I'm going to say something incredibly brave, and it's that I'm fine going into a playoff series with a rotation of Miz/Harrison/Henderson/Drohan/Sproat. I'd rather get someone like Paredes than Skubal.

One of the things I continue to forget about the 2011 Brewers season is that by bWAR, Greinke was the fourth best starter in the rotation, in a rotation that was good but wasn't great!

Mail day today getting a through the mail autograph from Skip Lockwood. Pilot in 1969, Brewer from 1970 to 1972. He has the honor of being the last player to play for the Seattle Pilots, coming in the game in the 9th to close out their very last game in 1969.

Mail day delivered me Wayne Twitchell, Brewers pitcher in 1970 for two games. Over his 1.2 innings he had an ERA of 10.80 and was promptly traded the next year. He went on to play for ten seasons and was an All Star once. Card 846/871. 1 card left in the 1970s.

Traded a family member Kohl's Cash for Kwik Trip Brewers ticket vouchers tonight and I think that might be the most Wisconsin transaction I've ever done

I realize that Baseball Reference is an absurd and thorough stat database for which I do not pay, and I would have had to pay like $20 per season in the before internet times, but I really wish they had more comprehensive contemporary minor league data

Today's mail brought me Aaron Hill and Jim Edmonds, courtesy of @alltimebrewers.bsky.social! Hill was the every day 3B for the Brewers in the first half of 2016, and on May 7 he hit three home runs, the last being a grand slam in the top of the 10th. Hill was traded shortly before the All Star Break
