  1. Curious how you could be critical of Chourio given he's done things that only a handful of teenagers have ever done and most have no business doing and possesses plus to plus plus tools across the board... He can be a bit overaggressive and doesn't walk as much as you'd like, but he's also 19 years old playing in the upper minors. I just don't see that much to be critical of.
  2. Maybe it would be competitive, though that SP staff is really weak and would probably be their undoing. But I see no reason to trade Freddy for those packages you outlined when his value should be similar a year from now.
  3. I don’t see a need to trade Freddy in addition to Burnes unless blown away which those proposals don’t really do. Freddy’s value isn’t going to be much different a year from now and the team has repeatedly stated they desire to be perennially competitive and not adopt a full-on rebuild.
  4. Chourio’s minor league slash line is almost identical to Acuna’s and they’re both among only 4 teenagers to ever put up a 20-40 season, with Chourio's occurring entirely in the high minors….. Franco and Soto also didn’t have to deal with a pretacked ball…
  5. Ahhh, lunatic hour wouldn't truly be complete without the drawing of an equivalency between the NBA and MLB's salary structure....
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. People have literally been "chattering" about this for months....
  10. 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...
  11. One also is elite at base running and defense while the other is well below average at both.
  12. 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+.
  13. Such a Stearns move.
  14. Hell yes. We have more OF prospects on the way anyways.
  15. Eloy Jimenez has no value apart from his bat....Robles was older and not as advanced with the bat...Nice one.
  16. 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....
  17. 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.
  18. No he's not. Hiura is not comparable to Chourio as a prospect whatsoever.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
  22. 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.
  23. The Braves have some really nice pitching prospects. I’d take multiple of AJSS, Waldrep, Murphy. Ritchie.
