    I think the safest assumption is that at least one of the young outfield prospects will fall short of expectations and that we won't have to worry much about an OF rotation/surplus. Mitchell and Wiemer are the most likely candidates in that sense due to the significant swing and miss in their respective profiles. Regardless, this situation will play out organically, and I doubt it will be as difficult a decision as some are anticipating.

    FWIW, Stripling signed with the Giants today for 2/25. Nice job on the contract numbers.

    Aroldis Chapman is a huge no for me, especially at $12 million. Not only is he radioactive and a potential cancer in the clubhouse, but his velocity and peripheral numbers are on a sharp decline over the past few years. All he really has going for him at this point is past performance and reputation, which is quickly becoming a distant memory. If you're shelling out that kind of money for Chapman (and Stripling), why not just bring back Taylor Rogers, whose underlying numbers are a lot more promising than Chapman's?....

    Probably because they still want a veteran to backup/mentor Shea Langeliers, the headliner of the Matt Olson trade last year.

    Real question is will Ruiz spend more time in Oakland or Vegas?
  6. Brewcrew82
    Re. Ruiz and why I'm absolutely thrilled with this deal, other than getting Contreras in return.
  7. Brewcrew82
    Justin Turner would be the #1 target imo. Especially if we could get him on a 1-2 year deal... Drury is more of a risk imo as this year was pretty much an outlier for him, and he didn't play all that great for SD.

    I wasn't here then, but not even the Yelich trade??
  9. Brewcrew82
    What's crazy is we could have literally given up just Ruiz for D'Arnaud, and I still would have been quite happy.
  10. Brewcrew82
    Glad to have you on board!
  11. Brewcrew82
    I think he's had an opportunity to force the issue for the Brewers, but he just hasn't done so. His defense still needs quite a bit of work and even his hitting isn't anything to write home about.
  12. Brewcrew82
    I wouldn't put it past the Brewers to improve Contreras' value defensively, especially after what we saw with Narvaez. Even so, I agree. This trade has little impact on Quero in the long run. If anything, we have less of an incentive to rush his development...
  13. Brewcrew82
    You let him continue to develop in the lower minors and wait for him to force the issue a la the Blue Jays. A really good "problem" to have.
  14. Brewcrew82
    Here's the only top 100 list I've seen with him in it...Even then, only listed at 92... https://www.justbaseball.com/prospects/2022-mlb-top-100-prospects/

    I prefer Justin Turner. Hopefully we can get to him before the Marlins do as it's rumored they've made him an offer.
  16. Brewcrew82
    And in one fell swoop, Arnold tells Stearns to hold his beer with the Yelich trade...
  17. Brewcrew82
    I was banging the Danny Jansen drum quite a bit over the past couple weeks, but that's because I didn't think it was possible to turn Ruiz into Contreras. Contreras is the better player and such a huge upgrade for this team.
  18. Brewcrew82
    So, insert Winker and Contreras into the middle of the Brewers order, huh...I'll drink to that!
  19. Brewcrew82
    I've been a defender of theirs, but this was a miss, for sure.
  20. Brewcrew82
    Matt Arnold for America, 2024....
  21. Brewcrew82
    Also, how much would the Hader trade improve in Brewers Nation's eyes if that is the case?
  22. Brewcrew82
    Only way we wouldn't have to give up more is if the Braves sent Ozuna to MKE...But the Winker trade would seem to make rostering Ozuna impossible to me...
  23. Brewcrew82
    Huh? Narvaez defensive value (Fangraphs) 2018-2019: -13.7. Narvaez defensive value (Fangraphs) 2020-2022: +33.4. Of course, that's not a be-all-end-all stat, but seems pretty indicative to me.
  24. Brewcrew82
    Here's hoping...
  25. Brewcrew82
    FWIW, Narvaez possessed worse numbers at C when we acquired him and we turned him into a well above average defensive C....
