    Both teams say no. Brewers perspective they are giving up too much control for an about a half year rental. For the Dbacks side Myers has looked blah in the majors. I think they would prefer someone else over Myers. Probably someone with less than a year in the majors already. Patrick probably makes more sense for them than Myers.

    The 5 year cap hit was $22.5m for the Bucks it is now $20.2m. Explanation from Bobby Marks who is a super genius when it comes to the NBA cap calculations.

    That link doesn’t say they are going to trade Suarez. Actually it said nothing at all. Mostly speculation by the journalist than anything else.

    I don't think the Dbacks would do this trade. I also don't believe Suarez is even available or will even be traded. The player that will probably be traded or they will try to trade is Lourdes Gurriel Jr.. It is also possible if they are fully out of it they will try and trade is Naylor. I think the Dbacks will keep Suarez and try to resign him in the off season. I believe they think they can keep him long term and possibly move him to DH or 1B going forward. The Dbacks really love Suarez and I think they will prefer to keep him on the team and just take a pick if he does sign with someone else.

    I didn't see this posted but Jack Bauer decided to go to Mississippi State and forgo going to the MLB and that is why he was not drafted. https://www.clarionledger.com/story/sports/college/mississippi-state/2025/07/14/jack-bauer-mlb-draft-mississippi-state-baseball/85199243007/

    The value of the team increasing has no bearing on signing FA's. The only time you get that value is when you sell and well if the owner is selling they are not picking up a FA. So why even include this? Operating profits sure I get that but team value? The only way to get at that value would be to sell and to sell fully. MLB has rules for borrowing and needs to approve the loans before a team can get one. So borrowing on the teams value isn't really an option other than in an emergency. The most recent team to do a loan were the Padres and it was for $50mm for payroll in 2023. I don't believe MLB would allow teams to take out a loan just to sign FA's.

    I get to work from home today because of a water main break at the building. Have been in the office 100% since March. Feels nice not having to drive to work today.

    He didn't look all too happy about it either.

    Jackson so far in the summer league is not impressing the Bucks. He may only play if there is an injury or during garbage time only during the season. Jackson is going down the Beauchamp route where he will be traded or released at some point this season. I believe the Bucks were hoping Jackson would show something at the summer league so they could possibly put him in a trade with Kuzma and not have to include a 1st in that trade.

    More likely a 1B.

    My guess here is Josh Hammond.

    Hey the Rockies did something smart?

    The Cardinals are going to get Holliday aren't they?

    Depending on how much Kuminga would sign for it could be do able without trading Kuzma but I think his first year would have to be low like really low. Possible but not likely. I think the Warriors want to move on from Kuminga and they have been actively looking for someone to do a sign and trade as Kuminga doesn't fit into their style of play with Curry. Kuminga is more of a shot creator and kind of needs the ball to be helpful and that is the exact opposite of what you want with someone like Curry. He is also not really a fit with the Bucks but right now the Bucks only have Giannis who can somewhat create for himself and that is it. Which means Giannis will get triple teamed a lot. Which for Curry that isn't a problem but for Giannis it is a huge problem. So you need a second shot creator with Giannis. So Kuminga makes sense for the Bucks. The Bucks will need to include a third team and I am not even sure who that would be who would want to take on Kuzma. It sounds like Beal will be signing with the Clippers along with Paul.

    The Bucks are looking to do a sign and trade for Kuminga? Would be nice if they could pull it off but no idea how. https://www.si.com/nba/bucks/news/bucks-exploring-blockbuster-trade-with-warriors-for-breakout-forward

    Buyout for Micic.

    I thought the Brewers had a zero chance against the Dodgers or at least that is what I have been told.

    I don't think WiFi is going to work here. I know there are some outdoor WiFi extenders but I have heard mostly negative things about them. You could also try a WiFi booster but you are going to run into the same problem more than likely. Another option could be coax cable and use MoCA, but that will require you to dig a ditch from one cabin to the next. Assuming the land is owned by both parties and no one else you should be able to dig a ditch and lay the coax cable from one property to the next. https://www.screenbeam.com/wifihelp/wifibooster/what-is-moca-why-do-i-want-it/

    ATV rental then?

    I think the Braves would want Chourio in return for Acuna. I believe that is where the trade starts and ends with. Neither team would do the trade. Well the Braves may but I think they would want someone else along with Chourio.
  21. nate82
    The buyout would have been more than the stretch more than likely. For example if Dame was owed $30mm this year and next and the Bucks paid $10mm that would only be a $10mm savings his cap hit would still be $20mm.

    I know I should be excited by the Turner signing but this feels like the Monroe signing. I am not sure why I feel like this maybe it is just my bias of thinking the Bucks needed to do a hard reset. None of the stats or anything like that back this up but I have this feeling that Turner is just another Monroe or Mason signing.

    Where did I compare him to Soto?
  24. nate82
    There hasn’t been a superstar player traded in a while who would be a rental. Closest would be Soto but he had a few years of control when the Padres got him. If there was a superstar bat or starter you would see a top 50 prospect moved. For Suarez I just don’t see the Dbacks giving him up for anything less. They have this weird attachment to him and still see themselves as a playoff team.
  25. nate82
    The Dbacks probably won’t trade Suarez. The Dbacks still see themselves as a playoff team. They also just got about $1bn to redo their stadium so I think they will be hesitant on trading players from their MLB club. If they do trade someone I think it will be Naylor and not Suarez. They may also trade their pitchers. For whatever reason they are extremely hesitant or unwilling to trade Suarez. If the Dbacks do put Suarez on the trade market you will have to give up someone like Luis Pena as the headliner. There will be a lot of teams bidding for Suarez which will increase the cost to acquire him. Suarez is not a superstar that I would be comfortable in giving something up for.
