    Chourio has Acuna comps for a future. Risks? Toss all that out the window. Any extra years gained in team control is an absolute win for the franchise. Hell give him 12yrs 200Mil. Try to understand what 40/50 seasons are going to be like on lockdown.

    Get It Done! 10years. 150 sounds great to me. Pay that man up front these 1st 5 years to keep that backend modest. Never have his salary exceed 20M in a season.
  3. brewcrewdue80
    He accepts that deal the Brewers could still trade him for something as a salary dump. Can't get that comp pick without making the offer. It should be easier to eat now that Woodruff is out the picture on a same decision. It is in Adames' best interest to head in to FA after a solid season versus a 2nd consecutive poor showing as a batter.

    Lynn returning to play for St Louis where he'd seen success. Probably that kind of line of reasoning. His durability during that time and career. Something needs to be said about 180+IP locked down from your starter even if it's a #3-5.
  5. brewcrewdue80
    To me there's too much upside to trade him. You would need too much upside player value in return at a different position to make a trade worthwhile. Defense is special, I'd rate above Frelick for sure. Wiemer has the power potential for outside CF play, Frelick not so much. Mitchell is the combo between the two that I think fits CF defense the best....but coming off his injury will it remain. That's a dynamic that will need time figuring out. What's keeping Wiemer's style from not becoming the type of Joc Pederson with plus defense though? That's a 116OPS+ from RH side clamoring for 30HRs. It'd probably just be because the trio of Chourio-Mitchell-Frelick are better and there's no room to play him consistently.

    Less team control faster increases in salary. And his ceiling seems quite low vs the ceiling and control you would hope to find out of dealing the caliber Dodgers could get out of Burnes or Adames. Want nothing back in return like Lux who would reduce the ceiling value the Brewers should be seeking like in Sheehan.
  7. brewcrewdue80
    Adames has 1 yr left if he's not traded. SS goes to Turang. Black at 2b. Mayo 1/3b along with Wilken. It's fairly easy to sort this out. Definitely want some bat that can actually fit the 1b/3b profile that hasn't existed on the Brewers for some time now.
  8. brewcrewdue80
    Sheehan popped up out of nowhere on Dodgers prospect lists in 2 yrs. He would make logical sense in a headline of the deal. I don't know about both since both are active SP for the Dodgers. That removes 2 for 1 from their rotation. Miguel Vargas makes sense if you're thinking 1b with versatility and believe his minors stats will show up as he gains more experience in to his prime. Michael Bush fits the same mold. So two of the same. Rh vs LH. Vargas is younger with more ML exp. Bush already 26 takes him well past 30 with team control. Trade value Sheehan and Bush ahead. Pepiot and Vargas about same. Doesn't really require a 3rd player. Salary could increase or decrease the Brewers surplus values. There are oodles of throw ins that would sweeten it on Milw's side. Take johendry Vargas for example. 18yr rok class international signing SS. Lotto ticket. Two LH SP just below Vargas dodger rankings, Kopp and Bruns, fit in value added late in trade with upside.

    Having non tendered Woodruff and Tellez, I don't see the need to trade Yelich at this time. Solid year last season. Still wondering how he's not being pushed towards 1b. Make room for Chourio along with Mitchell, Frelick, and Wiemer OF. The FO has to be pursuing a trade of one of 3 not named Chourio keeping Yelich in the OF mix. The absolute need at 1b is real.
  10. brewcrewdue80
    Woodruff is a FA now. Under his circumstances, I'd think that is better for him moving forward. It's known he's going to miss most if not all of 2024. His only downside at this moment is the rehab and Dr's he could have working with him within the team he's signed to. But ah, yes he can still sign with a team to gain that of his choosing. He can also go the route on his own and as he prepares a return to throwing, have a showcase say in August and sign a deal then that could still portend 20+M come 2025 season, should he showcase well. The 2/12 or 2/14 that locks him from the 2025 earning potential. Waiting til July and August, will still be enviable to a team signing him having 2+months to negotiate a long end contract if he's throwing well in September. Keep looking at this from FO perspective, when you ought to look at it from Woodruffs perspective. His decision making. He's losing his age 31 season. 2yr deal makes it age 32 committed. He was on track for top 15 paid SP in baseball. Something that declines with age. Having age 32- for start to that deal vs age 33- is impactful. Until he shows he's no longer a SP caliber his value is much higher than being thought of here.

