I am not flaking on him, the high end ceiling is there. I am just looking at the question "Which prospect would you be willing to part with". If we have Pratt at SS, Made 3B, Turang 2B with Pena, Jett, Fischer, Ebel, O'Rae and other in the IF he is kind of blocked until 29 or so. He has top 20 prospect value so we would get on of the top bats or arms on the market for him. Trading a guy like Dinges makes sense but we only likely get a middle reliever for him which is meh. Trading Pena would get us a needle mover. I like my Pena, Sal, O'Rae, Gasser, 2 non Hardin/Letson pitcher proposal for Buxton and Joe Ryan. I would only trade Pena for a star. -
OHere are expectations for the guys we got. Ware. Of the group he has the biggest upside. He should have the runway to average 30 minutes a game which should put him around 15/10 with a block and a half per. My worry with him is that he averaged under an assist a game and just over 1 free throw attempt. I think he ends up being a borderline allstar in the mold of a young Brook Lopez. Jacquez. We probably need to give him a rookie level extension along the line of what Jovic got from Miami (4/64). With no star he should be a guy who could score 20 a game with more usage. He is a good passer and seems to play hard. I think there is a younger Tobias Harris style player here. Herro. If he is open to like 3/105-114, I could see keeping him. If he wants over 40 million I would probably trade him for a couple picks if we can get it. Herro isn't my favorite but he is a good scorer and could be a solid 3 on a winning team. Jac. Clearly the biggest wild card, big point guards can be boom or bust. If he can play defense and shoot it well he has some Josh Giddey qualities I like. I doubt he end up being a score in his prime but he could be a 16/8/6 style leader. The picks could be pretty good, at 13 we have lots of options if it is a contribute now player like Lenderbourg/Mara or more of a developmental player like Steinback/Lopez. The future picks could be really good since Giannis will be 35 in 2030.
-
Also Trent, Harris, Sims, Prince, and Porter have player options (AJax team) that is a lot of roster spots. I would guess Prince, Trent, and Harris pick up there option and deplete some space for Bogoljub.
-
I would guess it depends on of we take more players on in a Turner or other trades. I like the overseas tape I saw off him and would make a spot for him if I could. He seems like a guy who can be a stretch 4 with some upside to be a higher end player if he can continue to develop.
-
Rollins, Herro Jacquez, Ware, and then draft Mara or maybe Steinbach? Youth, shooting, defense, size. It would be a pretty solid lineup.
-
4 young players and 3 1st with a swap is a good haul. If we can trade Herro great of not I do like a Rollins, Herro, Jaquez, Ware starting rotation with whatever we get for Turner or draft picks. I am happy for the return, sad to see Giannis go. I will always root for him to win another ship. I dont think he and Bam work without a top notch outside scoring guard, but I wish him the best. I read someone propose Turner for Jakob Poetl, Gradey Dick, and a 1st (19 or future pick). I dont like Poetl and his contract but a young shooter and a 1st would be a decent return.

