It's time to let Pena play 2B for the Shuckers.

Not happening but it should. 😁 Turang 2B Chourio LF Vaughn 1B Contreras DH Bauers RF Sanchez C Mitchell CF Pratt SS Ortiz 3B

The closer we get to the deadline the more I think the Brewers should back off to second tier players and cross their fingers on a six man rotation staying healthy. A healthy Harrison could be your trade deadline addition....... Not Mason Miller...... Adrian Morejon- Ashby seems trashed. Too many innings and high leverage situations. Would slot in late innings with Uribe and Megill. Giving Up: Braelyn Payne Not Tarik Skubal....... Dustin May- Pitching for a contract and big game stuff. Would the Cardinals trade him in the division? Giving Up: Bishop Leston and Dylan O'Rae Rotation Miz, Henderson, May, Gasser, Drohan, Harrison

Vaughn offers consistent right handed power in an offense lacking power. He should be playing everyday. Lara RF Chourio LF Turang 2B Contreras C Mitchell CF Vaughn 1B/DH Yelich DH/ Bauers /1B Pratt/Ortiz SS Ortiz/ Hamilton 3B/SS

I think Hardin and Leston are a ways away and won't impact the 2026 or 2027 season.

It seems like every team is going to demand a controllable young pitcher for a rotation upgrade. Who are our best? Who wouldn't you trade? 1.) Miz (not getting traded, #1) 2.) Drohan (not getting traded, #2) 3.) Ashby (not getting traded, huge value) 4.) Harrison (not getting traded, #3) 5.) Patrick (not getting traded, incredibly valuable. If the Brewers pick up a pen piece is he a rotation option?) 6.) Henderson (most finished pitcher but tradeable for a top of the rotation pitcher) 7.) Sproat (best pure stuff but tradeable. future reliever?) 8.) Gasser (if he gets you a front line starter so be it) 8.) Crow (injuries are a concern, tradeable) 10.) Gordon (must be a reason we acquired him? still very tradeable) 11.) Rodriguez (throw in on a trade. he is still really young.)

1. Tarik Skubal 2. Sonny Gray 3. Jose Soriano

The Tigers will be asking for a haul. If Pena isn't included would the following get it done? Made, Fischer, Pratt, Lara and Drohan are off limits - Gasser or Sproat - Hardin - Adams or Bitonti - Williams - Payne or Adamczewski I dislike the cost but Skubal, Miz, Harrison and Drohan would be incredibly tough in the playoffs.

Hopefully Henderson, Drohan and Sproat can go six...... 😳 1st Time Through Henderson Drohan Gasser Patrick/Sproat (Sproat to AAA for a RO who will go when McCullers is activated from the DL) Miz 2nd Time Through Harrison (Recent call up to AAA) Henderson Drohan Gasser Patrick/McCullers 3rd Time Through Miz Harrison Henderson Drohan Gasser

The Brewers don't need another left handed relief pitcher. Maybe Jose Soriano for Jefferson Quero, Jett Williams and Carlos Rodriguez (who has zero trade value).

Casey Mize, Jose Soriano and Kyle Bradish are worth a look with cheap contracts and arbitration years ahead. Possible Trade- Jett Williams, Tyson Hardin and Brock Wilken Reid Detmers, Robbie Ray and Kevin Gausman would cost more money but would cost less prospect capital in return. Possible Trade- Coleman Crow and Josh Adamczewski Michael Wacha would cost less in prospects but his future years are a gamble. Possible Trade- Braelon Payne and JD Thompson 1. Casey Mize- 2.70 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and $6.15 million and free agent in 2027 2. Jose Soriano- 3.49 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and $2.9 million and arbitration eligible 3. Kyle Bradish- 3.61 ERA, 1.35 WHIP- $3.55 and arbitration eligible for 2027 4. Reid Detmers- 4.39 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 2.7 million and free agent in 2027. 5. Michael Wacha- 3.77 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and $18 million in 2027 6. Robbie Ray- 3.38 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and $25 million free agent 7. Kevin Gausman- 4.33 WRA, 1.35 WHIP and $22 million free agent in 2027

Jo Adell and Reid Detmers for Sal Frelick, Jett Williams, one of of: Shane Drohan, Robert Gasser, and Brandon Sproat and one of Coleman Crow, Easton McGee, Bishop Letson and Craig Yoho. Rotation: 1.)

I know we have a ways to go this spring but the Sounds potentially have a ton of talent. There are more players than open positions. Zamora, Leonard, McGee and Rodriguez could all be traded with Wichrowski, Hunt, Kuehner, Manfredi, Fitzpatrick, Fisher, Made, Leston and Hardin waiting for their 2026 AAA opportunity.
