  1. For Hader sure if the price is right. I would stay away from Snell as that is going to be pricey and I don't think the returns would be equal to or better than the prospect capital being given up.
  2. Giolito may not have been a superstar but he was definitely worthy of the prospect ranking. When you get 10+ WAR from a pitcher that is something you would expect out of a highly ranked prospect. I haven't looked but I assume out of all the pitching prospects ranked when Giolito was ranked he is probably in the top 10 if not in the top 3 of just about everything compared to his peers when ranked.
  3. This would also be a year where the Brewers have a comp A pick. So after the first round assuming Adames, Burnes and Woodruff all decline their QO and sign with another team that would be 4 picks after the 1st round for the Brewers in ‘25. A bit of a gamble but no more than gambling on the prospects you would get in return via trades.
  4. Another 25BP raise is rumored to occur. It is supposed to be today but haven’t seen anything yet from the FED.
  5. Give it a year or two and he is probably their head coach. Another possibility could be Iowa or Michigan State.
  6. The Brewers were willing to trade with the Cubs for Bryant or Rizzo. The Cubs on the other hand were not willing to trade Bryant specifically to a rival because of optics. It is why they got a poor return on Bryant. I would stay far away from DeJong and Anderson.
  7. Leonhard will be joining the University of Illinois as a senior football analyst. https://theathletic.com/4719797/2023/07/25/jim-leonhard-illinois-football-wisconsin/?source=user_shared_article
  8. lol the weakest hit gets a run in that is baseball.
  9. Like I said yesterday I have more confidence in Houser and Teheran to be able to hold off the Braves than Peralta.
  10. Where did I post I used that site for this trade?
  11. 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.
  12. I have more faith in Houser and Teheran keeping the Braves down than Peralta.
  13. Peralta is absolute garbage now. Probably should be sent to the bullpen.
  14. 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.
  15. I guess you missed the whole part of adding a better piece than Small but hey you do you.
  16. 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.
  17. Sure and Keston Hiura would be the top prize for an Ohtani trade.
  18. Was it me or did Sophia say an f-you delivery when describing Milner's delivery?
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
