Club wins Burnes' arbitration case (source)
82brewcrew82 replied to Brewermania101's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
And you can continue to believe that what Corbin had to say is the only perspective on the situation. Every arbitration hearing is pretty brutal and that isn't a secret. Yet very few air their dirty laundry to the media like he did. The reality is that you have no idea whether the Brewers acted with "bad behavior" or not relative to any other arbitration hearing. A few malcontent players made some vague comments yet the majority of the players that have been rostered in recent years make no such comments. Believe what you like but there are plausible alternatives here. -

I think, in his own mind, that Corbin believes he isn't making it up. Having said that we all know there are three sides to every story and we only have one. I also think that this is how arbitration works and and has thousands of times but very few open their yap about it. Every year teams go go arbitration with players over a couple hundred thousand dollars and most can accept the process with out airing it to the media. I'm not for the owners or the players but what Corbin did wasn't productive in any way and not a good look for him even if he is right. -
For the first time since I joined this board, I am seeking out other content and sites. This issue by far outweighs many of the good changes.

I agree with the articles. Whey not just have a separate section for the articles?
-
But they don't play the same position at the same time. And that still does not give the individual player any control over how many balls are hit to them.
-
I agree here, how does the player have any control at all over the volume of opportunities they get.

To be fair, the injury to Rosenthal after his acquisition was a completely different injury than what he was rehabbing when they got him. Unless we are holding the Brewers to a predictive standard this is apples and oranges. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/08/trevor-rosenthal-likely-to-miss-rest-of-2022-season.html

Well yes, I don't think he had a brain injury that would make him forget how to do baseball. I think the Brewers are pretty comfortable with that. I would suspect he may be limited at least early in spring training but again, he isn't the first person to undergo these surgeries and they are most likely being done by preeminent doctors with top notch rehab. He isn't going down to the local strip mall to recover. At the end of the day the only factual position is that the Brewers have far more insight, medical and otherwise, into Winker than any of us schleps so I'll go with their evaluation. The results from Yelich are much more likely due to a chronic back issue than the knee. Unless you have definitive proof that this version of Yelich is a direct result of a knee injury...

Specifically with regard to the return Milwaukee got in this trade, it reminds me of the Winker trade (and maybe the Tellez trade to a lesser extent). They seem to be able to identify undervalued talent.

The only rumor I remember about Wong involved Seattle. I don't think suggesting Seattle and Milwaukee just matched up on the trade is any more straw grasping than it is to suggest nobody wanted Winker. We don't really know but then again I haven't seen a huge trade market for OF (or DH really) help. The rumors about Seattle pursuing Wong, and then actually trading for him specifically do suggest they wanted him that badly. Everything I have seen seems to indicate Winkers issues were injury related. If there is an actual reason for his decline then sure, I would have more reason to doubt but I can't think of another MLB player more primed for a return to "normal" than Winker. Perhaps the reported clubhouse issues decreased Winkers value for the Mariners and they were going to ship him out one way or the other. Wouldn't the first time a team has done that. You could be correct. I have no idea but the reality is you're grasping just as much as anyone else. I agree your assumptions are typical for you but I don't think they are typical for most.

Contreras to Cardinals - 5 years, $87 million
82brewcrew82 replied to wibadgers23's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
A guy with negative war and one that will never sniff the majors, those two don't even arise to "just a guy" status. Either way, Tellez is a significant improvement over a guy with negative war and a career minor leaguer. I don't disagree with your evaluation of Tellez, he is certainly replaceable but that wasn't the question at hand. -
I disagree, care to explain your stance?
