  1. Better play is to trade Contreras in a couple years for a haul to keep the pipeline flowing.
  2. Chourio exits prospect ranking season (likely for the final time) as the consensus #2 prospect in baseball (among the 6 major outlets) behind Jackson Holliday and the highest ranked Brewers prospect of all time. Gary Sheffield, his only other real competitor, just predated the rankings era. https://www.actionnetwork.com/mlb/mlb-top-prospects-rankings-2024
  3. Guy was masquerading as a Cubbie his entire life. Good riddance and will thoroughly enjoy every Brewers W over the Cubs for the rest of his tenure, however long it lasts.
  4. I just don't see Frelick at 3B for a meaningful amount of time. 2B could be a different story, but 3B is a bit of a stretch imo. If I had to guess right now, Frelick still sees the majority of the season in the OF.
  5. I think he's going to keep the foot on the gas pedal and force his way up eventually. Hits the ball too hard to be in the minors for long. Unless he runs into contact issues, but so far so good on that front.
  6. Very nice sound off the bat here as he splits the gap between the shortstop and the third baseman. He's still a teenager for a few weeks folks.
  7. One of my predictions for this season is that he'll be the primary 3rd baseman by the end of the season.
  8. I'm starting to think he'll be sharing 1B duties with Tyler Black at some time in the not too distant future.
  9. If there's one player on this team that I'm not worried about losing his ability to hit a baseball learning a new position, it's Sal Frelick....
  10. Wes Clarke goes yard again!
  11. I think some people really underappreciate the extent to which Frelick's thumb injury sapped him of his power last year. He's never going to be a bopper, but he's got more power than he showed. That, combined with his elite BTB skills and his demonstrated ability to get on base will make for a fun player to have at the top of the lineup. Probably settling in around 2-3 annual WAR, maybe a little higher in his peak seasons.
  12. T-Minus 20 minutes until Brandon Woodruff is officially moved to the 60 Day IL....
  13. Honestly this makes it likely one of Turang, Wiemer, Mitchell, or Monasterio is going to get left off the OD roster.
  14. This ST is going to be so intriguing between all the younger guys, and I'm totally up for it.
  15. I view it as a 4 team race between Mil, CHC, STL, and CIN with any team having a reasonable shot to take it based on how several factors play out. If I had a gun to my head I would probably still pick the Brewers, but I wouldn't feel great about it. I do strongly disagree with the prognostications that put the Cardinals ahead of.the pack. Their rotation will be improved, but the additions that they made aren't as needle moving as people think. And Goldschmidt and Arenado are another year older. It will take big leaps from their young hitters such as Walker, Gorman, etc. Pirates are behind the pack, but I wouldn't totally rule them out. They've got some nice young talent.
  16. The guys we got last offseason didn't pan out. I'll give you that. But Hiura also got injured right as they would've considered calling him up and by the time he was fully healthy, we had Canha and Santana.
  17. I have a feeling we'll win a WS one of these years and the only two things you'll care to talk about about are 1) the Hader trade and 2) Hiura.
  18. Hiura averaged more PAs/season with the Brewers than Winker did in his sole season....
  19. Honestly, the fact that they're having him test out 3B and 2B speaks a lot about their confidence in him to hit and rebound in the power department after his thumb injury. It's good to see.
  20. He'd probably bump up to Carlos Rodriguez/Josh Knoth territory on my list if these reports are accurate. With the potential to get into the top 5 if he transfers this into the season and repeats his statistical dominance from last year. Always been a Henderson fan. Brewers have done well taking pitchers in the 4th round.
  21. Brock, gotta say, with McCalvy on the shelf and the continuing lack of a Brewers beat reporter for the Athletic, I'm pretty jazzed about this. Looking forward to the coverage and content and thank you!
