Such as? And why would a guy who is only 22 years old need a change of scenery? His minor league OBP, while always being 1.3 - 4 years younger than league average, is .407 with a B:K ratio of 3:4. Teenagers with that type of plate discipline aren't common. He was in the majors by the age of 21. I have him moving to 2B if the concern is SS defense. Hopefully people aren't judging him by his performance as 21-22 year old in MLB.

Adames to the Dodgers for one of Pepiot/Sheehan/Stone Payamps to the Orioles for Joey Ortiz Burnes to the Braves for one of Smith-Shawver/Waldrep and Grissom Black takes over 3B. One year stopgap at 1B until Wilken is ready. OF: Frelick, Mitchell, Taylor (until Chourio is ready) 3B: Black SS: Ortiz 2B: Grissom 1B: (Santana/Canha?) C: Contreras DH: Yelich Rotation: Peralta, Miley, Houser, Gasser, one of Pepiot/Sheehan/Stone Pen: Williams, Megill, Milner, Uribe, Peguero, Wilson, Rea (swingman/spot starter), LHRP free agent/trade acquisition AAA: Chourio, Wiemer, Turang, Wilken, Rodriguez, Smith-Shawver/Waldrep I think that's ideal. Gets value for impending FAs with young ML-ready talent, has some depth at AAA in case of injury/ineffectiveness. Could be good enough to sneak into the playoffs.

With Black and Wilken knocking on the door, I'm not trading Burnes for a corner IF, especially one who is likely to move to 1B. Not sure I'd trade Williams for one either. It would have to be a for a guy who for sure can stick at 3B in case Wilken and Black can't, or move to 2B if Wilken or Black can stick at 3B. If I'm dealing with the Orioles it would likely be for Ortiz, especially if Adames is going to be traded. Need more offense from SS/2B, much more so if no Adames. Payamps for Ortiz matches up pretty well, Brewers can hold Williams until the deadline. I think the Braves or Dodgers make much more sense than the Orioles for Burnes, because they have young pitching to send back and because they are more likely to have the $$$ to extend Burnes, netting more trade value. I'd much rather have one of Smith-Shawver or Waldrep plus Grissom from the Braves for Burnes. Grissom becomes the 2B bat the Brewers need. -
You have to think that with Woodruff's injury that Gasser is penciled in for one of the rotation spots. If Burnes is traded, use blue ink.

I've stayed at McMenamins in Troutdale! Love that place. Can bar hop on the property, and have legit snooker tables in the downstairs bar. One of the most fun and unique places I've stayed at.

I don't know what that graphic is that TNT uses on replays that is blue with white bumps, but I find it really weird and somewhat bothersome.

They're on BTN tonight. 8PM Central, 6PM Pacific. Looks like only two more games on BTN the rest of the season - Dec. 8th vs. Penn State, and Feb 17th vs Ohio State. Everything else is BTN+. https://uwbadgers.com/sports/mens-ice-hockey/schedule

https://badgerswire.usatoday.com/ https://badgernotes.com/ Jeff Potrykus on X/Journal Sentinel. There's a message board specifically for Badgers sports that's a lot like this site. There are some insiders on there including Potrykus, other media members, W Club execs, etc.

https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/B/BakhDa00.htm Started a majority (11 of 17) of games (which is 10 more than he will start this year). Keep in mind, I said mostly healthy.

Fair to question the coaching hires. Stenavich was highly regarded and the thought was that they needed to promote him or someone else would poach him. Barry is fair game, but despite injuries defense isn't the problem this year. Keep in mind that Rodgers had: Veteran WRs (Lazard, Cobb, Watkins for part of the season) to throw to A healthy Aaron Jones A mostly healthy Bakh and Elgton Jenkins in 2022 Veteran TEs (Lewis, Tonyan, Davis) Davante Adams (if you're talking about pre-2022) Veteran WRs to help coach Watson/Doubs/Toure I don't think that what Rodgers was working with and what they are working with this year are remotely comparable.

The AFL used to be a measuring stick of performance against better competition, but it seems like teams don't send their top pitching prospects anymore (unless they missed a significant chunk of the season, and even then, they usually prefer to work with them at their own facilities). Relievers are sometimes the exception. While EBJ and Clarke have had good offensive performances, it's hard to say if that's really against better competition or just average AA pitching.

Maybe the first person(s) to go are the strength and conditioning coaches. The number of hamstring injuries is mind boggling.

On YouTube TV I cannot search for Wisconsin hockey by either "Wisconsin" or "Badgers". They lump all college hockey into the category of "hockey" so I have to scroll through every game every week to find any Badgers games and add them to my library.

The more annoying practice is companies not taking down job postings when they have already been filled, are in final interviews, or are on a hiring freeze. It's gotten to the point where when a job has over 200 applicants (not uncommon) I don't even bother anymore. It's more than annoying - filling out hundreds of applications and cover letters, only to never hear anything back or be told the position has been filled, affects people's mental health.

What is Adam Stenavich's role?
-
Extra, extra funny is that Houston had a losing record at home this season.
-
Just take pleasure in knowing that the Cardinals sold him to the Rangers. Not even traded - sold.
-
Both of these series have been fantastic. Road team has won every game in the ALCS so far and two of the NCLS games.

There you go, Phillies. Burn Kimbrel down 5-1 in the 8th so that he's not fresh tomorrow. Would love to see that burn them. And, of course, keep the streak of Brewers opponents going to the World Series alive!

2023 Minor League Transaction Thread
LouisEly replied to Jim Goulart's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
I think it's more about giving Wiemer the year in AAA that he needs and perhaps not planning on Canha being back. I really do think that Yelich will move to primary DH, especially once Chourio is ready. That leaves an OF of: LF: Taylor CF: Mitchell RF: Frelick DH: Yelich Bench: Perkins, ? AAA: Chourio, Wiemer Roller fills the backup OF/injury callup spot until Chourio or Wiemer are ready. -
Would it be illegal for Giannis to pay other player's salaries to help skirt the salary cap?

Youngest team in the NFL. Six of the 10 WRs/TEs are rookies and three of the other four are 2nd year players. Yes, Love has been around for a couple of years, but he hasn't been building chemistry with his receivers because six of the ten of them weren't here and three more weren't here two years ago. Then add to that most of their best players missing games including Bakh, Jones, Alexander, Jenkins, Stokes, Watson... Not sure what people expected.
