  1. That's not even what he's saying...
  2. Chourio out of Zulia's lineup today. Looks like he'll finish his winter with a .379/.453/.530/.983 line 8 BBs, 8 Ks in 75 PAs. Next time he sees at-bats should be in big league camp. 2021: .204/.250/.286/.536 2022: .256/.291/.354/.645 #Improvement #Stud
  3. They did not treat Woodruff like a piece of meat. They treated him the same any other team in our situation would have. None of the other guys who were nontendered received a glowing official team statement like Woodruff did. Fact of the matter is that Woodruff is almost certainly not going to pitch this season and as a result there is no more value to be had with only one year on his contract. They’re actually doing him a favor by letting him negotiate the best deal for himself on the open market.
  4. Canha and Santana literally were difference makers for this team's offense. Just compare the team's offensive numbers before the trade and after the trade. Who cares about whether it's a big name? Plus those types of guys tend to empty out your farm system and severely affect your ability to win a WS in the long term, doubly so for a small market such as Milwaukee. It is so incredibly hard to win a WS. Despite their inability to get to that end goal, this franchise has been right there competitively with the big markets since Stearns and Arnold took over.
  5. Because they don't want to pay $12 million to a guy to not pitch for one season? This organization has made its share of mistakes (though fewer than at any time in its history over the past 7-8 years), but between this, Bauers/Toro trades, etc. people are grasping at straws just to hate on MA here. It's getting so irritating.
  6. Hell of a Brewer. Hope he comes back, but if he doesn't he'll always be a Brewer.
  7. That's not what I said? The point is we have competed against the big markets despite the inherent disparity.
  8. What? We haven't been competing? And don't say WS because plenty of teams have competed and not won a WS. We've won more games in the last 6 years than almost all of the big markets.
  9. Stupid decision would've been paying a guy $11 million not to pitch this year. If they couldn't come to a contract or trade agreement, this was the only move.
  10. A sad way to end such a great Brewers career. But if you couldn't come to an agreement for a 2 year contract, I don't see what else you could've done.
  11. Baseball America out with their 2024 Brewers Top 10. https://www.baseballamerica.com/teams/2030-milwaukee-brewers/prospects/?season=2024&ranking=preseason 1. Chourio 2. Misiorowski 3. Quero 4. Black 5. Gasser 6. Mitchell 7. Lara 8. Wilken 9. Rodriguez (SP) 10. Knoth Also recommend the chat with Badler. Good stuff in there. https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/milwaukee-brewers-2024-mlb-prospects-chat/
  12. Huh? They traded Renfroe because they had a cheaper option in Tyrone Taylor and the youngsters who ended up providing greater value. Didn't need to "replace him". It was just the prudent baseball move.
  13. I mean we are literally the smallest market in baseball and we consistently spend way above that level. Not sure what else you expect.
  14. Also, for anyone who thinks the Brewers would have interest in Morel as a centerpiece, let me direct you to one Keston Hiura to see how much the current Brewers FO values that sort of profile.
  15. Typo. GOP majority didn’t have enough votes to pass, so they needed help from the Dems, which the Dem leader milked to get MKE representation on the Stadium Board.
  16. Sure, and I'm keeping an eye on Cade Horton and Matt Shaw.
  17. Looks like the A's are going to become just the second franchise in half a century to relocate tomorrow. Relocation committee, headed by one Mark Attanasio, and Manfred have given their official stamp of approval. Thank God they were able to get the Am Fam funding deal done. Couldn't imagine losing my team. https://apnews.com/article/oakland-as-relocation-las-vegas-530bb1475a95e9c435947d5b44033225
  18. I mean the strongest argument against Mendez is his swing is atrocious. But it's also reality that the chances of hitting on two IFAs from the same class are next to nil.
  19. I'd put him at 17 between Henderson and Guilarte.
  20. Who is just above Paul Skenes in the national rankings.
  21. Yeah. Employee income tax and seat fee is the way these days, and even that is hugely controversial. You will never see anything like the 5 county sales tax again.
  22. I worked at the Capitol a few years ago when I was still in school at UW and retain some connections there. It was a real dogfight to get this through the Senate. They didn't have the votes until early this morning when the Dem leader gave the go-ahead to the fence sitters in her caucus after the amendment for MKE representation on the board and the increased ticket tax. Wouldn't have passed otherwise. Compared to when they first built the stadium, though, yes this was smooth.
  23. I would rather bring back Rowdy.
  24. Dunn offers the ability to play 2B, which Black doesn't really anymore. I would compare him more to Brice Turang anyways. And he seemingly offers more offensive upside than Turang. Granted, he's older. Moore is fine, but he really disappointed in Appleton this year. I'm not sweating his departure with all the upside IFers we nabbed in the draft this year.
