    The problem is we keep doing this and the guy struggles. Eventually, we're going to have to learn to sell-high on players and not get so attached. Gomez was an interesting case-in-point. There were some so attached to Carlos Gomez they would have given him 20-million a year. Glad we sold-high there. But we often don't (Guerra).

    Personally, I could see Bickford shoot back up our lists this season. He just needs to throw. One of the more underrated prospects hidden in our system. I liked the Bickford acquisition as it has a high-floor as I think he could handle a bullpen assignment at least when he peaks. Thoughts?

    NO thanks! Trading Harrison in any package that does not get us an ACE is a silly proposition imo...I am not on the Archer or Cobb train, they just aren't going to be difference makers, in that they can get us over the hump to a playoff appearance. Trading away our future for either guy is just not smart. I like Harrison, but IMO we are starting to overrate him a bit. His progression was great to see and scouts love his athleticism, but he's never played above High A and isn't particularly young for his level anymore. His numbers between Appleton and Carolina showed nice progression -- not domination. I'm hoping for even more of a breakout from him next year, but he's still got a long ways to go. Given their interest in Quintana and Gray last year I doubt Stearns would hesitate for a second to pull the trigger on that deal. For what its worth the Rays turned down a much better deal than that last off-season from the Astros that included 3 top 50 prospects. Uhh yeah! I'm a HUGE Harrison fan but let's remember he was almost written off the prospect planet a season ago. If they offered this deal up I'd accept it immediately. Harrison even with his success at high-A and the AFL STILL isn't a top-100 prospect in most evaluators eyes. This may change, but yes, this is clear over-inflation.

    I was super-high on Diaz coming into this season. Still going to be very young for his level. Before the season I pegged him as the future at 2B but now I see them going the Dubon-route. Anyone see a rebound-season in 2018?

    I agree. I would view it as a shame if they never investigated whether Hader could be a dominant starter. It didn't hurt Andrew Miller before he went to this type of multi-inning, multi-batter relief-role. It's a gamble against injury but one we have to take in a market with very few avenues to an ace.

    I was so proud of the Brewers when they took the splurge and signed Lara to the most they'd every signed a Latin-American FA before. People still holding out hope that this 20-year-old can produce or just a $3-million-plus-dollar waste?

    Is this guy just snaking my theme? I posted the other two. Not trying to "snake" the theme, but felt that a player who broke out deserved more attention. Dude, it's all good. But you used my exact phrasing.

    I might deal Phillips. But there's no way they're letting Brinson walk for Odorizzi. They wouldn't let him walk for Sonny Gray.

    My favorite is the 2011 Braun All-Star jersey to wear. It's unique and I usually get a positive comment or two on it. But, because it says "National" on the front I have had times at MP where people have asked why I'm wearing a Nationals jersey. A couple of people were smart-asses about it. Then they see the Brewers patch on the sleeve and realize they're idiots.

    Yeah......no.

    In the same style as my Corey Ray thread, how do we feel about Trent Clark at this point? Also, can anyone tell me if they got him out of the "golf grip" or not?
  13. sheetskout
    Tell me about it. I was sure he'd be huge. Still own all of these. http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i229/sheetskout/Prospect%20Portfolio/2004_Bowman_Chrome_Angel_Salome_XFr.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i229/sheetskout/Prospect%20Portfolio/2004_Bowman_Chrome_Angel_Salome_Gol.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i229/sheetskout/Prospect%20Portfolio/angelSalomeRefs2.jpg

    I see all the talent in the world, but I am torn at this point. Let me get your honest opinions on where you feel Corey Ray is at this point.

    Fun fact: If you go by Fangraphs WAR Asdrubal Cabrera was better this season than Orlando Arcia. Take that for what it's worth. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=ss&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&type=8&season=2017&month=0&season1=2017&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0

    Chris Archer has surpassed 194IP for the last four years including the last three being 200IP campaigns. He's K'd more than 233 each of the last three years. He's 29 years old and is under financial control through the next four seasons at a maximum salary of 11-million. Chris Archer is the Brewers wet-dream right now. He's exactly what we're looking for to push into the playoffs but it'll never happen.
  17. sheetskout
    There's absolutely no way they'd trade Chris Archer straight up for Domingo Santana. If this was offered I'd accept before the period ended the sentence.
  18. sheetskout
    Would they send him to the AFL "cold" though? Can't wait until Bickford returns. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
  19. sheetskout
    Agreed. This ruined Jean Segura a couple of years ago. Move him.
  20. sheetskout
    Thought the exact same thing. I still think Ray will be a tremendous ballplayer.
  21. sheetskout
    Because Lucroy is about to enter free agency and we want nothing to do with that. We don't have the luxury of rentals even if we are showing some success. Stay the course. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    I couldn't agree more especially with this upcoming draft and our current status with position players. The only position player that I'd check on would be a C like Schwarz because of our depth there but I fully expect the Brewers to draft an arm coming up. But, given our prospective playoff-timing (2-3 years), assuming a P is selected do they go college-arm to try to fit that time-schedule or a project like a HS arm. I know there may be BPO responses coming but I honestly don't think the Brewers will take that approach in this specific draft.
  23. sheetskout
    The Brinson/Mike Cameron comps are valid. Roughly the same size and even look similar in the box. I see some similarities with Adam Jones as well.
  24. sheetskout
    We're not in the place anymore like 2008 where we need the playoff appearance simply because we hadn't seen one for 26 years. We need to take the next step and build for sustained success.
  25. sheetskout
    And also a very good, ready prospect in Raimel Tapia.
