I think the nice thing with the current lead and September roster expansion is that you can just give Sal a day of here or there especially around a day of and hopefully that is enough. Same for some of the overworked guys like Ortiz, Contreras, Yeli, etc., it's not the end of the world to have them rest a few games down the stretch with Perkins, Seigler, and Jansen around.
-
You got to like the ability to catch as well, it will allow us to DH Contreras more and also PH the backup catcher if need be. My guess is that they will try and have him get some OF reps in the summer as well. He fits the Brewers mentality and philosophy to a T and make a great bench player with a similar upside to Isaac Collins. -
Got given some awesome cards today

I am a card collector at around 40 Chourio rookies. Just bought a Yount and Molitor rookies and at 5 Hank Aaron's. The Made, Payne, and Pena cards are nice only worth a buck or two unless they are special inserts or you do get autos, good luck. -
Good lord this team is as much see tv as I can ever remember. Go Burger Boys Go.
-
Ultimately I do trust Woody more but it kind of depends on the last 2-4 starts off the year. Whomever is pitching best should get game 1. I am not against Misi possible getting a game 1 start either but much much less likely.
-
What are we thinking Misi for like 2/3 innings and Hall for 3/4?
-
It's "The Burger Boys" time.
-
Wow, this team is playing so cohesively right now. Everyone is contributing and it seems like everything Murph and Arnold do has worked. Collins is quickly becoming a serious rookie of the year candidate to go with Misi, Durbin (possibly Patrick and Henderson is the had more time). The Jansen trade has clearly worked in getting William back on track at the very least. DL Hall's 3 2/3 innings were huge in saving the pen today after 2 shorter outings. With 15 games in 15 days that outing is really perfect.
-
This is the type of guy that we are great with. He throws 96 (98 or so in his really good 23 season) with a decent 2nd pitch. I guarantee we add a cutter or something this offseason and tweak him back up a mph or 2. He has had some injury unluckiest but is an easy guy to see a path back towards success.
-
We have had some really good bullpen but this one without Hader or Devin is by far the deepest. Maybe added in Yoho (or Henderson) come September and just let him throw in the blowouts to get adjusted to big league hitters. We have 5 guys (Uribe, Miller, Koenig, Ashby, Mears) that I would be OK with in the 8th inning of a playoff game. Add in Misi possibly if they decide to use him in the pen come playoffs.
-
I wouldn't give up Pena or Made for anyone other than Gunner Henderson who is untouchable I would think. It might be a better idea to get a vet at a lower price than a young starter at SS. Someone like JP Crawford or Kim (TB) would upgrade SS for a year and not cost as much and give Pratt, Pena, and 7Made another year to grow. I wouldnt mind going after Neto, Abrams, or a different young SS but if we have 3 guys that can/will be that good in a year or two why pay extra.
-
I would love to re-sign Woody. I think 3/60 would make sense if he finishes close to how he has started. The problem is how to address the 10 million dollar buyout. If we can go 3/60, someone else will probably go 3/75 or 4/90-100 and he would get the 10 million buyout on top of it. Can we give him a qualifying offer when he declines his end of the mutual option? I have been underwhelming the impression we could, but don't know how that works on players declining options.
-
Wow, 111 mph HR from a relatively small/thin 18 year old in High A. Its not to hard to dream on another 20/21 year old debut (or 2) in a few years. It also nice to see Will Childers having success in AAA. I would think he would have a good chance at getting some appearances in the bigs next year.

