Brew Crew Ball

Answer: Playing for the US Olympic team under the name Mike Koplove

Question: Who is the Brewers' top prospect?
Answer: Jonathan Lucroy - The best catching prospect in the system by virtue of the fact that he can actually catch. His hitting numbers at Brevard are very good on the face of it, but even better after accounting for Space Coast Stadium.

Question: Now that it's over, how will you remember the Brewers' season?
Answer: A rousing success. They made the playoffs, something they hadn't done since before many bloggers here were born.

Question: What are you feelings on the Brewers being a possible match-up for Jake Peavy?
Answer: The Brewers should certainly look into trading for him. He is a quality player.

Answer: Yes
Brew Crew Ball
Question: If we're to enter the CC Sabathia sweepstakes, we probably couldn't afford to also exercise Mike Cameron's $9.25 million option. Would you be wiling to risk not-resigning Mike Cameron for the chance at signing CC?
Answer: No: an .808 OPS from a centerfielder is too valuable to pass up.
Brew Crew Ball
Question: So bringing Mike Cameron back for 2009 will cost the Brewers $9.25 million (once you factor in a $750k buyout they owed him either way). Good idea?
Answer: Yes
Brew Crew Ball
Question: What kind of contract should the Brewers offer Ben Sheets?
Answer: Two seasons, less than $10 million per, option for a third.
Brew Crew Ball
Question: If adding a 6th year to CC Sabathia's contract offer were enough to dramatically up the odds of him re-signing with the team, would you do it?
Answer: No way --- anything beyond 3 or 4 years is too risky.
