  1. The net present value on Williams deals is 3/$45M. That's a heck of a lot more than 2/$22M Ashby as a RP in his career - 2.49 ERA, 2.41 FIP, 2.63 xFIP, 1.12 WHIP, 22.8% K-BB Devin Williams 3 seasons before entering FA - 2.91 ERA, 2.58 FIP, 2.81 xFIP, 1.02 WHIP, 26.1% K-BB Think maybe you weren't aware how good Ashby has been as a RP in his career. It's right up there with the best relievers in the sport.
  2. Ashby if he continues pitching how he has in his career as a RP will have plenty of trade value in those team option years where the Brewers can just trade him. He's been an elite LHP out of the bullpen in his career. $22M over 2 years with club options on both to protect in case of injury is probably a pretty valuable asset around the league if he keeps it up.
  3. I imagine Quero gets optioned because they don’t want him sitting on the bench a lot and Matos is our short term DH against LHP while Chourio and Vaughn are injured and if he performs could stay on the roster even when Chourio returns.
  4. He would still hit FA at 31 even with the two club options. Maybe things change between now and then but good SS still get paid at 31 years old though maybe a decade from now teams will wise up to giving players over 30 long term deals.
  5. I’m genuinely in disbelief at this because there are so many question marks with his bat still but if he has slow developing power like Turang did, then this contract will be a steal. We all would kill for Turang to be on this sort of extension right now.
  6. Who remembers what happened the last time the Brewers played the Rays in Milwaukee?
  7. Looks like an All-Star jersey with Wisco on the front. Doesn’t seem very city connect but they cant all be good. Hopefully they don’t try to force orange into the color scheme like the Bucks have tried to do with the color blue.
  8. I hope Contreras just thought they didn’t have any challenges left. If not then that was a pretty bad miss from him not challenging a 1-2 ball call in the 9th inning up 2 runs. You try to preserve your challenges literally for that exact moment.
  9. Kind of funny that with all the prospect love for the Nashville lineup that it's been the bottom of the order more AAAA depth guys that have been the best hitters through 1+ game.
  10. I wouldn't pay much attention to the pitchers. They bounce around a lot.
  11. Obviously have to take ST results with a grain of salt, but if you believe Bauers hot streak at the end of the season is a sign of things to come for him, this has been a very, very good start to ST. He's hammering the ball while not whiffing and not striking out.
  12. Megill as the closer just makes the most sense. Does anyone think Megill could handle the workload Uribe had last year? Megill has been exclusively used as a RP since he was drafted in 2015. The most innings he's thrown in a season in that time is 60.2 back in 2019. Uribe threw 75.1 innings last year despite being suspended the first 4 games of the year.
  13. Koenig only threw 6 pitches but his velo looked much better today than it has all spring
  14. Quero had 2 errors in the 4th inning but the radio broadcast made it sound like the first error should have been on Leonard and Quero had a strong throw and the 2nd throw wasn't great but Wilken made a poor play on the ball.
  15. Yes now we can say for certain that Priester had a setback. That was not the case when that comment was made and Woodruff (who that comment was mostly about) has not had any setback so yes the comment was still dramatic.
  16. Sproat getting hit really hard today
  17. Yeah no longer concerned about his velo. Koenig is the real yellow flag guy now and it sounds like that might be a red flag based on Murphy's comments about him losing weight in the offseason (guessing he was sick)
  18. Priester stopped pitching for like 3-4 days. I'd hardly call that a setback. Woodruff hasn't had any setbacks. He's just being eased in very slowly. Both of these guys are being intentionally built up slowly. That's the process. They aren't being delayed or having their processes prevented.
  19. Setback is extremely dramatic. Murphy said Woodruff is still on pace to be in the opening day rotation. Priester is slightly behind him because they want to build Priester up slowly after a career high in innings last year.
  20. Thanks. It could just be trying to get Ortiz and Turang more reps before they head off to the WBC. Then Williams will get more game reps in.
  21. @Matthew Trueblood is Williams dealing with a small injury or something? Hasn't played since the 23rd.
  22. Uribe's stuff being down so significantly in his first two outings this spring definitely is worthy of a yellow caution flag. Too early in ST to rule it a red flag but definitely something I'm going to be keeping an eye on over the next month.
  23. I'm not going to dispute Bohm being better than Rengifo because I think you're right about that but I think it's a bit misleading to post the baseball savant page of Bohm's career year as if that's the expected outcome from Bohm. Here's Bohm in 2023 and 2025. This is a better example of what Bohm is as a player.
