    Turang with 12 whiffs in his last 20 ABs. He's really struggling right now and needs some days on the bench. It can't be today with Hamilton also being a lefty, but soon. Right now he needs Perez to make a mistake so he has a chance.

    A real clunker for the offense. Yelich whiffing with the bases loaded pretty much sealed the game for Cleveland. Turang sure didn't help either. He is in a bad slump with the stick. 4 for his last 20 ABs with 11 whiffs. He needs to sit or be moved down in the order. I know Murphy hasn't any options other than playing both Ortiz and Hamilton at the same time, but right now Turang needs to sit for a while.

    As horrible as Turang has been laely, he's probably a better option than anybody else Murphy has. Arnold has to do something about the left side of the infield by the trade deadline. It doesn't look like Williams is ready yet and the black holes at 3B & SS have to be addressed.

    Bubic would be a nice "get" depending on the price. Obviously a rental, but he would be a good addition.

    Workman just doesn't look to be even an after thought. He's hitting .158 with a .158 OBP in a small sample size. 16 Ks in 38 PAs. A .254 hitter in the minors with a 33% whiff rate. I don't see him being any better than what's on the team now, no matter how weak. Rather than get a guy like that I'd rather see the Brewers promote some of their own talent.

    I think the Twins refuse immediately. Besides Pena and possibly Frelick, there isn't much there for the Twins. They would require much more. Ryan has a mutual option for $13+M next year and if he continues to pitch well he will certainly refuse it and seek a better pay day, so the Brewers would get nothing for him.

    A cap is desperately needed, but for anything to work you can't have one without the other.

    Machado is making Burnes' type money so Milwaukee couldn't afford him, just like Burnes. $25+M this year then $39+M after that. So far this year Machado is hitting .178 with an OPS+ of 70. That's going to change, but the money is far more than the Brewers would pay.

    Frelick's bat has been one of the biggest disappointments so far this year. Two huge chokes in cosecutive ABs. Failing to get Bauers over by hitting the ball to the left side with and no outs and then the choke in the 9th. Yelich didn't help matters either by whiffing with the two runners on. The good news is Bauers came through to get one back and Milwaukee won two of three from the lowly Twins despite going 4 for 32 w/RISP. Hopfully they'll start hitting again against the cubs.

    Lewis is making $2.9M and is arby eligible in 2027. He's hitting .170 (BABIP .211) and not fielding well. He does have a little power and might be slightly better than Rengifo at 3B. However, I wouldn't trade Lara for him. Wilken maybe, or a collection of fringe prospects.
  11. wntrtxn21
    Great job by Ashby getting out of the minor jam. Mitchell's K's are quickly becoming alarming. He's whiffing at a 40% rate.
  12. wntrtxn21
    Sproat is the million dollar arm, 10 cent brain guy. Send him back to the minors to learn how to pitch. Why keep running him and his 7 ERA out there. Bring up Crow or Henderson
  13. wntrtxn21
    The Astros would laugh hysterically at your offer. They don't consider themselves out of contention. The A's are leading the division and they are one game over 500. Houston currently has 15 people on the IL and see the division as winable once their plethora of injured get back. Ortiz probably would have to be a minor part of a much better (and far more expensive prospect wise) package to get Pena.

    Mitchell whiffs once again on a high fastball! He's going to have to make an adjustment very soon. Woodruff throwing nothing but fastballs and the Brewers are down 1-0.
  15. wntrtxn21
    With a black hole at 3B and SS, a mess right now in the pen, and questionable starting pitching, it doesn't look too favorable right now. The OF will be better once Churio is ready to go, so that's a plus.
  16. wntrtxn21
    87-75..... Fight it out for the last wild card. Win in the first round and lose the next. Too many weak spots in the lineup to be a serious W.S. contender. Woody is not looking good so far with the major dip in velocity, so the young pitchers have to perform right from the start.
  17. wntrtxn21
    Megill -- Uribe -- Koenig -- Ashby -- Anderson -- Hall -- Zerpa -- Sproat I believe either Henderson or Sproat will be the 5th starter with the other going to the pen as a long man. If Yoho has a very good S.T. he could take Zerpa's or Anderson's spot.
  18. wntrtxn21
    Don't get too carried away. This current team still has a black hole at 3B, a big question mark at SS, a question in the OF, and a lot of unproven starting pitchers. The young talent coming up is one of the best groups in baseball, but they are still unproven. I've seen three MLB rankings so far and none of them have Milwaukee with 90 or more wins. All have them have the cubs winning the division. However all of them have the Brewers making the playoffs. I hope the questions can be answered in S.T. and the Crew once again proves the pundits wrong.

    KC increased their payroll by over $40M in 2015 to win the W.S... I have no idea what that would be in today's dollars, but they definitely spent some big time money (for those times).

    Right now the Brewers need to see if Williams can hit well enough in AAA to contribute this year. Spring training doesn't say a whole lot because most pitchers are just working the kinks out and don't have their good stuff. Nashville is crowded with prospects so they'll have to figure something out, but I think Williams will be in AAA playing CF/SS/3B.
  21. wntrtxn21
    I would love to get Abreu if he's cheaper prospect wise than Duran. Abreu is a GG rightfielder and has power. Like Duran, he'd make Milwaukee better right away. Williams is still a ways away. He may or may not be of any help this year. He has to learn to hit AAA pitching before moving up. Mitchell is far to injury prone to be counted on and Perkins is a 4th OF.
  22. wntrtxn21
    Reese McGuire is still available. Lefty hitter with some pop. Also a decent defensive catcher. Great for a backup to WC.
  23. wntrtxn21
    I think this is underwhelming for Peralta. The Brewers needed to get a big bat to play OF or SS. Williams isn't anywhere close to that. He offers nothing that Milwaukee doesn't already have an abundance of: little guys with almost no power who can play multiple positions. Certainly nowhere near the bat that they needed. Sproat looks to be a middle to bottom of the rotation type pitcher. He can maybe get a spot in the rotation, but the trade does absolutely nothing for the Crew this year.
  24. wntrtxn21
    I don't see any use in Rodgers. His defense is suspect at every position and the bat is also highly questionable. Mono is far ahead of him and there are a ton of young guys nearly ready to contribute.
  25. wntrtxn21
    I can't imagine the Brewers having even a passing interest. Nothing in either deal is even close to what Milwaukee is looking for. Are any of these guys besides Mayfield even in the Padres' top 20 prospect list?
