    Oh, OK. So they couldn't bounce him back and forth from the minors without exposing him to other teams. But they'll be exposing him if they remove him from the 40, too.

    They can keep Reyes on the 40-man, can't they? Not saying they should.

    There are hundreds of ways. Sign Peterson at $4M per, and sign the best reliever you can get for $4M. But that's not really how a salary budget works; many of our players will get increases in 2023, and the $8M will just get dissolved into the overall budget. They could try to extend someone and the money goes there.

    While I've warmed on the idea of picking up his option, there's no way I'd want a year added to it. If his defense continues on its current path, he'll soon be unplayable at 2B.

    I fully expect they will sign (ML contract or spring training invite) 2-4 RP who are currently on the scrap heap and see which one works.

    A couple weeks ago I thought the Brewers would surely decline Wong's option. Now I'm not so sure, and it all depends on what they can do with Jace Peterson. If they bring him back, Wong should be gone. Urias becomes the super-utility (3b probably the most), and Turang plays several positions, but mostly 2B. Brosseau does Brosseau things. If they don't bring Peterson back, Wong could come back. Urias becomes an almost full-time 3B, Turang becomes the super-utility, and Brosseau continues to do Brosseau things. I'd rather have 2 years of Jace for $8M total, rather than one year of Wong for $8M. Then there's the option of acquiring (trade, FA) a full time 3B; in that case, Wong is gone. There aren't many opportunities to acquire a better 3B than Jace without paying a lot (Like $36M a year for Arenado).

    His BABIP in September is .354, after being .300 in August and .277 or (much) worse in other months. He was .349 last year (with MKE) and .325 over his entire career. So we should have had more faith when he sucked.

    When they pinch hit Rowdy for Hiura yesterday, although he had walked and doubled, and the pitcher was a RH, against which Hiura has done best, might have convinced me that CC (at least) doesn't want Keston on the team. I'd be pissed if I were him.

    After Sunday's games, ESPN has our chances down to 21%. Now SD does have a better chance than PHL.

    people need to stop suggesting Ruiz play 2B outside of an emergency. He was very bad there.

    ESPN increased the brewers' chances of the playoffs to 30.7% after our win and PHL loss. What's odd is that they give PHL a higher chance than SD, in spite of being a half game back. I guess SD has he harder schedule?

    I agree with most of this, but Yelich is going to play a lot in the OF. I see no reason to transition him to 1B unless you expect his hitting to bounce back significantly, because his bat is pretty bad at 1B. Taylor could be traded.

    Any team can have a 3 game winning or 3 game losing streak at any time. So, sure, it's possible. ESPN has the brewers with a 25% chance of making the playoffs; that's about right. But those chances can change considerably every day the teams play.

    I'd love for Peterson to return, but I'd peg the chance at around 35%. This will be his first chance to get a good payday, and I think he goes for it. If Brewers can do something like 2 years @ $4M a year, it's a no brainer. If someone offers him 4 years @ $8M or more a year, he's gone. The $3M option on Boxberger ought to be picked up. I'd give him a 85% shot of returning. They're moving on from Narvaez. Severino or Feliciano will be on the roster. I'd put Narvaez's chance of returning at less than 5%. Rogers will only be back on a short, cheap deal. If they can sign him for a year at $4M, sure. If it takes 3-4 years at $6M or more he's gone. 20% chance of returning. And WONG? It's not complicated at all. He's gone. They can spend the $8M better elsewhere. Less than 10% chance of returning, and only if Peterson is gone.

    you naysayers do realize that generating clicks generates $ for the site, right? So do you want it to fail? Or would you rather pay $50 a year?

    Is Reyes on the 40-man? seems like he's been around awhile.
