    Just another offseason of the Brewers doing nothing.. Last year was the exception and we saw what it did for them.. Too worried to make trades, too worried to spend money. That’s why this team will never be in the World Series again.
  2. Jkromb
    One of two things happens today.. 1. We stand pat. 2. Somehow by a stroke of a genius Stearns will trade for DeGrlm and Realmuto making us the NL favorites.
  3. Jkromb
    Serious question, but what the hell are the Padres doing trying to be both buyers and sellers when they are the worst team in the NL?
  4. Jkromb
    I just saw him suggested somewhere.. maybe Shaw could play that 2nd Base?? Haha
  5. Jkromb
    What do we think about Donaldson as an alternative to Machado?
  6. Jkromb
    Don’t bother trading for him.. I’d actually trade away Aguilar, Braun (if LA wants him, let’s just get a bag of balls), Kratz and Knebel need to get cut, Salad sucks, Shaw can’t hit, this team sucks.. just had one good month..
  7. Jkromb
    He was always a good pitcher until injuries slowed him down.. I would maybe give up a top 20 piece for him, but I doubt that’s enough to satisfy the Reds.
  8. Jkromb
    Archer trade is finally coming to fruition.
  9. Jkromb
    Is he actually really that bad defensively?
  10. Jkromb
    Brewers trade for one of, Stroman, DeGrom, Thor, Archer, Hamels, or Happ. Offer depends on what player the Brewers are getting.
  11. Jkromb
    Would love this too, but is it realistic??
  12. Jkromb
    Stearns is all bark and no bite in my honest opinion.. he says a lot of stuff, but doesn’t follow through. We aren’t getting DeGrom or Thor no matter how much I’d like to see it happen. Expect smaller moves like Happ or Hamels and maybe a bat or two.

    I think Peralta and Burnes both have top of the rotation upside. Even with Degrom we are far from the favorites to win the division much less the World Series which should be our ultimate goal. Next season we could have a terrific rotation with Nelson, Peralta, and Burnes in it and the lineup should be so much better with Hiura at second base. Looking at the big picture we will be much better off in future seasons by keeping the system intact. Hiura really looks like our only impact bat even close to the majors. We just cannot afford to give that up. Yes Degrom is great but he has a lot of tread on the tires and pitchers get hurt so often that the risks of trading a potential star bat like Hiura plus Peralta and Burnes is just too risky. The Yelich trade was much more understandable because he is a young position player with 5 years of control vs 2.5 of Degrom. I don't understand this need every time we are decent to go all in. We aren't losing anyone important after the season and have a potential star in Hiura plus some nice pitching that will contribute next season. Bottom line to me is just stay the course. Go out and get good rentals like Asdrubral Cabrera and a bullpen arm like we did last year with Swarzak. Those rental deals cost us nearly nothing last year and we can do that again this season without mortgaging any of our future. Well then let’s go get Thor, who is 25 and has like 4 years of control.

    IF we have a chance at DeGrom or Syndergaard, we are doing whatever it takes to get one of them imo.
  15. Jkromb
    Manny Machado..
  16. Jkromb
    In the end game, it is a business, and a player like Machado brings you a lot more exposure and could even get us time on the national market.
  17. Jkromb
    if he can do it, why not? takes care of one issue. plus Santana gets playing time, plus Thames/Aguilar can stay up.
  18. Jkromb
    MJS reports that Braun may play some second base this season. Thoughts?
  19. Jkromb
    I agree with no one being off limits but I'm not moving Hader for those names. I'd need the level of Syndergaard or Bumgarner to be talked into moving Hader. DeGrom and Stroman are pretty good though.. we arent getting a Syndergaard or a Bumgarner..
  20. Jkromb
    Hader, Burnes, and Erceg for Stroman or DeGrom.
  21. Jkromb
    What would the Brewers have to give up to get both??
  22. Jkromb
    NOOOO
  23. Jkromb
    So is August the earliest this happens?
  24. Jkromb
    I was going to ask if you guys thought Hiura could make the team out of Spring Training.. if he tears the cover off the ball right away, do you think he can do it? the glove is decent enough and his said ETA is 2019, so i dont see why not..
  25. Jkromb
    Who do you guys think the Brewers should target at 2nd Base??
