    They definitely have a direction and it’s up. They have tremendous depth with so many options, imo, they can upgrade weaknesses internally on the fly up to the deadline and will have the financial-flexibility to add any payroll they want to, to improve the team further. This years team can win the Central, and this will very likely be their worst team maybe thru the rest of this decade. Top 2 farm system, with a nice young core. Extra picks with ~$13M in pool money for this years draft, and if we QO Adames & Hoskins (and he opts out) 4 top 40 picks with ~$16M in pool money for the ‘25 draft. They have never had anything close to this type of ammo for Johnson & co., but yet they still have produced good to great drafts the last 4 years (reflected in the farm strength). Hopefully a future Quero extension will give us ~10 years of Chourio-Quero with that nice core and monster farm for at least 2-3 years past 2025, if not longer with this teams prospect-procurement systems. They have a direction and have had a direction since day 1 under this teams FO. Just sit back and continue to enjoy the ride.

    Easy A grade Jake, even if Hall ends up part of the nastiest bullpen in baseball. Ortiz is the prize because of his incredible SS defense/bat combo. Easy 3 WAR floor with 5 WAR upside if he can eventually launch. This is the type of player (plus SS defense) the Brewers value, maybe as much or more than any team in baseball. Getting the draft-pick a year early helps strengthen the farm earlier and in turn helps the ‘26 team vs the ‘27 team.

    1. Chourio 2. Quero And then everyone else. Quero is the perfect extension candidate for the same reasons Chourio was. Talent & age, but unlike Chourio, who signed for $1.9M, Quero only signed for 200K.

    Lots of risk, but the upside is enormous. If all goes right, Misiorowski could be another Glasnow. Ashby a TOR starter, and Hall another TOR. But all 3 could also end up in the bullpen. Fortunatly, we have an elite PDS, and as such, at least with Mis & Hall, I’m expecting both to be closer to the former, if not reach their ceilings. Ashby’s shoulder injury could keep him from reaching his ceiling no matter how great our PDS. The FO has done a great job of adding starter talent to the farm in the last 2-3 years, with Gasser & CRod being safe bets to rotation, even if only having #3-5 starter potential. If Ashby can get his stuff all the way back eventually, this team could have a rotation to rival the Burnes-Woodruff-Peralta staff, only this time with great positional talent playing behind them.

