    You know... On second thought 2 runs won't be great either..

    The Nationals better not let Vaughn bat again in this game or they are up a creek. 1 run lead is not enough.

    He wasn't on our opening day roster.

    Man, I keep looking at bats to acquire and my eyes keep landing on Josh Naylor. He would cost less than Suarez by a decent margin and is a nice upgrade from Bauers. Our lineup against RHP would look so much better with Naylor included.

    Myers is worth so much more than a low level bat. If we take on the money Myers should get you Saurez straight up. If we ask for a salary offset then we would have to add something to the deal .. Carlos Rodriguez or a low level+ guy or something. Half a decade of a cheap middle of the rotation guy is so valuable! As others pointed out, Myers has a better resume than what Priester did and we sent over a nice package to get him. I wouldn't be surprised if Myers has more trade value than Suarez.

    Is there any way we can edit this thread's title? The misspelling of LeMahieu is giving me a mental complex and I'm not strong enough to overcome it.

    I don't believe so. I think that incentive is to encourage teams to have rookies on the opening day roster.

    Selflessly, amazing for the kid. Excited this enigma is happening here in Milwaukee. Selfishly, probably locks up ROTY or at least runner up and we will lose a year of control. Great again for him, too bad for us

    In his 17 at bats? Lol, ok. I don't know who said Perkins was Willie Mays. The OP asked who would play left if Collins moved to 2b and I think there is a pretty clear answer right now that it would be Chourio once Perkins is back. Don't overthink the answer.
  10. liveforoctober
    I can't speak for OP ... but the two scenarios in my head would be 1) Chourio (Perkins back to CF) or 2) This opens up a whole new trade opportunity to fix "the issue" if the issue is Ortiz. Instead of only having to find an infielder via trade, you can now get anyone in CF or LF and then shift the rest around.

    Has site activity increased by like 4x in the last 48 hours? It has been a minute in my eyes since there have been this many active threads constantly updating. The belief is growing it seems...

    Haha this makes it sound like he is 38yo and is 0-146 in his lifetime in the playoffs.

    The Kevin Seitzer hate around here has to stop.

    Where did we ever land on Yelich at 1b years ago? If he could learn how to scoop a throw it would sure solve a bunch of issues.

    The draft is this weekend and that can always play a factor. If the Brewers get another young middle infielder early that needs to go to A or A+ ... That suddenly makes Josh Adamczewski and one of the untouchables... Touchable? Then a deal for a SS where we are sending middle infielders back is more viable. Continue this piece of the convo next Monday...

    Who would've thunk it... Best 3b in the Central ;)
  17. liveforoctober
    I gotcha. I guess my response is that if we trade Rhys for DJ it would likely be Mona that gets released. So would I rather have Rhys/Mona or Vaughn/Lemahieu on the roster .. and I guess I would rather have Rhys/Mona because Mona can play 3rd and Vaughn needs to prove it beyond 10 at bats that this all was Chicago's fault. If Vaughn hits for 4 more weeks.. maybe we can revisit. Also, let DJ clear waivers and just grab him!

    Money could be an issue here? He is still owed roughly $12-$13mil this year and has a player option for $25 next year that I'd assume he will exercise. So in theory we could send Bauers/Cortez+ but we would be $8mil-ish light. So if the Yankees sent us ~$8mil we would be square in '25. Assuming he replaces Rhys next year we would be paying $8mil more for him next year than what Rhys is getting now. Would Bellinger be a QO candidate after the '26 season?

    You know, I'm coming around on a 7 man rotation format. I think it makes sense to trade Quintana and I'm for it if it works ... but Jose Quintana is going to win us playoff games. There is some pixie dust to this team and there are not 3 other guys I trust to start a Game 4 for us more than Quintana. In the last 72 hours now I've swung to wanting to keep him and resign him to a modest raise for next year. Mis is going to be on a pitch count down the stretch and Cortes is coming off of injury and their styles contrast so wildly... we should pair those two up? Let Miz throw gas for 4 innings and get a lead. Bring in the goofy soft tossing lefty to get us through the next 3+. We kind of need a long man out of the pen anyway to pair with Hall ... we should jettison Easton and bring Patrick back up for that role and he can be a safety for Priester should he need it. Let the 3 other vets have their usual schedules. Is this crazy? 1) Peralta 2) Mis/Cortes 3) Priester/Patrick 4) Quintana 5) Woodruff

    I have no ill will towards Civale - he was trying to do what he thought best for his career/pocket book BUT had he just taken a deep breath and let the situation play itself out we would have very likely traded him before 8/1 and he would have gone to a contender who needed rotation depth. Possibly he could have been starting in a playoff chase. Instead he spoke up for himself (which is fine), ends up on the 2nd worst team in baseball and has struggled, making him untradeable now? So he will have to remain in the rotation and turn this around in Chicago.. I'm wondering by betting on himself and speaking up if he is going to end up costing himself millions?

    I understand what you are saying but let me think out loud here for a second. You are asking if we should trade our starting first baseman to the Yankees for their backup 2nd baseman that they just released who has said he can't play 3rd anymore... in hopes he will start at 1st base for us to replace Hoskins? Or are we trading Hoskins so DJ can play 2b and Turang can move to short and then Bauers/Vaughn will handle the 1b duties? I am not sure either one of those scenarios makes us better and I would argue both make us worse. The Yankees would also need to send us like $14 million or something to cover the difference. I know we are just making up trade scenarios for the exercise of it .. but I don't think we need to try so hard to force a trade on this team. We should only be making trades that are clear upgrades... sometimes not making a move is the right move.

    What?
  23. liveforoctober
    okay, who wants to be the hero? Somebody better step up this inning.. Don't make Vaughn do it again in the 11th.
  24. liveforoctober
    Perkins/Hoskins

    Sometimes you just have to say the fun stuff out loud.
