This is the first time I've even seen this hinted at, so I don't get where the "likely" comes from. I honestly don't think the Brewers are in a position to non-tender .800+ OPS hitters...Unless you think they're going to go into next season with a Yelich, Frelick, and Ruiz outfield, which they aren't. Renfroe has been a real asset for us this year...

Provided he stays healthy over the next couple of seasons, this title will almost certainly belong to Corbin Burnes. And Corbin Burnes already has a Cy Young, which Sheets never came all that close to winning.

The Aroldis Chapman return will almost certainly never be replicated in the history of this game. That was exclusively a one time deal. So, we were never getting Hassell, who was the key part of the Juan Soto deal. Juan Soto's value eclipses Hader's by an almost infinite degree. And the tweet you are referring to was completely made up. There is no indication that the Brewers were ever in on Soto, nor should they have been with what he eventually went for. We will always need a farm system, and trading for Soto would have completely emptied ours, not to mention taking guys like Ashby off the MLB roster. You say you miss Doug Melvin... Well, have you even bothered to compare their two records? 4 (potentially 5) playoff appearances, including game 7 of the 2018 NLCS vs. 2 playoff appearances, including several woeful seasons....

What makes you think his K% will suddenly decrease when it has done nothing but skyrocket since 2019?
-
It's not that he "probably wouldn't have continued to." It's that he wouldn't have with a 45% K rate and .520 BABIP...

You do realize that stats like K% are hugely predictive of future results? Which means that given further at-bats hiura’s numbers are all-but-certain to dovetail…The hrs are great and all but they don’t say as much as to what he will do going forward. Why should the Brewers let him go through that downturn in meaningful games during a playoff run, especially with how the offense has come out on fire to start the second half?
-
Adames is not similar to Hiura at all, especially with the Ks. Adames Ks 27% of the time, which is below league average but not that extreme in today's game (guys like Trout, Buxton, Story, Stanton, Schwarber, etc. all K more). Hiura, on the other hand, Ks an astronomical 44% of the time, which would be the highest K rate in the league by nearly 10% if he had the at-bats to qualify. Never before in the history of the baseball has a guy K'd that much and still managed to be a productive player... Also, you leave out the fact that Adames is an excellent defender, whereas Hiura is.......not. Combined with his home-run hitting prowess (leads all NL SS), Adames' value becomes so much higher than Hiura's, as exemplified by his clear top 5 NL/top 10 MLB SS WAR.

Everything I've read is that the Nats wanna resolve the Bell situation first so they can focus all their attention on Soto.

Exactly. Turang is rated as a 60 grade defender by most services. So, if he can continue to hit around .280-.300 with a high OBP and even a little power, he should prove to be quite valuable.

SS and 3B are not “holes”.The Brewers are getting top 10 MLB production from those two spots. The only so-called “black hole” there has been on this team this season was CF with Cain and Davis. Taylor has helped somewhat though we could definitely use an upgrade there. The main problem is we’re long on average to slightly above average hitters, while lacking great/elite hitters. Bell would definitely help with that based on his production this season.

I would just make Bell the everyday 1B regardless as he grades out as a better defender than Tellez. Then, Tellez at DH against RHP and McCutchen at DH against LHP, with McCutchen also seeing a little time in the OF.
-
Bell is a great fit. We desperately need a middle of the order bat who can make contact and drive in runs with runners on base. Bell is precisely that guy. We're not in a position where we can turn down guys like him. My guess is he would be the primary 1B and McCutchen/Tellez would share DH duties. Keep in mind that McCutchen can also get time in the outfield and Tellez shouldn't be playing against LHP.
-
Bell is the power hitter we need to slot in the middle of the lineup. Also, hits for high average, plays a decent 1B, doesn't strike out, AND hits LHP. I'd be all in if I were Stearns so long as such a deal doesn't involve Chourio, Frelick, Wiemer, etc. which it certainly shouldn't.

They announced today that Cousins is headed on a rehab assignment.

Agreed. Quero is approaching top 100 status here with how young he remains and how well he's been hitting as a "glove-first" guy.

Yep. As a pure rental, Benintendi is simply not going to get into Wiemer/Frelick/Turang/Mitchell territory. Why I like him and his fit.

Go get Soto, Yankees. We'll just take Benintendi...
