    In ‘22, Ashby’s ave FB velo was 95.9 on the 4-seam and 95.8 on his sinker, so he’s 3 ticks off, currently.
  2. SF70
    From MKE’s point of view, they likely look at Adames’s ‘24 WAR near 4, less $12M in salary, plus the pick value near $10M, so they probably need near $30M in prospect value returned, imo, far more than Andrew Friedman would pay, which is why Mookie Betts is at SS for the LAD.
  3. SF70
    Not seeing Misiorowski rotationing this year at all. He’s quite a ways away imo. Command, stamina & innings. Even if his command improves enough for him to get through 6 innings, he has to show he can hold his velo deeper into starts. Then the innings buildup needs to happen. This season—110-120, next season 140-150. Bullpen, yes. Maybe as early as this September.

    I for one will be disappointed if Monasterio gets 400 AB’s. That likely means some poor play by Ortiz, Turang or heaven forbid, both. I like Monestario in a utility role, not as a starter.
  5. SF70
    Lara-YRod-O’Rae and that’s it, for me. Once Chourio graduates, the farm doesn’t have the depth of OF they’ve had the last few years. Fortunately, they have a large group at the big-league level plus Black who they could move to the OF. This gives the team a couple of drafts and possible trade returns to get that depth depth back to levels accustomed to.

    This is one of the few teams in baseball that can absorb a half-season loss of one of the best closers in baseball due to the depth of relievers. Disagree they need to find a closer. Bullpen by committee, work the matchups, reduce the back to backs.
  7. SF70
    Absolutely, Rosiak is wrong having Megill in the minors to start the year. Even if Williams makes the OD roster, Megill should make the roster as well.
  8. SF70
    An overpay by Andrew “Mr prospect hugger, I need to “win” every trade I make” Friedman isn’t happening.
  9. SF70
    I sure hope they don’t wait until the end of May. 15 days in and a call-up at worst. The guy has the arsenal to be a true 6 inning starter of we which are in short supply.
  10. SF70
    Reports of his velo ticking up to 96/97 as a reliever last year at AAA for the Giants tells me that should be his role for MKE IF they keep him. In his last ST outing, his velocity dropped precipitously after 20-25 pitches and I just can’t imagine the team making him a starter over a Robert Gasser or even a Bryse Wilson.
  11. SF70
    Glad we have him, but I’m hoping to see him pitching 3-4 inning stints out of the pen, not starting games for the team, unless it’s a planned tandem or bullpen game. Not seeing a 2-pitch pitcher having success past 3 maybe 4 innings.
  12. SF70
    Serious Injury or total collapse is all that will keep Adames from a $150M+ contract. No way he accepts the QO this team gives him this offseason.
  13. SF70
    Tremendous analysis. Between you, Spencer, Jack and Arem, I’m convinced, with good health, Hall is a future frontline starter and potential ace for this team. 3 plus pitches with 2 more potentially on the way, along with fast improving command makes the Burnes trade a potential steal.
  14. SF70
    So his FB up a tick over his sim game — progress. I actually liked what I saw from Ashby yesterday. His breaking-stuff looked really good, and while his command wasn’t good, for most of his outing he was around the plate. I think with more work his velocity will continue to tick up, and I’m hopeful at some point this season he’ll get all the way back. And a 96-98mph Ashby with his secondaries is a nasty pitcher.
  15. SF70
    Prior to yesterday’s outing, Ashby was sitting 92-94, so a solid 4mph to get all the way back.
  16. SF70
    No extensions to pitchers unless it’s a big-time team friendly deal like Peralta’s and Ashby’s deals are. This team pumps out quality relievers like the reliever factory they are. This team is set up perfectly over the next half-decade with their farm system that they don’t need to extend anyone unless it’s the right deal and for the right player. Top positional prospect talent only.
  17. SF70
    This bullpen come September with Misiorowski & Hall in it, joining Megill-Uribe & Williams, will be as unhittable as any backend bullpen group, maybe in baseball history? How many 70 and 80 grade pitches does that group own?
  18. SF70
    Sure, I get the “odds” don’t favor stardom for any “prospect”, but sometimes the team just knows and Arnold has been praising Quero’s game since his signing back in 2019. My guess is the team is higher on Quero than the industry.
  19. SF70
    His trajectory is top 10-20 prospect in the game. Odds are with stardom vs not.
  20. SF70
    Going the Burnes route with Quero gets him to FA in his age 28 season. No thanks. I want his age 28 & 29 seasons to be here in MKE. Possibly his age 30 & 31 seasons as well.
  21. SF70
    With this teams very likely monstrous farm system over the next half-decade, I think they can be very selective in who they offer extensions to. With positionals, the priority over pitchers for 2 reasons — less injury risk, and also it’s what we do best — develop pitching, so we should always have pitching available. I think the team should zero in on Quero like they did with Chourio. Locking him up to give the team up to 9-10 years of that pairing would be franchise-altering and give the team 2 top players at their positions in the game. Having a farm as strong as MKE will have and for as long as they will have will give them so many options for extensions moving-forward, especially with all of the teenage talent currently in the system and skill of the team’s IFA department. Besides Quero, who very likely should be offered, I’d list Lara-YRod-Pratt as 3 more future extension candidates depending on development.
  22. SF70
    Absolutely could be really exciting. The key to doing the extension’s are to do them with positionals mostly (less risk) and to do them early, so as to get hugely team friendly terms. They did this with Chourio, and my guess is they can, and will do this with Quero as well. I think extension’s should also be reserved for the best & youngest of the positionals, garnering the most prime-performance years as possible.
  23. SF70
    I think the team is flush with starter options. Having Hall and Ashby rotation gives the team an abundance of starter options even if Ashby needs to start the year in Nashville to buildup arm strength. Peralta-Hall-Miley-Rea-Ashby?-Ross-Junis is 6-7 deep before we even get to Gasser or eventually CRod-McKendry or even possibly Misiorowski. Even if Ashby and Hall need to eventually go to the bullpen because of inning limitations, they can replace with Gasser and or CRod.
  24. SF70
    Early returns look promising. The mechanical changes Hall made the second-half of last season alluded to by Arem & Jack seem to have unlocked a future rotation monster. If true, Hall alone would make the Burnes trade a success. Getting a 3-5 WAR SS and 34th pick/pool money makes it a steal of a trade.
  25. SF70
    I’ll also add the fact of him only signing for 200K and coming from Venezuela where his family is likely quite poor giving him tremendous incentive to get his money sooner rather than waiting till later. I see a future Chourio-type extension in length offered and likely accepted.
