    1-2 year deal for an innings eater with some upside. At age 34, who knows what Stroman had left. I don’t love his public comments about being a starter or nothing. The Brewers don’t seem to mind spending money on 1-2 year commitments, like Hoskins.
  2. Frisbee Slider
    Would we want to buy low on Marcus Stroman and his $18 million contract for this year? Only problem, if he pitches 140 innings or more this year then he gets a player option for $18 million for 2026. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/43843555/marcus-stroman-rejoins-yankees-camp-eyes-starter-role

    With the start of Spring Training, let’s agree to be excited for the offseason to essentially be over? 🙂
  4. Frisbee Slider
    Fair. At the same time, is it possible Kim prefers spending more time In Florida than Wisconsin? I love Milwaukee but can understand if some elite athletes do not.
  5. Frisbee Slider
    LOL Quarter billion 🙂 Quarter million seemed like a lot when I typed it.
  6. Frisbee Slider
    Would an A grade require signing a free agent to a quarter billion dollar contract or trading all of our prospects to ‘go for it’ ? Are we grading excitement, shrewdness or something else for offseason success?
  7. Frisbee Slider
    Maybe it’s better to acquire talent mid season when teams get ready to sell? There aren’t many free agent deals where I wish Milwaukee signed them instead. The offseason should be judged based on the regular season results. The Brewers should have a nice regular season and our offseasons rarely are splashy.

    Bregman had .755 OPS during road games last year. The short porch at Daikin Park (?) really aids Bregman.

    Doesn’t it seem that Yelich is either injured or practically playing every single day? There doesn’t seem to be much of a middle ground.

    The optimist in me reads the quote as he may be ready for opening day. I appreciate the sentence reads the same as the thread title. Seems like under promising by Arnold. In any case, we have the outfielders to be competitive without Yelich. We certainly what Christian to be healthy in October.

    I remember being devastated when Gallardo injured his knee in 2008.

    Saw MLB.com continued its annual tradition of hoping for a breakout season from Jordan Walker. Am I missing something other than a high slugging percentage in the Texas League at a very HR friendly park in 2022? Age 20, sure. Walker had .750 OPS in AAA in 2023 and 2024. Granted, he is still younger but it doesn’t seem like he warrants national media coverage for possible breakout season. Age 23, this year. article

    I’m genuinely surprised Pittsburgh is ahead of Cincinnati. Doesn’t FanGraphs see how electric EDLC is?
  14. Frisbee Slider
    I assume Milwaukee wants lower expectations of Woodruff so there is less pressure or disappointment if his performance takes time to ramp up. There is no reason for the Brewers to say they are expecting 150+ IP and sub-three ERA.
  15. Frisbee Slider
    Probably Braden Looper, too.
  16. Frisbee Slider
    The first two years of Kyle Lohse were fine. The final year was not.

    If the Pirates included airfare and hotel accommodations for a few games per year, then it might be a little more interesting. I suppose it was a well thought out publicity stunt from the beginning,
  18. Frisbee Slider
    The probability that the person who acquired this card lives near Pittsburgh, or cares about the Pirates was always pretty low. If this card actually is worth $1 million to someone, that is incredible. And makes it seem very unlikely anyone would turn down the opportunity to receive that kind of money.
  19. Frisbee Slider
    You were right. The Pirates were going to display the card at PNC Park. That seems like a lot for the Pirates to give up for a trading card. I guess it is a neat card but not sure fans would spend more money with the Pirates to see the card.
  20. Frisbee Slider
    I assume it was a good faith effort to help Paul Skenes and Skenes would keep it. Otherwise, why would Livvy Dunne care about helping the Pittsburgh Pirates?
  21. Frisbee Slider
    The retail value of tickets behind home plate at PNC Park is $100 to $200 each. Lets assume $100 per ticket x two tickets x 81 home games x 30 years = $486,000, not adjusted for inflation or playoff games. At a certain point, you can sell your home plate tickets and still receive a generous payout.
  22. Frisbee Slider
    Just read that an 11 year old from the Los Angeles area found the rarest Paul Skenes baseball card, one of one. Pirates offered anyone who finds the card: - Two season tickets behind home plate for 30 years at PNC Park - Personal softball game at PNC Park with Pirates alumni and 30 of your friends/family - Batting practice at PNC Park - Two Skenes autographed jerseys - ‘One of a kind’ spring training experience - Meet and greet with Paul Skenes - more Understandably, the 11 year old from Los Angeles declined the offer. The card is doubtless worth $100,000. I read maybe even $1,000,000. If the Brewers made a similar offer for a baseball card for a generational talent, how much cash would you need to receive from selling the card in order to reject a similar offer? Or, would you simply accept the offer to help the Pirates?
  23. Frisbee Slider
    It’s difficult to trust former Cardinal pitchers.
  24. Frisbee Slider
    That said, why not go out and sign Jack Flaherty 🙂
  25. Frisbee Slider
    Is Jack Flaherty a good pitcher sometimes confused for a great pitcher? mlb.com had a good write up on why Flaherty might not be signed yet. Flaherty’s FIP with Dodgers in 2024 was 4.16, same as Freddy Peralta. Flaherty hadn’t otherwise had a full season FIP below 4 since 2019.
