  1. Big sigh of relief. Makes sense to IL him so they can get Lopez back on the active roster. Hopefully he only misses a week and is firing on all cylinders once he returns.
  2. 3 multi-inning guys is total overkill. We are fine with Bryse Wilson and Rea/Houser once Miley/Woodruff are back in the rotation.
  3. Re-stock the farm? Our farm is the best it has been in ages.
  4. Trading Peguero to bring Suter back. Equally gross.
  5. I wouldn't be surprised if he bulks up this offseason and makes the opening day roster. Chourio is about the best chance we have of getting the 1st round pick for having the ROTY
  6. Yeah Chourio kind of is giving off Ryan Braun vibes right now. If he could even remotely come close to Braun's bat with his CF defense, you are talking a superstar.
  7. What you’re ignoring about Gasser’s FB is that despite the average-ish IVB, it has an elite VAA at -4.1 degrees. Also his slider/cutter/curveball statcast info is a mess because they are constantly messing up the pitch classifications with him.
  8. Plenty of potential scenarios. Justin Wilson coming off 60-day IL, Hiura, Black, trade acquisition are all potential options. I would guess Wilson is most likely scenario
  9. Well that’s interesting
  10. None of those moves happened under the Brewers current FO model. What they did when Melvin was the GM is pretty much irrelevant.
  11. Yupp. We aren’t Trueblood’s Cubs who can go out and spend $15+M a year on mid-tier FA SP. Brewers are not going to trade their 2 closest to the MLB rotation SP prospects for RP.
  12. Have you just not been paying attention? He’s dramatically improved everything you say he needs to improve. His K-rate over his last 200 PA is 16%
  13. This timeline is so incredibly off for Chourio. He’s going to be in the MLB far sooner than mid-season 2025
  14. The Braves farm system is super weak so don’t read too much into those prospect rankings. Vodnik is a 23 year old RP in AA with a 3.10 ERA and 3.56 FIP. Gordon is a 25 year old SP in AAA with a 5.86 ERA and 4.25 FIP across AA and AAA this year. I’m not sure either of these prospects would be ranked in the Brewers system. Maybe Vodnik would be in the 20’s like Cam Robinson was to start the season
  15. You’re suggesting trading a top 100 SP prospect by Baseball America for a RP who has had mixed results in his MLB career and a good season this year. You’re comparing it to a trade where the Yankees got a RP with an extra year of service time and gave up a weaker prospect at the time. Then you suggest the Brewers should give up a 21 year old who has been one of the best SP in AA this season for a 2 month rental RP. These hypotheticals to me just show a significant misunderstanding of the Brewers roster and minor league system. Burnes, Woodruff, Lauer, Houser, and Miley are all set to be FA in the next 18 months and the Brewers are relatively thin on SP prospects in the upper levels of the minors. Suggesting the Brewers trade their 2 closest to the MLB SP prospects for RP is just a huge red flag not understanding the entire picture of the Brewers system. Meanwhile their top 6 bullpen arms are all Pre-Arb or Arb-1 this season meaning they are still affordable for at least another season.
  16. RP is probably the least pressing Brewers need at the moment. They have 6 very solid bullpen arms with Justin Wilson set to come off the IL shortly and Ashby potentially in the mix at some point in August as well. I’m absolutely not trading Robert Gasser or Carlos Rodriguez for RP as well lol.
  17. Brewers don’t need game changing to have a dramatic impact on the team. Brewers 1B have a 66 wRC+ which is worst in the MLB. Brewers DH have a 69 wRC+ which is also worst in the MLB. Brewers are also 22nd in HR. Upgrading to a league average bat with some pop at those 2 positions would be a dramatic improvement and could easily be a game changer for an offense as bad as ours.
  18. Maybe they don’t need to trade for an OF anymore if Frelick can come in and be a league average hitter from the start. They still need to trade for a 1B and DH though. Preferably the 1B is RHH and can hit LHP. C: Contreras 1B: Trade acquisition 2B: Turang (regardless of how people feel about his bat, seems like Brewers are intent on keeping him in the lineup) 3B: Anderson SS: Adames LF: Yelich CF: Wiemer RF: Frelick DH: Trade acquisition Bench: Caratini, Monasterio, Miller, Perkins Basically they need to trade for 2 bats that could hit 3rd and 4th in our order to slide the Adames/Miller 3/4 duo down in the order.
  19. Why would the Brewers trade a super high ceiling teenage prospect to clear a space for a super low ceiling 22 year old prospect?
  20. Law has never been a big believer in Misiorowski. He thinks he's going to be a RP and that he only has 2 pitches. He's definitely the industry low on Misiorowski but also is the industry high on Quero and Black. Law in general seems to like players with a strong floor even if the ceiling isn't that high over some of the more volatile guys with crazy high ceilings.
  21. If that's the route you are looking for then Jonathan Aranda could be an answer but not sure what you would need to give the Rays to get him though as they likely want MLB pitching in the deal
  22. .322 xwOBA in July with a 43% K-rate in July. Just absolutely not buying it. Just call up Keston Hiura if you want someone with that volatile of outcomes with a crazy high K-rate.
