To be fair here, Lohse is a better pitcher than Suppan ever was. I don't expect Lohse to put up 2012 numbers ever again. Or even 2011, for that matter. 2008 numbers would be nice. I like having Lohse...

My Catholic friend yesterday was talking to me about the search for the new Pope, and I had mentioned that one of the TV's in the union at our school was showing the conclave, and I said it to him as...
This would explain the image I saw in my Twitter feed of Doug Melvin's face and mustache superimposed onto the body of Scorpion from Mortal Kombat.
As for other Brewers injuries, Aramis Ramirez is...
Actually, I have no personal problems with your suggestion, Mr. B. In fact, that's a great idea. Maldy is the better defensive catcher, and Luc has the better bat. The only problem with this idea is...
My only problem with that report is the assertion that Gonzalez will be starting for us. If we were planning on starting Gonzalez, we would've signed him long ago instead of risking him being taken...
Trade from their surplus of outfielders, only to sign another and recreate the surplus. Not sure I get it. Especially if it isn't because they're trading Upton. Ross is not an upgrade over Kubel, and...
Now that the big names are gone, and the Brewers haven't signed any of them, can we get over the idea that we have/want to spend ALL of the money? Lol, seriously, I couldn't help but laugh when we...
Man, we just keep winning. This is nuts. I LOVE it!!
That loss today might've pulled the plug on our life support machine. I hope not, and I doubt we give up; this team has not shown an ability to give up. But, I just don't know if we can do it without...
Stop getting your hopes up. Enjoy the good baseball while we're still playing it. We'd have to play insane baseball to make the playoffs. If we do, that would be awesome, but don't get your hopes up....
Brewers release Randy Wolf. Athletics' Bartolo Colon suspended for 50 games on the same day. Wolf's former personal catcher (George Kottaras) was traded to the A's before the deadline. Connection,...
I doubt this is really about Brad Mills' job with the pieces he was given. This was more than likely about the new front office regime wanting their own guy in there. Credit to them, though, they did...
Ignoring the obvious Greinke transaction because it has its own thread....
Brewers have officially announced the trade of C George Kottaras to the Oakland Athletics for RP Fautino De Los Santos....
The reason I find this plausible: Cliff Lee, Phillies. That's really all I need to say. It's happened before, it could happen again.
The Rangers wouldn't have gotten him. The offer they made us was pretty sad in comparison with the offer from the Angels. Not like it was bad, but the Angels offer gave us a much closer to ready SS...
Well then. Thought it would be the Braves or Rangers. That said, I'm perfectly happy with this deal. Thoughts?
Not surprised. Kottaras was the odd-man-out at catcher, Bianchi wasn't doing much better than our other SS's, and we need bullpen help like no one's business. I suspect Kottaras is going to be traded...
Oh, another guy we can move: Nyjer Morgan. We've got Logan Schafer waiting in the wings right now and playing very well in AAA.
His health is why you move him to the bullpen. He'd be more likely to stay healthy there, with a lot less pressure on his arm. You don't know about Manzanillo? Damn, look him up. Last I checked, he...
Experiment, find the guy for next year. I'd want to see a guy like Mark Rogers get a shot at it. Good heater, sharp curveball with it, and closing would probably be better on his arm. Jose Veras...
I'm not saying we need to move Corey, I'm saying there's a chance we could get a very lucrative offer for him, especially being under control for next season. If we get a very good offer for him, of...
Well, we died. We went 4-5, as I predicted, including a sweep at the hands of division-leading Cincinnati. Time to sell, guys. Greinke's gotta go, and you have to wonder if we might get an attractive...
I'm already well aware of your opinion on the matter, and I would like to reiterate my point that I was not attempting to debate the credibility of saves in their current format.
Either way, to...
Hey, that's pretty cool, man! By the way, I have to correct you on this, because it annoys me every time you do it: His name is Zack. With a "k." Not Zach. Zack. Sorry, I couldn't stop myself from it...
I absolutely agree, but you don't get that close to 300 career saves without having SOME ability to close out a game. He could be given as many opportunities as he wanted, but if he wasn't any good,...
