Crew likes to trade from strength (surplus). I could see Houser OR Lauer plus a young outfielder (Je Von Ward??) for a young controllable stud 3rd Baseman plus a few pitching prospects. Don’t know who that 3rd Baseman is.

if Turang is considered ready with the bat, why wouldn’t the Brewers move Adamas to third. This would allow Turang to play his natural position and frankly be more comfortable, which also ought to help his bat. This seems like a very “Brewers like” move. Other topics I believe the banning of the shift will really help Yellich. It seems the number of hard hit balls by Yellich to short center will change from 4-3 outs from short right-center into base hits. Catcher- I would like to see the team bring back Omar Narviez and pair him with Feliciano. I think Narviez’s OPS will jump with the ban of the shift for the same reason as Yellich, and believe the staff respects his defensive and pitch calling abilities. With some reinvestment in the pen, combined with a May call up of Frelich and a deal for a veteran or two at the deadline and the Brewers have a shot at making a significant impact in the ‘23 playoffs.

Re. Next 1.5 yrs. Given where they are, July 4 & +2.0 in standings, and given all that the team has endured in the first half, plus some of the generational talent on this squad; I think ownership and management says to themselves -Let's win the NL this year. Looking league wide, there really aren't that many teams that are in buyer mode, but there ought to be a bunch of sellers, so maybe that keeps 'pricing down' in the trade market. Definitely adding 1 or 2 outfielders depending on injuries & maybe Dahl from AAA if he gets hot. recall Braves added 3 OF starters last year.) A middle reliever or two this summer. '23- The organization clearly decided we're going to develop young pitching talent, they're definitely not changing now. More of the same, while slowly bringing in young OF talent. I'll be shocked if Hader isn't moved, but obviously the other GMs around don't value him the same way Brewers do, otherwise he would have seemingly been traded already.

Joey Wiemer: The Future of the Brewers’ Outfield?
Under the Roof commented on Cole McCormack's blog entry in My MKE Brewers Blog
Re. Joey Weimar - Definitely won't see him w/ the crew this summer, since the club would need to add him to the 40-man and all that goes with that. 'Seems like part of a larger package to win this year -OR- is called up in May of '23 on some three city West Coast road trip to get his feet wet...
