    Wow. I mean Cortes has been injured essentially all year. But trading him for someone who is barely a roster filler is just surprising. If we couldn't get a UT or reliever on the market because the costs were too high, how was the team not able to get some of those costs back for a MLB caliber starting pitcher?? We will never know how these things pan out, but this is just so surprising when I think any reliver could have gotten a half decent prospect in this crazy market and a starting pitcher got us a 28 year old who was good at AA???

    OH wait, we actually did trade a pitcher 😬
  3. biedergb
    Hey at least we didn't trade away our closer right ..... 🙄

    Absolutely yes, but it is important to try to add someone of some value to that clubhouse to indicate that you do and want to try to improve in any way. I'm guessing the acquisition costs are too high, and the Brewers are prudently not wanting to sell Pratt, Henderson etc for a player who may benefit them for a few months, and those assets are best used for future teams (either as being on our roster or for a future trade with hopefully better return) Crazy trade deadline day, a lot of name players moving and some higher end prospects going too.

    I will take a stab, as Tyler Locklear is a lot like Tyler Black except Locklear has had production the past two years, so maybe more Blake Burke in comparison? It would like Tyler Black traded in '24. Juan Burgos seems like a Carlos Rodriguez comp, but maybe Coleman Crow at higher end. Older, more advanced, good stats, but not a top of the rotation guy, but mid rotation to probably back-end/middle reliever. Maybe Chad Patrick at best. Hunter Cranton is hard to comp since he was a '24 draft pick, but a college pitcher. So maybe more in line with Holobetz who we traded in the Priester deal. I would have said DeBerry but he has no where near the velo that Cranton is reported to have in write ups. But a fringe top 30 guy (or more like top 40 in our system). So highest end comp is Burke/Patrick/Holobetz, and low end comp is Black/CFRodgriguez/DeBerry. I will look forward to be proven wrong by the prospect gurus 😉

    Wednesday nights haven’t been the best it seems - I usually have a meeting and dinner so miss many of them and seems the last few weeks I’ve thought “Wow I guess I didn’t miss much” - but hey old brain so I may be wrong and the recency bias of tonight makes me believe it. i will have to look it up later just to see if my gut reaction is close, or way off base.

    I compared my list to the consensus and was pretty much in alignment with most picks, only a few folks was I more than 3 spots off - I was much higher on Luis Lara (I had him 8, where the group had him down at 15) and Brady Ebel (NR and would have been #21, and I had him at 14). Otherwise the group was much higher on Yoho (#18, and I would have had him 22-24). I either overlooked Bishop Letson, or really downgraded him due to shoulder injury (I think the latter) and he would have been #21 for me, but was still #12 on the consensus board. Otherwise Boeve and Meccage were only 3 spots different. We have really a consensus top 6 (Made/Pena/Pratt, followed by Henderson/Quero/Dinges) then it can vary quite a bit.

    It was frustrating to watch if you couldn’t tell from my incessant posts. Whoops. I was venting a little.

    Welp turned on to Shuckers to watch Hunt’s nice outing. And he’s out after 5 IP (rain delay in between) and 75 pitches. Root is in now. I’ll catch up later. But the DSL Gold now could be a 1-run loss from an organizational sweep.
  10. biedergb
    Can’t take anything away from Renz. He has a very solid debut. Impressive outing. Hopefully part of a nice group of A/ACL pitchers who can develop and advance together- Dorchies, Meccage, Hernandez, Dubanewicz, Tobias, Renz, Mercado. Nice group of teenagers.
  11. biedergb
    Home plate ump can’t mess this up. A. Reyes comes in and induces a grounder. Yup out #6 to finally end the game. Sheesh 🙄
  12. biedergb
    I’m sorry this ump has me just yelling at my screen. These are just pathetic calls. I’m not sure what else but embarrassing And another walk. Had two or theee strikeouts there. Going to have to get out #6 in this inning. 🙄
  13. biedergb
    Renz is not missing by much. But he is getting zero close calls. I mean nothing. Just poor form
  14. biedergb
    This ump is awful. I mean that’s the 2nd strike three he missed. And now a hit and a run. Game should have been over. C’mon you have to be better than that this is professional baseball. That is just a bad night of calling a game. Yikes
  15. biedergb
    Wow umps somehow blew the count. Really. In a real game, 9th inning and everyone including the Augusta announcer believed it was 2-2 and then strike 3. But the only one who matters is the home plate ump who thought it was 3-1 I don’t make this up then next pitch is a walk 🤷‍♂️
  16. biedergb
    Renz gives up his first hit, but then gets a K swinging. Two more outs to close it out Talking about closing it out, Seppings gets the K. And TRats hold on for a win.
  17. biedergb
    Seppings making it interesting after TRats take the lead. 2 outs in the 9th, but 2 singles and a walk bases are loaded. C’mon Jack!
  18. biedergb
    Hey Blake Burke with 4 walks. Ok that’s a sign of life
  19. biedergb
    Anderson plays CF well. Definitely has the tools to play there. And his offense is starting to become respectable.
  20. biedergb
    And I turn it on and Renz walks two …ok. Maybe I don’t watch 😂
  21. biedergb
    I’m here. Catching up on game day. Haven’t turned on the games …. Yet
  22. biedergb
    I am saddened but not surprised. Dikember had a lot of struggles this year, but had a magical 2024. Hope he catches on somewhere and finds success on the mound again,
  23. biedergb
    Yeah would love @Spencer Michaelis to weigh in on Holden and Bentley since you even admitted you thought they were so unlikely to sign. Or any draft profiles that can be added while respecting those sites paywall EDIT: I see @Jake McKibbin started to do that on the general discussion page.
  24. biedergb
    I would imagine that they kept that carrot of a $800k offer out to someone to bite, and no takers from the 12-16 round crowd. All we can ask is the organization makes the serious effort to sign quality players, and it seems they likely did. This is a far cry from what transpired in the late 90s and a little into the early 00s when it seemed the team didn't try to maximize signing draft picks, or going for higher upside players. I also can say that I am fully in the Holden camp as my new favorite from this draft - watched a couple interviews on him, and he is so athletic with a chance to have a big power arm. Hopeful for development (command/control), health and well development and health!
  25. biedergb
    It’s close to that already
