    Matt Arnold should be extended. IMO, he’s the best GM this team has ever had and the best small-market GM in the game. He’s mproved the prospect-procurement abilities of the team since Stearns left. 4 incredible prospect classes in a row that has set the team up to be a NL powerhouse later this decade. He’s made a good hire with Murphy, along with many more good trades than bad. Just look at the Contreras-Payamps heist. But for me it’s all about the vision. His vision of finishing-off what could be the best SM infrastructure in baseball and going full bore with prospect-procurement. The strategy of building the best young farm system in baseball with upside positionals and HS/JC projectable pitching. What we have now is the best young farm in the game and by a lot. We are fortunate to have him.

    Mid-ninties at 18 likely portends higher velo moving forward and one of the most exciting IFA pitching talents we’ve had in a while. Looking forward to seeing the pitching signed in the ‘25 class. Read we might have another big arm or two that we can follow when the DSL starts next month.
  3. SF70
    Yeah, I think Hardin is a man pitching to boys at A+. Probably should get bumped up to face better hitting.

    Great day for those following this team’s system, only to be topped next month when the DSL season begins and we get to follow all 7 of our minor-league teams. Excited to see Boeve & Hall begin their rehabs. Excited to see the rest of the best of last years DSL class make their stateside debuts along with the HS projectables from the ‘24 draft-class.

Lots of future top 100 prospects. Top 5 should all be top 60 when the next rankings come out. Top 3-5 system now. Best young farm in the game. I have Woodward as a top 4 pitcher even though he’s down with TJ due to his stuff, when healthy, is probably the best in the system besides Misiorowski.
  6. SF70
    Probably should be at Wisconsin soon. He can take Adamczewski with him.

    Tucker, improved offense from their catching, and an apparent breakout offensively from PCA has made their offense a powerhouse in the early going. Can they keep scoring 5.5 runs per game? Probably not, but even with a slight dip they should still score enough for them to win 90+ games.
  8. SF70
    Can you add Jason Woodward please.

    Yeah I think the edge they have over the rest of baseball scouting Latin America has made itself known with these last 2 classes. To be able to get 2 of the best 3 talents in Latin America signed in the same class is amazing in itself, but the rest of the ‘24 class is no slouch either. Can’t wait to see what Anderson-Quintana & co do when they make their stateside debuts next week. Then in June we have, at least according to pipeline, another top 5 class to look forward to following. How long can they keep this scouting group together?
  10. SF70
    The organizational pitching is fast catching up to the positional talent. At least that’s how I’m seeing it. We still have projectable HS arm talent yet to make their pro debuts to look forward to.

    The Brewers FO is attempting to do something no small-market FO has done before — win/contend EVERY year without a rebuild/reset/selloff. They’ve also done this while simultaneously re-building their infrastructure. Thanks to that world-class infrastructure, we are now in the early stages of the golden era of Brewers fandom. Looking at the incredible teenage talent acquired from their last 4 prospect-procurement classes in combination with their playoff-worthy, 3-5 years controlled big-league core is it any wonder Arem & Jack of ‘Just Prospects’ named MKE with the 3rd best 5-year future in all of baseball. All of this thanks to our FO.

    Mendez has hit a grand total of 12 HR’s in almost 1,100 minor-league AB’s with an ISO under 1.00, so almost zero impact. And yes Bob Moore is off to a nice 23 AB start in his repeat AA season, after his below .700 OPS season last year.

    This team’s system is so stacked with both pitching & positional talent I don’t think it matters which way the team decides to go. The last 4 classes — 2 drafts / 2 IFA has given the team the best young farm in the game. Then the fact the BL team is controlled for the next 3-5 years gives the team’s farm time to mature before it starts spitting out impact talent @2027. I do take issue with the description of the farm not having #1-2 potential starters (besides possibly MIs) in the system currently. I think they’ve added enough projectables in the last 2 drafts that this team’s PDS can absolutely develop TOR starter potentials. Another draft of positionals early with HS projectables late wouldn’t bother me in the slightest.
  14. SF70
    Every team in baseball makes these kinds of mistakes. Arnold is the best small-market GM in the game and as such deserves a long-term extension.
  15. SF70
    The Chisox have created a monster with Smith. They are the ones that have taught him the kick change. They are the ones that have unleashed more velo and sharper BB’s. what we are witnessing today with Smith is because of the White Sox’s PDS.
  16. SF70
    I’d put Payne-Pena in a 55 tier with Misiorowski. Made as the only 60.
  17. SF70
    The improvement he showed after working with Boston’s fantastic PDS combined with the ability of my team to identify pitchers they can improve gives me confidence we are getting a solid starter for our rotation for half a decade.
  18. SF70
    Your take assumes Priester at best becomes a serviceable backend starter. What if he ends up closer to a mid-rotation arm? 5-6 years of that is definitely worth what we gave up isn’t it?
  19. SF70
    The team has added 24 pitchers in the last 2 draft-classes, many of them teenage, so the system has lots of arms for the PDS to work with regardless of arms drafted in ‘25.
  20. SF70
    Yeah the pick & $3M is a bigger loss than YRod with the way this team has been manipulating the draft lately. After reading FG & BA articles on Priesters recent velo increase this spring after being worked with by Boston’s fantastic PDS since they acquired him last summer I feel pretty strongly in my team’s PDS being able to identify an up arrow SP prospect so I’m good with this trade. We have tons of teenage & 20 year old SP prospects that should hit MKE sometime after the 2026 season, and 3-4 upper-minors starters that could reach MKE starting next season, but outside of Patrick, no one that doesn’t still need work in the minors this year so the trade gets us help when we need pitching help the most — this season.
  21. SF70
    Yeah yet another Brewers teenage prospect to keep an eye on moving-forward. Really looking forward to seeing the pitching drafted last year make their debuts in the ACL and at Carolina. Travis Smith is up next I believe.

    Brewerfan is right — we should be honoring Selig, not disparaging him. Just the determination it took for him to bring baseball back to MKE and the state of Wisconsin makes him a Wisconsin icon. Then to spearhead the building of Miller Park, saving the team from relocation makes him, imo, the most important sportsman in the history of Wisconsin. Then if that wasn’t enough, he gave up his team in an attempt to save all small-market teams with new stadiums and revenue-sharing. To convince the Steinbrenner’s of the baseball world to give up profit for the good of the game was an immense accomplishment. Was Selig perfect, no, far from it. Collusion was a terrible mistake, as was turning over the team to his daughter, but what he did as owner and founder of this franchise, and as commissioner of baseball in saving the SM franchise far outweighs the bad.

    Listened to MLB radio with Cortes vs the Yanks and heard Tim Kurkjian say he talked to Nestor during ST and Nestor told him he was having an issue with his elbow again this spring. Hadn’t heard that info before from any of our beat reporters and now after reading your article the possible elbow pain could very well be the issue here.
  24. SF70
    The organization unquestionably made a mistake not protecting Smith. Many of us here knew that the day he was left unprotected. Most of the rest of us knew that when word leaked out that the Chisox were going to take Smith first overall in the R5 draft. Every organization makes these types of mistakes so we are not alone. Baseball life will go on. Happy for Smith getting his opportunity.
  25. SF70
    Team lost but Mis strike-throwing impressive. Maybe he can rotation after all. I’m sure the team is going to give him ample opportunity.
