thing about Assad. On another note, the Brewers win again.
  9. This is the mediocre, 6th starter, swingman, 4-A level Javier Assad that I have been waiting for all season, and like clockwork, the hype equals my hope. Yuck.
  10. I keep telling myself that they are using all of their baseball mojo in August and will somehow deplete that supply in September. I look at that roster with squinted eyes and I am relegated to simply tipping my cap. This streak that they are on is nothing short of amazing, especially when I see their nightly box score. Not a fan, just flabbergasted.
  11. Sandy Alcantara gets hit hard once again, and in the privacy of my own space, I uttered a sinister laugh.
  12. Are we at a place in time where we can start casting some shade on Counsell? The Brewers have been better without him; and in fairness, we seem incredibly flat and defeated with him.
  13. Is it wrong that I love seeing Gore and Alcantara getting lit up post trade deadline? I cannot be the only one on this island, right?
  14. When Willi Castro is your 5-hitter, you might have a problem.
  15. If the velo drop was unintentional, we might have just found the culprit.
  16. 20 minutes and Alcantara and Cabrera are still out there. Race to the finish...
  17. There's the Rea replacement #5; next up is the #1 or #2 playoff horse. I like this get.
  18. I have to wonder if Pressly is thinking about / worried about getting "Flexen"ed. Is it possible that Pressly is being considered for a DFA or a throw-in on a trade?
  19. Do the Brewers have any pitchers that throw under 95 mph? Asking this question as images of Chris Flexen flash in my mind.
  20. I'm a hard pass on this, unless someone can change my mind.
  21. Why am I remembering Hodge with more velo? At this point, he's a taller version of Ethan Roberts. To Iowa he goes!
