Bauers to Red Sox 4/58M

[Yaz]

This is a sad day for me.   I knew he would get his due but geez.  He proved so many wrong in 2026.   Glad he saved his best season to date for this year and helped the Brewers win W.S.   Best wishes to him in Boston.  Glad it was there because of the teams in the AL East that is the only team I ever liked when I was young due to the damn Yankees.

Count me as not convinced Vaughn will be the primary first baseman.

Make the MLB fair again!

Why do we have to lose one of our stars again?

The Big Leagues remain the Rigged Leagues!

I'll probably watch this once a week for the rest of my days:

I'm indifferent. I would have welcomed him back at the QO price, but not even really interested in a second year. I think he just played his best season. I don't see it as an insurmountable loss.

We know the Brewers have been playing match ups based on swing paths versus the opposing SP's arsenal the last couple years now.

Even though they are both righties, Vaughn (flatter swing) and Adams (more of an uppercut guy I believe) could still make for decent platoon partners.

Echoing the good for Jake sentiments. I thought he might get 3/45 or 2/33 or something, so this seems right from an AAV perspective. That said, the Brewers can't really offer a guy in his thirties a 4-year deal. That's risk only a bigger market team can take on.

With the Comp A pick, this works out for everyone. Good luck, Jake. We'll always have maybe the best bat-flip in Brewers history.

Vaughn probably gets the ABs people have been wanting for him if he sticks around, that's for sure.

He should get a standing ovation from our fans when he returns this season.

I know May already elected FA, but this one feels like the start of the 2026 chapter closing. And that chapter was the greatest one ever written. Kinda bums me out.

Just one ... then boo him for leaving us!
