    While a second opinion on a sore elbow many times leads to TJ, it hasn’t been announced yet what the exact injury is, so couldn’t you have waited for this post until we get official word on the injury?
  2. SF70
    The systems teenage positional talent on full display this spring. Following the team’s minor league system the next few years is going to be something special.

    Because every season is “precious”, I’m not seeing the team sell-off Peralta even this offseason since they will need his veteran experience to compete for the Central title again next season, after losing Woodruff-Civale-Cortez to FA. The team’s burgeoning powerhouse farm and universally praised prospect development system doesn’t need help at the expense of the current team, imo, and with their current prospect-pipeline can ride their best big-league talent all the way to FA for the pick and their performance. That’s the advantage of having a prospect-procurement system among the best in the game.

    3 BB in 6.2 IP with only 2 hits allowed and 9 K’s. 98-100mph, and made Ohtani-Betts-Freeman look silly. By the way he only walked 2.8/9 the entirety of last season and 3.2/9 in 2023. Command & control hasn’t been an issue. His velo has ticked up and has completely changed his future outlook.
  5. SF70
    I don’t think so. Worst team in baseball can stash a raw, inexperienced arm like Smith as long as he’s touching 100mph like he is currently.
  6. SF70
    I think there’s a good chance they keep Peralta all the way to FA. It will be difficult if not impossible to trade Peralta and get back what they would need to win during the 2026 season — a veteran #2ish starter. His cost ($8M) + value to the team, likely supercedes the prospect-return we’d receive by trade. The team’s farm system going into the ‘26 season should be chocked full of prospect talent coming off another likely superior draft-class (2025), so the future isn’t the issue that the present would be without Peralta for the ‘26 season.

    This is a better team than last year’s team. Better in every way. They seem to have a solid 3B and utility IF between Dunn-Durbin-Capra. Numerous sophomores & Juniors that as a whole should show improvement as they get closer to their prime years. Starting pitching is deeper and better, with a bullpen so deep they can’t even fit a 100mph arm like Uribe in it. All this and they might not win 93 games like they did last year because the division is vastly improved and with a NL a monstrous gauntlet.
  8. SF70
    While other teams waste incredible sums of money trying to put a bullpen together, this team scouts out an arm that looks like he can pitch multi-innings, with dynamic stuff, out of an already stacked pen and for no money. Amazing FO.
  9. SF70
    Capra’s not going anywhere after blasting 4 HR’s and making great plays on the left side of the IF. Monasterio’s days are numbered and I can’t wait. No offense to him but Capra is a better ballplayer.

    First Matt Klentak and now Billy Eppler. Klentak failed as a GM with Philadelphia, but hired here and sent to help with the international department 2 years ago. Look at that department today. Not saying it was because of him but he obviously helped improve that department. Looking forward to the same type of help to the system as a whole in some form from Mr Eppler.
  11. SF70
    Keep stacking FO talent. Eppler has a talented eye for talent. Was a big reason the Angels were able to recruit Ohtani to Anaheim.
  12. SF70
    The team should be playing Black at OF everyday in Nashville and hoping he excels so they either have nice upper minors OF depth or a nice trade-chip come deadline or next offseason.
  13. SF70
    Agree. The system has as much balance as I’ve ever seen it. They have a good thing going with international giving them future impactful position prospects and the draft giving them projectable higher ceiling HS arms. I think they continue to draft like they have the last 2 drafts, taking another couple of boatloads of arms to continue this balance of positionals/pitching. The Arnold-lead draft strategy has completely re-vamped the teams farm and has lead to a burgeoning powerhouse organization.

