    Let’s do our best to not derail this thread. 🙂

    He was good in 2022, could bounce back.

    Wagner’s stuff was more electric? More K/9

    Not enough of a multi year deal.
  6. Frisbee Slider
    Aren’t we obligated to bat Adames 3 or 4? Or, was that just a Counsell thing? 🙂

    The NFL does not want needless disparities between good players and bad players. All players should have an equal chance at entering HOF.

    Just a gut feeling? I don’t think the Brewers got worse in the off-season and the Cubs definitely did not get better. We barely had Woodruff last year. And we did not have Santana or Canha until the deadline.
  10. Frisbee Slider
    I think that is a credible thought. Brewers would love to beat the Cubs in 2024. Even without a grudge, I think there is merit to keeping Burnes in his final season.

    I am ignorant of advanced football metrics. Could these 49er/Ravens metrics be inflated if the rest of the league is historically mediocre? I struggle to associate the Brock Purdy-led Niners with historically great teams, even compared with previous Niner teams.

    The point is, if baseball owners are doing well, there is minimal incentive to make radical changes.

    All sports franchises seem to be greatly appreciating in value. Baseball, even more than football. To that end, I am skeptical anything will or should be done by owners to adjust ‘revenue disparity.’ Millions of Ohtani fans do not care about luxury tax thresholds.

    I agree the NFL is more popular than MLB. Popular products are not necessarily excellent products, though. Are there any great teams in the NFL in 2023? Would you rather own an investment that increased 7-fold (MLB) or 5-fold (NFL)? Football games on Sunday afternoons when many people are off work lend themselves better to live television than baseball games at lunch time on Wednesday. My point was that MLB owners and probably players are plenty happy with their economic positions. There isn’t a lot of incentive for owners or players to make radical changes.

    At the risk of asking, did you review yesterday’s thread on this topic where we had an existential crisis on whether or not we should only sign superstar free agents, moving forward?

    ‘They may have finished 10 games behind Milwaukee, but they’ve done more than enough to help close that gap.’ Close the gap, sure. However, the Reds did not improve their roster by 5+ wins and the Brewers did not get five games worse. Milwaukee lost Woodruff but he only pitched 67 innings. Canha had 178 AB. We can add another Canha at the deadline this year, too. I bet we resign Santana. EDLC had .628 OPS after the all star break. He could even start the year in Triple-A. I think Milwaukee’s young talent improves by equal or greater measure than Cincinnati.

    Are there great teams in the NFL in 2023?
  19. Frisbee Slider
    Attanasio group paid $223 million in 2005 for the Brewers. Estimated value is now $1.6 billion. A 7x return. About double the return of the stock market over same time span. By contrast, the Packers were valued at $849 million in 2005. Now valued at $4.25 billion. I appreciate the Packers don’t have a conventional owner. However, Packers franchise value went up 5x, since 2005 (less than Milwaukee). I loved (to hate) the 90’s NFL super teams of Dallas and San Francisco. Today’s NFL product, while popular, seems far less entertaining, to me.

    Thoughts on the Padres giving Machado, Bogarts and Tatis Jr nearly $1 billion?
  21. Frisbee Slider
    Anthony Rendon looked alright on paper in 2019. He will make $38.5 million this year and be league average. Manny Machado will out produce Monasterio in 2024. That doesn’t mean we should want to pay him $31 million until 2033.
  22. Frisbee Slider
    The worst thing about signing big name players in free agency is you are paying the player for who they used to be and not the value they will likely produce after age 30. That said, I expect Bryan Hudson will be at pleasant surprise this season.
  23. Frisbee Slider
    Is MLB in the business of fairness or maximizing revenue and franchise value? If the latter, they are doing fine.
  24. Frisbee Slider
    Yes Yes Yes I much prefer MLB to any other league, even as a Brewers fan. Ultimately, until revenue disparity impacts overall league revenue, I don’t expect much will change.

    It’s not a ‘needle mover’ 🙂
