    Yes. Better pitching would in fact help, considering Burnes and a healthy Woodruff back to back (to go with a shutdown bullpen) would be perhaps the single biggest reason why this team would have a shot at advancing in the postseason... You just don't get it do you? All you care about is the "name". "Oh there will be many bigger bats than him acquired by the deadline!" But, I just demonstrated to you how significant an upgrade it is from what has been BY FAR the worst 1B production in the majors over the last two months (27 wRC+ vs. 112 wRC for Santana). And we didn't have to sacrifice any defense nor our top 30 prospects to do so!

    Despite his regression with the glove, I'd be all for this as Arenado absolutely kills the Brewers along with Goldschmidt.
  3. Brewcrew82
    Jeimer Candelario is who I want personally. Double down on defense AND hitting.

    Not to mention, assuming everything goes well with these next two rehab starts, the Brewers will be adding a literal all-star to the team in Brandon Woodruff.
  6. Brewcrew82
    We just traded for Carlos Santana?

    Since June 1st here has been the Brewers' production at 1B: .186/.233/.241, 27 wRC+. (Worst in baseball). Now, here's Santana's production during the same timeframe .244/.319/.470, 112 wRC+. It doesn't have to be a "big name" to be a big upgrade.

    Urias is heating up in AAA, too. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him up and starting on the MLB club very soon. Unless Miller starts hitting better, he’s in real danger of getting passed up for playing time in the infield.
  9. Brewcrew82
    And they've absolutely failed in "throwing money at it". While mortgaging all of their prospect capital and failing at developing whatever prospects they do have. Which is why your take that they're somehow not one of the worst run organizations is "laughable" (but entirely on brand for you).
  10. Brewcrew82
    Yes. I completely forgot about him. He's perhaps the likeliest to go.
  11. Brewcrew82
    Carlos Santana will obviously have to be added to the 40 man and the major league roster. There is a 40 man spot available due to Jason Alexander's outright. On the 26 man roster, the most likely candidates for the option are Toro, Perkins, and Owen Miller. I also wonder if Urias won't be recalled soon, perhaps as early as this weekend. He has really heated up in AAA and with his track record in the major leagues, he's gotta get the shot in the infield.
  12. Brewcrew82
    Since June 1, the Brewers have gotten a league low 27 wRC+ from the 1B position. Carlos Santana is an immediate upgrade in every way shape and form. He also plays great defense.
  13. Brewcrew82
    I like Guilarte better than Severino, so definitely okay with the cost.
  14. Brewcrew82
    I would say it means Tellez is going to be your new DH whenever he does return. Not good for Winker. Not good for Hiura.
  15. Brewcrew82
  16. Brewcrew82
    Keston Hiura at time of callup: 22. Jackson Chourio right now: 19 and youngest player in AA by several months.
  17. Brewcrew82
    If I'm not mistaken, the Brewers have the weakest remaining SOS in the NL Central. Which will only get weaker after this weekend. https://www.tankathon.com/mlb/remaining_schedule_strength

    Yelich’s full no trade clause makes this about a 1% likelihood. Both player and organization committed to each other for the length of the contract when they signed the dotted line.
  19. Brewcrew82
    FWIW....
  20. Brewcrew82
    They somehow resurrected Heyward and turned the back the clock on JD Martinez. Definitely wouldn't put it past them.
  21. Brewcrew82
    Right. I'm not particularly high on those prospects either. But that's the best they've got in the minors right now and they just gave em away for two rentals, who I doubt move the needle in the AL playoff race. Most likely scenario is that Angels miss the playoffs, lose Ohtani for nothing, and then are in a huge mess organizationally with Trout and Rendon's contracts on their books and little in the way of young talent other than O'Hoppe and Neto.
  22. Brewcrew82
    Angels just gave away their top two prospects currently in the minors for two rentals. They better make the playoffs and/or resign Ohtani, or they're going to be in a lot of trouble organizationally, particularly if Trout keeps on missing months at a time.
  23. Brewcrew82
    The first blockbuster of the trade deadline has just gone down. Suffice to say, Ohtani is definitely not getting traded now.
  24. Brewcrew82
    Ohtani is not being traded by the Angels. He's off the market, as the Angels are going for the postseason.
  25. Brewcrew82
    And with your approach of mortgaging the entire farm, we'll still almost certainly fail to win the World Series and won't even get back to the postseason for a good decade or so. Braves lost Acuna in 2021 and "only" added Pederson, Duvall, and Soler. That's along the line of moves you'll see from Arnold at the deadline. I don't think anyone disagrees with you that they need to add bats. But they're going to do it "responsibly", as they should.
