Paredes is 28 and has thrown (checks notes) less than 50 MLB innings. 16 in a brewers uniform. that's not someone you start making long term roster moves for. yes he's been a nice addition, but you dont trade guys who have been staples in the pen for a year and a half (both with multiple seasons of team control) because youre impressed with a month of Paredes. this is the definition of recency bias.
Perkins could be a 2-3 WAR guy for 3 or 4 years, or maybe not. Kikuchi is gone after this year no matter what. Brewers need to get better value out of their trades than this.
If that's the case (and I don't know that it is) that's just dumb. I can see punting a game in the third inning to conserve arms. You're up in the 8th inning, you play for the win.
so do I. the graphical presentation is clean, easy to read, and doesn't distract from the game. announcers are meh, but the overall presentation is really solid.
so the brewers should trade Turang, an elite defender and baserunner, who's hitting well.... to "make room" for an almost 27 year old who just made it to AAA.
wut.
It's definitely a weak spot in his defense. Makes one wonder how he can watch tape week after week and not be like "I should shore that area of my defense up somehow....."
