I consider myself a rational fan. I am generally very optimistic, and the Brewers are having a season that I am enjoying immensely. However, it is possible to see the Priester and Vaughn trades as wins. Getting Woodruff back and inserting Mis into the rotation have been beautiful. While the FO gets credit for all that, the trade deadline is a distinct event. It is one last look at your team and determining if it can be improved. I think it is a diversion to point to previous good moves as de facto deadline moves ("We made our deadline move with the Civale trade", for example). I believe that a Willi Castro would have been an upgrade from Siegler. And they could have had it all. They chose not to. Doesn't diminish my fandom to point out my disappointment that they didn't do more. In fact, they seem to be so good at these decisions, that I want them to do more.
Shelby Miller's ability to get healthy and contribute is how I will grade this deadline.
