    The Cubs just passed him through waivers, and he went unclaimed. If the Brewers wanted him on the 40-man, they just would have claimed him. That they didn't makes me believe this is a minors deal.
  2. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Guessing its a minors deal, but he was quite good at times in his time here. Doesn't hurt to have depth.
  3. Ron Robinsons Beard
    It is a little ironic that Joey actually started looking like the same guy offensively he was in 2024 (as the predominant 3B) as soon as he was moved off of SS this season. Probably just a coincidence ...

    Miz's All Star spot was already replaced yesterday. He'll be introduced, but that's it for his All Star participation.

    Pratt also had more than 66 plate appearances above A ball. The Brewers are typically very smart about not setting these guys up to fail, and throwing Fischer to the wolves at this point would be very non-Brewer like.
  6. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Fischer is a talent for sure, but he's only got 16 games under his belt at the AA level. He's not ready yet.

    Never in a million years. It would be worse than the Packers signing Jim McMahon to back up Favre back in the day.

    Enough of the "this team is going to go .500 or close to it" crap. They are good. Very good. 19-7

    This post proves why you are my favorite poster here. Continually proving the resident pessimists around here wrong with cold, hard FACTS. Thank you for your service.

    That is a very, very nice win.
  12. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Nice professional piece of hitting there.
  13. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Correct. Skubal is terrific, but teams no longer trade top MLB prospects for rentals.
  14. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Right ... it was a prospective deal proposed by an SI writer.
  15. Ron Robinsons Beard
    So now we've gone from "way better glove at 34" to "slightly better"? Things that make you go hmmmmm ... and wouldn't Mark Vientos at a -10 DRS in a similar amount of innings to Rengifo then qualify as the "worst 3B in the majors" by your metric?
  16. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Terrible overpay. Bohm has little trade value as basically a rental.
  17. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Did you look at literally anything stat-related before making this dubious and flat-out incorrect claim? Suarez was once a solid 3B, but is now one of the worst defensive 3B in the majors.

    - Both Chourio and Yelich hit 30+ HRs this year. - Jett Williams comes up in April and solidifies himself as a spark plug at the top of the order. - Garrett Mitchell stays healthy and has a "Comeback Player of the Year"-type season. - Andrew Vaughn's streakiness will be frustrating. - Brandon Woodruff emerges as the team's ace, setting himself up for a big payday next year.

    It did cross my mind that the players union itself may object to the idea of piggybacking. Considering arbitration raises, not to mention free agency contracts, still largely depend on old school counting stats like wins, Ks, innings pitched and so on, it would stand to reason that pitchers in a piggyback rotation are simply not going to accumulate those stats at the same rate a pitcher participating in a traditional rotation would. Not that the Brewers dip into the starting pitching free agent market often, but it wouldn't surprise me if a starter they were after had concerns knowing that he wasn't going to get the opportunity to go 5+ innings every five-six days.
  20. Ron Robinsons Beard
    That's a great problem to have. My hope is that they are never in the situation this season of having to sign a scrap-heap guy like Fedde and immediately throw him to the wolves.
  21. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Not sure that will work with pitchers required to stay down for 15 days.
  22. Ron Robinsons Beard
    2024 ... 2025 ... 2026. Rinse and repeat. The Cubs spend big money. Rankings algorithms like teams that spend big. But when push comes to shove, what happens on the field is more important. The Brewers have been better than the Cubs the last two seasons, and there is no reason to expect that trend not to continue in 2026, despite what the rankings services, experts, and pessimists right here on this forum say.
  23. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Your exact words were "close to developing into a TOR starter". I don't think anyone would look at Priester's results as a 24-year-old last season and not think that he would be on a TOR trajectory. See, I read carefully.

    I don't think you will ever see it happen. Teams like having bullpen depth too much. That's why piggybacking rotations has always been just the theoretical concept.
