    Pretty underwhelming deadline from the Brewers. Miller is a solid add especially for what appears to be little cost but trading for a pitcher who has dealt with forearm issues is just playing with fire. The Cortes trade was bizarre. Not that the Brewers traded him but that the Brewers traded him and a pretty interesting 18 year old for what appears to be a pinch runner. Coming out of the deadline where you're one injury away from a Seigler/Monasterio platoon starting in the infield is not good. Brewers depth 2B/3B/SS depth is extremely weak. Brewers have a real chance to finish with a Top 2 seed and a bye this year and not improving the roster is pretty underwhelming.

    D. Miller is a solid add though trading for a pitcher dealing with forearm issues isn't very safe. Jansen was a fine upgrade at backup C. Trading Cortes and Quintana for Lockridge is bizarre. Maybe Brewers see something in Lockridge but I don't. Ultimately they get a D for not doing anything to improve the infield depth behind Ortiz (Brewers are one injury away from a Seigler/Monasterio platoon in the infield) and for not getting a LHH to add some pop on the bench. Yes I know Bauers will eventually be back but he's not good.

    They must really like Lockridge then as it's basically just a Quintana for Lockridge trade

    Kim is not subject to the 6 years of service time to be a FA because he came over as a pro not a prospect. He was a FA last offseason and signed with Tampa

    Rodriguez just has not looked healthy since he came off the IL. Velo way down and 20 grade command.

    Small was a highly ranked prospect for the Brewers when the Brewers had a very weak farm system. That's not the same as being a highly ranked prospect when the Brewers have a strong farm system like they currently do. Ethan Small was certainly never pushing to be a Top 100 prospect like Henderson currently is.

    Might go down as the best first post in this site's history! What a find!

    This doesn't make much sense for the Brewers. Taking Collins out of the lineup does not make the Brewers better. Kwan's defense would also take a dip in Milwaukee because so much of his defensive value comes from how well he plays the big LF wall in Cleveland to use his arm as a weapon.

    Are you sure you have to stay in AAA all year? I thought you just had to be on the AAA roster in the offseason

    Yoho had completely lost his release point. He threw a combined 1 pitch in the strike zone to Busch and Tucker with most of the pitches missing up and arm side because his arm was late.
  11. wiguy94
    I've soured a lot on Yoho this year though not necessarily because of how poor he has pitched in the big leagues. Devin Williams blowing the series last year really has made me quite velo-pilled when it comes to leverage relievers. I just think Yoho ultimately ends up as a Milner/Anderson style middle reliever who relies on being very unique rather than with sheer overpowering stuff.

    This good absolutely not but I did think he could be a solid bench bat

    Knew it wouldn't be long for one of the human ump defenders to defend that terrible call. It was a clear strike.
  14. wiguy94
    I still can't believe there are Brewers fans in here who defend human ball/strike umping. That inning was dramatically changed because of 2 huge misses that went against the Brewers

    And Tristan Peters is 25 years old repeating AAA still yet to make his MLB debut. This level of prospect has a pretty low likelihood of panning out.
  16. wiguy94
    Eric Haase DFA would be my guess
  17. wiguy94
    I’m good with this even if Areinamo wasn’t pretty much completely blocked by better prospects the level below and above him, I just don’t buy that his swing is going to work at the MLB level.

    Both Parker and Coil were college juniors not seniors

    I mean that's clearly the strategy but if the players turn down the money what can you do? It's a risky strategy and you probably can't expect it to work out as perfectly as it did in 2023 every single year.
  20. wiguy94
    A bit dramatic don't you think? Brewers spent down to basically the last dollar in 2023. It probably just ended up that nobody bit on the rest of the pool.
  21. wiguy94
    That might be it. Brewers didn't go into the 5% overage last year.

    These leagues need to wake the heck up and stop thinking about the short term monetary gain and think about big the consequences of this scale of sports gambling is going to be.
  23. wiguy94
    Though my hopes for Cadiz have gotten pretty slim as he's still playing in the WCL as of last night. He's crushing that league. Basically a Top 10 hitter in the entire league.
  24. wiguy94
    Chalk it up to might be a big reach but Braylon Payne is now following Ma'Kale Holden on instagram. That was definitely not the case until today.
  25. wiguy94
    I feel like that's really overstated. Here's our trade history with Tampa since Stearns was hired Gregory Barrios for Aaron Civale Alex Jackson for Evan McKendry Victor Castaneda for Javy Guerra Evan Reifert for Mike Brosseau JP Feyereisen and Drew Rasmussen for Willy Adames and Trevor Richards Jesus Aguilar for Jake Faria Ji-Man Choi for Brad Miller Cash for Jhan Marinez
