  1. Tie between Freddy and Brice imo.
  2. Not sure the Cubs actually have an incentive to get this one in tonight given their bullpen situation following the shortened start.
  3. Earliest you can say the division is over is realistically next week. If they win 3/5 and exit Wrigley with a 9 game lead for instance with zero H2H remaining, I’m probably willing to declare it over. That would probably take what is currently slightly less than 10 percent chance of the Cubs winning the division to low single digits. Though, the “cupcake” schedule notion with the Cubs doesn’t move me much. They’ve had an “easier” schedule for a while now and are basically .500.
  4. 1. Peralta: His best season and the stabilizing force from the start with our rotation. People like to think of him as maddeningly inconsistent, but he's given us at minimum a chance to win in all but 1 game this year. So, so underrated by the fanbase. 2. Frelick: Took a leap from a batted ball perspective and turned him into an all-star caliber player with his hit tool and defense. The "pecking" starts with him at the top of the lineup, and the offense became the best in baseball pretty much as soon as he took over the leadoff spot. 3. Yelich: The emotional leader of the team. Not a coincidence the hot stretch started when he took off. 4. Collins: I keep thinking to how Mitchell went down and we instantly got better. He is the embodiment of this team's success and the archetype of a Murphy player. 5. Chourio/Contreras: Chourio literally carried the offense in July with his best month as a big leaguer and was our best player by fWAR (on pace for nearly 5 WAR) when he went down. Contreras has taken over in August since Chourio hit the IL, and has caught the best pitching staff in the league, which Murphy constantly talks about. Feel bad about leaving Turang out, which says a lot about how freaking good this team is. Probably should be on it, perhaps even at the top lol
  5. I wouldn't go nearly as far to assume out for the year, but this is not good. Almost certainly takes him out for the Cubs series.
  6. You've officially missed the point.
  7. The prospect price that was paid for those relievers this deadline was substantial. For Mason Miller, we would've had to trade Made.
  8. This is over 250 PAs which is not exactly a small sample. These are also his PREDICTIVE metrics. Not his surface level numbers. Which indicate that while he's not likely to continue to hit like prime Bonds, we're very much likely to continue to get high level production from him.
  9. What if I told you the Brewers added this hitter before the deadline.....
  10. Since when is Chourio going to be out for a month?
  11. At the end of the day it's still whatever imo. In the 1% event Quintana actually becomes something, then yeah the process becomes a major, major problem. From a strict on-field perspective, it allowed us to acquire Miller, a high-level reliever, for nothing. More than fine by me.
  12. He has a worse wRC+ than he did last year in the DSL....
  13. He's an average hitter in the ACL....The odds he never amounts to anything are like 98%.
  14. Quintana is mostly living off his signing pedigree at this point. Made and Pena were the hits in that class, and boy were they ever.
  15. Brewers are after O'Hearn.
  16. Dude, you're starting with a completely faulty assumption. Did you ever consider that virtually every one else here would give their right arm to see the Brewers win a WS? The problem is that the approach you're advocating for is far from guaranteed to result in a WS title. And depending how you look at it not any substantially more likely to result in a WS title than the approach the Brewers FO has been adopting of developing from within and generating as many opportunities as they can. Bottom line is just because we're enjoying the success of this season and other seasons doesn't mean we don't want more. The literal purpose of this game is to provide us with entertainment, and that aspect can certainly be lost when you're in constant consternation about how the FO isn't doing enough to accomplish something that only 1 of 30 teams does every year. Ring culture has ruined sports, and you seem to be an unfortunate, even if unwitting, byproduct of that.
  17. Logan Henderson would be a tough pill to swallow obviously, despite our wealth of young pitching. I like Adamczewski as much as anyone (not quite as high on Wichrowski), but we have to be realistic about their worth in the grand scheme of things. You gotta give to get, even for a rental. I'd be more apt to consider if we could swap Tobias Myers for Henderson.
  18. What’s the point of you being a Brewers fan if you’re already certain they’re bowing out in the first round despite them currently holding the best record in the league? Like what is the actual point?
  19. Seems like a price worth that could be worth paying. I personally value Patrick less than any of our other young starters with the exception of C-Rod. Secondary stuff other than his fastball variations just isn't there imo. Black remains positionless and the QOC is lagging. Suarez is only a rental so I'd still make this trade with gritted teeth, but we're talking about potentially the one missing piece to a WS caliber roster.
  20. We have 2 Steven Kwans already in Sal Frelick and Isaac Collins...
