I didn't hear the broadcast, so maybe I'm making assumptions, but It sounds the equivalent of the Brewer's announcers not wanting to toss any props the M's way on the youth deal. Especially since the M's have snagged the heart and soul of the Brewers scouting department. Sour grapes?
As far as giving props to Ackley and Smoak? How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. Been there, and done that, with a fine toothed comb it seems. We gotta make'em earn those pats on the back.
So, yeah man. Nothing wrong with a little early wind in the sails, I'll buy into the momentum thing, factor in a little luck and we're burning rubber out of the gate. So, bloody cheers to that mate.
