  1. I'm with Chorizo on this Frelick, Mitchell, Weimer is the planned starting OF. Yelich gets a shot to learn 1st or DH (maybe or they just assume the 4 share playing time in OF and a big chunk of DH ABs) 4th and 5th OF spots are handled with a similar collection to who we have this year in those roles. Chourio starts in AAA and is likely the first call if there is a noteworthy injury. They'll stash 1 or 2 other guys in AAA to cover that injury if it's minor or too early in the season or if Jackson is struggling a bit out of the gate. Perfect world all those guys hit, and probably Mitchell get dealt midseason for something else shiny and we enjoy the greatest Brewer OF of all time (oops sorry thought it was the optimism thread). Imperfect world you still have a number of those players hitting well, and playing great defense while covering more ABs with the 4th OF then you'd like.
  2. If there was that little on the farm for the Angels getting a solid rotation arm and another bullpen guy seems reasonable. It's not like those 2 prospects would turn the near future of the team around on their own. The only hope in the near term is to either spend their way out of the situation in the offseason or just let it all go. If that doesn't work I don't see Trout bring back enough in a trade either to do much for a rebuild..
  3. I would listen, but this seems more like something that would have to happen in the offseason. Right now it's hard to envision how this isn't waving the flag for the current season since he is easily our top bat in the line-up. Certainly by the end of the contract Yelich is probably a part time player, but with 5 years to go his bounce back alters the albatross potential. I do think there is value in having that face player.
  4. Does Freddy get to start the 7th?
  5. The double pushes Turang's July OPS up to just over .650 in 70 plate appearances, not Earth shattering but moving out of the black hole category and into OKish with the defense.
  6. Hopefully today marks the day Freddy finds himself again for the rest of the season.
  7. Well that got interesting, forcing them to use another pen arm at least something
  8. Regardless of how the last 2 games play out the Reds fan have to just be so torqued that they would be solidly owning the division if not for the games against us.
  9. Sure, but at his current pace Sal will break into the top in July of next year 😜
  10. Your top 4 are spot on for me, but Chris Saenz's debut has to go 5, certainly for those on Brewerfan at the time, it was this shot of energy game that signaled that farm system was really producing some players, and against a tough line-up. I'd Jenkins 6th since that game was closer and getting a couple of hits off Orel is a solid achievement in a debut.
  11. Probably not of course, but 4 of their last 5 losses have been by just a single run, so It's not that hard to imagine them having gone on a just absurd run with a little more offense.
  12. Got love winning a game in 2 and a half hours on get-away day as well.
  13. If Woodruff comes back and joins Burnes and Yeli parting like it's 2019 this could be a really fun fall.
  14. Turang's walk numbers up a lot this month now, and going back to June his contact has been dramatically better. I think that is part of the adjustment process for him.
  15. I don't know this fake the bunt strategy seems to be working really well for Turang.
  16. I do love the MVP version of Yelich.
  17. I was trying to figure out how to do worse than Winker's .247 SLG, and was disturbed to learn that JBJ is still playing and has put up a 397 OPS I thought baseball was a family game. In any event prior to this year even JBJ always beat that terrible of a SLG

  19. From a finance side a player should also be evaluating how signing affects their entire career. A-ball players of course aren't making any noteworthy money, but at least you don't have to try and secure a 6 figure signing bonus anymore to live off for a few years. That starts to change some of the calculus. Getting started in pro-ball earlier for sure gets you to minor league free agency sooner, which is now worth some good money, and it increases the chances you hit MLB free agency sooner all of which add up to significant potential benefit. If I am a pitcher at this stage and offered a chance with the Brewers I would also have to look at that as a significant plus...
  20. Frelick, Black, Urias, Keston and a couple of other prospects in the 10-20 range? 20 players is over the top, but the Angels need a lot of players having failed terribly at the 2 all time greats approach so quantity may actually be more useful to them then normal.
  21. Bellinger coming back to being well above average is even more surprising then Yelich. The last 2 years for Cody were horrific followed by just plain bad.
  22. Could I make more on tomorrow night's Powerball or by going back in time and betting the Brewers would shut the Reds out 3 games in a row?
  23. Any ideas on why this game won't stream on MLB while I'm in St. Paul? Fox is airing the Braves game.
