The Milwaukee Brewers are SO STUPID!!!!

c0LLect0r

My dad told me the Brewers are trading/giving away in free agency Tyler Houston (our starting 3rd baseman who is a very underrate player), Jose Hernandez (our SS All-Star), Matt Stairs (our starting RF), Jamie Wright (one of our SP), Mike De Jong (which is a good move cause he sucks), and Mark Loretta (who is soooooo underrated. He is a 3rd string 2nd baseman behind Belliard and Young and he is 3x better than both of them). And they are getting rid of them because they have "Market Value". I have no clue what they are thinking.

lol collector, you are such a moron. First I don't accept any opinions on guys who supposedly "know" the team yet can't spell any of their names right. Lets see, its JAMEY Wright, and Mike DEJEAN. You are probably one of those guys who spells Jenkins first name Jeff too. And let me inform you of other reasons why your points arent valid and you must not follow the brewers at all.
#1-Matt Stairs is not our starting RF. He starts sparingly, and thats because of the injury to Jenkins. If Jenkins hadn't dislocated his ankle then he would be in left, Sanchez in center, and Hammonds/Ochoa/Stairs (who will get less playing time than Hammonds and Ochoa).
#2-JAMEY Wright may be one of our SP'ers, but he is the worst one of them all with a 6.21 ERA in 12 games this year. Plus he makes the most out of any of them, he is making 4.5 million. And you wonder why they want to dump him?
#3-Jose Hernandez and Tyler Houston are having "contract" years. You know, its so amazing that they are playing real well this year, considering they don't have any guarenteed money the next 3-5 years. Jose is going to command wayyyyyyy to much money for his one good season. Tyler I'm not sure about, if we can pick him up for real cheap after this season and sign him to only a 2 or 3 year deal then I say take him. (BTW: I don't really like Hernandez anyways, the more men that get on base and the farther they get he gets worse at the plate. He is hitting a paltry .213 with RISP, which is not good if you are the #7 hitter and you are getting the same # of chances or more as Sexson is and you have 17 less RBIs than he does. And alot of times he will K when all we need is a sacrifice grounder or fly (BTW he is on pace for 200 K's, way to go Hernandez))
#4-Mark Loretta is making 5 million bucks and the Brewers will not have him back next year anyways (cause of the agreement players who are currently with their teams cannot be offered any less than 80% of their pervious salary by the same team (80% of 5 million would be 4 million, I dont think they want Loretta back for 4 million, there are plenty of other utility guys for cheaper))
#5-Why not get rid of these players? In all these guys cases: Wright, Houston, Hernandez, Stairs, Loretta, they will not be back next year. So why not dump them off on anyone who will take them? You think its much more important for the Brewers to try to win a few games the second half of the season with these guys in the lineup than having guys called off the bench or AAA to finish the season and maybe win like 5 less games than they would have with their starting players at the moment? Come on now. I don't mind when people who actually follow the brewers disagree with me on a player or trade situation, but I dont appreciate guys coming around blabbing all this crap about which they know nothing about the situation.
