    Well, obviously - my point is that the Brewers should view this coming offseason from the lens of "how do we get the most talent on the field for 2026 to win a world series, knowing minor league prospects not yet on 40 man rosters may readily replace MLB players in 2028 over the next couple years if an extended strike happens? Looking at it that way, IMO, means Freddy goes nowhere and is a Brewer in 2026
  2. Fear The Chorizo
    Freddy will turn 30 in the middle of next season - at $8M for 2026 and what he can do on the mound, IMO the Brewers won't get anything close to equal value in trading him for prospects before opening day. I think he provides a great rotation anchor role and is absolutely worth keeping around for next year to build around with all the other young arms. I also wouldn't want to extend him and will be happy to pick up the draft compensation assuming he declines the QO and enters free agency next offseason (similar to Burnes)....assuming there is an offseason - wondering what an impending lockout means to any free agents and what sort of compensation package that looks like for a team losing a free agent. I think 2026 should be a "go for it" year in Milwaukee unlike any other, because who the hell knows what the financial landscape will look like past this next season. That's actually the main reason why I wouldn't trade Freddy, now that I think of it.

    Even with converting - that was stupid
  4. Fear The Chorizo
    Ok, so I think this is stupid - dont convert here and you lose because of the earlier timeouts
  5. Fear The Chorizo
    Playing for the tie apparently?
  6. Fear The Chorizo
    What on earth are the plays being called right now? That series had zero chance
  7. Fear The Chorizo
    Instantly in FG range, lol
  8. Fear The Chorizo
    This is the most disjointed game ive seen in a very long time
  9. Fear The Chorizo
    Apparently McBride got omitted on the red zone scouting report - just wide open for both their TD passes
  10. Fear The Chorizo
    Seems like the delayed flight should've just waited longer to drag this insufferable unit to Phoenix yesterday...waste of jet fuel so far
  11. Fear The Chorizo
    Yeah, coaching is a huge problem So is jumping offsides - my goodness And leaving their best receiver wide flipping open in the red zone This is brutal
  12. Fear The Chorizo
    This defense lives on the field...its ok to make a stop on 3rd down, guys
  13. Fear The Chorizo
    Im reaching the point in knowing this team isnt very good
  14. Fear The Chorizo
    The whole bubble screen/swing pass screen portion of the playbook (which is apparently 2/3rds of it). Needs to be burned.
  15. Fear The Chorizo
    A hard cap and floor, full revenue sharing, and take 1 season out of the path of team control to reach free agency. Make it the NFL model but with guaranteed money. Honestly, i dont know why any team but the Dodgers wouldnt want that.
  16. Fear The Chorizo
    Dec 1, 2026 is when the lockout will start, about a month after the Dodgers 3rd straight WS parade. When it will end is anyone's guess - mine would be sometime before the 2029 regular season. Id want Miz, Patrick, Freddy, Gasser, and Priester in the rotation...although Henderson and Woodruff are definite possibilities, too.
  17. Fear The Chorizo
    Id say utility OF is his ceiling and always was - he overperformed that for awhile and then underperformed severely down the stretch - but a switch hitter with good plate discipline is valuable if there is more OF talent playing everyday in front of him.
  18. Fear The Chorizo
    Cruz sucks defensively and strikes out a ton - this team needs a quality all around SS and needs to be willing to trade the pieces necessary to make it happen. Gunnar Henderson, please. This team also needs a DH, and i know Yelich hamstrings them because of what he is still owed and the fact he isnt an everyday OF. Scwharber would look great in Milwaukee for the next 5-6 seasons - but a large market team will simply outbid anything the Brewers could offer. The Brewers need to use their system to acquire impact talent - they cant play the free agency game with large market teams to land impact veteran free agents, they will get outbid every time. I also think they need to continue pushing young impact prospects aggressively, based on how Chourio and Miz were the best players on their roster this postseason.
  19. Fear The Chorizo
    The issue is right now its the Dodgers, then an enormous gap, then the rest of mlb. Id put the Brewers firmly in the group of 5 teams who can say annually that they are the 2nd best team in baseball. But the gap between anyone and the Dodgers is a chasm. They wouldve done the same thing and probably worse to the Cubs, curb-stomped the Phillies (who at least won a game), and made the Reds look like a AA squad. That gap will continue, unfortunately

    If Suarez replicated his "production" that he gave the Mariners after the trade deadline for the brewers in August/september here, he might have led them to a wildcard berth and not a division title. Taking what happened against 4 Dodgers aces and going back to see what who actually was dealt at the trade deadline that could have helped them score more is a fool's errand. Durbin was actually the Brewers best offensive player in the NLCS, and he plays Suarez's position
  21. Fear The Chorizo
    Isn't the lockout/pending multi year strike starting after the end of next season? Because I expect to miss at least 1 year of baseball - and honestly there should be enough owners to be fine missing multiple years if a salary cap is a nonstarter to the MLBPA.
  22. Fear The Chorizo
    IIRC, Yelich had a pretty quiet 2018 postseason the year he went supernova and won league MVP, too.
  23. Fear The Chorizo
    I think he has put in the work and he's found a way to make a mlb playoff roster - expecting more from that guy who was a minor league rule 5 draft pick from the flipping rockies last offseason
  24. Fear The Chorizo
    I'm asking you the same question - do you really think Attanasio owns the whole team? Do you really think he takes the team profits for himself and those arent reinvested in the organization??
  25. Fear The Chorizo
    Just not happening enough and pressing when they stumble into those situations - lights are too bright against a team that doesnt mind the increased pressure at all. Having Yelich be worse than a nonfactor really hurts
