Brewers Interested in Isiah Kiner-Falefa

Google says: The act of interpreting information or a situation in a way that casts it as favorable or desired, despite the fact that there is no evidence for such a conclusion; a wishful forecast. -
Also for the NBA it tends to be more a player’s league than a team’s league. You will find a lot of fans of Kobe or LeBron who just like the player but not the team they play on. The NBA is just different than the other leagues. The NBA marketing of its top players is 100 times better than all of the other leagues combined.

Only if the team name starts with a B for me. I have been in Phoenix for just over 10 years now and I don’t like the Dbacks, Cardinals, Suns or Coyotes. I think the Suns and Cardinals are the #1 and #2 team here in Phoenix. The Dbacks and Coyotes are a distant 3rd and 4th.

The Tyler Black and Brock Wilken factor in trades
nate82 replied to Scooterfletcher's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
You can never have too many infielders. There will always be an injury or someone just doesn’t perform or needs someone to platoon with. You can also rotate players between DH and an INF spot. I wouldn’t worry about the position the Brewers get back in any trade. If the best prospect is an INF great if they are an OF that is also great or a pitcher which also would be great. -
For me Lux would have to be the 4th piece in the deal. If the Brewers still had Toro I would have included Toro in the deal for Lux. That is basically the value I see of Lux he is worth a Toro and no more.
-
Just no on Lux being in any deal for Burnes or Adames.

A Way Too Early 2024 MLB Draft Thread
nate82 replied to Joseph Zarr's topic in MLB Draft & International Signings
Yes it impacts the bonus pool the Twins last year got a boost when they moved up. -
That was a whole lot of words to just repeat what everyone knows already.
-
This is a good signing. Always need SP and RP depth so this should help there.
-
Bell probably because he isn’t a good fit for the scheme being ran and he has hands of stones and is a poor route runner. Dike is a bit surprising.
-
Spring Training is what is coming.
-
Adames is the heart of the team. He is the leader of the Brewers.
-
Ohtani?

Other than Clemson and FSU that conference is just a bunch of nobodies. The ACC is basically the Big Ten West there really isn't a powerhouse in that conference and you have two maybe teams in FSU and Clemson if everything goes right for them. Clemson and FSU are basically Wisconsin and Iowa. Maybe a bit better but not really. Miami tries to be a good program but they have been good then awful then ok then awful then awful and then maybe good again. Such an inconsistent program that is in a prime spot to be a really good program.

I think this series is by far the best series HBO has ever done. It is far better than Game of Thrones and other series. Some good acting and everything pulls you in. It is very gritty and represents WWII fighting rather well. Much better than Saving Private Ryan did at least. A quick edit. I wish they would do something like this for the Korean war.
-
Count me not all that impressed with Hall. To me he is the one you want to stay away from.
-
Looks like they are more willing to spend than trade. I think they will get Cease and then sign someone like A. Chapman or maybe Hader. I just don’t believe the O’s will give up the prospects needed in a Burnes trade or a Burnes and Williams trade.

First transfer to the Badgers so far:

Yes and No. Adding more teams allows you to move teams up that you wouldn't if you are looking at less teams. There is an argument to be made that Alabama isn't a top 4 team and would be maybe 5th or 6th with Georgia or FSU taking the #4 or #5 spot. I think FSU is the 4th best team but I wouldn't put them in a top 4 in a 4 team playoff structure. I would put Georgia, Alabama, Texas and Ohio State over them. With a top 12 team playoff the difference between 4-9 isn't as critical as all get in. In a 12 team field I think it goes 1. Michigan 2. Washington 3. FSU 4. Texas 5. Alabama 6. Georgia 7. Ohio State 8. Oregon 9. Missouri 10. Oklahoma 11. Mississippi 12. Penn State.

Burnes value will be closer to what the Padres gave up for Snell in 2020. So a top 50 prospect and then a couple of organizational top 15-20 prospects. That is Burnes true worth. If you want to put it in a dollar value Burnes has a value of about $35mm assuming he has another 4+ WAR year. Add in the pick which for the Braves would be o A top 50 ranked prospect is about $30mm in value which will be in the 3rd round as the Braves will be a CBT Payor with the acquisition of Burnes. So lets add $5mm to bring this to about $40mm in excess value which is more than what Burnes is worth but I am taking in a serious bidding war for him. If the Brewers hold onto him until the deadline it will be less than $40mm in excess value probably around $25-30mm. Which means you would have someone like Waldrep headlining the deal for Burnes. So with AJ Smith-Shawver who is a 50 FV prospect which puts him at about $25mm in excess value. So we are about $15mm short of a Burnes trade number. $40mm is the top of the market so anything within +/- $5mm should be accurate enough. Waldrep is also a 50 FV prospect so we have two players totaling $50mm in value. That is $10mm over Burnes valuation with his draft pick associated with him. It is an absolute overpay by the Braves if you are including Waldrep with AJ Smith-Shawver. You can get one but you are not getting both. The one year of control of Burnes is what is holding back his value. If this were last year yes you would be correct Burnes would command both Waldrep and AJ Smith-Shawver but not with only 1-year of control left.
-
No it will not. You are overestimating Burnes actual worth if you think you are getting both back.
-
That would be too much or that is all you would get in return and I don't believe the Braves would be interested in trading both of those pitchers. You could get Waldrep or AJ Smith-Shawver but not both. You might be able to get someone like Owen Murphy but definitely not Waldrep and AJ Smith-Shawyer in the same deal.

FSU played one ranked team this year. I don't have a problem with leaving FSU out. Their schedule was nothing but cupcakes all year. They just barely beat the 15th ranked team backup QB or no backup QB that is not a good look. Yes they went undefeated but who did they actually play to go undefeated? I would probably go Michigan, Texas, Alabama/Georgia and Washington. To me it is 1 Michigan 2 Texas 3 Alabama/Georgia 5 Washington 6 Ohio State 7 FSU.
-
Sure but this player did this in their age 21 season in MLB maybe the Brewers should have sent him down because he sucked that year and definitely wouldn't have become a HoF player nope not even possible.
