    And the Brewers were the only team to send scouts to see Knoth?? Before he shut himself down for his team's playoffs? https://greaterlongisland.com/patchogue-medfords-josh-knoth-signs-2m-deal-with-milwaukee/

    It's a safer strategy to be sure. You're sacrificing potential upside for the offer in hand, though you still have the ability to negotiate another deal (possibly better) in case the Brewers pass at the pick. You're also saving your client potential anxiety from waiting and maybe your client wants to develop in the Brewers org. Looking at the specific numbers, Knoth basically got pick 43 money at pick 33. But there are also teams after 43 that could've offered $2m+ as an overslot deal as well. And the Brewers picked again at 54 ($1.5461m) and likely didn't think he would be there. As an advisor, you have to feel pretty comfortable that the other teams don't value your client as highly as the Brewers, difficult to know in the heat of the draft. The risk/reward and the math have to work (often the case at the top of the draft). It's a bit like getting an offer for your house and deciding to take it, instead of listing it on the market. In general, HS players usually want to sign overslot deals after the first 20 picks or so. Of course, there are only so many overslot deals to be had.

    It's probably a year too early for teams to be interested in Howell. 40% K rate in AA. He was thrown out 3 of 7 seven times in AA (small sample of course), suggesting he still needs more work translating his speed to SB at the upper levels, where they focus more on controlling the running game. Keep in mind they also had the step-off rule in high-A this year. Fielding pct was .929 on the IF. He may end up turning into something eventually, but having him be the last guy on the bench is not going to help his development. There's other unprotected players on the other 29 teams who are better risks. Here's an example, look at Max Schuemann in the A's system. A year older. Hit .320 in AA with 18% K rate. 52/57 on SB across 3 levels. Played SS in hi-A, 957 fielding percentage as IF in 2021.

    Brosseau has two options left, an option was not used on him in 2019 or 2020.
  5. dtet
    It would depend on if he were to sign a 2021 contract (he did) or a 2022 contract.

    I think he should've had the chance to sign for something like 20% of slot with the Mets and if the Mets choose not to make that offer, just let him become a FA. He should get some interest from Indy league teams and that could help his stock/development.

    It's been reported by Jim Callis that the Mets did not make an offer to Rocker (presumably b/c they wanted the pick next year). This will hurt his career, but there's not much you can fault him for.

    Ethan Small promoted to AAA.
  9. dtet
    Kirby 89-92, Small 88-93

    Mitchell is going to miss his time with injuries... better to just accept it and save yourself some anxiety.
  11. dtet
    Not a serious injury to Zavier Warren. Don't fret about him.

    Eddy had a good arm, up to 96/97, but doesn't seem like the control improved.

    Cozens is on the IL according to his milb page. (https://www.milb.com/player/dylan-cozens-622226). Not sure about Hummel. Nashville needs pitching, they lost Bickford, not sure if they have enough rehab guys.

    There are a lot of moving parts with this roster right now, obviously, with all the injuries the Brewers have at the major league level. There is a need for guys to fill the innings at Nashville.

    Kekai Rios is also at the alternate site.

    I believe it's because players entering the minors sign a uniform player contract which is an agreement for seven seasons of service. Since they were released by their initial organizations, the duration of their new contract was negotiated.
