    Ahhh, lunatic hour wouldn't truly be complete without the drawing of an equivalency between the NBA and MLB's salary structure....
  2. Brewcrew82
    Sheehan or bust. This return is terrible because both Busch and Pepiot are on the older side. Plus Busch can’t defend and has shown some worrying signs with the bat in his brief MLB experience. Hard to see the Brewers having much interest in him given what transpired with Hiura.
  3. Brewcrew82
    Yeah he would. I wonder if the Brewers prefer to keep him though due to him possessing probably the highest floor of any of our young guys.
  4. Brewcrew82
    I approve of this nevertheless because this reportedly involves less money than the extension I proposed and still buys out around the same # of FA years. As I pointed out in that thread, the longer you wait, the more money you're going to likely end up paying. Can go rapidly from $80-90 million to $200-300 million.

    People have literally been "chattering" about this for months....
  6. Brewcrew82
    Again, with the "price going down" nonsense... He's likely the odds on favorite for NL ROY if he's indeed signed to an extension and brought up on OD. Demanding a trade/holding out? This isn't the NBA/NFL...

    One also is elite at base running and defense while the other is well below average at both.

    https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10098877-predicting-every-mlb-teams-2024-opening-day-lineup-version-10 Bleacher Report proposes trade of Sheehan, Busch, Rushing, Hurt+ for Burnes and Adames. Deal. Instead of signing IKF to replace Adames, I'd probably turn around and trade Devin to Baltimore for Joey Ortiz+.
  9. Brewcrew82
    Such a Stearns move.
  10. Brewcrew82
    Lol Angels are not getting Burnes.
  11. Brewcrew82
    Hell yes. We have more OF prospects on the way anyways.
  12. Brewcrew82
    Eloy Jimenez has no value apart from his bat....Robles was older and not as advanced with the bat...Nice one.
  13. Brewcrew82
    They can't pay that? Which means you're trading a (potential) superstar at 25 like the Nats had to do with Soto. And less chances at a WS....
  14. Brewcrew82
    Except it has nothing to do with how he ended up...No alley ooping necessary. Julio Rodriguez, Ronald Acuna Jr., Fernando Tatis Jr., etc. Those are the players who have accomplished what Chourio has at his age. Hiura was at UC-Irvine at 19.
  15. Brewcrew82
    No he's not. Hiura is not comparable to Chourio as a prospect whatsoever.
  16. Brewcrew82
    They don't have to but then instead of $100 million you're potentially looking at $300 million like Julio Rodriguez. The Brewers have never come close to that kind of deal in their history.
  17. Brewcrew82
    You're kidding yourself if you think you could do this a year or two from now and it wouldn't cost much. See Rodriguez, Julio. Also, love how you managed to bring Hiura into this conversation.
  18. Brewcrew82
    Might change your mind in 5 years when we're looking at trading a 25 year old superstar because we can't afford a $400 million+ contract. Look at how much Julio Rodriguez got and he wasn't even a year into his big league career....That's why the Brewers want to get this done sooner than later. A risk a team like the Brewers needs to take if they want to retain a talent like this for the long-term.
  19. Brewcrew82
    I was assuming it'd happen during the season, but nothing wrong with these talks occurring now. If an agreement is reached, would assume it all but locks him in as an OD starter. Brewers aren't going to be paying him to sit in the minor leagues.
  20. Brewcrew82
    The Braves have some really nice pitching prospects. I’d take multiple of AJSS, Waldrep, Murphy. Ritchie.
  21. Brewcrew82
    Chourio, since July 14, 2023 (including winter ball, which is effectively AAA pitching): 74 games, 336 PAs .335/.395/.536/.931, 8.6 BB%, 12.7 K%. That's pure domination. I couldn't care less what he did before that under a tacked ball he won't see in the majors at the same age as a college freshman. Not sure what else you need to see if he proves he's indeed up to it in ST. I'm not opposed to him spending more time in the minors. But I'm also not holding him down until he clears some arbitrary OPS threshold. We'll have a much clearer picture come late March, but the Chourio I watched in Venezuela this past month was ready for major league at-bats right now. FWIW, for the OP, he was literally a top 5 hitter in that league in which he's more than 9 years younger than the league average.
  22. Brewcrew82
    Sure worked for the Mariners and Dbacks, though just the last two seasons...If Brewers extend Chourio as they should and as those teams did, then any service time considerations become irrelevant. Torkelson isn't really comparable as a prospect to Chourio as he's a college player who provides almost no value apart from his bat. Chourio is 19 and improving rapidly.
  23. Brewcrew82
    You have to make contact to get to your raw power. While I'm hopeful he can make the necessary adjustments, particularly mechanically, it's far from a guarantee. And I don't know if he's more likely to successfully make them than our other guys.
  24. Brewcrew82
    I think we're better off getting our power infusion from the 1B position. Hoskins or even Garver would be a better fit and we wouldn't have to give up anything. A full-time DH with multiple years of control not really a fit with Yelich on the roster and the imminent crunch for OF spots we're facing, as well as the possibility of Quero supplanting Contreras defensively at C.
  25. Brewcrew82
    Honestly, the Brewers wouldn't be off base to ask for Walker Jenkins from the Twins. Jenkins and Festa and I'd do it.
