    I don’t like Mitchell much - a personal opinion - but Burnes and Wiemer for that trio is interesting. Losing those two pitchers will be hard for the Twins to stomach, I suspect.
  2. Brock Beauchamp
    But just stating my own opinion, I think Burnes + Wiemer for Lee + something is really interesting for both sides.
  3. Brock Beauchamp
    Burnes wouldn’t get Lee in a straight-up trade. I’ve said for a long time that Brewers fans are going to be disappointed with the Burnes return. He’s not going to net a top 50 prospect in the upper minors, which Lee is. That doesn’t mean the Brewers shouldn’t trade Burnes, though. They’re going to need good players in 2026, too. This is also part of the reason why I was clamoring for the Brewers to trade one of the big three last offseason. Now look where we are.

    Polanco is old and moderately expensive but if you can get 120+ games out of him, I *really* like him near the top of the Brewers lineup as a stabilizing force around Yelich. He's "pretty good" at everything offensively, something that the lineup badly needs. If anything, I like this trade quite a bit for the Brewers. If they're targeting Festa and particularly Prielipp, I probably make this trade. I like this trade less for the Twins, as Prielipp is a pretty big loss IF he gets healthy (always a risk). But the stuff I said earlier in this thread? It's not entirely unrelated to this link, hint hint. I guess my general thinking behind it is "if the Brewers see something in multiple pitchers, they should probably just make that trade". The Twins are increasingly good with a pitching pipeline but I have more faith in the Brewers' ability to identify something they like in a young pitcher and make the most of it.

    A potential trade idea from Twins Daily. https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/corbin-burnes-trade-rumors-jorge-polanco-david-festa-connor-prielipp/

    From Slack three hours ago... but we didn't feel comfortable enough with one source and couldn't confirm it.
  7. Brock Beauchamp
    This feels like a deal that precedes a series of other deals and will reserve judgment until it all plays out.

    I heard "Taylor is going soon" three hours ago but I didn't think it was going to be THIS soon.

    More information about "Brewers Waiting On Free Agent Market Clarity, Then May Pursue Willy Adames & Corbin Burnes Trades"
    Jon Morosi, appearing on MLB Network, spoke about how the Brewers are waiting for Japanese free agent pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto to decide on a team. After that point, the Brewers could more aggressively pursue a trade of Corbin Burnes and/or Willy Adames. This report matches rumors we have heard at Brewer Fanatic; Milwaukee appears to be shopping some of their expiring contracts but currently, there is no urgency in the negotiations and it's unlikely to see a significant trade before Christmas unless the situation changes in the next 48 hours.

    I’m not the person with the info, various members of our group chase this stuff down and share it. An update I’m hearing is that there’s zero urgency on anything right now and I’d be surprised if anything materializes before 2024.
  12. Brock Beauchamp
    I really can’t yet, we’re still working on it and until we feel like something more substantial is forming, we don’t want to start rumor-mongering things that end up being untrue. I can say that the Brewers are talking to teams specifically about Burnes but nothing appears close at this time.
  13. Brock Beauchamp
    I know specific pieces are being talked about but the general vibe I’m hearing is that no one is close yet. As you said, I think this remains in limbo until 2024 unless someone gets really motivated about it.
  14. Brock Beauchamp
    I’m hearing interesting scuttlebutt. The Brewers are definitely talking on Burnes but nothing concrete to report beyond that.
  15. Brock Beauchamp
    Like if you see vital text that's hard to read or anything that could be improved, please share.
  16. Brock Beauchamp
    I've spent the past couple of weeks with dark mode, identifying and fixing small display bugs along the way. If you see display errors while using dark mode, please share them here.
  17. Brock Beauchamp
    The Twins are actively pursuing a front line starter and I think they’re open to trading Lee. One year of Burnes isn’t enough for Lee, probably. If the Brewers are interested in trading Peralta, I think a haul of Lee+ could happen.
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    A huge concern. Caveat emptor with him, there's a decent chance his ankle is cooked. I mean, I think he'll keep being pretty good when he's playing but I'm skeptical how often you can expect triple-digit games started for him at this point.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    You’re right that Julien has little upside defensively but he was dealing with lower body issues for most of last year, he’s not actually that slow. But his bat has a floor wayyyyy higher than anyone else in this conversation.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    This simply is not enough to get Julien. The Twins aren't going to trade a promising young player for a bunch of decent-but-problematic players any more than the Brewers would trade Frelick to the Twins for Austin Martin and Tanner Schobel (the Twins equivalent of Wiemer or Mitchell).
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    I'd prefer to think it's a miscommunication. No need to attribute malice to the situation, we've certainly made a few blunders in the past.
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    Thanks, I didn't offer that up because I don't check the forum often and didn't know if it had fantasy content.

    Getting out in front of this
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    Heyman directly verified that Yelich's name has not been mentioned.
