  1. Not expecting the team to be able to sign Ross. He won’t rotation with this team and I’m guessing he wants to start.
  2. Take the best deal you can get because it’s time to move on. Megill can close, and they have so much fire power coming back it’s almost comical. Megill-Payamps (trade?)-Koenig-Mears-Uribe-Milner (trade?)-Peguero (trade?)-Bukauskas-Yoho-Wilson (trade?)-Rea (trade?)-Ashby (rotation?)-Hall (rotation?)-Z-Misiorowski (late season). Besides we need the money savings for next year‘s payroll to put together the best team possible under our budget conditions.
  3. Stagnating to you, because you choose to not look under the hood organizationally or for some reason ignore their youth and years of control. Murphy knew the team had it won and one (1) player choked the season away. 1 player.
  4. We won 93 games with the second-youngest team in baseball. This young core is only going to get better as they develop and mature. ‘Down on the farm’ ranked our ‘23 draft-class the best in all of baseball. BA said we have one of the best IFA departments in the game with a best in baseball ‘24 IFA class. Those 2 classes have added the best 17-20 years old talent in the game to our system. Next year we have five (5) top picks and $16M+ in pool money for the draft that will add more impact talent to our system. This FO is getting results on the field and also just as important, behind the scenes gathering talent for the system.
  5. It’s deeper than what we’ve had the last 3 years. If Ashby-Hall can take the next step it’s as good a rotation as we’ve had since ‘21.
  6. No progress? We now have a large, young, dynamic and controlled core which we didn’t have 5 years ago. We also have a mature infrastructure which we didn’t have 5 years ago. Top all that off with the best teenage positional talent of any farm system and I’d say that’s a ton of progress.
  7. Isn’t close? It is if one expects Woodruff to start-off the season a solid mid-rotation arm that becomes a #1 by the postseason. And Myers continues his #2/3 starter performance. And Ashby’s command improves ever so slightly. Which makes Civale & Hall a pretty darn good 5th/6th starter combo.
  8. Rea to the pen as a bulk and depth starter arm. 5th & 6th starters should be Hall-Ashby until proven otherwise.
  9. The ‘25 team will be our best team since 1982. Trade Williams for prospects. Starters— $26M Woodruff (5M)—Peralta (8)—Myers (750K) Civale (8)—Ashby (3)—Hall (750K) Bullpen— $15M Megill (2)—Uribe (750K)—Payamps (3)—Koenig (750K)—Mears (1)—Hudson (750K) Yoho (750K)—Rea (5.5) Positional—$67M Contreras (7)—Haase (2) Hoskins (18)—Martinez (750K)—Turang (750K)—Ortiz (750K)—Moncada (8)—DeJong (4) Yelich (24)—Chourio (4)—Mitchell (750K)—Frelick (750K)—Perkins (750K Total payroll—$108M The young core will come into their own lead by a healthy Yelich with the best pitching staff since 2021.
  10. I think they will roster Henderson-Patrick & Martinez. I think all 3 are locks. Henderson goes without saying. Patrick proved he can pitch and the team will want him as a depth shuttle spot starter. Martinez can replace Bauers on the 40-man and potentially give the team their LH option at 1B next season and beyond. The EV/K-rate forces the decision to roster him.
  11. Yes we can accept losses like last night since they lost because of 1 player, Devin Williams. They also gained valuable experience in 2 pressure-packed games which will make them better in postseasons moving-forward, of which there will be many.
  12. The choke was committed by 1 player, Devin Williams, who likely won’t even be here next season.
  13. Tough loss, but Chourio-Mitchell-Frelick-Myers excelling under playoff pressure will only help their confidence moving-forward.
  14. Just take the best deal for Williams and move on. The money savings in what will be a potential title year is a bigger deal than $8M in surplus TV. Trade Williams-Milner-Payamps-Peguero-Rea, trade or DFA Wilson and use the money savings to add a $5-10M FA starter and $7-15M 3B.
  15. With the team needing to re-negotiate the ‘25 local TV deal and getting less money, unless the Brewers advance to the NLCS, they will probably not add much if any payroll next season, so signing a pricy FA likely isn’t happening. Thank goodness they have a nice young core returning with only one glaring weakness, 3B, and a brilliant, creative FO that should be able to, at worst, at least make it competent.
  16. We have a decade of winning ahead of us with most of those seasons having a better team than the current one, so hang in there and eventually we will be rewarded with a title, maybe even 2. We have the smartest FO in the game, which matters far more than payroll.
  17. Not expecting a breakout from Mitchell this postseason but sure looking forward to an offseason of more adjustments and hopefully a healthy 5+ WAR 2025 season.
  18. Last year’s class had Quintana at #12 & Made at #22 (MLB pipeline) with both of Luis Pena and Jose Anderson outside their top 50.. All 3 performed better than Quintana.
  19. Yeah, I’m personally content with everything about this team’s international department. If this isn’t the best international prospect-procurement system in baseball, it’s among the best. Focusing on impactful positional talent in this realm gives the team the potential to extend the very best because of their young ages entering the bigs. This is how the team will build a long-lasting dynasty by surrounding Chourio with impactful talent for 6-10 years, most of it prime-age performance.
  20. Garrett Mitchell can be a star. He needs to play everyday from here on out. Thanks.
  21. They’re the second youngest team in baseball playing this season on house money. It’s pretty easy to see this being their worst team of the next half-decade.
  22. The team should be even better next season. Further maturation from Mitchell-Ortiz-Turang-Frelick-Perkins-Contreras and especially Chourio, combined with a healthy Woodruff, full seasons from Ashby-Civale, Hoskins another year removed from his knee injury, and a full-offseason to fix their only major weakness, 3B, should lead to one of the best teams in baseball.
  23. The golden age of Brewers fandom is in full swing and not going anywhere but up. Their IFA department has already produced 1 top prospect in baseball and looks like they found another in Jesus Made. I wouldn’t put it past them to find another potential star that can play with Chourio-Made, maybe they already have and it’s Jeferson Quero. The second-youngest team in baseball as it matures will become a force in this game and not just for a little bit either. Add another potentially franchise-altering draft-class in ‘25 to the one they had in ‘23, and the best IFA class in baseball (‘24) and this organization’s farm system should be tops in baseball in short order and sustain the dynasty thru the rest of this decade, possibly longer.
  24. Sign Moncada to a pillow contract or offer up prospects to Arizona for 1 year of Suarez. Both are good defensive 3B, which would probably be a requisite with MKE. I’d probably go the Moncada route. Taking a pillow deal will probably motivate him to get in the BSOHL, and he’s due to have a healthy season after these last couple of years. MKE with a competent 3B will be a serious title contender in 2025.
  25. Feel pretty good about having Made-Pena in my top 5 back when the last prospect rankings were done. Some scouts think Pena is right there with Made as far as a talent is concerned. Impactful talent that can play with Chourio forthcoming.
