As far as things I'm worried about for these CBA negotiations, the 2028 Olympics is damn near the bottom of the list.

@PhilALarsen @LDS_Dems "Uniform" means you wear the same thing. Your second photo is 4 guys wearing completely different things...
English
@LDS_Dems ICE agents do drive marked cars and wear uniforms.
Why do they cover their faces?
Because if they don’t, they and their family will get doxxed, harassed, and assaulted by left-wing agitators.
English
I'm just saying, I don't think it is too much to ask immigration enforcement to drive marked cars, where a uniform and uncover their faces like literally every other law enforcement agency in the country.

Now that it's 2 months later and his AAA SLG is .291, is it possible to revisit this without Red Sox fans jumping down my throat?
Baseball's Not Dead@dead_baseball
Is Kristian Campbell cooked? Red Sox gave him that big extension last year, currently have the second worst offense in the AL, and Campbell is still in the minors. Never seen such a quick swing from "this guy is our future" to "he's fringe at best."
English
@WattzThoughts @cottoninnymugs There's shortstops that converted to catcher. BJ Surhoff is an example.
English
@cottoninnymugs @dead_baseball You know how teams in Little League would always play their best players at SS? It’s the same case here. They’re there because they’re good, and it means they have the ability to play likely anywhere else outside of C and maybe CF
English
This is the 3rd high school shortstop from Corona, California in the last 9 years the Brewers drafted with their first pick.
English
@jodiecongirl @AgainstWeaves "another $7500 for roth"
Yeah, that's not true. You can max out 401K and then max out your IRA, but you cannot do $7,500 for a traditional IRA and then put in $7,500 for a Roth IRA in the same year.
English
@AgainstWeaves another $7500 for roth but yeah, i hear you but i put this in the better than nothing category
English
ok i am unreasonably mad at this one, can we stop perpetuating the class divide by telling people who feel like 1.25MM is a crapton of money that they need a team of fee-collecting advisors rather than pointing them to the nearest index fund, an IRA, and maybe zillow

Dave Ramsey on a single mom whose late boss left her a life changing inheritance. Caller: “My boss passed away and left me $1.25 million. I was his personal assistant for eight years. I’m a single mom with four kids, and now I don’t have a job.” Dave: “Someone just handed you $1.25 million to manage that’s your new job. Don’t rush. Build your own advisory team. Find a trusted investment advisor, a CPA, a real estate professional, and an insurance expert.” He added: “You could buy a home with cash, invest the rest wisely, and create enough stability that you may never have to work again.” A sudden windfall doesn’t create lasting wealth. Careful decisions do.

@drainyou999 @JordanLoppnow Or signing Eric Brown below slot and then getting Misiorowski for more than double slot.
English
@JordanLoppnow People look at this list and don’t realize the Brewers often draft players early they can sign below slot so they can grab a high school guy like Cooper Pratt later and sign them above slot away from a college commitment.

Brewers 1st round picks last ten years:
2016 Corey Ray
2017 Keston Hiura/Tristen Lutz
2018 Brice Turang
2019 Ethan Small
2020 Garrett Mitchell
2021 Sal Frelick/Tyler Black
2022 Eric Brown
2023 Brock Wilken/Josh Knoth
2024 Braylon Payne/Blake Burke
2025 Andrew Fischer/Brady Ebel
English
@LerekDadonde @GhostCaligula @Brewers Gorman Thomas, Paul Molitor, BJ Surhoff, Gary Sheffield, and Brice Turang were all shortstops when drafted. They played a total of 179 games at SS across 78 seasons.
English
@GhostCaligula @Brewers Shortstops can play any position basically
English
Our first pick draft is in ‼️
Welcome to the Crew, Trey Ebel — brother of Brewers prospect Brady Ebel!
English
@vqs9bzmq4r Miz has a RA9 of 2.19 and RA9avg of 4.57
(4.57-2.19)/4.57=.521
52.1% better than expected.
Sanchez has a RA9 of 2.99 and RA9avg of 5.67
(5.67-2.99)/5.67=.474
47.4% better than expected.
Sanchez has 7.76% more innings, which makes up for the 4.7% better performance by Miz.
English
@vqs9bzmq4r The simplest way to look at it is to go to the value pitching section on baseball reference and compare RA9 (how many runs they give up per 9, including unearned runs) to RA9avg (what the average pitcher would be expected to give up given opponent/defense/stadiums).
English
Cooper Pratt's defense is so good he's currently got a 6.5 bWAR/162 pace despite rocking a .626 OPS.
English
I just got an e-mail on a new National Military Monument.
It's two giant LED screens in from of the Lincoln Memorial. It looks terrible...
English
@jake_schwall "you draft best on board regardless of position"
This isn't even true. You can draft under-slot in order to over-slot later picks and maximize your bonus pool. Brewers have done this a LOT in the last few years.
Netted Pratt, Letson, Adamczewski, among others.
English
I've got this a lot these last couple months:
- its MLB Draft- you draft best on board regardless of position
- farm has Hardin, Letson, Dorchies, Knoth, etc. Its not as deep as bats, but there's talent
-reason its not as deep? They've graduated how many young arms to the bigs
Jim Koerten@JimKoerten
@jake_schwall Let's focus on pitching. I can't think of any pitching prospect in the minors I'm excited about
English
Looks like April 4th will be the only date this year where both Logan Henderson and Brandon Woodruff were on the active roster for the Brewers.
English
Reddit cracks me up sometimes. Rockies literally have the worst record in the league in March/April this decade.
English
@TheKidBrewTown I'm aware. Him and Chourio are the only RHH OFers.
English
A lot of people are saying "bench Frelick" and "bench Yelich" which doesn't solve the problem.
Vaughn, Contreras, Sanchez, and Chourio are obvious starters against lefties. That leaves CF and RF as the only openings for Mitchell, Lara, Bauers, Yelich, and Frelick.
Baseball's Not Dead@dead_baseball
Looking at Lara's minor league splits this year and the fact that him and Chourio are the only RHH OFers, gotta think he's going to be an auto-start anytime the Brewers are facing a lefty. Question is which of Bauers and Mitchell is now platooned?
English
@dead_baseball Sure. Right now. You aren’t seeing the big picture though. He is highly likely to regress. This isn’t a 23yr old. He has a “back of the baseball card” to show that this is a HUGE outlier. The more ABs he gets, the more likely he crashes. Be better sir. Be smarter.

English
@EngeB_1 @Antony_Ryan22 If you want to keep Contreras in the lineup, you slide him to DH.
English
@EngeB_1 @Antony_Ryan22 You can't start Contreras behind the plate 162 games. When you need to give him a day off on defense, you do it when the Brewers face a lefty.
