  1. We have played 20 games at home and 14 on the road. Good we have a cushion...
  2. I stopped watching both national and local news because I found it wasn't news, it was life presented to fit the owner of the stations agenda. A pox on both their houses! Ooops, guess this post isn't appropriate but I'll just have to live with the consequences:)
  3. So, we traded for a rental platoon player? Geez, not happy. I'd rather let Nolan sink or swim so that we can finally make a decision on him.
  4. Parra's lifetime against lefties: 236 299 305 604 ops This year, he only has 53 at bats against lefties which means that Milwaukee might have been sitting him regularly against lefties. He's 28 and having a career year, maybe something clicked for him but most probably due for a regression. I think I've made it plain about how I feel about rentals but this guy might come in and not even improve the club.
  5. Nothing in life is guaranteed. But trading a guy that could be a 2, 3 or 4 for ten years for two months of a setup guy is only something you should consider if you have a deep farm system. We don't. So, while I loved Miller last year, I say we learned our lesson and shouldn't do it again.
  6. Chen is a MOR pitcher and he's gonna get 15-20 million next year.
  7. I can't agree more. He's very young and has a bright future. You should expect the occasional like today but over the long haul, the trade looks bad right now and might turn into a disaster. Now, had we spent 40 million to retain Miller, it would look a lot better. There were those that celebrated Miller's injury in much the same way as those are celebrating ERods bad game but baseball is a marathon, not a sprint and it will take years to determine how bad the trade was.
