    This site proposes we land Starlin Castro: https://knowhitter.com/2019/01/18/detroit-tigers-trade-idea-jordan-zimmermann-gets-dealt-team-doesnt-have-to-eat-any-money/ Thoughts?

    I was actually thinking Knebel and Pina for Xander Bogaerts. Fills two needs for the Red Sox....we try Bogaerts at 2B and is insurance for Arcia at SS.

    Another groundball pitcher who could be aided by the Brewers shifts. ....and behold the power of a remaining option.

    I agree with all of this and if you took my team option on the fourth year as guaranteed, my suggestion would have totaled 4 years, $72 million with a team option for year 5 at $13 million and a $3 million buy-out. I do think any type of deal would have to frontload the contract at least a bit with de-escalating salaries through the contract.

    I really wouldn't trust him getting more than 2 WAR per season, on average, over the next three years. Is it 9.5 million per war? So 3 years, $57 million with salaries declining each year to help with our young players getting increases (2019-$21 million, 2020-$19 million, 2021-$17 million) with two team options, first would be for $15 million with a $5 million buy-out and the second would be $13 million with a $3 million buy-out. So if the Brewers would be done with him after three seasons he would still receive $65 million total with a potential to have him 5 years at $85 million.

    Maybe that's why we traded for Ben Gamel.
  7. ougiqbxy
    I wouldn't trade both of them. It's close, If the Rangers included a pair of tickets to Six Flags, I think the Brewers would trade both of them.

    I'd be fine with a not-old quality versatile 2B on a multi-year deal. Like Marwin Gonzalez. Not sure if anybody else fits the bill. Jurickson Profar
  9. ougiqbxy
    Can he play 2B?
  10. ougiqbxy
    I think Baines' selection was made to prompt writers to more seriously look at the case of Edgar Martinez.
  11. ougiqbxy
    I would do Corey Ray for Jurickson Profar in a heartbeat.
  12. ougiqbxy
    On MLB trade Rumors: Given that the rebuilding Rangers don’t figure to contend in the next couple years, they should consider trading the likes of Jurickson Profar and Nomar Mazara this offseason, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News opines. Although the 25-year-old Profar finally began living up to his top prospect billing in 2018, and is only projected to earn $3.4MM in 2019, the infielder is not under control past 2020. He can play passable defense all over the diamond and he started to produce last year. Only controlled for two years and under a reasonable salary this year. Could he be a better version of Hernan Perez who can actually take a walk?

    Thanks for being here.

    That's a very fair and, in my opinion, equal deal. Let's do it just to have some excitement!

    Answers within this entire thread... viewtopic.php?f=66&t=37816 That thread is for 2b/3b options. I am looking at it as a super utility multi-positional option that Hernan carries. While some over-lapping/redundancy between that thread and this, it is different.
  16. ougiqbxy
    Let me preface the conversation by saying I am one who loves Hernan Perez in the super utility role. He does what a 25th man should do and if the Brewers had someone like him in 2008 or 2011 (I so wanted Jerry Hairston, Jr. back then) the outcome of those season may have been different. BUt, the problem comes when Perez has to play extended time at a position because of injury or lack of production form others. For that, some on this board seem to think he needs to be replaced. If he needs to replaced, who would be able to fit his versatility, but may be better? My answer is Josh Harrison. He plays competent to plus defense in multiple positions, up until last year had a bit better OBP than Perez, and I would trust him to play a consistent role at 2B to bridge the gap to Hiura if needed. The pirates turned down a 10.5 million option on Harrison. Perez is predicted to make 2.7 million in arbitration this year. How much is the slight improvement in batting worth? Outside of Marwin Gonzalez who will be cost prohibitive, I don't see any option for the role Perez plays besides Harrison. Thoughts?

    Couldn't it be as simple as the Brewers checking in on another outfielder such as Michael Brantley, which would baffle some reporters/journalists who think the Brewers need to address other areas besides outfield?
  18. ougiqbxy
    Mets have released Mejia. Was once a good reliever, had a good brief stint in the DSL last year. Could he be an under the radar target for the Brewers?
  19. ougiqbxy
    If the Diamondbacks are intent in trading Goldschmidt then Thames becomes a possibility in a trade. Brewers receive Grienke. Diamondbacks receive Anderson, Thames, a low level flyer or two and do not have to pay down any of the contract. Them taking two contracts off our books helps enough. Angels receive two reasonable contracts to holdover on a rebuild while receiving prospects on a Goldschmidt trade to some other team. I like it
  20. ougiqbxy
    I could easily see the Brewers keep Schoop, try to keep Moustakas by adding a couple years to his one year option. This leaves the door open to trading Travis Shaw(with multiple years of control) along with prospects for someone. I think the team that is in flux and could be looking to upgrade a depleted farm because that farm cannot be made to bolster their decent team from this last season is the Mariners. Travis Shaw and a package of non-Frontline prospects to the Mariners for James Paxton.

    Carlos Rodon. Controllable, has upside. Pitching better last couple games.
  22. ougiqbxy
    Ramos has been discussed in a lot of other threads lately where he merits his own thread. Why not him? Rental with a high salary for Rays. One or two low level wild cards for him? We don't give up any of our top prospects and definitely shore up a position of need.

    Win-Loss Record: 83-79 Playoffs (Yes, No):No Highest Playoff Level Achieved: N/A All Star Game Representative(s):Domingo Santana Offensive Player of the Year:Christian Yelich Pitcher of the Year:Zach Davies Most Surprising Player:Tristan Archer Most Disappointing Player:Jhoulys Chacin Brewers offense carries the Brewers to a winning record while the bullpen unexpectedly underwhelms and Jhoulys Chacin implodes. Domingo Santana improves upon his 2017 numbers, gets into all-star game and then gets traded shortly after In a mega-deal for James Paxton and Mike Zunino. Christian Yelich is rock steady all season long for Offensive player of the year. Same holds true about Zach Davies as Pitcher of the year. With Chacin producing non-Petco Park numbers and injuries riddling Brewers 4/5 starters, Archer showcases what he can do in a 12 start stint down the stretch to keep the middling Brewers hopes afloat.

    Oh so close to a North Carolina/Duke final. If this were ever to occur, in my mind, there would be no doubt what the best US sports rivalry is.

    Final Four: Arizona vs. Michigan, Villanova vs. Duke. Finals: Arizona vs. Duke Winner: Duke
