    I really liked the Restaurant To Be Named Later as it made some people annoyed over something really silly and dumb.

    I don't think BTV is wrong with their valuation on Ruiz or anyone who was traded today. Sometimes teams make bad trades or perceived to have made a bad trade. There are many of them like Aramis Ramirez to the Cubs and others that I am probably forgetting right now. Bad trades happen all the time. The BTV site isn't perfect but it is the best that we have to guess at what teams are valuing the players as. It is a good tool to use to figure out trades and values. It also helps in proofing value or seeing a different value based on how someone else views the information.

    I think the A's like Ruiz because of his speed. Their current stadium requires the player to cover a lot of ground. I think the Brewers got an excellent return for Ruiz. So the Hader trade now is Gasser, Contreras, Yeager and Payamps plus Lamet and Rogers. I would say that is a really good deal. No idea how the A's and Braves valued Ruiz but it seems as though they valued him higher than any independent scouting would have valued him at.

    Full deal

    Contreras is someone I have been wanting the Brewers to trade for awhile now.

    For fantasy football I can't remember and I don't want to look it up, but how was Hill's TD last night calculated from the fumble recovery? Would it be classified as a rushing TD? Also the yards he gained are those rushing yards? Do they just not count at all?

    I think Arroyo or McLain would be who the Reds would be looking to trade. Marte wouldn’t make any sense. Marte probably has to move to 3B. De La Cruz looks like he could play SS, 3B or CF. I don’t think the Brewers and Reds matchup all that well in a trade.

    I was thinking maybe a trade with the White Sox for Grandal. Something like Grandal, Kath and cash for Hiura/Bello/Lutz/Whitley/Kahle. Depending on how much the White Sox kick in they would get a better player than what is in the list now. But at about $5-8m you could include two of the players in the list and it would be about a fair trade. Brewers get more offense at the catcher position without sacrificing good prospects and the White Sox get out of the Grandal contract and free up some money for other free agents. At $5m the Brewers are only taking on about $13m of Grandals contract for '23. Maybe they need more and that would eliminate Kath from the trade. Kath is a high strikeout 3B who is very solid defensively at 3B. The biggest problem with him are the K's but he is still very young so there is still time for him to improve.

    I swear every time the Brewers select someone in the rule V draft it is the same people complaining and overreacting to it.

    I was in year three of mine. Maybe it is because mine was a BS in Finance and Accounting. Maybe nursing or others that have specialized fields are different. ?‍♂️?

    They must have changed something then since the early 2000’s. Transferring from one UW school to another was easy and all classes transferred. It was essentially if you take a class at UW-whatever it would transfer to any of the other UW schools just as if you took it at the school you are transferring to.

    That is the problem the balls are not the same. The deadened ball had more drag on it. The “Goldilocks” ball seems to not have that problem. If one ball flies farther than the other then that is a huge problem.

    Brewers stay at 18.
  14. nate82
    The dumbest part of all this is that MLB didn't even test for drag on the baseball for the new ones they introduced last year.

    The Cubs sure do love picking up Dodgers cast offs.

    If the Brewers are trading Adames, Burnes or Woodruff at the mid point of the season then the Brewers will be out of the playoff hunt. So a trade then makes sense for any of them.

    This is not entirely true. Depending on the school it is extremely easy to transfer. Transferring from UW-Madison to UW-Milwaukee absolutely nothing changes. If you are transferring from a private school to a public school or public to private like UW-Milwaukee to Marquette then yeah you could have some logistical issues though that maybe a semester at most. This isn't the 1950's or 1970's anymore majority of schools have the same classes and as long as you are transferring from a school that is in the same standard as the one you are transferring to or the one you are transferring from has a higher standard then you are perfectly fine. I did this as a junior I went from private to public and I graduated in the same time frame.

    That is a lot for Bell though close to what I thought he would get at about $15m annually. I think he is a better deal at $12-14m than at $15M.

    I believe the list is this now. The A's were removed in the previous CBA but are now back in the list. I think the Padres maybe removed now but I kept them in as I couldn't find anything if they have been removed or not and I do not believe their market score is above 100. The Braves and Astros (market scores above 100) have also been removed from the previous CBA and I don't see anything that they were added back. Diamondbacks, Orioles, Reds, Guardians, Rockies, Royals, Marlins, Brewers, Twins, Athletics, Pirates, Padres, Mariners, Rays. Don't ask on the calculation for market score it is only known by MLB.

    Doubtful on the rate hikes being pulled back. Maybe they won’t do a 50BP as they have planned and may just go with a 25BP. But another 75BP is also rumored to be likely. I think Crypto has another drop in it yet just like the market. Probably won’t see a jump up until end of December or mid January. May see a rally for both the market and Crypto for a few days and then see another dip or two before recovering around Christmas and New Years.

    Weeks was never the same after his wrist injury. Wrist injury's can kill a players power as you can't make the twitch movement as fast with your hands to catch up to 90+ mph fastballs. Even with that if I am the Brewers I am willing to take on that risk in trading Woodruff for Kirilloff. The Twins will need to include more than Arraez to get something more than a #3 type pitcher. Actually I am not even sure there is a #3 type pitcher out there on the trade market. If the Twins are shopping Arraez and just Arraez they are going to have to sell low on Arraez and get someone like Lauer or Houser. I don't think the Twins are going to find what they are looking for by shopping Arraez and they will need to include someone like Kirilloff to be able to make a deal happen. I think best case scenario for the Twins would be a Arraez for Garrett trade with the Marlins. I am not sure the Marlins would be interested in Arraez but that is literally the only fit I could find where it is just Arraez and not including someone like Kirilloff in a trade package.

    I'll say this again Jansen is over rated. Other than 2022 he hasn't put up a really good season. He also may break down quicker as he looks to be about a 90 game catcher and that is it. He is basically Narvaez before he was traded to the Brewers. No way I am giving up anyone more than Ruiz in a trade for Jansen. If the Blue Jays want more they can go pound sand Jansen is not worth trading any major prospect for and that includes Mitchell. If the Blue Jays would take Ruiz and Zamora for Jansen then fine but anything more than that and it is a waste of resources. I fully expect Jansen to drop from a 141 OPS+ to something around a 105-110 OPS+. If he has to play in over 90 games that will drop even more and you are looking at a 90-100 OPS+ catcher.

    Canterino would be the third piece in the deal. Would be Arraez, Kirilloff and Canterino which gets you close to Woodruff's value maybe replace Canterino with another pitching prospect. But does that really make the Twins better? I don't think the Twins will get what they want with just Arraez they will need to include more to get someone better than what they already have.
  25. nate82
    I don't believe he would. Arraez is about a 2 or 3 win player. That should give him a value of about $15m in surplus value while Lauer is about a 1-2 win player which gives you about $4m in surplus value. That is a $11m difference even if you up the amount on Lauer as he is a pitcher you would need to nearly triple his value for a one-to-one trade to work. I don't see the Brewers and Twins lining up anymore. I thought they lined up perfectly last year before the Brewers traded for Renfroe. I also think the Twins would be looking at Woodruff or Ashby and not Lauer or Houser. A Woodruff deal with Arraez in it would need to include more like Kirilloff and someone like Matt Canterino.
