I was wondering if the Crew is on any of the Remaining Fa

I can't see us signing anyone we already have a crowded roster. I wouldnt mind Michael Lorenzen if we have a starter of two get hurt/look really bad (or Trevor Bauer). Although a AAA depth starter makes more sense. Any word on Junk going overseas? Here are some options that I believe are available

Justin Dunn was a former top prospect, not sure where he is from an injury last year.

Jaime Barria had a couple nice years with the Angels but stunk last year.

Justice Sheffield, Beau Burrows both former highly regarded prospects who have developed all the way.

Not that he makes a lot of sense for but Zack Grienke is sitting at 2979 strikeouts for his career. It would be really cool for him to get to 3000, the royals really should sign him just to make those 4-5 starts. I would probably have been OK getting Grienke early in the offseason but not now unless some injuries occur.

There's a FA pitcher that some posters have clamored about who got smacked around by a Barstool blogger, hopefully he stays unemployed.

For context, is this what you're referring to?

Lorenzen or Bauer would work for me.

I still think we add

The Brewers' FO has shown a willingness to act when the right deal comes along.  I don't have a hunch that something's happening, but there's good reason to believe they're at least out there still working the possibilities.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I think they are probably done adding. That said, breaking news within the next week that they are signing Matt Chapman to a pillow-type deal wouldn't surprise me in the least. The fit makes a lot of sense. It is early, but 3B playing time has kind of been a hodgepodge so far among Monasterio, Black, Frelick, Wilken and Ortiz. While there is quite a bit of hope in that group, all have multiple question marks. Signing Chapman would be the type of unpredictable move that this team has become known for over the years.

A bleacher report article predicted Brandon Belt would get a 1/6 million dollar deal. I know we absolutely don't need him but that seems like a steal. He had a 136 ops+ last year, 2022 was bad but 160 ops+ in 2021, and 177 in 2020. If we did trade an OF, Adames, then Yeli doesn't DH and a Belt, Sanchez DH platoon would be amazing. 

1) Frelick 2)Contreras 3)Yeli 4) Rhys 5)Belt/Sanchez 6)Chourio 7)Black 8) Ortiz 9) Turang

I am not a big fan of it but maybe even keep Willy and send Turang to AAA or trade him.

Would rather have Belt be an alternate at 1B than be a platoon DH partner with Sanchez. 

Having Turang as the #9 hitter isn't the worst thing in the world. 

[wallus]

Belt at a one year, 6 million dollar contract is a no brainer. I know the team thinks they found something with Bauers but Belt would be a great RHP DH and backup 1B. 

[brewmann04]

I lke Belt at that deal more proven than Bauers

and i agree Red on chapman
