    Bauers is 30. He'll have suitors no doubt but he's been around a long time. One year as a slightly above average regular isn't going push his salary out of the Brewers price range and he chose to return to Milwaukee in 2025 on a minor league deal so I think they can work out something. Mitchell makes the most sense on this list. No way they deal Patrick. I think he's the future closer.

    Leonard is an interesting case. He came from farm systems of the Dodgers and the Braves where he put up decent numbers. As an example he led the Gwinnett Braves with 20 dingers in 2025. He's going to break through with some organization pretty soon. Might be a guy who would interest the Tigers an add on to a Skubal deal. They had him before, so they might want a second look.

    I get the skepticism about Lara. He's even shorter than Sal and you could write off some of his numbers to a fast start. But the reality is that his AAA numbers have stayed remarkably consistent for 2 months. 38 walks compared to 31 K's and he's only 21. Perkins is hanging on to a roster spot by a thread. Give Lara a month heading into the deadline. If he performs, Frelick becomes a trade candidate. Somebody will bite.

    I can remember quite a few times in his career when Moore came up when they needed a big hit. I always felt confident when he was in that spot and he often came through. It never felt like he was overmatched. RIP and thanks for the thrills Charlie Moore!

    I hope they hold on to Ortiz as long as possible. His value to the pitching staff is immense. I think they can do without Hamilton. He's a gimmicky player, not a very good shortstop, and has shown no power on a team that desperately needs more.
  6. JohnBriggs12
    He doesn't have a lot of time. Lara is raking at AAA and walking more than he strikes out. Bauers is certainly capable in left field and if they want to get both Bauers and Vaughn in the lineup it will be at the expense of Mitchell. The next month is critical not only for Mitchell but also for Rengifo and Hamilton as Williams and Pratt heat up.

    I think the Miz for Cy Young campaign needs to get out there, He leads the NL in K's per inning for a starter by more than 2.5 K's. He's 3rd in fewest hits per 9 innings, just a shade behind Skenes. I don't get how his WAR is not in the top 10. That's ridiculous.

    Unfortunately, Murphy had him batting behind two slumping hitters, Hamilton and Mitchell.

    Black and Bauers are redundant. Bauers has the edge there too

    Henderson has 26 K's, and a 1.02 ERA at Nashville in 17 innings. He's a major league caliber starting pitcher with nothing to prove at AAA
  11. JohnBriggs12
    Frelick has the same number of HR as Pete Crow-Armstrong. He'll be fine.
  12. JohnBriggs12
    I still think Patrick could be a valuable late inning reliever so that might be a logical move to make room for any of Priester, Henderson or Crow.
  13. JohnBriggs12
    Do you hold on to him until Koenig returns? Do you replace him with Hall and move Drohan into Hall's middle inning role? Or do you roll the dice with Brian Fitzpatrick? Bottom line is Zerpa is not doing the job
  14. JohnBriggs12
    With all due respect to Tyler Black, Greg Jones, and Blake Perkins, I think it's time to free Luis Lara. Putting Black and Molitor in the same sentence is a joke and I saw Molitor's first game in the big leagues.

    Vaughn took BP on the field last night which means he's close to a rehab assignment so 4 weeks is a little pessimistic. The schedule in May is brutal. They are already falling off the pace.