    2 lotto tickets for a super 2nd chance drawing. Terrible trade.
  12. brewcrewdue80
    That Baltimore deal feels steep on their end. Coby Mayo has a long future ahead of him and looks like an addition to the ML team during 2024. It'd be a dream to have his bat at corner infield. I don't think Baltimore is at that timeframe to make the m9ve for Burnes with their core and depth in the minors needing to be churned. Maybe next year after Mayo+rookies join, the idea of Peralta(if healthy& good still) being traded for makes sense. All these articles are click bait, throw mud at a wall to see if any of it sticks and guess on any of it comes true. Then gloat about that time 60days ago you suggested this trade. See I'm still relevant again. (Think I seen a jomboy post of one of their guys stating Dbacks-Rangers WS? Back in June when they had like best and 3rd best records in baseball. The ? Isn't a prediction imo, it's just that a ? that would they meet in WS. Yet Jomboy post was their boy knew back then.)
  13. brewcrewdue80
    Turang at rookie pay will compensate defense. Batting bottom 3rd in order works. Can't afford another weak batting season from Adames for his "pop" hooray we have another Jose Hernandez. Pay someone with better pop like 1b or 3b or even OF the money Adames commands. We giving him a QO next year? The Dodgers will.
  14. brewcrewdue80
    Extend him just to bat him 6th? That would be fine if the dollar amount matched that positioning. Paying him 8-10.5M a season. You know that isn't happening and thrusts him in to #3-4 when paid the amount he'll end up getting.
  15. brewcrewdue80
    Solid move imo. Still up in air where you play Black at the ML level. You have 4OFs and Chourio in short time. You have Quero with Contreras blocking him near end of 2024. You don't have Miley. Burnes? Woodruff? 2 or 11.5M can be used towards a FA addition your depth needs more. I feel one of Frelick, Wiemer, and Mitchell are in line to be moved due to Chourio and Yelich. Fill up Canha's spot in one of those moves.
  16. brewcrewdue80
    Get the vibe of a Travis Shaw potential addition in batting without the 3b defense. Who's playing 1st? Black? Yelich? Dunn in the future? Any relation to Adam Dunn? Just a churning of the bottom 5 in a 40man who may turn out productive.
  17. brewcrewdue80
    So Chourio up to at least 0-18 streak at the moment. The promoted Black who actually had a down July vs the months prior. Chourio has a player of the month and is kept down. Wrong of them to hold him down. Now you see the end result. So what does Chourio have to do for a promotion? His mind is wondering. Guess having a poor month will equal promotion. It certainly wasn't the POTM production. Big mistake imo, I mean he'll overcome it and still be great, just what a poor move when he Aced an exam and you kept him back in the same grade.
  18. brewcrewdue80
    What has been Quero's injury?
  19. brewcrewdue80
    No trades this offseason aside from Adames it's easy to think by this time next season you have a lineup of Frelick, Yelich, Chourio, Contreras, Wiemer; Mitchell, Quero/Black, 3b, and Turang. Burnes, Woodruff, Ashby/Peralta/Miserioski. Uribe/Williams with Payamps closing out games. I'm just curious who the send to 1b. Who plays 3b(Monesterio?)
  20. brewcrewdue80
    Tbh, the returns for trades have declined quite a bit. It's probably just better to hold on to him and use the draft pick return on a QO better nowadays. Besides the team is close with the addition of young bats next season on top of improved hitting from the 4 rookies this year to return Burnes for 1 last WS push before the departure on pitching impacts them the following seasons.
  21. brewcrewdue80
    There's got to be a future game here when Woodruff returns that Houser closes out a start returning to bullpen and gives the rest of bullpen a day off. Also see Eric Lauer has returned to pitching 2 games thus far. Gotta assume he'd pitch a long man inning eating game.
  22. brewcrewdue80
    He chose the young SP as a future run preventer over Urias' sub-par defense&offense lately.
  23. brewcrewdue80
    Brewers must have about 10 flyouts of over 360ft this series. Tough stadium to hit HRs.
  24. brewcrewdue80
    That was previous AB of foul swings and missing the 3rd all in the zone. If he can't hit them in looks like recently he's tried to hit them outside. He'll have no walks!
  25. brewcrewdue80
    That's pretty harsh after the month of July he just had to keep him in AA the remainder of the season and suggest assessing whether to promote to AAA next season or start him at AA again. How's that work for all the other Brewer prospects who fight to reach a 750 OPS seeing somebody rip off a 1.165 OPS for a month and be kept down for the remainder of the season while being the #1 prospect for the team? With Urias trade Black is definitely getting promoted to AAA the next chance they get. He had over a 1.0 OPS in June and 941 OPS in July. 2 months in a row batting better at AA than what he did previously in his career.
