    That's highly unlikely though. The Braves have something to play for while their opponent KC would send themselves to Baltimore with a win while a loss assures them they'll play Houston. Seems like a clear incentive for KC to lose to Atlanta today
  2. True Blue Brew Crew
    Any role that the Padres play in all this? Would it be advantageous for them to completely throw the game today against Arizona to ensure that doubleheader has to be played tomorrow? Afterall, they want a team forced to play on Monday and then fly cross country Monday tonight too

    The line in Vegas has either stayed the same (+2.5) or widened (+3) since it was posted at the start of the week. That's the clue that he's not playing this week

    You mean like the way Corbin Burnes scuffled out of the pen in September and October in 2018?

    Switching hotels after this final regular season series would be smart. Do you think they'll do it?
  6. True Blue Brew Crew
    I really like the idea of Mets players being in the same hotel room for nearly a full week at the start of a playoff series against the Brewers. I get cabin fever in the nicest hotel rooms in Vegas after 3-4 days. I can't imagine being in the same Milwaukee hotel room for a week plus. Gimme the Mets in round 1.

    He's gonna be a Dodger. It's the easiest call in the history of free agency

    Yoho should be in there because the Brewers are in a pennant race and he's better than half the guys in the current pen. I still don't think many here understand how filthy that dude's stuff is
  10. True Blue Brew Crew
    It's no exaggeration to say that not only is Chourio the Brewers best player, he's playing like one of the best players in all of baseball since mid June. Take a look at his batting numbers then add in the defensive runs saved and stolen bases and tell me how many other players are even in the conversation over that span. And doing it at the age of 20 is outrageous. I don't even want to post his numbers since the All-Star break because I don't think anyone would believe them

    Could you simply just chill out with the absurdly lopsided trade suggestions? I have a feeling it would greatly decrease the amount of testy replies you get back. It's legit bringing down a subforum that should be very interesting to peruse this time of year
  12. True Blue Brew Crew
    Was Yoho in their top 30?
  13. True Blue Brew Crew
    I counted 100 wRC+ or above to get to that above 25% figure. That's an average MLB hitter, no? Getting one for free ain't a bad deal. And a 1 in 4 chance at zero risk is definitely worth the try
  14. True Blue Brew Crew
    So what you're saying is that when the Angels picked him up for nothing they had a 1 in 3 chance of getting a productive MLB hitter? And a better than 25% chance of getting an above average hitter? Because that doesn't sound so bad

    There's a reason you try to insert Wiemer into every trade proposal and every trade discussion. It's because he's been terrible this year and you're down on him. MLB GMs aren't stupid. They're aware of his struggles too. And they're aware that his reconstructed swing might never be MLB quality. He's a throw in at best right now.
  17. True Blue Brew Crew
    Sounds a lot like 2023 Brice Turang
  18. True Blue Brew Crew
    This was my first thought as well. What is this guy gonna have left in the tank at the end of this season? And with the way the White Sox are abusing the heck out of him with these pitch counts, what are you getting out of him next year even if he holds up in 2024?
  19. True Blue Brew Crew
    Ho hum just 5Ks in 2 innings for non BF Top 20 prospect Craig Yoho in his AA debut
  20. True Blue Brew Crew
    Weirded out by the lack of Craig Yoho on this list. That guy could get MLB hitters out at a decent clip today with his stuff. Barring injury, I know that guy is going to get to the majors. There's zero chance that every one of the current BF Top 20 makes the show. I don't care that he's a reliever. A surefire major leaguer is more valuable than toolsy prospects who each need about twenty things to continue to go right to get to the bigs. Either way, having a guy well on track to be a high leverage MLB reliever who can't crack your top 20 is a good problem to have.

    The "always take the most money" narrative is silly. I'd bet we've all made at least one choice in life to take less $$$ in exchange for something else on the whole. And now we can also toss the narrative that Counsell needed to be close to his kids. That was kept alive by Chicago's relative proximity to Milwaukee. Cleveland being where Counsell would be right now if not for Chicago blows up all remaining narratives. Counsell was not returning to Milwaukee. And toss the notion of taking a year off too. The question we all should be asking is why was Counsell dead set on managing elsewhere?
  22. True Blue Brew Crew
    Still think this is first and foremost about creating leverage in trade talks in their current or future trade talks with regard to their surplus of OFs. What logjam? But, I think it's time to at least consider Frelick is naturally talented enough to be a legitimate major league infielder.
  23. True Blue Brew Crew
    No doubt Cleveland would have stung less. But the real boat people are missing and have been missing from the start, is that Counsell really, REALLY wanted out of Milwaukee. That should be clear by now but I get the sense that it's not
  24. True Blue Brew Crew
    I think people have to start coming to grips with the fact this wasn't just about money. Counsell wanted to be elsewhere...period. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2024/02/25/mlb-free-agent-rumors-scott-boras-cody-bellinger/72732176007/

    Jayson Stark polled MLB execs, scouts, and coaches and after Dylan Cease, the next most likely players to be traded this Spring among those polled were Adames and Williams. Given most of those polled are currently employed by MLB teams, you can safely gather that their names are being discussed more than usual... https://theathletic.com/5290024/2024/02/22/mlb-players-trade-predictions-spring-training/
