  1. No thanks on acquiring any pitching prospect from the LAD. Look at their injury history the last few years. Just about every starter prospect that touches their rotation needs TJ or flexor tendon surgery or both. It’s rather alarming.
  2. He should definitely be an option if they need him. His stuff should play anywhere.
  3. Forget Garcia. Yoho-Williams-Koenig & Misiorowski in September will be plenty of firepower for the pen. Brewers acquire Kikuchi for: Blalock or Manfredi & Areinamo. Brewers need a LH starter, Kikuchi has probably the most upside.
  4. College IF with power would work. In fact any college power bat works for me. I’d prefer OF power over IF, but the weakness, positionally, of this system is power, imo, so any power drafted really helps balance out the system positionally.
  5. I’m going with the less risky pick in Benge. They find potential TOR talent later in the draft (Burnes-Woodruff) and are able to develop them into #1 starters. Ashby was another on his way but for blowing out his shoulder. Benge has power potential that just needs tapped into, and I think he gets there, eventually, just like Yelich got there. This team needs power bats, especially OF power bats and at worst, Benge has plus RF defense as a floor and can hit, buying him time to get to that power.
  6. I’ll take the certainty of 2 years of Crochet in the rotation vs the upside and risk of 6+ years of Misiorowski. Personally I think Misiorowski is a future closer, so I want him moved. Crochet has had his TJ, Misiorowski hasn’t. Crochet can give MKE the best bullpen in baseball post-deadline that with Eovaldi starting can give this team a great opportunity to advance. He also buys time (2+ years) for the teams PDS to develop the next group of starters to replace Peralta-Woodruff and Crochet. By that time we can have Gasser back and strong, CRod established and Henderson developed.
  7. The Brewers have the prospect-depth to add a Garrett Crochet and stick him in the pen the rest of this year or most of the ROTY (innings limits) and start him in ‘25 & ‘26. Then add the rental Eovaldi as a game 1 starter Crochet-Williams-Megill-Hudson-Yoho-Koenig (post-deadline) makes this the best pen in baseball. Eovaldi is probably the most underrated postseason starter in the game and would give MKE a great chance to advance with a 1-2 of him and Peralta and a shutdown bullpen. Crochet to MKE for: Frelick or Mitchell or Black & Misiorowski & Lara or Boeve Eovaldi to MKE for: Manfredi or Blalock & Barrios or Areinamo & O’Rae or Guilarte MKE has the depth of talent to handle those trades and be just fine. They just need to protect their best teenage prospects, which happen to have the most upside in the system. Pratt-Bitonti-YRod-Made-Pena-Letson-Knoth > untouchable. Same with Henderson-Wilken. Crochet-Peralta-Woodruff-Myers-Henderson-CRod is a formidable rotation for ‘25 Then replace Woodruff in ‘26 with Gasser. Farm system has as good of teenage talent as there is in baseball which over the next 1-2 years will really make itself known. Add a nice return with a probable Devin Williams trade, 2 more drafts with extra draft-capital in each and continued excellence in Latin American classes and we have the makings of a truly monster farm and at the same time young and controlled big-league team.
  8. Mitchell isn’t going anywhere until he can show teams he can stay on the field.
  9. Yes, it really is incredible. Made now at a 1.040 OPS with a 14% K-rate & Pena with a 1.263 OPS and 9% K-rate. Looking forward to see what they can do stateside.
  10. Benge for me. Potential future power bat LHH RF, gotta go with him here if he’s available unless the team wants to save money on the first pick to stash for later like last year. This draft, impact is more important than depth so I’d like to see an impact bat taken at 17.
  11. Yeah, slot on the first pick would necessitate below slot on at least 2 of the next 3 picks if they want to have a similar type draft to 2023, which imo, was a spectacular draft-class. After last years draft I have so much trust in the team’s prospect-procurement systems (‘24 IFA class was incredible as well) I’m just expecting another great class next month, especially with the extra $2.7M, and 2025 with Adames’s comp and comp A as well. Powerhouse farm system ahead.
  12. College bat at 17. I like Carson Benge. Good hit & power tool. Should be slot, and in MKE’s OF sometime in 2026. Organizational needs: power bats & power arms and Benge fills the OF power bat need. The rest of the draft can follow last years path with below slot early/above slot late.
  13. Kikuchi & Eovaldi for me. Need a lefty and Kikuchi has the most upside. Eovaldi’s game rises once in the playoffs and would be a perfect game 1 starter. Tolerable returns. Eovaldi-Peralta-Kikuchi-Myers-Rea-Wilson or Ross as starter #6, with the other to the bullpen should get the team into the postseason with the first 3 the playoff starters giving the team an opportunity to advance. Not sure Texas would make Eovaldi available but with Max back and deGrom potentially ready post-deadline, maybe?
  14. Pena-Made & Anderson with OPS’s N of 1.000 and K-rates of 12-15%. And not just singles hitters either.
  15. Pratt to Wisconsin. It’s time.
  16. Agree we might have something special with our 2 lefty starters at Wisconsin. Both I believe, should be pitching for Biloxi before years end, and if that happens would give the team 3 starters and a reliever from the ‘23 draft-class already at AA. It’s early of course, but I’ve never seen a class perform this well in my 50+ years of following the Brewers farm and we’ve yet to see Birchard or Woodward pitch.
  17. Yeah, the team has enough starter arms now that they can develop over the coming years to have a mostly homegrown rotation again within the next 3-4 years, especially if we include Gasser-CRod-Myers. Love Henderson, but his innings buildup might take all of next season just to get to 120-130. So 2026 would be a more realistic timeframe for Henderson to rotation, imo.
  18. Total joke of a trade and infuriating article. Large-market media bias at its worst.
  19. I don’t get the desire for Crochet. His talent is thru the roof, but he’s going to have to get shutdown because of innings limits well before the postseason.
  20. He’s young, so hopefully he can gain velo moving-forward. Hard to get too excited over a pitcher with an upper 80’s/90mph FB.
  21. I said it the day they signed this group— my favorite IFA class ever. Size, power potential, defense, hit-tool, this class has everything. The ‘24 IFA class & the ‘23 draft-class have injected franchise-altering talent into this organization.
  22. Not giving up multiple years of a 3 WAR CF for a rental starter. If the team wants Kikuchi, they have a deep farm system from which to make a deal without giving up their starting CF.
  23. Been looking forward to his debut since I watched his dazzling performance in the WBC. I love players that when the spotlight is brightest they rise to the occasion, and CRod is that type of pitcher, imo.
  24. Adamczewski with a great ‘24 debut and Hayden Robinson’s last 2 outings: 8 innings 3H 1R 1BB 16K. The ‘24 draft-class just keeps getting better and better.
