  1. Although I trust our GM sees something of value in acquiring Claudio, I don’t see how any Ranger fan can dislike this trade. The Rangers are in rebuilding mode and acquiring a high draft pick in the same range that your org drafted Joey Gallo type talents for a replaceable bullpen arm is an absolute no brainer. My point more surrounded idea Claudio was likely mis-used by the Rangers. If used properly, value is higher, and return in rebuild style trade is greater. If I am Ranger fan, I wonder why the bullpen savvy Brewers are acquiring my guy with so many other seemingly feasible options available.
  2. This is a good move. Rangers are making mistakes left and right and this is one more.
  3. They're getting Diaz at his absolute peak value, something he's probably not going to replicate again and now are stuck with Cano through his age 41 season. This is hardly a win for the Mets. A player doesn’t have to have their peak season to be a difference maker. Diaz figures to be very good to elite through his controllable years. And many teams would love to be stuck with a hitter like Cano. You are off base here unless you can provide some more detail to why you think this.
  4. The more talented players are going to the Mets and they can easily afford the money. This goes bad for them only if one of the prospects explodes which is unlikely. Great move by NY. Seattle revamps their 3 year plan every 12 months it seems.
  5. No you don’t tell them to stop. You shoot when you are open. It’s kinda the whole theory behind this top ranked offense.
  6. I would think this is fairly common in other organizations, particularly in AAA where the difference in pay between that and the next level is enormous (min ~$500K vs. $80K if they have ML experience, maybe less if they don't). Guys who feel like they should get a chance are going to be pissed, especially this late in the year. That being said, we've seen this movie before in the Brewers system particularly since Stearns took over. Not just these guys this year, but given Wren's departure you think that he had to be unhappy and perhaps that came to a head. And then you go back to Cravy, Scahill, the non-callup of Jungmann, and I think one other guy had an issue last year. I have absolutely ZERO proof of this, but there's a fair amount of smoke to suggest that communicating where players stand and what they need to do to get an opportunity is not the strength of the Brewers right now. It's not like the Brewers have a tough staff to crack - they've used 26 pitchers this season, and used 29 last season. Sssssttttrrreeeeeettccccccchhhhhhh
  7. Good move. We are more talented today than when I went to sleep.
  8. Overmatched or unlucky? Aaron Familia is hitting under .200 but is sporting an OBP 200 points higher than his AVG...for now.
  9. If anyone could use a hit, it’s you, man. Lol
  10. Now back-to-back .700+ OPS months for young Tristen Lutz.
  11. He hit .261 in Brevard County in 2014. I would qualify that as OK. Other than that, his minor league numbers before last year were pretty nondescript. Obviously the talent was always there, though. I really liked Harrison and was sad to see him go. But that's not the point. Harrison isn't a Brewer anymore. Joe Gray is. And Joe Gray, at least to me, is a uber-athletic quick-twitch player with the same kind of traits that got me excited about Harrison. Those are also the types that other teams salivate over in potential deals down the road. You got the batting average right but nothing else. Monte has never played for Brevard Co. He played in the Arizona League in 2014. Had a .400+ OBP and 30+ steals. He was excellent. Then he was good again the next year in Helena before getting injured upon promotion. What are you looking at?
  12. Go back and check the tape. Monte was pretty damn good in rookie ball before scuffling for a bit with injuries and contact issues in full season.
  13. The Brewers really need two Full DSL and two AZL teams at this point. Or two AZL and two A Ball teams. Depth is an asset but the pool of reps available is finite unless you add more teams.
  14. Corey Ray needs to be traded to an org with a fan base able to appreciate his game. This is AJ Hawk all over again and it will annoy me.
  15. Agreed Segovia’s power has ticked up. Stock is up.
  16. SAME!
  17. Pretty sure he made his first professional error tonight. I’ll chalk it up to an off night so far.
  18. As we wait for the top of the hour....knowing what we know today....you taking Keston Hiura or Jo Adell in a 2017 redraft? Keston Jo
  19. Am I the only one that doesn't find Tim Dillard that funny? I don't dislike the guy at all, seems like a fun guy to be around and good for the clubhouse. But his media and social media stuff is just lost on me I guess. Just about everything I’ve seen has been very enjoyable
  20. Love it
  21. I think he is great
  22. Benching our best hitter is probably not the way to heal an ailing offense. Plenty of time until 1st pitch. These things tend to work themselves out without any kind of transaction.
  23. Best post I have seen on these pages
  24. I have not commented on this move yet either but I will just say this post is the most coherent and elegant train of thought presented thus far. Well said. +1