I would be nice to see Freddy put together a couple quality starts. Woody, Priester, and Mis are gaining as the top 3 for a playoff series.
-
Brutal, thanks.
-
Pratt hurt now as well. Our minors are getting so slammed with injuries. Has there been any positive injury updates on guys like Luke Adams, I know Dinges and Fischer are in the Bridge league and close to return. Exited that Pena and Made are moved up together. I am surprised Josh A didn't go with or before them but maybe the club is just giving a little bit more time back from the injury.
-
1) Re-Up Vaughn at least as of now (maybe try to extend if he plays well the rest of the way). 2) Freddy and Koenig to NYM for Ronny Mauricio and Jonah Tong (maybe a lesser prospect or two) 3)Extend Woody maybe 2/40 on top of the mutual 20. 3) Trade Mitchell or Perkins for prospect 4)Extend Turang and Frelick (buy 2-3 years of free agency around 15 per year) 5) Add the usual cheap vets and minor league contract. (C depth, low success high potential pitching) 6) Shop MeGill and Contreras for extreme overpay but no trade unless big package. 1)Sal RF 2)LF/CF Chourio 3)DH Yeli 4)C Contreras 5) 1B Vauhgn 6)LF/CF Collins/Perk/Mitchell 7)2B Turang 8)3B Durbin 9)Ortiz/Mauricio Bench: Catcher (Quero, Seigler, or cheap vet), Mitchell/Perk, Mauricio, Mone/Seigler/EMJ/Black/cheap vet Why chang what has been working Rotation) Woody, Misi, Preister, 2 of Patrick, Gasser, Henderson, Ashby, Hall Tong, CarRod, Crow Pen: Megill, Uribe, Mears, Anderson, Ashby, Hall, Yoho, cheap vet Not much changes, it would be nice to keep Woody or Freddy but we could be OK without. I don't no finances wise what my scenerio comes out to.

For me Quintana isn't a huge loss but he does still have some big upside still. But just the idea that we put such a negative value on Cortes is confusing. The Guardians got Khal Stephans a borderline top 100 prospect for Bieber. Cortes isn't the same pitcher but I feel like we should have gotten a Quintana like prospect not given one up. Especially if we are paying any part of Cortes. Locking doesn't look any different than Avans or any of the other AAA OF. It does seem like every other team got the Pads to overpay in deals and we got got. I do like the Miller deal especially if it is only a couple million for Montegomery (don't like much if it is the whole 7.5) As someone eluded to Montgomery would be a good minor league/minimum salary vet for next year.
-
For sellers vantage I think the A's did amazing for Mason Miller. Leo de Vries has superstar potential and the 3 arms they got have some sneaky potential. I also like Khal Stephens the return Cleveland got for Beiber, there is alot of potential there for a starter who hasn't pitched in a year and a half.
-
Not much for McGee but I would think Koenig would have solid value. It would be easy to move Ashby to the Koenig role and have Myers or Henderson move to the long relief spot. I would think that could be a positive move for now and get us a couple nice prospects. I really am not opposed to selling a couple arms if we could get strong returns.
-
What a great night for Brewers baseball all around. Great to see so many strong results. When do we expect to see some of the draft picks debuting? I would guess by Tuesday right. I would think we should get a look at almost all of the college picks and maybe even Ebel.
-
Let's get weird. 1) Maikel Garcia for Issac Collins, Joey Ortiz, and Jared Koenig. We get the big SS upgrade and KC gets young controllable depth. 2) Steven Kwan for Pratt, Patrick, Wilken, and Hunt It would be a steep price but Kwan would be a perfect Brewer with Garcia each of the package would be mostly blocked. 3) Danny Coulombe for Tyler Black and Carlos Rodriguez (maybe a lotto style 3rd piece). We upgrade the late inning lefty role for 2 more blocked young upside guys. 4) Jose Quintana for 2 way Conrad Cason and OF Zach Ehrhard We replenish the system and bit and don't hopefully lose anything when Cortes takes Q's spot. This gives us an amazing lineup, doesn't really hurt our rotation (still massive depth) and strengthens our pen. On top, of it we open up a bunch of 40 man spots for Arnold to work some magic with.
-
With Vaughn, Collins, and Durbin playing so well SS is the only position I would really want. If we got a reliever like Mears last year at a good price or traded for a late inning reliever relatively cheap I would be OK. On top of that buy low options like IKF don't do much for me. If we go after a SS I say go big, however I really doubt any of the better SS on selling teams are available. I haven't seen Castro play SS but from the stuff I've read he seems to be an emergency SS and not an everyday option. But like I said I don't really know.
-
I love Kwan but the only way this makes sense is the before mentioned move of Collins to 2B and Turang to SS. I do really like that move but 110 games in with both Turang and Collins having minimal time at each doesn't make sense. If this was the offseason, yes I get it. Getting a player like Kwan is going to cost more a bunch than we got for Burnes. Think close to what the White Sox got for Crochet. I would guess the Guardians ask for Pratt, Henderson/Patrick, Adams/Lara/Wilken, and a lower level teenage pitcher. In turn I would think we decline.

It took me way way longer than it should have to figure out who Bobby Petrol was. I like it