    Don’t think Adames gets moved. I think Adames’s performance for us in his contract year and knowing we can get a comp pick + 2.6M in pool money plus the fact the team wants to contend this year vs what we can get prospect-wise returned, when there are so few teams likely bidding for Adames leads me to conclude he stays.
  6. SF70
    I love Sheehan and think he’s a future TOR starter so I’d definitely trade Williams and Adames to acquire him, whether it your proposal or mine with international bonus money instead of Wroblewski returned.
  7. SF70
    Sheehan is worth the risk. Just a smidgen less ceiling than Bobby Miller. We’ll get a pretty decent lottery ticket with the international bonus money, so there is that.
  8. SF70
    Adames & Williams to the Dodgers for: Emmet Sheehan & 500K in international bonus money. Let’s get 6 years of a future TOR starter, and give Armstrong & co more money to do their thing.
  9. SF70
    The organization just fixed their 2 biggest needs — plus fielding SS, that can also hit & future playoff starter. Adding the comp pick to this years draft just gets even more talent added to a farm system that even after graduating Chourio-Black-Gasser, should remain among the top 5-8 systems in the game. Incredible time to be a Brewers fan.
  10. SF70
    Small has no value. Wilson not much, and Mitchell I believe, needs to get through a season relatively unscathed first before he’s valued by opponent clubs. Substitute Frelick for Mitchell and add Payamps and maybe DiPoto thinks hard about losing his starter depth.
  11. SF70
    Yeah, I suppose better late than never. Adley-Henderson should have been locked already, extending them now is going to cost a fortune— but worth it. The Orioles with a spending owner are a frightening team moving-forward.
  12. SF70
    Yeah, not seeing the team adding another $15-20M in payroll. I think they will want to keep financial-flexibility intact for possible deadline moves. If anything, I think we could possibly see trade/trades as the route to improve the team and or organization as a whole.
  13. SF70
    I think the team is done adding FA pitching, outside of a minor-league contract on a starter. They will want to have the financial-flexibility to add what they need at the deadline. They go at least 8 deep with starters — Burnes-Peralta-Miley-Rea-Gasser-Ross-McKendry-Ashby. CRod can rotation if needed at some point in the second-half. That’s a deep and potentially strong rotation. Retaining financial-flexibility gives them the ability to add a starter at the deadline if needed.
  14. SF70
    If the team holds all of our OF’s, I think the team options Wiemer to gain the extra year and give him regular AB’s to open the season. I also see the team potentially optioning Mitchell to get him regular play and AB’s after missing most of last year. Yelich-Frelick-Chourio-Perkins and possibly Boller to open the season if they want 5 OF’s. Eventually call up Wiemer-Mitchell depending on performance and if both are raking rotate them with Frelick with Yelich to majority DH. I’m with Chorizo and think the team should trade Frelick, guessing his trade value should be highest of the 3.
  15. SF70
    From what I’ve read the ‘25 draft appears to be an average class, unlike ‘24, which appears to be below average, and unlike ‘23, which was incredibly deep thanks to covid. i’ll take an average class with this team’s skill in manipulating $18M in pool money. Last year proved their skill in that regard, and the previous 3 drafts ‘20-‘21’-‘22, showed they can put good classes together without high draft-picks.
  16. SF70
    The team has something special going on with their prospect procurement systems. A top 3 farm almost solely thru amateur prospect procurement skill. This bodes well moving forward because it allows for the retention of talent thru the 6-7 years vs having to sell-off after only 4-5-6 years of service.
  17. SF70
    And the way this team’s domestic draft department has been putting classes together the last 4 years, we could be looking at a class for the ages. Even if we don’t get the PPI pick, 5 picks and $18M+ in pool money should give Johnson & co. the opportunity to stock the system with enough talent to keep the farm strong thru late this decade. Incredible time to be a Brewers fan.
  18. SF70
    Has anyone brought-up yet that maybe Boras has assurances from Arnold for Hoskins to play a majority of his time at 1B so he can show teams he’s good to go as a 1B moving-forward?
  19. SF70
    Team is set to win and win big. The rotation has enough options internally. They go 7 deep with Burnes-Peralta-Miley-Rea-Ross-Gasser-McKendry with Ashby the wild-card and likely to rotation at some point during the year. I think we see CRod before the year is out, but only if he’s needed. The Bullpen is the strength of the team, and deep with big arms all the way thru Biloxi. The offense with the additions of Hoskins-Chourio-Black, Adames in his contract year, and experience gained from Turang-Frelick-Wiemer with Mitchell back and healthy is as underrated as any in baseball. Power-Speed-Baserunning, it has it all. The defense is still strong, even with Black at 3B and Hoskins at 1B. They have the financial-flexibility and farm system to acquire whoever they want to at the deadline to fix weaknesses. I think we see the team let the young talent develop and entering the postseason this team will be a top 5 team in baseball.
  20. SF70
    Absolutely. 5 top picks (6 if Chourio can nab ROY) & $20M in pool money for Johnson & co. sets the team up to possibly better last years historic class. Add 3-4 nice prospects returned in the Contreras trade, Another top pick added to the ‘26 draft (Williams) and this team is headed for juggernaut later this decade just thru having a monster farm for a half-decade or longer.
  21. SF70
    8 year plus 2 option years, $15M less than Chourio’s contract. Contreras is traded after the ‘25 offseason for 3-4 prospects that combined with another monster ‘25 draft-class give the Brewers a top 5 farm system thru at least 2028.
  22. SF70
    Quero is the second most valuable player asset this organization has and will probably get extended in a similar fashion to his fellow countryman and #1 team asset, Jackson Chourio. 8-9 years of Chourio-Quero should give this team a really good opportunity to win a WS before this decade is over.
  23. SF70
    I’d probably do that deal even though I’m not that high on Povich.
  24. SF70
    BA is probably highest on Basallo than the others, still need more for 3 years of a top 30-40 starter in baseball. I’m holding Peralta unless blown away, and since teams rarely trade their best prospects anymore, he can start game 1 in the ‘25 & ‘26 playoffs, then I’ll take the pick and the pool money.
  25. SF70
    Not enough. Basallo probably moves off C full time, to 1B/OF and loses some value because of that. Now add Mayo and I’d do it.
