    Aguilar is cheap for a long time though which makes it tougher as compared to Thames or Schoop or even Shaw if they want Thames/Aguilar 1st & Moose 3rd.

    Soooo you are Stearns, are you picking up Moose’s option? Does Moose agree? I’m really liking Moose on this team. Bat has been good, D has been mostly really good.

    I greatly enjoy driving up from Fondy to take my daughter to title town district during the winter. There really is no stores. It’s an activity park. Her & her friends sled, ice skate, play on playground, and etc. It’s part of giving people more to do around the stadium, making it even more family oriented, and drawing more people. I’m not concerned with tickets & think Packers are fine. A waitlist over 80k people so if someone doesn’t find worth in them, plenty people will jump on wagon. Team good or bad, fans show up. Our tickets usually sell for 100 or more per ticket above face value. Even pre season tickets get taken very quick. People just love the experience. Win, lose, you tailgate, drink, have great time, things to do after game. It’s just fun to be up there on game day. Winning always makes it better but myself and most people I know would pay the prices just goes it’s Lambeau, we love the Packers, & it’s a blast. In my eyes, Packers have had good business model and enhanced fan experience greatly over the years. Going to need into the Browns for decade or two with no more upgrades to fan experience to put them into any danger

    Love Feliciano pick. Great test for him. Injuries pretty lost him the season. Was never able to get going really

    Mario has been banged up all season & hitting in a league where the vast majority of hitters struggle. Not to mention he was only 19 there all season. Brewers are not going to give up a 19 year old, who battled injuries all year, in a pitchers league, and has a promising bat. To call him a blackhole is laughable. He was one of the few bats in Wisconsin (at 18) who was fairly consistent and showed a lot of promise. Fry was a 23 year old in offense driven league. I’ll take his results with grain of salt. Harrison looked amazing in Helena & was pretty useless most of the season in Wisconsin. Henry hit a major wall in first full season in July but think he is a promising prospect. 1. Nottingham 2. Feliciano/Henry 3. McDowell 4. The rest would be my rankings. Super Mario & Henry are neck & neck to me. Have a feeling Ashby will be moved fast. Pretty electric kid. Helena kids produced way than I thought they would. Guys like Ward, Coco, Castillo, Abreu, Turang and such all make Wisconsin intriguing. My Guess is there will be plenty of growing pains but like Lutz, you hope they grow all season. Even the pitchers like Lazar & Bullock. Many pitchers struggle in Helena before pitching great after. Look at Brown & Ashby to start.

    Yeah good deal for both. No room for Pipkins & Morrison didn’t fit new D well. Not sure if people thought Lenzi would land us an elite guy or what but we got a solid guy to fill a need. Stiffs who suck don’t make 109 tackles in 15 games. Not a splashy guy or impact guy but against run he will fill gaps & be around the ball. Can’t complain about that. Hopefully Burks is good sooner than later since he has brings more to table as an elite athlete. Was doing well prior to injuries

    Two main issue based around the major concern.... contract 1) You need to sign and trade for Mack. If you trade for him, you are giving up great assets. You want him for a longer than just one year & prefer not to have him just walk after a season. Raiders trading him won’t end his holdout, he wants a contract & wont play until he gets one 2) Packers hands are tied until Rodgers deal is done. You have no clue how much money you have to work with until the biggest contract in football is complete

    Just read a new article today, they have video of girls leaving & walking fine down the stairs. One girl casually talking with him at door before leaving. He received a text 45 minutes after they left asking about if he finds her vap, let her know with a kiss & heart emoji. The two stories from both sides are so polar opposite. They moved to dismiss charges today & if they truly have all that evidence.... seems like a decent chance to get thrown out. But again, long investigation & brought charges so has to be something there. A lot doesn’t add up
  9. Jenkins5
    Tail of articles.... be very interesting to see how it plays out. The girls article was rough to read and tough to magine that he’d ever play football again & not go to jail. One from lawyers, makes you think it was the complete opposite and with plenty of video evidence. I coach with a former Badger starting receiver & he has met Cephus couple of times and echos what you often hear about him. Outstanding kid, bright future, elite student off field.....not a kid you’d expected to do something as bad as being charged. If he did, shame on him & he threw away a lot. Same coached talked about how you are cautioned to be smart & do best to avoid those situations. Girls throw themselves at you. False rap claims & or abuse claims have long been an issue in sports. As a college kid....Again I wasn’t there and have only read the articles. No clue truth & hopefully truth comes out. You hope a kid with as much promise on & off the field wouldn’t rap two girls who are basically passed out & not functioning. We shall see