    Add ‘Prospects Live’ to the growing list of prospect sites praising the Brewers organization, more specifically their scouting, prospect-procurement, player development and farm system. With the team having the best teenage prospect talent in the game, adding more superior prospect classes to this team’s burgeoning powerhouse farm system has me thinking we could see this team with not only the best farm system in the game, but by a lot, and not just for a bit, but for an extended period of time. Incredibly excited July’s 5 top 68 pick, $17M+ draft, and looking forward to the team continuing to add draft-picks that give the team the ability to stack great draft-classes. Hoping for great season’s from Woodruff-Cortes-Hoskins with the team wanting to QO and making the ‘26 draft special with extra capital as well.
  15. SF70
    Monasterio’s defense was really bad last season and his combination of poor defense & poor offense makes him unrosterable, imo.
  16. SF70
    I could care less about what Attanasio says. He’s already done great by me with his hires, and investments in infrastructure. His spending is in line with other comparable revenue teams and he listens to what the FO wants to do and doesn’t interfere. I actually agreed with most of what you posted prior to the last couple of days, oh well. Attanasio has already done what he needed to do for this team to eventually win a WS by hiring Stearns and retaining Arnold. Attanasio’s words yesterday mean nothing regarding the future of this team. The team’s exciting young core is still there. The powerhouse infrastructure, still there. The best young farm in the game, still there. Nothing is going to stop this team from their true destiny — winning a a WS or 2, along with an extended period of time as baseball’s only small-market dynasty.
  17. SF70
    We have a good owner. He’s smart enough to hire the best people to run his team and then listen to those people, which is THE most important attribute for a small-market owner. We have the best SM FO in baseball thanks to him. We could have an owner like the Pirates owner that hired Ben Cherrington over Matt Arnold (who interviewed for the Pirates GM job). Look how that has gone. Thank the baseball gods for that error in judgment. Our owner is not an outlier spender as compared to other similar revenue teams. That also matters. He listened to Stearns when he said the team needed a massive infrastructure upgrade. Look at what we have now, 9 years later. A revamped Maryvale complex with a state of the art pitching lab that has helped the team directly with improving their pitching development. 3 of the best prospect-procurement departments in the game. International-Domestic & UDFA. Hitting development that has recently gotten rave reviews from prospect-sites like BA. And earlier upgrades in analytics & professional scouting. To bash our owner because one cannot see the forest for the trees is shortsighted and just wrong.
  18. SF70
    Can’t wait to see Meccage-Dubanewicz-Renz & Smith from the ‘24 class make their pro debuts and then of course Broughton in 2026 a full 21 months post TJ. The lower minors pitching is really going to be something special to watch next year.
  19. SF70
    I hardly have words for this endeavor of yours. The depth of the dive you’ve made here is extraordinary. Incredibly well done. Absolutely agree with your conclusion of our system having the best teenage talent in the game thanks to our extraordinary depth and also agree with the Dodgers and Guardians, 2-3. The Brewers & Guardians are mirror images of themselves in many ways. Prospect-procurement-Bullpen building-Defensive philosophy-Team speed-baserunning. Definitely 2 of the best small-market FO’s in the game. Cant wait for all this young talent to develop and for the team to continue stacking superior young talent with their future classes.
  20. SF70
    Definitely worth the wait!
  21. SF70
    Speaking of your teen prospect series, when are you releasing part 3?
  22. SF70
    D. Bizarre offseason imo. Something is going on financially with this club for the OD payroll to be this low. Don’t understand why they couldn’t spend $5-6M and add a veteran 3B to raise the IF floor and allow them to finally jettison Monestario from the big-league roster. Agree with wiguy that this team is unbearably thin in IF depth.
  23. SF70
    And another reason this team’s domestic draft department is firing on all cylinders. From a 2023 draft-class most saw as superior right after the last signing to a 2024 draft-class panned by most that now is looking like one of the most underrated classes with Payne’s explosion, Dinges’s potential to catch with his hitting ability and a stable of pitching set to make their debut professionally after being worked with by the team’s PDS the last 6 months.
  24. SF70
    Not sure, but he said it’s a 6 month recovery time so I’d imagine he’d be playing games again April/May.
  25. SF70
    Boeve had labrum surgery in October and he likely will need more time before he’s 100%.
