The Brewers were also confident in the wonder scrub lefty they got for Garret Cooper, and posters were convinced we were too deep for Cooper to ever get time here. How'd that work out? This deal is even dumber than that deal.
While I initially supported the Hader trade, I thought there would be another big trade made. I never thought that on the day after the deadline, the Brewers would still have a fulltime DH and cleanup hitter and with 712 OPS. That's just pathetic.
Ownership only cares about doing just barely enoughto put people in the stands. You want the Brewers to go for it and chase a World Series birth? Stop buying tickets.
Since he last pitched in the majors, Rosenthal had thoracic outlet syndrome surgery and hip labrum surgery. He's 36 years old. He's presently dealing with a hamstring strain.
He's no sure thing he becomes available in September, and if he does, he's unlikely to make it to October.
I love how you keep calling Rosenthal a great reliever despite the fact that he doesn't even actually pitch, while you call a top 20 prospect Peters "a low level guy".
Meanwhile, we have Pedro Severino pinch hitting in big spots and playing 1st base. Seems like we must have made some mistakes a long the way.
You literally said "force". So either the offer wasn't as good, or he didn't want to come to Milwaukee. I'm guessing we didn't make as good of offer. Now we have up a top 20 prospect to acquire his 10 innings.
Stearns is good because of the understanding of pitching he brought to the organization.
The trades and free agent signings have not been spectacular by any means.
Teams that win in the post season are consistently the teams that win at the deadline.
No, he's one of the worst hitters on the team. We have 9 hitters with a higher OPS, and that doesn't include Hiura, who outpaces Cutch by 89 points.
He's not good, and hasn't been for years.

After the Brewers get Bell, we should move on from McCutchen. Attanasio will need to be shown why Cutch sucks, but it's the best thing for the versatility of the roster.

He's not saying trade then for each other, just asking the team to both sell and buy in separate deals.
I wouldn't want Contreras catching for my team, but as a DH he be a monster upgrade over McCutchen.