    Exact reason why Baylor receivers dominate in college & most outside Gordon completely bust in NFL. Coleman being given away for nothing was a perfect example of that. WRs in certain systems learn nearly nothing about being a real WR. Coleman was said to be lost & struggled to adopt to the NFL style of play. There are too many examples in NFL of guys like Kumerow rising up to write him off.
  11. Jenkins5
    Rodgers, coaches, defensive players rave about him. He gets reps in camp everyday vs ones & does same. Most importantly, we have Adams & Cobb.... after that Allison & three rookies. Really how far away from #3 is he? To me, he is ahead of all 3 rookies & on Allison’s tail.
  12. Jenkins5
    Jake Kumerow has some pretty awesome bloodlines 1. Dad Eric was 16th overall pick by the Dolphins as a linebacker 2. Mom is the sister of former 1st round pick John Bosa (Joey & Nicks dad) making him 1st cousins with them 3. Great Grandpa was a notorious Chicago mob boss, Tony Accardo or “Big Tuna” & “Joe Batters” Just thought I’d share since soon I think he will move ahead of Allison as #3 receiver. Kid makes plays!

    I still see a lot of Trae Turner in him. Trae Turner coming out of high school was same size with ton of speed & not much power.... Turner was also far less heralded then. Turner is far from a power bat still but filled out body more & sits in the 10-15 range. Shows signs of being able to hit for average & walk with effective ability to steal bases. One thing people may be overlooking is he could be reverting back to a more level swing that made him such a high level prospect. It was said this season he changed and added more loft to add power & hit tool dropped because of it. I haven’t seen him play yet & am a scout but I do wonder if that is playing a role at all. I’m not concerned at all either way about a skinny 18 year old who hasn’t flashed power. Give him time with pro trainers to build strength & fill out frame. If we get a version of Trae Turner who I’m a fan of, I’d be very happy. I don’t need 20 hrs out of him. 10-15 with some double gap power... mixed with good average & obp... I’m happy

    Good move with Carmona gone & give them two good prospects there with Turang & Coco. I really like Jesse Williams so far & Howell is intriguing down on Arizona. He wasn’t Lutz or Tyrone Taylor Arizona dominant but this helps put him in play for Wisconsin next year. We really could use those 4 to step up at SS to strength our depth in system there with Dubon. Aviles tends to have stretches that really impress before he drops back off
  15. Jenkins5
    Reilly, this may the most interesting top 25 you have had to breakdown...as I thought on early returns, the system is in flux & this list is tough! Ton of young potential but not sure what they really are yet.
  16. Jenkins5
    1. SP C. Burnes 2. 2B K. Hiura 3. OF C. Ray 4. OF T. Lutz 5. 3B L. Erceg 6. SP Z. Brown 7. SS M. Dubon 8. SS B. Turang 9. C J. Nottingham 10. SP. M. Diplan 11. 1B J. Gatewood 12. OF T. Stokes 13. SP Trey Supek 14. C Payton Henry 15. OF Joe Gray Jr. 16. SP Adrian Houser 17. OF Trent Grisham 18. SP Aaron Ashby 19. C Mario Feliciano 20. 1B Chad McClanahan 21. OF Carlos Rodriquez 22. SP. Cody Ponce 23. OF Micah Bello 24. OF D. Orimoloye 25. RP Q. Torres-Costas Wow that was pretty tough to do once you get past the first 5 or 8. I see these list being all over the place. Also some pitchers need to step up now at lower levels to create the next wave.
  17. Jenkins5
    Interesting move. Carmona stings a little but there are others like Coco that I have grown to like more. Lot of power potential & was doing well at 18 in Helena though. Nice lottery ticket for O’s. Ortiz I’m not heartbroken about. He will probably battle nagging injuries while career that will never allow him to reach potential. We have great options every night. If injury happens, we are pretty covered. We are deep. That’s important down the road. I’m really interested how it all plays out for us. I’ll judge trade later with no knee jerks

