2023 Brewers Season Predictions (Post-ST)
edfunderburk replied to Brewcrew82's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I predict an optimistic 92-70 for these 2023 Brewers -

For many years … as soon as the schedule was posted … I blocked Opening Day on my calendar & submitted a request for taking the day OFF. For the past six years, I’ve owned my own business so I gave myself permission to enjoy this holiday!
-
I work hard almost every day of the year I’ve worked on Christmas Day, my Anniversary, & each member of my family’s birthdays In 40 years since graduating college, I don’t ever recall working on MLB #OpeningDay In addition to the Brewers & Cubbies, I plan to watch bits & pieces of all 15 games Today is my favorite day of the year
-
I wonder if the Brewers paid him the $2.2M knowing no other team would claim him in hopes he returned to their minor league team & one day became the player they hoped he’d be Probably not 😇 This is similar to Lindblom being paid a huge salary to toil in the minor leagues after performing poorly in MLB
-
Has anyone seen an “official” Brewers OD roster or have we simply deduced the final roster via adding & subtracting? I can’t find any post with the actual roster listed. I’m quite sad that Miller may miss the OD roster … also would love to see Wiemer get a chance. This should be a fun season - there will be lots of MLB-level talent in Nashville.
-
I’m as concerned about Winker’s mediocre offense in Spring Training [I know it doesn’t count - but he’s not hit the ball hard or well] as much as I’m concerned about him playing defense [which I hope doesn’t happen with so many other options I’m fine if he DH’s part-time until he begins to spank the ball again
-
If Adames gets a day off, I hope Turang slides over to SS & Urius plays 2nd … much better defensive alignment
-
If Hiura is claimed (hopefully - for him & Milwaukee) … Do the Brewers still owe him the 2.2M or does the claiming team take on his contract?
-
Surely we will know something soon Will he or won’t he be on the Brewers OD roster???
-
So, I was correct in thinking all they had to do prior to yesterday’s deadline was place him on the 40-man roster … interesting
-
Thank you … so “match the offer” means they could get outbid You indeed did answer my question - well done 🙌🏼
-
HaHa … thank you … yes, I read that too - I was asking for “clarification” on if this is the Brewers decision exclusively IOW, if they want to keep him, they can add him to the roster - even though he opted out & other teams make him an offer too … even a better offer I am asking if Voit prefers to go to Philly or somewhere else for more playing time & more $$$ - is it as simple as him saying “goodbye Brewers” - because we didn’t place him on our roster prior to the agreed upon opt out date
-
Do the Brewers get to keep Voit after his opt out if they add him to the roster or is it too late if he prefers other options?
-
I would be furious if the Brewers had dragged their heels & lost Voit to an opt-out if they were trying to keep Hiura … but that’s not their reason It seems they may want to take a flier on Wiemer as a RH power bat … he has incredible future potential & OF versatility + he has speed & a cannon arm from RF If this is their reasoning - I’m surprised & excited If you consider early May - when (hopefully) Taylor joins the team - I prefer Wiemer to Voit at that time
-
I’m concerned about Houser I’m hoping he has a big year for the Crew
-
I hope we keep Voit I hope even more we don’t keep Hiura We do have adequate coverage for backup IB (Brosseau & Miller) & DH - but I like Voit’s bat & veteran presence
-
I pull for whatever team has no Cardinals or the fewest Cardinals … I was rooting for Mexico against the USA & I will pull for them tonight against Japan too.

Now is a good time to trade Hiura … a rare non SO at bat … he got a hit & drove in two runs … trade value may be at peak - trade him tonight!
-
This is too good to be true I can’t see Oakland making that trade Milwaukee would jump all over that opportunity I would be thrilled … it appears one-sided & unlikely

Does MLB Need a Salary Cap?
edfunderburk replied to Matthew Trueblood's topic in Brewer Fanatic Front Page News
Yes … MLB needs a salary cap -
Ha - reh - bull
-
OMG! Hiura actually got a single … he didn’t strike out again … trade him while he’s on base & has value
-
Need ? ? Desire … might be the better word I believe we had Ashby in late 2021 too
-
Do we have a 2nd LH arm in the bullpen in addition to Milner? We look thin there with Ashby on the IL. I don’t think Small is the answer. I say no to Varland on the OD roster - even if we lose him back to LA.
