Significant Acquisition Coming? Krasnick says "buzz" Brewers close to a trade

[DR28]

With Marlins asking for final offers, Im guessing this could move quick.

[HighHeat19]

Does he think we have a good shot at getting Yelich?

 

Yes.

 

You gave a % of the initial trade. What do you think about this one?

 

Honestly, 95%.

[MrTPlush]

My source says Hader is literally untouchable in ALL trade talks.

 

I find it a bit odd to dub him untouchable and then leave him in relief.

 

Not really. Late inning relief is becoming the preference across MLB in a lot of cases. Indians/Cubs made a World Series on the backs of elite closers in a sense. They are garnering big time returns and contracts because bullpens rule in the postseason.

 

I know someone wrote an article about the importance of a good bullpen and elite arms...and teams are starting to notice this. Josh Hader is so valuable in the bullpen. Unless he could be a #2 starter or better he is best in the bullpen.

That's strong.

Yes it is.

[DR28]

Think it gets done before the weekend?

Yes it is.

Are you saying its close to done?

[HighHeat19]

And the Braves, White Sox, Padres and Nationals are the reason it's not 100%. With the Braves being the biggest threat.

 

Plus I know the Brewers offer. And no I'm not telling anyone here or even giving the SLIGHTEST hints. That gets some people in trouble if you know what I mean.

 

Be ready though...... It's gonna sting a little bit.

Will it be a domino effect then with other moves?

Without naming names, how many top 100 prospects are they giving up?

Braves have said they wont deal Acuna.

[pogokat]

You basically just told us the Braves or White Sox could offer acuna or Eloy to beat our brinson

[82brewcrew82]

I'd bet neither one of those happen.

[JackNicholson1974]

Gonna sting? Hmmm. Gotta be Brinson and Burnes then, plus

You have to admit that is the SLIGHTEST of hints.

[82brewcrew82]

Gonna sting? Hmmm. Gotta be Brinson and Byrnes then, plus

I'm tellin ya..Brinson, Burnes, I. Diaz, Peralta and Pennington..or something pretty close.

Probably not— would the nats trade Robles?

[bensheeps]

HH19

If the Yelich deal happens, how quick for the next to go down? Are they lined up that close?

 

(I know, I'm getting greedy )

I think that's closer.

Would have to think that package also brings Castro over to fill 2B.

[pacopete4]

HighHeat19:

 

Do you know if they are just targeting Yelich or are there other pieces that could possibly come back with him, ie. Realmuto, Barraclough, Castro

[superfly]

Me wants some Barraclough.

[Eye Black]

I mentioned this in the other thread, but I think the Marlins may view Brinson with a different lens than other teams. He grew up in the area, rooted for the Marlins as a kid, it might actually give them a little hope for some positive spin on what has otherwise has been a difficult off-season for their fans. I am not saying those are reasons to make a trade, or even that their fans will like it initially, but I could see Brinson’s value being just a touch higher for them.
