Brewers Video
Last evening, the Brewers tapped the Keg, taking home a significant victory against the Cardinals in the home opener of the 2022 season. As always, the forums are abuzz with conversation so let's get right into it.
User @Ulice Payne asks you What if you were Monarch of Baseball? It's precisely the kind of question that our forums thrive upon, and the answers don't disappoint. I believe hitters should be given the option to run the bases clockwise or counter-clockwise on a whim, but I also believe in burning society to the ground, so maybe I'm not the right person to answer this question.
Next up, we look at the lowest-of-hanging fruit in the 2022 season... @MVP2110 gives us a place to trope with the 2022 Brewers offense thread. Considering how the season started following how the 2021 postseason ended for the Brewers, MVP2110 smartly decided to funnel all complaints to a single thread. It was a smart move and unsurprisingly gained quite a bit of traction with other users.
The next topic is one of the things I love about community forums, and those are the bonkers-out-of-nowhere ideas that, while seemingly insane on the surface, actually have merit. In this case, @treego14 asks Can MLB teams trade for cash/percentage of TV revenue instead of prospects/players? At a glance, it's completely insane. But upon consideration... is it that insane given the wild inequity of modern baseball? Obviously, fixing the inequity would be the correct decision but let us not make good the enemy of perfect.
In the following thread, I will pat myself on the back a little so bear with me a moment. This morning, I asked the question Yelich: a new (old) man or a mirage? And then Christian went out and crushed two balls in almost the same way he crushed a ball just a night or two before. Are we finally seeing a return of the Christian Yelich the Brewers so badly need in 2022?
In conclusion, we have to shout out to the home opener thread from the ever-present @Eye Black, the most active moderator on BF that isn't named Mass Haas. Considering how it wasn't only the home opener but also a resounding beating of a division rival, let's take a moment to read Game Thread (4/14/2022): Cardinals (Wainwright) at Brewers (Woodruff) - 4:14 PM CDT.
That's all we have for today; see you all next week, and GO CREW!
