  1. A little terrified of what it would cost to bring him in.
  2. With regards to a Devin trade, I think my order of preference here is 1 - One legit top 100 prospect (obviously the higher regarded the better) with helium 2 - Multiple lower level lottery tickets with intriguing traits 3 - Solid if unspectacular major league starting pitcher with multiple years of control 4 - Getting hit by a bus 5 - Stopgap IF with a year left on his deal
  3. Lux to the Brewers is the proposal that just won't die. Please, I beg the world, let it die.
  4. New ESPN "Trades we would like to see" article featuring Devin. Schoenfield suggests the Yankees and their "starting pitching depth in the minors". No names. McDaniel suggests the Rangers. Thinks they could get one player between Alejandro Rosario, Emiliano Teodo, or Jack Leiter amongst the arms, or a position player like Justin Foscue. I could get on board with any of those Rangers arms, but Foscue's limited options in the field and below average speed wouldn't seem to make him a good fit in Milwaukee.
  5. The other two teams in the category were the Rockies and Twins, though. I can buy the Rockies but the Twins?
  6. ESPN's got an article on one big move every team should make. When they got to the Brewers they were literally like 🤷‍♂️ we got nothing.
  7. @reasonablysober.bsky.social on Bluesky BSKY.APP sadistic crap legitimized by florid prose If you're on the new site. I'm interested in following fellow Brewerfans back.
  8. Brewerfan finally joins Bluesky, and the site immediately crashes for everyone. Way to go, man.
  9. Some really interesting things about the BA top ten. They're higher on Bitonti and Letson than I've seen anywhere else. Do they not consider Gasser a prospect anymore? I hope someone asks them about that one in their Brewers chat today.
  10. I had him at #4, behind Made, Quero, and Gasser. Felt like a good compromise between the iffy chance he remains a starter and the almost certainty of being an all-world reliever.
  11. For the record, while I'd like to see him in the Bauers role, I don't think that's likely. I think to have the Bauers role you need to be a solid defender and able to be subbed in late at the position. I like Black but he isn't that at first base right now. But who knows? Maybe he spends the entire offseason fielding ground balls and working on his digs. With a hole on the right side you'd think he'd make it the priority.
  12. He's had ten errors in 733 innings at first base. That's up against 463 putouts and 50 assists. In fact, he's carrying the exact same fielding percentage at 1st that Martinez does. Maybe it seems like an adventure over there at 1st with Black, but that's far from the case.
  13. He's got a better shot at starting next season in A+ than he does in Milwaukee. Come on.
  14. Passan: Anyone in need of a closer need only look at the National League Central, where two of the best in baseball will be available. Executives say Milwaukee's Devin Williams and St. Louis' Ryan Helsley are both on the market, and they expect both to be moved at some point this winter. Each has one year of club control remaining and will be in his final season of arbitration, with Williams expected to command around $8 million and Helsley $7 million. And considering the level of production they provide -- Williams had a 1.25 ERA and struck out 38 in 21⅓ innings after returning from a back injury, and Helsley punched out 79 over 66⅓ innings with a 2.04 ERA and MLB-best 49 saves -- the asks will be understandably high. Teams in the market for a closer could include the New York Yankees, Los Angeles Dodgers, Boston Red Sox, Texas Rangers and San Francisco Giants, though realistically any team would gladly add either Williams or Helsley to its bullpen. It'll be nice to have a bit of a bidding war for Williams.
  15. Seems like this is a list of guys you don't trade because their value, if they have any, couldn't be any lower.
  16. Woodruff a lock?
  17. TBH I was wondering that last month when the lists started coming out. But I'm a bit lower on some of the higher ranked guys in the org too. Hope I'm wrong on them.
  18. I thought I might have been too optimistic placing him #12.
  19. Why are the Brewers the team giving up prospects in this transaction?
  20. Baty is about to turn 25 in a few weeks. At this point he's a failed MLB prospect who's going to have to fight hard for a future in the sport. He's not someone you give up value for.
  21. What's buy low in this scenario?
  22. I think calling him the best reliever in baseball is a pretty big stretch. In the end it comes down to the return, and I think the days of relievers getting eye popping returns are mostly over. I'd really love to be wrong. I hope the Brewers trade him, but I won't be upset if they keep him, comp pick or not.
  23. BA's no worse than #3 all-time in terms of Wisconsin sports announcers. He can call as many games as he wants for as long as he wants.
  24. When I think about it, there's really not many packages I wouldn't accept for Devin. A one year 2-3 win rental on the infield? Sure. Some team's top ten prospect? Hell yes. A Yoho, Hunt, Burke, Wichrowski, Bitonti mid-org prospect? Yea, that'd be great. Lower level dudes with promise? Absolutely. K.C. Hunt is Pipeline's #29 prospect. I'd help Devin pack if we got some organization's K.C. Hunt back.