    Didn't realize that Corey Ray was finally beasting! K's could come down but I'll take a 30/30 season (40/40 upside?) If Ray gets the bump to AAA, CS could really help him get to that rare Greg Vaughn level 30/30 season this year!(30/40 most likely) Phillips & Lopez really just kind of got buried here. Phillips wasn’t going to force Yelich, Cain, Braun out of way. Still behind Santana, Thames, and probably even with Broxton. Ray & Stokes are rising. More I think about it & sit on it.... the more I like the deal. I am a Moose fan as the Royals have been my 2nd favorite team since the Greinke trade & Yost coming. Interesting read on Moose here. His bat will play much better in Milwaukee than it did in KC. He’s a very park dependent. Lefty power flyball pull hitters have made a great living at Miller Park. Moose should thrive at home. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/mike-moustakas-is-the-former-royal-you-want/
  19. Jenkins5
    You’d have to think so. I feel after the deadline there will be an August shake up with some players moving up. His bat is just electric. He has made strides with contact this year & hopefully he continues to make adjustments. MLB players can still be very productive with a 26-27% K mark, def when BB rate is kept over 10%. He just needs to continue to make strides with contact. I’m fine with him being a Mike Cameron .240-.250 hitter as long as he keeps walking at a 10% or higher clip & is electric on the bases & with pounding out XBHs. He has that Rickie Weeks explosive bat... just have to pray it isn’t as hot or cold as Weeks. One month .400 hitter & best player on field to next month .150 looks lost & wondering how he is MLB player. Weeks was drastically streaky (like Broxton as well) Ray has to be more consistent than them.

    Offense has been a on again off again problem all season. We all wanted a bat at 2B & I say Shaw’s bat is huge improvement there. Same time we keep a big power bat at 3B. Moose doesnt walk much but he also doesn’t K too much. I think DS & CC both know enough about baseball to trust their decision to make this trade based on Shaw needing to play 2B. They started in May having him take ground ball over there & think they have prepared for this option a bit. I’m interested to see how it plays out. I like it for fact we need offense in the middle of infield. Defensively we will see. With Arcia up, Shaw at 2B is only real weak spot.... before Arcia came up.... 2B & SS were wide open for opposing teams to attack up middle... Jury out but as of know I support & like the trade. DS hasn’t steered me wrong yet
  21. Jenkins5
    At least that offsets the 3ks a little. Kid just needs to make contact and let bat play. Ks need to reduce
  22. Jenkins5
    I say based on ceiling & who is ahead of them... Erceg is most likely. With Hiura you have an elite hit tool. With Ray, you have an elite explosive athlete (but hit tool is still question) and Erceg’s only elite tool is his arm with solid offensive tools but has similar problem as Gamel with rushing footwork causing many errors. Erceg will need to start to add versatility... hard to be a one position only hitter on the Brewers (unless you have Hiura’s hit tool) He has got work at SS in past in Arizona & is good enough athlete to maybe play 2nd (waste of arm) or maybe RF with Shaw ahead of him & if Hiura was traded.... To me, I’d love to see what Ray & Hiura could be and there are rolls for them more available to get a chance.
  23. Jenkins5
    Ray being Ray... starting game 3-3 with a 2B
  24. Jenkins5
    Lutz? The 19 year old in A ball that has been improving each month & has been on a year? Kid will be a centerpiece by time he hits AA. Not tossing him in for Gray
  25. Jenkins5
    Wily Peralta & Orlando Arcia are on a very short list of signed & developed talents to be considered high prospects & reach the big. You hope with the continued push in the international market that we will see a lot more guys shot up the ranks
