Re: 2017 Milwaukee Brewers, Back to Back Champions!
Pretty crazy that the guy is younger than Ryan Braun.

Re: 2017 Milwaukee Brewers, Back to Back Champions!
Lucroy's done catching for the year, although not done overall.
Nelson is done for the year.
Six Shuckers called up, but not Arcia.
Braun is having back surgery after the season.
The Cubs look like they have a little bit of magic this year, but it's easy to look like that against the Brewers. It's also easy to look like that with Arrieta on the mound.
A week and a half left, and as awful as this season has been, I'm still going to miss it. Should be a very interesting offseason for the Brewers.
Re: 2017 Milwaukee Brewers, Back to Back Champions!
It will be interesting to see if Stearns scraps the 3 run home run offense plan of Melvin's. I'd like to see fast guys hit for above average and play great d with a couple power guys mixed in. Also what will his approach be to the pitching be, New bullpen every year? And what to do with Braun?

There is nothing he can do with Braun is there?

I think Braun is cemented. He never seems to be truly healthy for an entire season, and he has a huge contract. They'd have to take less (or give up cash), and at this point, he's not much of a PR problem. When he's healthy, he's still one of their most effective offensive weapons.

Yeah, they'd have to eat a ton of money and with his health issues, I have to think he's unmovable.

Re: 2017 Milwaukee Brewers, Back to Back Champions!
We got the 5th pick in the draft, so there's that. Interesting to see who they bring in for the coaching staff (all except Coles and Sedar were fired). My first reaction was, "They kept the hitting coach and fired the bullpen coach?" Here's to next season.

Haudricourt said that the bullpen coach was guilty by association, since Counsell considers the starting pitching and bullpen. to be one entity. Confused me that they kept the hitting coach too, especially with that language.
Other thing Haudricourt tweeted was that Counsell is looking for the right people to teach and bring their experiences, not "Yes" men.

Exactly. Coles isn't guilty by association? I guess we don't know what goes on between the coaches and players and behind closed doors.
Interesting how none of the major player grades (minus the starting pitching) were that bad, but the overall grades were. They didn't grade anyone that was traded away.
Several As, all in the bullpen. Only the second F I can remember seeing. Well-deserved.