Brewers (TBD) vs Reds (Singer): 6/22/26, 6:10pm
jay87shot replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Archived Game Threads
I did not expect that tonight, the changeup especially looked brilliant. If he can at least be the guy we saw at the end of last year (before injury) he will be huge. Hopefully Henderson is getting close to some rehab starts. Misi, Harrison, a healthy Woody and Henderson is a playoff rotation. Gasser and Drohan have looked really good as 5/6 starters with 3/4 upside still. Throw in maybe Hardin or Sproat finding some consistency (was bad last year to start the year and really good the 2nd half) and the rotation will look better than we envisioned to start the year. -
Earlier I read that if we trade for Brown we would keep him. On one hand, I dont mind that because I don't think there are many good picks to be had right now and we could always trade him at the deadline or next offseason. On the other hand, Brown with no supporting cast is probably similar to last year like 30 wins or so and we dont even get our pick. May as well get something now, I would think we could at least get our Dame picks back and a couple good young players from Portland. Giannis and Portis for Brown, Hauser Gonzalez, 2 1sts Brown for Scoot, Clingan, Grant, our 1sts and swaps (maybe an extra Portland pick for good measure Trade Grant and Turner (Kuz, Green, Hauser) for whatever scraps we could get without taking on any massive bad contracts.
-
That's my point, I take the wording as we are trying to get Wiggins and the Heat arent inclined to add him.
-
Does anyone have a scouting report on Jose Meneses his stats are intriguing? Is there enough stuff to be a legit reliever?
-
I dont think this class will be as good as the Made, Pena, Anderson, Ortuno class but it could be close. I think the depth might better.
-
Has there been any talk about Jacobs recently? I know we have time but it would be nice to add a vet like Austin Ekeler (if healthy) if we know Jacobs is going to be suspended.
-
Would Hunter Goodman be of any interest? I know there really isn't a spot for him but we could move Vaughn at maximum value Goodman could fit well as a backup catcher, 1B, and he even has had some OF time. He is cheaper and more controllable than Vauhgn or Bauer at 1B and with our success improving catchers defensively he could play 1B next year and then take over for Contreras if Quero and Dinges arent ready. Obviously we would need to clear out playe appearances and as mentioned Vaughn makes the most sense. I would think we would need to orchestrate a 3 team deal were we get difference maker in return. Here are some 1 for 1 ideas. Vaughn for Aroldis Chapman The Sox will trade Contreras, Vauhgn has a year of control and they badly need offense or there GM is toast (unlikely to trade with us?) . We get the best reliever in the league for a run. Vaughn and Coleman Crow for Sandy Alcantara We get a potential high end starter and the Marlins boost there playoff chances with a bat and a starter to fill in Alcantara spot. Goodman for Jett Williams, Sal Frelick, and 2 starting prospect other than Hardin or Letson.
-
I would add some guys who I think will be top 100 guys by the end of next year like Payne, Ebel, Letson, Frontada, and maybe even Bitonti (probably some more). I think trading these guys would be a mistake because they will have way more value at some point in the near future.
-
With Pena having so many issues like hitting at the end of last year and injuries this year he might starting to be my answer. With him having top 20 prospect value we could get a really good return and we have IF depth and lots of rising prospects to cover losing him.
-
I think we are trying to get Wiggins and the Heat want Jovic. When the reports say that our Heat offered would leave the cupboards bare I think that has to be a Wiggins reference. Larson or Jak wouldnt leave the cupboards bare.
-
If you take out the first month or so he is hitting over .270 I believe. I think I would move him slower than Pratt. A year a level, unless of course he goes nuts at some point. I dont think he is trade bait now but maybe at next years deadline he can be a top 100 prospect. With the IF depth ahead of him next year could be a trade year. If Made takes over 3B until Turang leaves he maybe should get some 2B work. I have Pena lined up for 2B but if Ebel could play all the IF spots (throw in 1B for good measure) he could force the issue better down the line.
-
Other great things today other than Frias, Adams, and Made. O'Rae stole his 34 base in 59 games. Another Fischer bomb, 2 in 4 AA games. I think someone mentioned Cam Wagoner closed the game out today. I personally feel like he is quickly threatening Yoho for top reliever prospect in the org..
-
Garcia with a sac fly to tie it at 5 for Wilson. Lamada single and there are 2 on 2 outs for Hamdlefry.
-
T-rats lead 14-1 in the 9th. The 1st 6 players in the lineup with multi-hit games, Dinges and Dickinson with 3 each. Dingers for Dinges, Dickinson (1st), and Ragsdale. Even with no Fischer or Josh A (Payne sat out today as well) this team still has a ton of fire power.

Running 2026 MLB Draft Thread
jay87shot replied to wiguy94's topic in MLB Draft & International Signings
I've tried to pay attention to the CWS a little. UNC has 2 interesting bats in OF Owen Hull (mlb #158) and SS Jake Schaffner (mlb #91). Hull .398/.506/.614 8 HR (85 rbi) 26 2B, 2 3B, 18 sb, 44 bb/40 k Schaffner (from Janesville) .352/.467/.551 6 HR, 19 2B, 7 3B, 26 SB, 44 BB/30 k Both dont have a ton of power upside but do have good size and athleticism. I think either one would be solid picks after the 2nd round (maybe 2nd for Schaffner). Both are a little old so I cant see either rocketing to far up draft boards. -
Black, Wilken, Baddoo with jacks, Baddoo's was a granny. Dubaniweicz with another solid start, he is becoming one of the best pitching prospects in the system.
-
I doubt we would get much more than cash considerations or a like 21 year old in rookie ball. I would prefer to trade Sal and get a decent reliever back.

Brewers (Harrison) vs Braves (Sale): 6/20/26, 3:10pm
jay87shot replied to Brandon Glick's topic in Archived Game Threads
Tough one today, I dont mind Ashby closing that one. I was looking at splits earlier for Turang, he is only hitting like .170 vs lefties and .300 vs. righties. I dont think I would sit him but maybe he needs to hit like 6/7 against lefties until he turns that around. -
If Cooper can hit anywhere near .250 with solid defense, good baserunning, and keep his strikeouts low like in the minors he will be a huge upgrade. He is off to a nice start, hopefully there is some Brice Turang and the power will come through in a couple years.
