    Nice move from a billionaire. I do not expect Wisconsin sports teams will follow suit.
  2. Frisbee Slider
    Better than being closed off on trading Hoskins? 🤷‍♂️
  3. Frisbee Slider
    Quickly put together, I think Milwaukee will have more HR in 2025: Brewers had 177 HR in 2024. I don’t expect many HR from Frelick but some of our bench bats will be in double digit HR totals.

    Would someone claim him off waivers? I assume so? Interesting way to free up money. Maybe poor form and Hoskins will almost certainly improve during a contract year.
  6. Frisbee Slider
    Maybe Caleb Durbin is the next Belliard? I liked Belliard.

    Loved Callix Crabbe! Unrelated note: I have a Brewers logo home plate signed by Prince Fielder, Dennis Sarfate. Manny Parra, Tony Gwynn Jr and John Vandenberg (accidentally). Good memories of the 2003 Beloit Snappers.

    Dustin Pedroia was 5’7 Luisangel Acuña is 5’8 Short is the new market inefficiency 🤷‍♂️
  9. Frisbee Slider
    We didn’t love Burnes trade until it ended up being good or fine.
  10. Frisbee Slider
    Altuve has 229 career HR. .451 SLG last year for Durbin isn’t nothing.
  11. Frisbee Slider
    Durbin had much higher SLG and ISO at upper levels of minor leagues compared to Frelick. That must account for at least something?

    I don’t envy teams signing aging stars to expensive contracts. The Angels committed $911 million dollars to Pujols, Trout and Rendon and will have nothing to show for it. I appreciate Milwaukee would almost never be a destination for these players but it should be noted that we probably don’t want many of these aging stars on our roster, anyway. The 2023 World Series winning Texas Rangers roster is not appreciably better than ours.
  13. Frisbee Slider
    Isn’t it within an owner’s rights to overpay a player, though?
  14. Frisbee Slider
    Eventually, the super teams will have hundreds of millions of dollars committed to players past their prime. I have to believe there’s a tipping point in a few years.
  15. Frisbee Slider
    But we shouldn’t want Adames on our roster for the next seven years, money aside. I expect Adames will have a nice 2025 before regressing to the point where the annual salary begins to hurt the Giants. The Brewers should not want that.
  16. Frisbee Slider
    Adames is not Giannis. In 2025, in terms of defense, Adames would be the third best option to play SS behind Turang and Ortiz. Not every free agent should be resigned by Milwaukee. I am happy the Giants believe Adames is worth $180 million. Truthfully, Adames probably is not worth that money. Especially after a few years.
  17. Frisbee Slider
    Aaron Jones? Aaron Rodgers, in part because of his excessive salary.
  18. Frisbee Slider
    The point I’m making is we should not take Adames signing with the Giants to be a data point for grievances against how MLB is structured.
  19. Frisbee Slider
    The Brewers kept Ryan Braun his whole career. It was generally worth it until, like all players, they regress as they age. Adames plainly would not be a valuable enough Brewer over the next seven seasons to warrant $180 million. Turang and Ortiz may both have more WAR than Adames in 2025.
  20. Frisbee Slider
    All teams in other sports can expect to lose beloved players due to salary cap. In baseball, players leave because another team chooses to pay for someone’s performance to (often) regress in their 30’s. Hader did not perform like a star last year. He will likely improve in 2025 but you never know. I wish Burnes well but he has had 903 high intensity innings under his belt. His health is not guaranteed. Prince Fielder put up almost zero WAR for Texas over three years. I am excited for Adames and don’t mind most of how MLB is structured.
  21. Frisbee Slider
    The Brewers are not victims for choosing to not spend $180 million on Adames. Or being unable to spend that money on a SS that will already be 30 years old next season. We should not want to sign this star to that contract.
  22. Frisbee Slider
    The Brewers will be better than San Francisco next year.
  23. Frisbee Slider
    Can you make this point more poetically?
  24. Frisbee Slider
    Soccer fans don’t seem to get fed up with specific clubs being able to afford mega contracts and others can’t. If they are, it is not affecting revenue.
  25. Frisbee Slider
    Spending hundreds of millions of dollars on Verlander, Scherzer, Rendon, Giancarlo Stanton or Bogarts (2024) is not often a good use of money. Nor is it wise to pay 37 year old Jacob DeGrom for 20 innings per year.
