I agree it's unlikely to happen but there is absolutely nothing stopping the Brewers from bringing up Chourio in two weeks and then signing him to an eight year deal with two options. I don't know if I'd call him up but I'd certainly lock him up immediately. -
This is such a nebulous thing about relievers. I can never figure out if back-to-back is really that damaging to some guys or if the sample size is so small that we can't determine anything real about it. But I think the reality of the situation is that Peguero is going to need to have his usage altered if he blows up again in the near future.

Young Brew Crew Spotlight Poll
Brock Beauchamp commented on Farming the Brew's blog entry in Young Brew Crew
Welcome to Brewer Fanatic! -
"Basically, Milwaukee has been the only team to be terrible on all pitches in the strike zone--swinging or taking."
-
After what happened last season, Arnold needs to pick up at least one more good arm. As Matt points out here, leaving things up to fate isn't enough. If you can put your finger on the scale even a little bit, you do it. That's especially true in this trade market, where there just aren't high-priced trades available. Work around the margins, do what you can. The Reds aren't exactly killing it at the deadline, either.

Mitchell, yes. Quero,

Ken Rosenthal rounded up a few rumors on trade deadline day and one of them caught my eye: the Milwaukee Brewers have been in contact with the Arizona Diamondbacks about left-handed reliever Andrew Chafin. The Brewers have had a rather active trade deadline thus far, headlined by the acquisitions of Carlos Santana and Mark Canha. But they're still in need of bullpen help, particularly left-handed pitchers. This rumor is particularly interesting because, as of this writing, the Diamondbacks and Brewers are tied in the standings for the final Wild Card berth. The Brewers likely have their eye on the division title - not the Wild Card - but there's a good chance Arizona and Milwaukee are competing in a zero-sum game at season's end. Chafin's stats are, at a glance, underwhelming. The 33-year-old's 4.19 ERA is quite bad... but his 3.13 FIP and 12.8 K/9 look great (though he walks too many). He has a club option for 2024 so he's not a rental. I'm kind of rooting for this to happen because take a gander at the guy... he looks like a Milwaukee Brewer. And that counts for something, at least to me. View full rumor

Did I miss that? I must have missed that. Thanks. My brain is a breakfast scramble right now, trying to hold 15 different ideas in my head at once.

Ken Rosenthal reported this morning that the Brewers are still in search of a bat, even in the wake of trading for Carlos Santana. No specific names are mentioned but it's likely the Brewers are looking for a right-handed bat that plays in a corner position or at designated hitter. Two names drawing a lot of interest are the White Sox's Eloy Jimenez and the Nationals' Jeimer Candelario, the latter of whom has become something of a darling of the 2023 trade deadline. At least eight teams are reportedly pursuing the player, according to the Nationals' general manager. Who should the Brewers pursue in the next 30-ish hours? View full rumor

I think it really depends on the desperation of other teams like the Yankees. I think it's *probably* a bad idea to trade Caratini but given how few teams are selling and how many teams have needs, I'd be picking up the phone on literally any player right now.

Congratulations, you've unlocked trade deadline weekend! Up to this point, the deadline has been rather quiet, as there are many teams still on the fence about selling and few selling teams have have clear upgrades at positions. MLBTR's Anthony Franco runs through the best remaining trade targets heading into the final 72 hours before the trade deadline, many of which should be of interest to the Brewers. Of particular interest to the Brewers: Mark Canha: RH OF, New York Mets Tommy Pham: RH OF, New York Mets Teoscar Hernandez: RH OF, Seattle Mariners Josh Hader: RP, San Diego Padres Who are your favorite trade targets and why?

Will Sammon of The Athletic is reporting the Brewers have expressed interest in first baseman and outfielder Mark Canha. Canha fills several needs for the Brewers by being both a capable first baseman and corner outfielder that bats right-handed. He has a 104 wRC+, slightly above league average but slightly below average for a corner position. Canha fits General Manager Matt Arnold's stated goal of prioritizing run prevention, as well. According to both DRS (Defensive Runs Saved) and OAA (Outs Above Average), he's neutral or slightly better than average at both positions. Canha is not a rental and the price will be reflected in that, should the Brewers choose to trade for him. He has a $11.5 million option for 2024 with a $2 million buyout. View full rumor

Bruce Levine of 670 The Score in Chicago mentioned that the Brewers and Marlins are expressing interest in White Sox slugging DH Eloy Jimenez. Pursuing Jimenez makes a lot of sense, as was argued by our own Tim Muma yesterday. Jimenez checks almost every box imaginable for the Brewers: he's still only 26 years old, he is cost-controlled through the end of the 2026 season with multiple option years, he bats right-handed, and he has an OPS over .800 on the season. The White Sox have been very active at the deadline but have only moved expiring contracts; over the past couple of weeks, they've reiterated that they will not move pieces they consider to be cornerstones of the 2024 season and beyond. The White Sox are also 20 games under .500 and have the 26th-ranked farm system according to MLB.com. It's possible they come to their sense in the next 72 hours and start moving players that will actually bring back significant prospect capital. View full rumor

I completely forgot about the Wilson signing.
-
Hah, yes, that's done automatically on the forum side of things! But also, thanks so much for writing this up for us!
-
No, nobody expected Rowdy to be this bad. I was pretty meh on Winker but given how Wong has performed, everybody lost in that deal.
-
Yeah, it's a good pickup, though slightly frustrating because so many of us wanted the Brewers to just sign Santana during the offseason.
-
I struggle to see a situation where Carlos Santana could sneak up on anyone, ever.
-
I find it hilarious that he has swiped six bags. It's something I never noticed about Santana before this mention.

MLB Trade Rumors collected a handy Brewers rumor roundup today, which is useful because while the Brewers have been their typically tight-lipped selves, there are still things to talk about. The Brewers are looking at middle infielders, though the names are a little strange Willy Adames and Brice Turang have underperformed offensively, which is driving the front office to pursue middle infield help Matt Arnold mentioned that any middle infield help would prioritize and preserve run-prevention Though no rumors are directly linked to Milwaukee, it's hard to envision them not acquiring a first base or DH bat Because the Brewers prioritize and hold their prospects in such high regard, it's possible they deal from a position of surplus such as Victor Caratini There's a lot to unpack here and many options open to the Brewers. What do you target first and why? View full rumor
