    Love this. Hated the idea of Haase or Nola as our backup C.

    It will never happen, but I kind of want the Brewers to do some crazy pitching system after signing Junis. Do 8 SP and 5 RP. Freddy and Miley pitch as normal SP. then have 3 sets of piggy backs with Junis-Gasser, Ross-Ashby, Rea-Hall. Have the 5 man pen be Williams, Uribe, Payamps, Milner, and a shuttle spot. Like I said it would never happen but would be super cool.

    No

    Nice depth signing for the Crew.

    My concern with a potential 6 man rotation is how do you shuttle that bullpen? Williams, Payamps, Wilson don't have options. Milner is the only lefty and barring a collapse too good to option. Megill, Peguero and Uribe were all really good last year and probably too good to be optioned. How do you shuttle with that bullpen?

    My comparison is poor man's Bo Bichette. Now that may sound crazy but look at this. Bichette's 2023 MLB numbers first then Ortiz 2023 AAA numbers second Avg EV - 90.2, 90 Hard-Hit% - 44.9, 44.6 90th EV - 106.6, 105.3 Sweet-Spot% - 38.3, 38.8 Chase% - 36.4, 32 Whiff% - 21.1, 16 K% - 19.1, 17.7 BB% - 4.5, 8.2 The huge difference between the 2 is one thing. Barrel Rate. Bichette's barrel rate was 9.6% and Ortiz's was 2%. They had pretty darn similar EV numbers and contact rates. Can Ortiz start elevating the ball better is the big question. I think he can probably improve it somewhat, but doubt he improves it to the level of Bichette who is slightly above league average in barrel rate. Poor man's Bo Bichette offensively with plus middle infield glove would be a very solid regular. Hopefully Ortiz can pan out.

    I doubt that trade gets you Cabrera

    Pretty hilarious trade suggestion. 2 crappy prospects and a constantly injured SP who has had 1 good MLB season for Adames and Wiemer...talk about hack job homer trade hypothetical.
  9. wiguy94
    2 years is a pretty big gap. Ortiz is 25y6mo
  10. wiguy94
    Hall is absolutely not a fringe reliever. His floor is probably a high leverage RP.
  11. wiguy94
    What an underwhelming return. Ortiz hits the ball hard but can't hit the ball in the air. Hall has incredible stuff but really shaky command. I think Hall is a sure thing MLB RP, but Ortiz has plenty of question marks and he's already 25 years old.
  12. wiguy94
    I mean Ortiz and Hall is incredibly underwhelming so I really hope there is more to this trade.

    I'm hoping Baltimore's new owners wanted a flashy move and told the GM to do whatever it takes to make it happen

    OH MY GOODNESS PLEASE GIVE US A BIG HAUL!

    Patrick wasn't even a signing. We traded Toro for him.

    Topa and Wilson have the same amount of team control. Better numbers? They had practically the same ERA but Topa did it in much higher leverage with dramatically better peripherals. Topa - 2.61 ERA, 2.93 xERA, 3.15 FIP, 3.55 xFIP, 3.47 SIERA, 1.90 WPA Wilson - 2.58 ERA, 3.98 xERA, 4.13 FIP, 4.72 xFIP, 4.31 SIERA, 1.32 WPA Wilson had a marginally better ERA but look at the gap in those peripherals, so no Wilson was not better than Topa.
  17. wiguy94
    You're definitely underrating what Minnesota got. Topa is way better than Wilson. Houser is better and cheaper than Desclafani. Gonzalez is a top 100/fringe top 100 prospect. Bowen is a guy with good stuff and has some industry hype.
  18. wiguy94
    Have to win ROY to get the pick not top 3.
  19. wiguy94
    The unofficial retiring of Gantner's number might be the most unserious thing I've ever seen. Either retire his number or don't. He retired 30 freaking years ago. Enough with this madness.
  20. wiguy94
    Does that even make the Brewers better? I can easily see a world where Burnes and Black combine for more WAR than Polanco and Cease. Hard, hard pass, but I understand why the Cubs fan would want this trade to happen.
  21. wiguy94
    Silly Brewers. They should have forced Hoskins to sign a longer contract than he wanted. Pretty clear Hoskins wanted a pillow type contract and not a 3-4 year deal for less AAV.
  22. wiguy94
    I get you’re also a Twins fan but saying Nathan is the equivalent to Wagner is just flat out not close to reality. Wagner is one of the best RP ever. Wagner had a 54 ERA- and 63 FIP- for his career. Nathan had a 67 ERA- and 79 FIP- for his career. On a rate basis Wagner is the 2nd best RP in MLB history behind Rivera. Nathan isn’t even close to that class.
  23. wiguy94
    Bryce Harper moved to 1B and they already have Schwarber and Castellanos who are awful in the OF and will likely spend a lot of time at DH. So basically just nowhere for Hoskins to play unless you want Schwarber and Castellanos in the OF every day.
  24. wiguy94
    My understand is we could give him a QO. Would be fantastic to get a great year out of Hoskins and also a comp pick.

    HECK FREAKING YEAH!
