    Why are they not going after guys like that? They had top 10 payrolls when they were last competitive. It makes way more sense for them to go after those guys than it does for them to trade Grayson Rodriguez and more prospects for 2 years of Corbin Burnes when they are at the beginning of their competitive window.

    I don’t see Baltimore doing this trade. They have plenty of salary space to sign one of the SP option in FA. They traded Mancini and Lopez this year despite being in the playoff race which to me means their FO is taking a longterm stance which means I don’t see them trading the best or second best (Eury Perez) SP prospect in baseball for 2 years of Corbin Burnes. That’s a very short term move for a team whose window is just opening.

    Woodruff being a year older counters him being marginally better than Castillo.

    How is Woodruff getting $10M more than Castillo despite having an extra Arb year compared to Castillo? That’s too much money.

    Your numbers for the Woodruff and Adames extensions seem pretty light. 4/52 for Adames puts his two FA years at like $15-16M which is seems way too light even if more FA years were bought out. 3/45 for Woodruff puts his one FA year at like $20M which seems light for only buying out one year of FA.

    Cartaya hasn't played a single AA game yet, so he's still a bit away from hitting the MLB.

    I mean if we are really feeling crazy we could send them Burnes and Adames for Miller, Busch, Vargas, Stone, and Pepiot. Never going to happen but if Brewers wanted to refresh that's a move they should consider.

    538 has us at 47% and Philly at 56%. They project both of us to end at 87-75.

    They could but he’s out of options after this season so there really isn’t much of a point in keeping him on the 40-man.

    Well his BABIP has been better because he's hitting far more line drives instead of fly balls. High FB hitters rarely carry high BABIP numbers. His LD rate in September is 31% compared to 12-18% for pretty much the entire rest of the year. His FB rate is also the lowest of the year. A lot of these issues were cause of his swing plane being more of an uppercut this year. Obviously there was some bad luck involved but he was never going to carry a high BABIP with his batted ball distribution in previous months.

    Yeah SD has the 7th most difficult schedule remaining (1 more at Coors then 3 against the Dodgers, Giants and White Sox). Philly is 20th (1 more against Atlanta then 4 against the Nats and 3 against the Cubs and Astros). We are 23rd (1 more against the Reds then 2 vs St. Louis, 4 vs Miami and 3 vs Arizona). A super hopeful 8-2 finish for the Brewers would still require either San Diego to close the year 5-5 or Philly close the year 6-5. It still doesn't look great for us.

    Yelich and Hiura both falling off after 2019 hurts a lot here. Those were the two guys who were supposed to be the big bats in the middle of our order. Unfortunately acquiring these big bats is easier said than done. They either take a large prospect haul, a lot of money or both. This is where the Brewers inability to develop bats post Lucroy has been an issue. Thankfully we seem to be righting the ship in this department, but it might be too late to capitalize on Burnes and Woodruff's team control which is why some have suggested a soft retool for 2024 by trading one of those two for some more prospects.
