CJ Abrams

[TheeAirbender]

The Athletic just posted an article indicating the Brewers had interest in CJ Abrams this past offseason, and are expected to reexplore their interest soon. Very interesting to me. Obviously the left side of the infield is the biggest spot to upgrade but with the Pratt extension + Made, its a weird spot to make a long term upgrade at. Maybe they believe they can move Abrams to 3rd?

He’s never played an inning of 3B.

I think you’d have to move Pratt plus a very high end prospect like Pena and then maybe one more prospect outside the top 100 to even get the Nats interested. Then Abrams would start everyday at SS and Ortiz would stay as a platoon 3B plus late defensive replacement at SS.

I don’t think it would be the best move for the org to deal Pratt after the extension. They’ve shown a willingness to move guys to new positions in the past

Just say no

His defense would cause the daily IGT threads to EXPLODE!
