Brewers trade for Schoop; give up Luis Ortiz, Jean Carmona, and Jonathan Villar

[FVBrewerFan]

I have seen different answers here, I thought I was sure he is signed through 2019, but a couple people said through 2020. That's not correct is it?

[Boomer5]

Carmoma our number 14 on MLB pipeline. Ortiz our number 7.

[ecjimg]

Per MLB...........Luis Ortiz, Jean Carmona and Jonathan Villar

 

Didn't see Villar coming.

 

Didnt see Villar going (fixed!)

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

What are his stats against LHP since I'm guessing he's gonna see a lot of them?

[PinaMadness]

Schoop .382/.382/.941 over the past 7 games.

Guy was 12th in MVP voting last year. Competenent defender, crazy good power for a middle infielder and only 26. Nothing in the trade to miss much besides Ortiz. I realize Carmona was top 30 but he's the definition of a lottery ticket.

That's it for the Lucroy/Jeffress trade, interesting not one of the players ever played for the Brewers

[LouisEly]

I think it's a fair trade. My concern with Schoop is that he doesn't take walks - 3.3% BB rate this year, 3.6% BB rate for his career. K rate isn't awful - 20% this year, 22% for his career. Because he doesn't walk though he has to hit for power. Doesn't put pressure on the Brewers to bring up Hiura early, and I don't think that Hiura would have been ready next year anyway.

 

Brewers still have lots of young pitching depth - Burnes, Peralta, Woodruff, Houser, Zack Brown. Carmona is a long ways off and all potential at this point. I'm OK with it.

Brinson did.

Brinson played for the Brewers briefly, but yes none of them spent substantial time with the MLB club.

Roster Resource shows him being a FA in 2020

Oh yeah my bad, totally forgot he played last year

Brinson played in 21 games for the Brewers.

[PinaMadness]

Does this mean we'll see less of Perez?

Brinson played, albeit briefly.

[LouisEly]

I guarantee we'll see less of Orf.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Where do people see him hitting in the lineup?

[sveumrules]

Should we really be excited by this? 273 OBP this year. Yuck.

 

Brewers 2B this year: 242/297/362 (75 wRC+)

Schoop this year: 244/273/447 (90 wRC+)

Schoop rest of season projection: 260/300/464 (105 wRC+)

Schoop in 2017: 293/338/503 (121 wRC+)

He's had a pretty good July.

[wildcat83]

Watch Villar flunk his physical.

 

Thought all that stuff had to be done by the deadline?

It does need to be done.

[tmwiese55]

300/360 last year and 255/308 this year vs lefties. Not a drastic tick up but he's predictably better vs lefty than righty

[Ennder]

I don't think this is going to be Schoop playing SS like people suggest, at least not every day. It is going to be mixing and matching a lot at 2B and 3B and some SS. Probably see Shaw sit some early because he has been banged up lately.
