  1. Bobby declines his player option and is now a free agent.
  2. What’s up with Garrett Mitchell? Hasn’t played since the 25th, but he didn’t leave that game early or anything.
  3. “Similarly: Fascinated to see what the Brewers pitching machine does with Daniel Norris, who is throwing harder after years of injuries, and already has elite changeup drop. Milwaukee knows a little about changeups.”
  4. I think Turang is a good-defense, high-contact SS/2B. What has set off alarm bells for me is the drop in his walk rate. Even when he struggled in A+ in 2019, he drew LOTS of walks. Right now, he could be "sold" high. Honestly, I think the Brewers would have been better off dealing HIM for Escobar instead of Hummel, given their need for a long-term solution at first (and Ernesto Martinez is in Low-A). I know you really, really love 26-year old Hummel a great deal, but to say that the Brewers should've traded Brice Turang for a few months of Eduardo Escobar sounds like sour grapes. Brice is a 21 year old 1st round pick who's rated by almost all prospect evaluators around the game as a top 3 prospect in the Brewers system, and is currently #74 in MLB Pipeline's Top 100. He's hitting .272 in Double A while he's ~3.5 years younger than his competition, and while his walk rate has dropped a bit, it's still good. You didn't bother to mention that his strikeout rate has also dropped significantly, and his ISO is at a career high. Again, he's very young for the level he is performing pretty well at. If the Brewers deal Turang, it will be as part of a package for a controllable player coming back, because his value is almost infinitely higher than a 26 year old guy without a real position who hasn't tasted the big leagues yet.
  5. That's correct, the Rangers are paying the remainder of his 2021 salary.
  6. Joey Gallo scratched from the Rangers lineup edit: heading to the Yankees. gross
  7. Toro seems like a really solid get for the M’s. Switch hitting 3B, replacement for Seager eventually
  8. I really don't want Hosmer, as we already have a high-paid lefty who beats the ball into the ground a lot, but he apparently has a 10-team no trade clause that includes the Brewers anyways: "Eric Hosmer has a limited, 10-team no-trade clause for 2021. The teams he can block, per source: BAL, CLE, DET, MIL, OAK, PIT, SF, SEA, STL, TOR."
  9. Go after an elite bullpen arm who's a rental, which will dampen the cost slightly: Raisel Iglesias.
  10. They felt like they weren’t getting some calls when the Brewers were at the plate, which caused La Russa to get tossed. The pitches he was whining about were definitely balls though.
  11. Feel for Woody getting hosed this inning, but that’s a terrible pitch to Farmer with 2 outs and Castillo on deck
  12. I think he's the 2B of the future, and will end up being one of the best all-around 2B in the National League.
  13. Congratulations for being right? I still don't understand the need to be blatantly pessimistic but you do you. I think hoping for the tie, starting with the runner on 2nd and Suter on the mound, was incredibly optimistic.
  14. Feed it to Brook down low with Kaminsky on him
