  1. I like Miley a lot but the question is whether the money will be right considering he’s a pretty big risk. Brewers want to be shrewd with resource allocation and risking substantial cash on an aging guy may not be their move.
  2. Combination of a player who is expected to regress to his norm and not risking capital on a 35 year old. As well as he played last year, that’s not how this group is going to allocate resources lest they get in a bind financially. Hopefully they move on from Winker and Tellez. No brainer to do so.
  3. Brown has been really good since May, which has been great to see. Hopefully he builds on it next year and rises through the system.
  4. Very good article, Tim. I think CC has been phenomenal and I’d hate to lose him. But you raise some good points and your precise examples and comparisons to Bochy are very apt.
  5. The Brewers making a deal with Baltimore would probably be the least surprising scenario. Baltimore has surplus young talent and can’t forge a pathway for them all. They have been under pressure to make a deal for veteran pitching for awhile. But it’s not a lock. First, we don’t know if they’d deal Burnsie with Woody hurt. Second, you’d like good young pitching talent coming back and the O’s are light there. The Brewers can drive a hard bargain considering they have no need to do the swap and Baltimore doesn’t have precisely what they want. All in all, I think Baltimore will be motivated to potentially overpay with what they do have. They’ve been under the microscope for not having already done it.
  6. I’m a huge Woody fan as we all are. I have all the empathy for him both with his career but also financially. But I can’t see giving him anything beyond prove it money in ‘25. Coming off a missed year and major surgery, he’s not looking at market value in ‘25. It’s sad to say but with age creeping up and a major injury he’s losing the biggest leverage he had to get a huge payday. I’d be generous but far under market price for a pitcher of his stature. I’d then want a third year option. We don’t know the back room conversations but I’d say there is almost no chance there wasn’t the topic of an extension broached along the way. Peralta and Ashby took it. Woody and Burnes didn’t. You can bet on yourself as a player but you’re taking a massive risk too by eschewing guaranteed money over the life of an extension. Very unfortunate but I would be harping on this big time in the future with other young players if I’m the Brewer FO. It burned Woody. I feel for him but he did it eyes wide open.
  7. @Smichaelis9these write ups are great as usual. The best part is the deep dive in explaining their data and adjustments they are making. I follow the stats all season but you charting out their trends, e.g, Brown getting above an OPS of .780 after a tough start, is very helpful.
  8. Rhys Hoskins is perfect for what the Brewers need. His results are highly predictable. He’s going to hit .240 and pop around 30 HR and 85-90 rbi. For a team whose big power guy hit only 24 HR with only 80 ribbies while sitting at a pathetic .217, they need a run producing bat at a corner infield spot.
  9. Megill is really coming on. That could be huge.
  10. With Chourio, Frelick and Mitchell ahead of him, I could see him dealt at some point.
  11. Wiemer has tremendous raw physical ability but his approach makes Carlos Gomez look disciplined. He seems to be a slow learner in that regard. He’s still as erratic as he was at the start of the year but it’s a worse situation because pitchers have a book on him and have figured out how to take advantage of how undisciplined he is. Defense is superb but Mitch would be an upgrade on the playoff roster.
  12. Let’s hope Freddy can keep rolling. We could use it.
  13. Canha has been huge, actually vital. I don’t know where our OF would be without him.
  14. Exactly. Player development. Winning while you’re still developing young talent.
  15. Stearns, Counsell and Tod Johnson have been tremendous for the Brewers, the best leadership we’ve ever had in terms of developing an organization for sustained success. You can nitpick a decision here and there but that’s beside the point. What they’ve done is set in motion organizational philosophies, structure and functionalities that have allowed the Brewers to succeed despite market size and keep it going. Unless you’re a Ryan Braun level guy, our young players come up and take their lumps. Burnes, Woody, Peralta et al. Now we are working in Turang, Frelick and Wiemer and are still in first place. Add Black, Chourio, Gasser, among others, next year. We have lost Stearns but we can maintain the organizational philosophies he’s put in place. Hopefully we can hang on to Johnson and Counsell. Murphy would slide into the Counsell role but he’s the best manager here of our lifetimes. He’s still young so hopefully they can work it out.
  16. I wouldn’t bring up Mis this year but would strongly consider Gasser. Mis needs to improve his command.
  17. I’d keep Payamps where he is until he proves otherwise. He wasn’t a good pickup, he was a great pickup. Very valuable pitcher. But I agree about Uribe moving ahead of Pegeuro in terms of leverage opportunities. Pegeuro looks shaky even when he’s getting out of situations. He’s faltering with his command. He is apt to pull a pitch way out of his intent. Uribe on the other hand has tremendous upside. I was watching the Chisox feed over the weekend and they were absolutely mesmerized by his stuff. We are talking about Jason Benetti and Steve Stone, not two scrubs. They were effusive in their praise of Uribe. It’s not a little secret among Brewer prospect nerds. His stuff demands attention.
  18. Agree, disagree, whatever, but I appreciate Clancy’s passion for the prospects and creating discussion.

  20. It’s way too early to make any pronouncements on Turang. He has always been challenged and adjusts level by level. That’s the stage we are seeing with him right now. We don’t know what it’s going to look like when it comes out of the oven yet. He’s scrawny so I’m not sure he’s going to ever deliver much pop but can he develop a hit tool with OBP, baserunning and defense? I see potential where others see negativity. TBD.
  21. The Brewers are in process of having a number of prospects graduate to the big league club, into next season, and they are doing a bang up job replenishing the system for the next wave.
  22. Can fill that Justin Jarvis spot.
  23. The biggest fish I hope we can keep in our front office is Tod Johnson. He's a bright, organized guy.
  24. I would delete this article. It’s embarrassing. It shouldn’t still be up.
