Get Clay Holmes too why not??

Hearing It's for Coleman Crow and Josh Knoth.

I get that we build our good teams by being patient and not going "all in" but if we have the best record in baseball at the trade deadline as well as the best and deepest farm system in baseball, we deserve to get beat by the Cubs if they go out and make multiple moves to improve their team. There are no excuses to do NOTHING and I'm not gonna judge them until its over, but if they sit on their hands it is inexcusable.

If Orioles are really punting and willing to trade Adley within the division, is Henderson possible??

I think they should get Emerson Hancock.

Some mentions that Hunter Greene might be available. Ignoring that maybe the Reds don't want to trade him within the division, if our pitching lab gets their hands on him Miz and Greene is a devastating combo for years to come. That's a guy I would trade Pena+ for.

I mean maybe that's the price, but it's not the price we're gonna pay. Hope we can score off him in the NLCS.

Hopefully some decent rest and a very available pen is enough for a W tonight.

Yeah just because everyone knows Freddy would probably be very good for us the second he came back, he has been very bad for the mets and the price should reflect that. Half of what we got for him and another solid prospect in a position that will be open for us next year is too much for what he's done this year.

I would do right shoe but CERTAINLY not left.

I'm definitely not a prospect hugger and I am certainly more liberal about moving guys that many here but Henderson, Adamczewski AND Moneys for a rental? I'm sorry, what? If it were me, you either get Henderson and a risky bat prospect or Adamczewski and a much lower ceiling pitcher. And Moneys is too young and promising as a throw in.

I think Made is almost certainly untouchable unless for guys (like Wood) who are also surely untouchable. Pena I think is nearly there unless it gets you a great player with lots of control (Mason Miller? MAYBE Abrams if you think you can fix his defense and have him play 3B? Maybe Hunter if they are dumb enough to move on from him and then trade Bill in the offseason?) Adamczewski and Henderson are the ones that I think are possible for taking a swing at Skubal or a worse guy with control and it would be tough to swallow and even then perhaps the Dodgers can and will beat it. Fischer is a wild card to me. I think the Brewers should sell high on him given his swing and miss tendencies and I think it would be to a team that isn't as great at evaluating talent. To the Angels for Detmers? Quero is another guy I think you try and send somewhere if the return is good. I'm skeptical his defense ever gets there. Burke, Adams, Payne, Dinges, Gasser, Crow, maybe Drohan and Patrick are all guys I could move on from if a team desires them.

I love Vaughn on this teram, he's been great for us and is a great guy to have even if he's a big at bat off the bench late in a game. He's probably going to be our everyday 1B next year when Bauers leaves. But I think you need to be opportunistic and while I wouldn't go out of my way to actively shop him, if a team comes to you looking for a bat and wants to give you a controllable bullpen arm that you like in return, I think you gotta think hard about it. Very different circumstances, but I don't think the Brewers came into the year having any intention of trading Durbin and all his backups, but when an opportunity arises you gotta be open to it and it seems possible with Vaughn.

Also everyone always wants the Brewers to get power, and even in a down year Henderson has more homeruns than anyone on our team except Bauers. But to get back on topic - get Skubal too!

Yeah but he's also been injured quite a bit already and Skubal has won 2 Cy Youngs and you have the knowledge of your team having the 2nd best record in baseball. I'm not saying they SHOULD do it, but the price is what the market dictates and the 1st best team in baseball will certainly be ready if we don't meet the price.
