  1. What does Hoskins have to do with this, Seigler is playing the majority of time at 3B? Definitely don't want Dunn up, he was the spring Seigler the last couple of years. However Durbin saved the front office from the Dunn/Capra experience and now being pushed to the side. Lefty infielder is something the front office should have addressed at the trade deadline but now it is too late. Everything is coming up roses now but it is the kind of thing that will bite them come playoff time.
  2. Noted it in a game thread a week or two back but not a fan, if they felt a platoon was needed for Durbin should have picked up somebody with a proven track record at the trade deadline. Having a journeyman minor leaguer as the strong side platoon this late in the season doesn't appear to be a great plan. Tried it with Dunn earlier in the season and now Seigler. They do sub in Durbin as soon as a lefty comes in but not real comfortable with Seigler getting the majority of the playing time in the playoffs.
  3. I am certainly no newbie around here but have disappointment. Salary dumping Cortes is fine if they acquire something else of value from the Padres or anothe team but neither of those things happended. The Cubs got a bit better but the Brewers didn't. The Padres, a team the Brewers could face in the Wild Card round got better. Maybe a waiver wire pickup will fall in their lap in August.
  4. What does luck have to do with it. There are obvious areas of upgrade along the margins and better their chances of advancing in the playoffs. We have all seen them win the division and make the playoffs before. If they think they needed to upgrade catcher they have to know they are pretty thin elsewhere.
  5. Wouldn't mind seeing Henderson, could use somebody better than McGee/Yoho at the bottom and Grant Anderson is starting to look a little shaky.
  6. From the White Sox fans I know they are taking Vaughn's play with the Brewers rather well especially since they considered him such a disappoitnment when he played for them. Maybe him hurting the Cubs softens the blow a bit.
  7. Durbin isn't real good against RHP, could use a platoon down the stretch and into the playoffs but Seigler isn't it.
  8. Moustaks was actually a rental and he decided on a one year deal with the Brewers for the 2019 season before getting the long term contract with the Reds.
  9. Congrats on the good luck. They must have been stacked in bunches because I was walking by the entrance in the left field bleachers and the same thing happend with a group of 4 that were screaming with excitement.
  10. Smith may be just an utlity guy but if he is really available would be a heck of a pickup. Yes, I do believe he is the type of player to add to increase the Brewers chances at a World Series. If the Brewers can pick up 3 WAR guys at the deadline sign me up.
  11. Thanks, missed it last night but will check it out in the future.
  12. I can't imagine anybody believes Arizona. They would be foolish to not take the best offer in what is sure to be a bidding war. They can sign him after the season if they really are that interested.
  13. Brewers get Ryan O'Hearn, that's it.
  14. The fans are the one saying don't rock the boat and Hoskins/Vaughn are good enough. The front office knows there are holes that should be addressed
  15. The umpire needs to do their job there and give additional time. Just common sense, same as when the ump gets hit the catcher will will talk to the pitcher.
  16. Even though I was barely a teenager back then it was known that the Brewers could have had Cone or at least blocked the move to Toronto. There was some excuses like the Brewers can't claim everybody but it will always be a what if. The Brewers actually scored 20 runs on the Blue Jays the game before Cone's debut and then the Brewers beat Cone the next day. If the Brewers could have closed out that final game I think they would have caught them but they lost. The Jays never lost back to back games the rest of the way. The Brewers played well in September and even had a better record than the Jays but the deficit was too much to overcome.
  17. Peralta tied Bill Travers for 9th all time in Brewers wins Saturday with 65. Two more wins gets him to 67 with Chris Bosio. Will have to stick around for 2026 to get beyond that.
  18. He isn't going to increase his trade value by sitting on the bench, don't see him getting enough opportunity to play
  19. Certainly an upgrade over Bauers and will be a while before he hits arbitration. Prefer this type of deal over sending away a starter with year of control like Patrick or Myers for a rental.
  20. I was one of those that said the Brewers committed too much to Woodruff but no he doesn't owe them anything. He had other offers on the table. On the flip side they don't owe anything to him if they go with a qualifying offer that may cost him money and offers.
  21. McMahon has been a below average hitter his entire career, not going to change now. Plus he makes way too much money, just not going to happen with the Brewers. Could potentially see a Josh Smith deal being made and the type of player the Brewers would go after with years of control. More difficult to pry Garcia from the Royals. Probably too much competition for Suárez.
  22. Even though Vaughn may very well return to the player he was with the White Sox he was one of the main reasons they swept the Dodgers. That in itself made this trade worth it, a small win and who knows it could turn into a big win.
  23. Would think Avans time on the 40 man is coming to an end. Rodriguez has been bad but would put Berroa ahead of Avans on the depth chart.
  24. No inside information, not even a rumor, just throwing stuff against the wall hoping for clicks at ESPN.
  25. Cam Devanney is finally getting called up to the majors, Royals select him. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/07/royals-select-cam-devanney-transfer-cole-ragans-to-60-day-il.html
