  1. Yeah, back in the day it was astounding how quickly some guys reached the majors. I don’t think Dave Winfield played a single game in the minors.
  2. Obviously, there's still a lot left to see with Contreras and Payamps but so far, this trade looks great. The initial trade was pretty meh, IMO, but the follow-up move to acquire Contreras and Payamps was freakin' spectacular.
  3. In the long standing tradition of San Diego, he's acting like a drunken sailor.
  4. I'm locking the previous thread because it has become so stale. So let's find the same old way to make this thread stale, too!
  5. Yeah, that's really the only concern with him. His contract is super-reasonable with multiple options.
  6. Also being a Twins fan, please don’t do this, Brewers. 🙂
  7. It will take a lot to get Robert but I think there's a semi-decent chance the White Sox blow up the roster at the deadline. There just isn't much mid- or long-term hope for them at this point.
  8. 3,700 people visited Brewer Fanatic yesterday, which is far and away the most in a day this year!

  9. Maybe but there is a lot of MiLB season left to play and I don't think he'll move much on midseason lists.
  10. To give some perspective on Chourio, MLB.com's #1 overall prospect, Jackson Holliday, is four months older than Chourio and started the 2023 season two levels lower in the minor leagues. Seeing a teenager merely hold their own against AA opponents speaks to Chourio's immense talent; it's not a disappointment. And Chourio isn't even deep into his nineteenth year. His birthday is in March. He won't turn 20 until we're almost into the 2024 season.
  11. He's still 19 years old and posting an OPS over .700 against AA pitching. That's not floundering, that's actually quite impressive. You realize the average age of a AA player is like 24 years old, right? By the way, MLB.com just updated their top 100 list like a week ago and Chourio is up to #3 overall.
  12. That’s an absurd overpay. Chourio is a top five global prospect. Alonso is a good player with 1.5 years of control whose contract isn’t super favorable.
  13. Trade season is sneaking up on us and MLB Trade Rumors released their first list of top 50 trade candidates. The Brewers have several holes that could be filled, some larger than others. The biggest and easiest target is a first baseman, though with Keston Hiura still sitting in AAA, it feels slightly weird to go straight for a marginal upgrade like CJ Cron or Carlos Santana before giving the enigmatic Hiura another shot. With the recent and complete implosion of Matt Bush, another late inning reliever may be in order as well. How do you approach the deadline? Do you work around the margins with a Carlos Santana or do you push some chips into the middle of the table and pursue a bigger name? And which names interest you from this list?

  15. First, welcome to the site! I wonder if Seattle is willing to sell from a public relations standpoint. The fanbase might revolt after seeing them make the postseason, see a quick exit, and then selling again the following deadline.
  16. Agreed. I won't cry if they acquire a reliever but most of the focus and effort should be on shoring up the offense, first base being the lowest-hanging fruit I see.
  17. Every win the Brewers log, the less likely a Burnes/Adames trade happens. The next three weeks will be very interesting.
  18. Yeah, it's an automated system that, at times, doesn't work very well. I'll mention it to the writers, thanks.
  19. MLBTR broke down the Brewers' need for a first baseman at this year's deadline (hopefully sooner than that, frankly). As of Wednesday morning, the Brewers sit 0.5 games behind the upstart Cincinnati Reds and the primary reason for that deficit is Milwaukee's offense, first base being the biggest underperformer of the group. Unfortunately, outside of Paul Goldschmidt, there aren't many clear upgrades at first base amongst the also-rans. Teams like Washington and Oakland are running out what are likely AAAA players while Colorado's CJ Cron, a very interesting name to keep an eye on, only returned from injury a few days ago and hasn't hit well this year. In the short-term, the best (only?) solution for the Brewers is recalling Keston Hiura to find an internal patch at first. View full rumor

  21. Afaik, both. But I would have to email and ask to confirm.
  22. A rep from FOCO mentioned to me today that mine is shipping out this week so... this week?
  23. There is a ton of cool stuff to check out around here, never hesitate to ping me if you have any questions or suggestions!
