Did the Brewers make any more awesome moves? I see the Cubs won again. So much for Milwaukee running away with the division.
The Brewers GM is a so called Analytical Wizard… players playing out of position. Top pitching prospects with the exception of Peralta pitching in the bullpen. They will get the wild card but won’t advance very far after that… not with the shotty defense their rolling out
Manfred should force the Nats to trade Scherzer.
Oh man….. You’re too easy
Workman can’t catch a break. That extra option Boston picked up on him over the winter and he’s become the new Hembree the last 2 seasons as the see-saw man back and forth between the Sox and Pawtucket, just like Hembree was until out of options tho neither deserved it.
3/4 of the MLB teams could use Workman, but back to Pawtucket he goes. Last year tho as the zig-zag man. Who’s next? Brasier? Velazquez during 2019?
Watched a few of Red Sox games against Birds. Still don’t like the bullpen. Workman and Hembree put runners on. They were lucky yesterday. Bullpen is their Achilles heel.
Bring back the Steamer or the Spaceman
Glad to see the Pads are going to try Myers at 3b. Been hoping they would do this for a while to keep the good defensive outfield intact as well as keeping Myers bat in the lineup.
