  1. I hope a lot of you are starting to understand after watching Weimer and Turang "hit" this year, that prospects are just that. Prospects. If the crew doesn't do something big this year then they simply don't care about trying to win a World series. I'm tired of the pussy footing around and making minor trades every year at the deadline and valuing their prospects so highly. That's BS. Trade whatever you have to trade to get some BIG, proven bats. Don't tell me they aren't available. Everyone is available for the right price.
  2. Yuck, if these are the kinds of bats they are going to be looking at, then why even bother? Not a single one of these guys are a needle mover. Slight upgrade? Possibly. Go big or go home. You might say, "there are no big bats available". There are if you offer enough. Everyone has a price. Since the Brewers refuse to sign big bats in FA, then it's long past time they acquire one(or two) via trade. Now, add one of these guys to a headliner bat? Sure, I guess that would be fine. But not if they are your main options.
  3. No big bats available? Make them available by your offer. It's that simple.
  4. Are you guys ever going to stop with the Winker bashing? I mean yes, he's been bad, but you are also the same people that are always against the brewers signing a big bat(s) in FA. You don't get to have it both ways. And yes, for the millionth time, the Brewers CAN do that. They can do whatever they want.
  5. Possibly but I was under the impression by talking to someone that knows his dad, that if the $$ was right they would have signed. I mean un signable guys are drafted all the time, if they go to college, well they go to college, but they still get drafted.
  6. Does anyone know why Cal Fisher from Deerfield wasn't selected in a 20 round draft? Many had him as the top player in the State and he was #150 on MLB.com's list of top 250 prospects. Just seems really odd to me.
  7. I mean even in the NBA you can't really trade picks per say. One team has to take the player the other team wants at that spot and then trade that way. It's dumb, why not just allow the trade of the pick instead? MLB should allow trades. I'm talking straight trades. Or any kind of trade. Say the Brewers trade #18 and #33, for #5 or something. Or they trade a pick(s) plus players for a pick(s). The year is 2023. .Come on MLB.
  8. Oh look, it's another Brewers trade that utilizes their favorite strategy...Hope. using such a solid strategy like that for as many years as they have, it's really quite shocking they haven't been to another world series during that time.
  9. Everyone talking about how Hader's value isn't what we all think it is must forget the Yankees got Gleyber Torres for a RENTAL Arlodis Chapman. If "this" was the package Stearns was in love with, his evaluation skills are lacking. To trade the best reliever in the game and not get AT least one of Hassell or Campusano is a total disservice. You don't get one of them, fine, don't trade Josh now then. Wait until the off season. You could have gotten at least as much then. Also, IF the tweet i saw yesterday is accurate that the Brewers wouldn't include Weimer in a Soto deal, then Stearns needs to pack his bags. That is absolutely inexcusable. This is what I mean, Stearns has no "bad ass" in him. He's too nice. He lets teams include players to even out salary without getting more back, and doesn't DEMAND more of a package then what they got. "Pay my price or we don't trade him" Simple as that. I really miss Doug Melvin. he was the "epitome" of going for it, and be rest assured, with the pitching staff they have now, and Melvin as GM, they wouldn't be making paltry little deals like they have been at the deadline. They would have been one of the big winners at the deadline the last couple years at least.
