  1. Incredible news. This is the player to build around. He’s ready now so this gives the team a good opportunity to get another 1st round pick in ‘25 and a superstar player for hopefully a decade or more.
  2. They already have prospects that will impact the team in 2-3 years. Gasser-Chourio-Black in ‘24 Quero-Wilken-EBJ-CRod-Misiorowski in ‘25/‘26. Henderson-Knoth-Pratt-Bitonti-Lara-Baez-Adams-Boeve in ‘26/‘27. The ‘24 & ‘25 draft-class in ‘27-‘29. The team has a top 5 farm for a reason. The 1 player that absolutely should be traded is Williams because he won’t bring back a pick, and the return for 2 years to the right team could rival what they would get for 1 year of Burnes.
  3. I’d rather they put the money towards extensions. Start with Adames this offseason, Chourio before the end of the ‘24 season.
  4. I would possibly agree with your reasoning IF they trade a non-TT OF this offseason, but I think they would be selling too low and thus will hold for now. Agree Wiemer should AAA to start the year, but even IF Chourio is held back until S2, that still creates a massive log-jam of talented OF’s post S2 that will need to play, neither of whom, except for Yelich, should DH.
  5. The most this FO has spent on a starter was $9M for Chacin, so I’m not seeing them spend $11-14M for multiple years on any starter. I think they go cheaper (Fedde type) and sign depth starters on minors deals. If they deal Burnes it will be with a big-league starter returned.
  6. His hand/thumb injury might had something to do with his mini-slump in August. It seemed to take a bit of time to shake the rust-off.
  7. Compensatory pick for losing Adames is the 4th. Hoping for another 1st rounder with Chourio winning ROY while rostered OD as well.
  8. Justin Yeager-Harold Chirino-Tobias Myers (guessing he’s moved to RP)-Ryan Middendorf-Darrell Thompson are all worthy of monitoring next season. Love Holub-Myers-Yeager-Chirino as potential shuttle arms next season, with Shook as a dark horse.
  9. Chourio’s improvement post-tacky balls was quite impressive, outside of a small hiccup when he injured his hand/thumb and took a bit to get going again. He literally destroyed winter-league pitching, of which has been compared to AAA pitching so since July of ‘23 he has been elite. Maybe the team will manipulate his ST?, but maybe the team has decided they’ve seen enough and want him to impact the big-club OD and figure they can extend him to make the service-time moot. Chourio can also be good enough to win the ROY without being rostered OD and if that happens he gets a full year of service anyhow.
  10. It’s not just Chourio-Frelick-Mitchell, let’s add Wiemer-TT to the trio. That’s 5 OF’s, not including Yelich. The performance of Chourio since the tacky balls were no more including the winter-league explosion has to have potentially sped-up the timeline of Chourio and the team already has multiple other talented OF ‘s they need to make room for. Guessing they hold their OF’s that have sell-low probabilities, which to me are all of them except TT. Based on the aforementioned information, filling the DH position with Jiminez doesn’t seem like a wise move.
  11. This isn’t that hard. Burnes and Adames will only be traded if the team receives an offer that crushes the pick & ‘24 Burnes/Adames performance, including a big-league player that helps the team win in ‘24. This team has made it abundantly clear they have zero interest in a rebuild, which makes sense with the infrastructure, including farm system that they currently enjoy. They get a “godfather” deal or they hold and go win the central with them.
  12. When Chourio is installed (hoping it’s OD) and if the team holds Mitchell-Frelick, I think Yelich’s days as a LF for this team will be reduced and his days as a DH will increase, probably substantially. A Jiminez trade handcuffs the team in a big way since he’s unplayable for an Arnold-led team anywhere in the field, and as a full-time DH will absolutely limit the teams options of moving Yelich there and giving the team the blazing fast and elite defensive OF of Frelick-Chourio-Mitchell.
  13. Interesting rotation taking shape with that team. 36-36-35-34 are today’s ages of their starters. They really need to trade for Glasnow in their attempt to go for it 1 more year before they rebuild. Then they need to add starter depth and 3-4 bullpen arms. If they can accomplish that they could get their pitching to near average, maybe a smidgen above with some luck on the health front.
  14. If the Pirates don’t overpay for Santana, I believe he’ll be back. I’m wanting him back, especially at $7-8M, which is probably what he gets.
  15. No. All of our OF’s except TT should be held at this time. It’s sell low on all of them right now, so no reason to do that, unless the team has decided that one of them isn’t going to amount to anything, but guessing that it the case. Jiminez has nowhere to play on this years team. We have many more options for DH this year than even last year, including Tyler Black.
  16. The Brewers would never move Peralta for the return you are proposing. Lee is a great prospect, but the pitchers are either kinda meh (Raya) or way too far away from the bigs (Soto). The combination of stuff, contract and control (3 years) make Peralta incredibly valuable and if the team did indeed decide to offer him around the league he would return a lot more than Lee-Soto-Raya.
  17. I think Perdomo had TJ surgery late last year, so he’s likely to miss the year.
  18. If indeed Burnes can return 2 big-league players plus 2 prospects then yes he will go, but I’m skeptical the team can get an offer like that. I think it more likely 1 big-leaguer plus prospects, which depending on the big-league piece (Sheehan?) the team still might go with. Fascinating offseason ahead.
  19. Baseball America statcast farm system rankings— hitting. Underlying metrics via Hawkeye data from the minors: 1. LAD 2. NYY 3. Det. 4. Phil. 5. MKE “The Brewers are the third youngest organization. When factoring in age, the Brewers jump from 7th to 5th. The Brewers have a combination of young players with advanced plate skills and at least average exit velocity data.” For those of us that believe this teams farm system has tremendous young talent, namely teenage talent — confirmation of that here I believe thru statcast. This bodes well for future positional waves post-‘2026.
  20. Against as well. Why take a chance with more pitcher injuries?
  21. He stays, hopefully with an extension, but if not, for his contract year performance/ draft-pick/ pool money. Limited teams need shortstops, so there won’t be any bidding wars which will help keep the return down. So he stays and helps the team win another NL central title.
  22. Yeah, I don’t see this team spending $12M+ for a starting pitcher. Maybe a Fedde for $5-7M? and only if Ashby is bullpenning to keep his workload down. I think they go with signing starters on minor-league deals for depth. If they sign a Fedde, Gasser can be the 6th starter. If they trade Burnes, they likely get a starter returned they can rotation immediately. CRod should be ready sometime around mid-season if needed.
