Right, I've adapted. You haven't gotten some of the PMs that many members have from him, sorry but that will always stick. You can't undo a lot of what he did.
I dont see why Brewers dont trade for a starter if they wanna take this season seriously

Cards need more youth in pen
I do it for You too, KJ.
And I do it to anyone who derails a thread and goes in their own direction at their choice, it’s nothing personal.
It’s just I have the 99% of the people who read the site’s interest in mind and they don’t give a flying fuck over 2 dudes who want to play slapass with words over a message board.
So I’m an equal opportunity dickhead, just for the record.
Anyone think Harper or deGrom will get traded?
Anything is possible!

Think we signed Jack Morris today after his speech

Was he guy who came from Yankees? My brother mentioned to me at dinner we traded for some crap the Yankees didn’t use in their pen. But guess we needed a lefty reliever since we got rid of Lyons and dl’ed cecil. Dunno what role Gomber gonna have at this point??
Totally pointless to acquire a crap lefty when we have Gomber !

Voice of Reason
Yea I agree, unless I suppose they plan on Gomber either being a starter or just not a guy who comes in to get a lefty out (left handed specialist I suppose the job description I’m looking for), and more a multiple inning mid inning reliever which prob makes more sense.

My brother just text me and said cards traded Pham to Tampa for essentially a bag of used baseballs. That is awesome, guess that secures Fowler’s status as starter for length of contract! Lol. Of and guess it also makes Bader our full time center fielder which just great considering he basically a crappier version of Randal grichuk at the plate!! Lol
Don‘t forget O‘Neil. I mean Pham is older and so inconsistent. Nothing special long-term. But yea I can‘t wait for Fowler to go

Yea I’d like for it to make room for O’Neal but don’t see them playing him in center. Pham incredibly special compared to Bader imo.
Pham one of only cards with heart, not something they could afford to lose imo.

Corbin Burnes is better than any starter on the market. Now the Brewers just have to do the right thing and put him in the rotation. Makes much more sense than trading for Harvey or wasting good prospects to get the overrated Archer.
Wow Dozier to Dodgers
Archer to Pitt. Talk about a wild card candidate if Archer lines up to hype
Phillies get Wilson Ramos. A catcher who can hit for them!
Braves got Duvall and Gausman.
Schoop to Brewers
Man Balty cleaning house lol

With the NL as open as it is I like the brewers as buyers

Pretty much a regular
Rotation is garbage and gotta imagine that D is going to be atrocious with Schoop and Shaw up the middle.
Never in doubt that Harper stays in Wash. Nobody would buy a ticket to another game lol. Trade talk by ESPN was mere sensationalism

At least they tried to do something as odd as the pieces fit. My squad getting closer and closer to being cellar dwellers in central than up near the top!! lol

Guess at the end of the day I'm ok with Snakes moves, think they got 4 in all and Escobar a nice add to the lineup...not sure about the bullpen guys though. The guy from Tampa was getting drilled last night, Diekman from the Rangers I'm not familiar with but the WHIP is a bit high for a lefty, at least Ziegler coming back is a good thing, know what we get from him. Sinking submarine seems to do well here.

As they’re currently playing, maybe. Wouldn’t use ‘way’ in any shape. Depends on if Cubs get healthy or not, but think Dodgers/Cubs third straight NLCS matchup should be the easy favorite.

Everyone keeps saying that the rotation is garbage but it hasn't been that bad at all. They also have Burnes and Woodruff to put in the rotation which is a better option than trading something like Burnes and Hiura for Archer.
Arcia is still going to play most of the games at short. One of Shaw, Moustakas, and Schoop will just have to sit but the Brewers badly needed a righthanded bat to balance the lineup. I would feel better if we just made this move and not the Moustakas one but Stearns knows what he is doing and I will trust him.

Ortiz was probably the 4th or 5th best Brewers pitching prospect in AA or higher despite his relatively high rankings. Carmona is the guy the Brewers may end regretting putting in this deal but they just drafted Turang who is the future at shortstop.

I only used “way” cause I’m a cubs hater, lol. I would def favor doyers tho. Actually think whoever gets in between zona or Rockies have a very good chance to take nl this year.

Stearns will get a lot of criticism from the national media who know nothing about this team just as he did when he didn't spend big money on Darvish and Arrieta in the offseason and just signed Chacin who has been terrific. David Stearns knows what he is doing.

I mean it a odd fit w moose, schoop, and Shaw but when my team trading guys for bags of balls I’m not gonna beat up a team trying to do something. Damn sure don’t think Matt Harvey would have helped their chances all that much like the bobble heads wanted them to do. As much as pit gave up for archer can’t blame them for not beating that offer. Sometimes when everyone zigs you should zag and they didn’t pay shit for schoop, I’d kill for cards to have gotten him for less than they traded for used baseballs.

I figure they made the moose move figuring that they might not be able to pull off this one today. Smart to still make this move once it was there,, schoop young and potential beast.

Yeah I really didn't want them to or figured they even could do much. Team is fairly well constructed for the market, assume the move for Escobar means Lamb's injury isn't the 10-day DL type. Kinda loaded with versatile infielders now, adding three arms to a pen that has been very good, not sure the necessity for all that but I'm guessing it will work itself out.
