  1. I like the pitching added, although I find it hard to believe the Dodgers would give-up that much pitching for 2 years total of Burnes/Adames.
  2. Top 15 for me. I’ll go 15. I’m super excited about this trade. I love Matt Arnold. Mets can have Stearns now that our infrastructure has been rebuilt. I’ll take the scouts eye.
  3. Should be fascinating to see how the FO/Murphy handle the incredible team speed and baserunning ability forthcoming. This team has an opportunity to run the opposition to death and I’m expecting them to take advantage.
  4. No reason why this team’s prospects can’t breakout like the Reds prospects did last season. We have Chourio, who’s currently destroying winter league pitching poised to make the OD roster with superstar potential. Tyler Black, who’s probably our second best hitting prospect, also set to enter the lineup early next year. If 1 of Mitchell/Frelick breaks out in the box this team suddenly has an offense to go with their elite defense. Even without Williams, the bullpen will be strong and if they end up trading Burnes, it will be because they got blown-away with a return, including a player that helps the team next year, in all likelihood. I see a contending team next year even if they end up trading Burnes/Williams.
  5. This is the weakest position in our entire farm system. Brown-Pratt, that’s it for real SS prospects. The rest are no power, gap hitters at best or 2B/3B/CF. Hoping the team can add another SS prospect with pop thru this years draft and or add one by trade.
  6. Quero-Myers-Devanney. Quero of course. Myers stuff out of the pen is too strong to potentially lose. Shuttle arm next season. Devanney can field, throw and slug. In my opinion he should be given an opportunity to beat out Monasterio for a roster spot.with MKE. His power and SS play gets him past Monasterio if I’m the GM.
  7. The Brewers are not going to rebuild. If they trade Burnes-Adames or Williams it will be because the return blows away the comp pick, in which case they likely get talent for today (the ‘24 season) as well as tomorrow, and with their returning talent including the best bullpen in the game (just replace Williams with Misiorowski sometime during the second-half of the season) can still contend for the central crown. Not as strong as with them granted, but strong enough to still be a contender.
  8. Woody missed 80% of last year. And another season of Burnes will net a top 35 pick and the pool money that comes with it, which is extremely valuable considering this teams prospect procurement systems. Not having Counsell shouldn’t affect the direction the team takes. This team can contend next year and they don’t need Counsell & Woody to do it.
  9. If the team trades Burnes it will be because they got a deal they couldn’t refuse. Same with Williams and Adames. They would likely get prospects/players that would also help next years team compete, Attanasio’s recent statements of the team having the 5th best record in baseball and able to compete with anybody flies in the face of a sell-off for prospects, imo.
  10. Mattingly would make a great manager for this team. Tons of managing experience overall including years of working with young talent at Miami. What impressed me watching those Marlins teams was he got them to relentlessly compete even tho the rosters he had were terrible. Love his aggressiveness on the bases, which this team needs with all of our speed and baserunning ability. Players seemed to enjoy playing for him so I believe he has the requisite communication skills.
  11. Spot-on analysis on our dynamic infrastructure. One thing I’m sure about Attanasio is he’s smart enough to know that a strong infrastructure is the key to sustained success as a SM team and I’m confident he’ll continue to hire the right people, including paying and promoting the people he has employed.
  12. The farm is devoid of power at the SS position. Pratt should develop power over time, so there’s hope with him but that’s about it. Devanney-Bitonti-Baez are 3B. The rest are singles hitters with some gap power. Next years draft, I’m hoping for a real SS with power potential gets added. I prefer a college bat but if it’s HS, so be it.
  13. Exactly. The sophomores should all improve. Our 2 best hitting prospects are poised to enter next year’s lineup at some point, probably sooner than later. I’m betting on a big year from Adames and good year’s again from Yelich-Contreras.
  14. Absolutely. And a top farm system created from within, without a sell-off or high draft-pick. Scouting combined with skill in draft-pool money manipulation in the draft and scouting internationally with special emphasis of scouting in Venezuela. This team infrastructure strength is going to continue the pipeline of talent indefinitely, which supersedes any perceived negative about this team. Patience is what we really need here, and for those that have it, this is only the beginning stages of the golden era of Brewers fandom.
  15. Love your thinking, just think adjustments would need to be made with Hoskins (if you really want him) and the trade with Baltimore. Bauer maybe could be had for 1 at 13, but Hoskins is getting a multi-year deal. He should be 100% by OD and there should be plenty of teams bidding on his power bat. Like the Williams trade idea to Baltimore just don’t think they would give up Ortiz and Hall. Might have to choose among them and add lessor secondaries. I’m forgoing adding Hoskins, and going with Santana. The rest of your roster is spot on to what I’d do. Nice job!
  16. The team has stated they have zero (0) desire to rebuild. And with the infrastructure, farm, young core and ridiculous bullpen this team has I can see why.
  17. While it’s true the Mets could spend $340M+ on payroll next year if they want to — I don’t think they will. I think they will reset their tax penalty threshold so they can spend again in ‘25. I don’t see Stearns wanting to deal with the penalties of blowing past the Cohen threshold for the 3rd straight year.
  18. $3.5M for a starter that in 22 starts last year went 5+ innings 17 times with 15 bulk outing’s giving up 3 or less runs is quite the bargain. 1.18 WHIP to boot.
  19. I agree. I think the team see’s another gear with Rea and his 6 pitches. Maybe not a #2, but a 3-4, is possible, imo.
  20. Williams & 1 of Mitchell/Frelick/Wiemer for: Mayo +. The Orioles need a closer and the Brewers can contend next year without Williams because of their 4-5 headed monster at the backend. Mayo should be ready by S2 or before and having his power and Wilken’s at corner infield until 2030 sounds good to me. Tyler Black can play one of the corner OF spots to get his bat into the lineup.
  21. If anything the owners will add 2 more teams to the postseason, maybe as early as the next CBA. It’s not just the extra money, it also gives more SM teams hope for a WS without having to address the revenue disparities in MLB.
  22. Nice job with your site. Like the detail on the SR’s. Also like how high you have Lara ranked. I think he’s being ignored by most sites, but not you, so kudos for recognizing an incredible teenage talent.
  23. No way Baltimore gives up Mayo PLUS Norby or the Dodgers 10-11 years of Pepiot-Vargas for 1 year of Burnes. Just too much. Severino is perpetually injured and likely carries far too much risk for a team like MKE. The problem with trading Burnes is the timing. Gasser will be a rookie, Ashby might have to pitch out of the bullpen next season, if at all, and CRod might need the year in AAA. So that leaves Peralta-Houser-Gasser. Maybe they can bring back Miley or a comparable FA, but that leaves 2-more veteran arms needed additionally. Peralta plus 4-5 backend starters doesn’t give me much comfort going into next year even with our likely monstrous bullpen.
  24. I’m not giving-up a contention season, which trading Burnes would likely do, not for prospects that this team doesn’t need. Porter is 2-3 years away, Lieter a couple, IF he can fix his command. We have enough starter arms now all throughout the system that the team’s elite PDS can develop to fill a rotation without a Porter. Gasser-CRod-Mis (ace/closer) Henderson-Internationals, then another wave with Knoth-Birchard & the HS’ers. We can trade Williams and still contend because of the 4 or 5 headed monster we have returning from our bullpen, plus a minors with intriguing relievers and a FO with a proven track-record of finding arms outside of the organization.
