Molitor
Really – 31% of readers don’t support a statue of Paul in front of Miller Park – that seems like an awful lot of trolls…

I was going to question the 4% that support Remetee
but the trolls would explain that…

To be fair, I think all the statues are dumb/a waste of money.
Nothing against Molitor.
Shruggity.

I voted no
unless he has a traitor Twins uni on. Then I approve of the statue.

But I agree with Mykenk

They should put the statues in the outfield like at old Yankee Stadium
Eagerly awaiting SBN Madison.
I have my reasons for voting against it
and it has nothing to do with his play on the field.

Its interesting to me that so many people approve of Melvin
Yet disapprove of Macha and Peterson.
Does Melvin get to still ride the high-tide of public support due to the fact that he took the team out of the perennial tank and made them into a solid .500 club with an all-or-nothing hitter approach to the farm system? Wasn’t he the guy who HIRED Macha and Peterson…and Ned Yost?

If Jack Z would take him... would you deal Prince for C Lee???
Provided Cliff would sign an extension??? Pitchers of his caliber don’t become availble everyday – and power hitting 1B are easy to find.
Besides…. Prince still wants to be paid like an MVP – which the Brewers [hopefully] wont do.
