  1. This is a good rundown of the next most imminent wave though I would have included Hardin, Lara, and Burke in the other names to know section. Hardin should be in that AAA rotation with Crow, CarRod, and possibly Gasser. I think we all sense Lara is an org darling. And Burke is an older, but ascending, masher who is neck and neck with Adams and Wilken in my book. Author definitely had a strong grasp of how the Brewers operate. Great insight. Pratt, Fischer, Made, DeBerry and Letson lead the charge of the next wave. It’s easy to forget about Tyler Black and Craig Yoho. I sense both are firmly in the Brewers plans even if some fans have sold their stock. Yoho never really lost anything stuff-wise, he was just buried in the pecking order and lost a half tick of command maybe? Black has shown a knack for getting on base at the highest level which is a very valuable skill.
  2. Robert Gasser, Craig Yoho, Coleman Crow, Tyson Hardin and Carlos Rodriguez are all better positioned now to soak up innings this season. Will be exciting to see them battle it out in Spring. The DeBerry/Letson/Dorchies wave are right behind those guys. This might actually be the year we don’t sign a vet arm at the outset of ST. I cannot help but observe the Brewers seem to have a boatload of guys who can tick up their stuff for medium-length outings (30-50 pitches). My prediction is we see some sort of mutant piggyback approach this season. Shorter starts followed by high leverage swingmen eating up 2-3 inning each until the game is over. Even Megill, Koenig and Uribe are built for multi-inning work, which I would prefer, if it meant fewer appearances overall.
  3. Tobias isn’t inconsequential. A key cog of the resilient pitching staff depth. This is a fair trade although our end of the value (most likely) won’t convey for a few years. Not only is the farm system strong but it’s at the precipice of churning out a myriad of various skill sets from the high minors. Those clamoring for power surely see the homegrown power of Wilken, Adams, Burke, Dinges, Fischer bubbling up? Just keep collecting eclectic high-end skill sets across the timeline spectrum and eventually the stars will align. Although the underlying data isn’t as sparkling, Jett’s batting line looks Made-esque at similar ages/levels. He looks like a rock solid 2-win player with a couple more impressive seasons mixed in during the course of his career. A very good Collins replacement with much more upside. Sproat is giving me Priester vibes. The Mets know what they are doing with pitchers but let’s see if he can take another half step or more.
  4. I suspect they get aggressive with their top guys. Could easily see Fischer and Pena in AA at 3B and 2B. Baez goes to the bench or A+. Garcia heads to the OF.
  5. It’s probably just a function of a tight budget and minor league free agent decision bottlenecks BUT what if the Brewers are also planning on doubling down on the aggressive placement of their players to backfill the holes at AAA and AA currently? That would be interesting. They were young at all levels last year and it wouldn’t surprise me if we continued to be this year.
  6. 8 man double 🐖 LOL I agree we will continue to see the lines blurred within the pitching staff. High effort extended outings every 5-6 days make as little sense as high effort short outings multiple days in a row. The sweet spot in performance, and likely health, is probably something more like 6-12 out stints every 2-4 days.
  7. Bregman is a really good all-around player on a per game basis. Could see him getting some MVP votes with good health. Shaw is a great fallback option. I also think Cabrera was a good bet for them. They moved their chips in for this year and acquired fringe blue chippers. I’d be very happy if the Brewers had made similar moves.
  8. Great post! I’d add that the whole strategy seems to be coming to a precipice this season (and next). The backfields in Arizona will be fascinating this year. I see the timeline like so: Year 0: Draft/Sign/Acquire very young player with projectable traits. Tweak arsenal and sequencing or teach proper swing decision, defense, and grinder offensive philosophy. Year 1: Those performing on the backfields are pushed aggressively in order to face advanced competition. Reward strong performance with further promotion. Backfill with the next wave. First signs of breakout start showing. Year 2 and 3: Cream continues to rise. Body maturation and pro experience result in rapid improvement for the hard workers. With so many entering year 2 and 3 of this process, I’d expect to see some of the fruits of all this labor. We already are but it should only amplify.
  9. This is precisely my prediction as well. Tons of piggybacks. Let the cream rise to the top for the post season.
  10. Is what it is. There are strong systems throughout the division including ours. I’m pretty happy with the floor/ceiling combo we possess.
  11. Can confirm Bishop Letson is in Appleton. Perhaps this is already known. My boy got an auto tonight form the talented young hurler.
  12. Madé was awesome during Spring Training. Signed balls and took pics with both my boys on his way to the back fields. Big smile.
