  1. lol the weakest hit gets a run in that is baseball.
  2. Like I said yesterday I have more confidence in Houser and Teheran to be able to hold off the Braves than Peralta.
  3. Where did I post I used that site for this trade?
  4. For me it is all from scouts who I have spoken with and they believe he is a below average to above average depending on where he is playing. They have stated that 2B is probably his best position but he wouldn't be a liability at any that he could play at. By a liability they mean someone like Braun at 3B or Ozuna in the OF.
  5. I have more faith in Houser and Teheran keeping the Braves down than Peralta.
  6. Peralta is absolute garbage now. Probably should be sent to the bullpen.
  7. Black may not have a permanent position (Mitchell, Wiemer, Frelick and Chourio are all better defensively in the OF) right now but he isn't as bad as Keston was/is defensively. He may not have the arm to stay at 3B but range wise and glove wise he is fine there. The same for 2B and even CF though Mitchell and Wiemer are far better defensively in CF than Black is. I think Black gets a bit of a downgrade unfairly because of his defense. He may not be the greatest at 3B, 2B or CF but he isn't a liability either. I think he is just average maybe a bit below or above average depending on which position you put him at. The problem is that Black is behind Turang better defensively at 2B and behind Mitchell, Wiemer, Frelick and Chourio in the OF. The best defensive position for Black is also probably his worst right now. This could all change in the off season with a trade of Adames where Turang then goes to SS. Black then has a defined position where there isn't another prospect or player blocking him. Maybe Urias would block him at 2B but you could always just have Urias at 3B assuming he isn't traded also.
  8. I guess you missed the whole part of adding a better piece than Small but hey you do you.
  9. Brewers get: Soto Padres get: Frelick, Brown (SS), Small and Valerio (2B). Probably a little light there but I think it is close may need to add another piece better than Small.
  10. Sure and Keston Hiura would be the top prize for an Ohtani trade.
  11. Was it me or did Sophia say an f-you delivery when describing Milner's delivery?
  12. They are not contradictory. Top prospects normally only stay at AAA for a very short time. Majority of the top prospects are in AA and not AAA. The AAA teams are filled with AAAA players. The time top prospects are in AAA is usually two months at most. Majority of the time they are there only until they pass super 2 status. AAA is just not where top prospects stay for very long. If they play a full season at AAA it usually means they are not as good as the talent evaluators thought or they are injured. AAA is normally the shortest assignment for top prospects in the minor leagues.
  13. First AAA tends to be lower talent wise than AA there are far more career minor league and AAAA type players in AAA than there are in AA. If Black had a problem with being patient at the plate sure send him to AAA to work on that as he is going to face junk ball pitchers like Rea 90% of the time. AA is far better for Black than AAA is. AAA is just a spot you put your prospects when you want to call them up. It is basically just a holding spot when you are ready to move them to your big league roster. I would rather see Black get time at AA facing pitchers closer to what he will see in the majors than having him feast on AAA pitching.
  14. This channel makes me laugh: https://www.youtube.com/@habitual_linecrosser
  15. Jimenez left today's game with a groin injury.
  16. Going to have to swing at pitches in the zone today so working the count is not a viable strategy for todays game with this umpire.
  17. First time on the internet?
  18. I was thinking about Jimenez but I am not sure the White Sox will make him available. They probably should as they have other options at DH also in Vaughn, Sheets and Bennintendi. Talking about bad contracts I am glad the Brewers didn't sign Bennintendi like some wanted to. Preferred option from the White Sox would be Robert but he is definitely not available. If the Brewers could get Jimenez that would be a good #4 hitter and it would allow to drop Tellez to the 5th or 6th spot in the lineup. I think a lineup of Yelich, Contreras, Adames, Jimenez, Tellez would be a good 1-5 for the Brewers. From 6-9 it would then allow you to have Turang and Wiemer at the bottom of the order which really wouldn't matter as much as they are your 8 and 9 hitters what they do at the bottom of the order doesn't really matter as much. It would mean that Yelich would be playing more games in LF and Contreras would get less games at DH. I don't think you would want to have Jimenez in the field at all or at least try and limit him to only one or two games a week in the field. This is another team where you could see Urias going to also. Something like Urias, Lutz and Junk for Jimenez. I know Jimenez basically has negative value but I think that gets negated by the lack of good bats available in the trade market.
  19. Here is your answer.
  20. I think Urias will be traded and I think the Nationals will be a team interested in Urias. They can take the risk if Urias is good next year great then they can trade him. Someone will have to play 2B/SS/3B for the Nationals in '24 and even with his arbitration raise he will still be cheaper than a FA. I think something like Urias, Small and Carlos Rodriguez (OF) would be very close to what the Nationals will get back in return for Candelario.
