    I do wonder why they always project Contreras to be lower. He has proven three years in a row he is a premier hitter and only entering his prime.

    I doubt it, Parker was washed up in 1991 and likely would not have ended well with him, could only imagine how bad it would have been if they traded Molitor in 1991. It was doomed to fail no matter which route was chosen with Parker.

    I would consider Durbin a near lock to make the team, still hoping for another signing so he is more of a bench guy than starter. Not much confidence in Monasterio and not sure what to think of Dunn considering he never came back from the injury and then struggled in the Dominican league during the off season. Might be best if they are both in the minors to at least start the year. Not sure why they keep on hanging on to Capra when he has not options so maybe they are even thinking of him as a bench option if no further upgrades. Would not have a problem with Black on the bench as Bauers got a ton of time last year.

    It will only mantain if he ends up being a HOF player which is still a longshot.

    I would take the money for my family. Being an accountant it would be a burden to pay taxes on what the Pirates gave me without any cash. If I sell the card I pay taxes but now have cash to pay the taxes plus money to do whatever I want. Also, would sell that card ASAP as he is hot now but that goes fast especially for pitchers.

    No, he had spent time in the majors with the Dodgers in 2023 as well so is five days over a year of service. Of course they could send him to the minors again in 2025 and get that extra year. I kind of like the idea of Martinez getting the Bauers role this year but don't think they will do that considering he has no AAA experience. They have more flexibility with Black/Martinez in that role with their options and kind of stuck with Bauers or at least a longer leash if he makes the team.

    JB Bukauskas will be a non-roster invitee after accepting his outright assignment to AAA. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/01/jb-bukauskas-accepts-outright-assignment-with-brewers.html

    JB's 4th option was granted in 2024 and don't necessarily carry forward to the next season. I have not seen anything that he has a 4th option for 2025.

    1/15/21 may end up as one of the most important dates in Brewers history as they signed 16 year old Jackson Chourio.
  10. Outlander
    The same thing was said about Lucroy, it doesn't end well for catchers. Conteras could be one of the exceptions but the Brewers shouldn't be the one taking that risk. The brewers have him through age 29 which is great, One of the large markets can pay him for his declining years. Would not be interested in trading him right now.
  11. Outlander
    It is amazing what once reputable places like SI will now put out there.

    Parker's All Star days were not behind him as he was an All-Star for the Brewers. Would add Jim Abbott, played his final season with the Brewers. He wasn't good but did get his two career hits as a Brewer, which is impressive. Was also kind of excited when they picked up Tom Brunansky in 1993 but he was horrible as a Brewer. Julio Franco was another in 1997 but he ended up playing another 10 years so not exactly end of the line for him even though his first game in MLB was in 1982.

    Freddy wasn't mentioned either so quite a bit of the rotation was overlooked. I think it is a lot to ask Myers to improve on from his prior season. However, there is a lot to like about him, he continued to play well down the stretch and into the playoff game he pitched. It is amazing where he was at in 2022 and where he is now.
  14. Outlander
    It depends on how the season plays out. Probably best case scenario two of Woodruff, Cortes, Civale and Hoskins(longshot) get a qualifying offer but my guess when all is said and done only one of those players get a qualifiying offer from the Brewers. Zero isn't out of the question though with the injury history.
  15. Outlander
    Kind of surprising he is still #5 on prospect lists here. If Black was gone tomorrow I don't think the Brewers lose much but would be mad if they included Made (#6) in a deal.
  16. Outlander
    No price is too low for Dasani Water but those are very reasonable prices for some of the others, lower than high school or even youth hockey concession prices.
  17. Outlander
    I'm with you, think he will have a productive year. He no doubt is not worth what they are paying him but I am highly skeptical the Brewers will spend what they will pocket on a Hoskins trade so a trade makes them worse. It will hurt the bottom line this season but there are no long term consequences to keeping him. Black will get more opportunities and they will find a way to play him if he produces.
  18. Outlander
    Will be interesting to see if the game tomorrow is treated more like an All-Star Game or really trying to win with the only thing at stake another $300,000 which isn't that much for star NBA players and less than star players make per game.
  19. Outlander
    Williams and Cortes are in the same boat, if they were healthy and productive they would have received a QO from the Brewers. It doesn't matter that the Brewers don't want to spend $21 million on a reliever, they know someobody will and the Brewrers want the pick. Probably riskier with Cortes and his injury at the end of the year.
  20. Outlander
    The two series in July against the Dodgers should be more interesting with Cortes on the team at least.
  21. Outlander
    Looking forward to seeing what Uribe can do this year, his demotion means he is still under a year of service so have a full 6 years with him still. No need to give up on him. The suspension is annoying but think he can be a big part of the bullpen in 2025 so hope they get that out of the way early so it isn't an issue when determining who to call up.
  22. Outlander
    Would have been nice to have Smith as a shuttle option during the season, hopefully nobody wants to deal with Crow coming off an injury.
  23. Outlander
    I'm not understanding what you are trying to say here.
  24. Outlander
    The Brewers getting pick 34 in the 2024 draft covered for that.
  25. Outlander
    Glad they held onto him last year, he was due for a bounceback year and looking forward to who they draft.
