    Too many good hitters starting to hit their “sweet-spot” of prime-age performance combined with BL experience. The only regular outside of that sweet-spot is Yelich. As a whole expect to see more HR’s from the aforementioned SS-group, mitigated somewhat by regression from Yelich, but still more HR’s overall.
  2. SF70
    I hope not. He seemed washed to me, especially late in the season, besides I don’t think the team needs to sign a FA starter on the downside of his career. We go more than 10 deep in starters with BL experience if we stretch-out Hall & Ashby, plus we have a deep group of starter arm prospects in the upper-minors.
  3. SF70
    And this is only the beginning. We get Knoth-Galindez-Woodward-Broughton back from their TJ rehabs to go with what has to be the deepest group of solid or better starter arm talent in the game. Better positional health also with this incredible arm talent will give this team maybe what could be the best farm system in modern history sometime within the next year to year and a half.
  4. SF70
    And just wait till the Brewers young pitching drafted in the last couple of drafts starts to breakout. Incredible time to be a Brewers fan.

    No way this team trades Peralta if they weren’t confident in their starting pitching. Arnold said it more than once how excited they were in their SP. Maybe they bring in a veteran FA starter, but they might just go with a veteran starter on a minor-league deal to preserve roster flexibility. Having 8-9 solid or better starters with BL experience and a nice group of upper-minors SP talent that could breakout throughout the season, imo affords them that option.

    No, he doesn’t fit the Brewers insistence on plus defense or their time-line with Pratt-Made potentially a year away and needing to see if Ortiz can get his bat going so his GG defense at SS can play.
  7. SF70
    Love the trade. Gives us a head-start on being the best farm system in baseball and by the time Williams-Sproat graduate the system will only get stronger with all the breakouts in the first half of the minors season. Right now a postseason top 3 starters of Woodruff-Misiorowski-Patrick is a dynamic trio that can get us to the WS. FO will probably add another depth starter to make sure we have the requisite depth to get through a Championship season and if we need another playoff starter we can get one at the trade-deadline. The talent we now have organizationally is second only to the Dodgers and will give us a 10 year stretch of winning unprecedented by any small-market team in BL history.

    Which is the #1 reason to trade Freddy. The Woodruff injury in 2023 had to have made MKE gun-shy about going the distance with starting pitchers. Let’s get the guaranteed return and move on.
  9. SF70
    The Brewers have a great opportunity to win a WS over the next decade. And the reason is two-fold: 1. The Dodgers and other LM teams will incur stiffer penalties for spending with each new CBA, that will limit their spending and act like a cap, without being a hard-cap. 2. As the Brewers organizational talent-level continues to mature their big-league team will only get better. 80% of the BL positionals & starting pitching talent has at least 4 more years of control and all will be within their prime-performance years. Then in addition, during these next 4 years we have the best young farm in the game that will spit out impact talent at key positions including pitching that should only improve the overall talent-level of the team moving-forward. A 5+ year period of time with Chourio-Made-Pena-Miz and other impact talent playing baseball together will be a beautiful thing to behold.

    I’d play Baty at 3B/corner OF. He massively improves the IF depth of the team at worst and at best gives the team a good defending, power-hitting 3B that can push Durbin to utility or RHH platoon bat at 3rd.
  11. SF70
    Please no Dominguez, who can’t defend, or Jones, who can’t make contact. Both are anti-Brewers players, imo. If we do business with Cashman, it should be headlined by Gil (not my preference) or Warren, who I’d prefer plus prospects.
  12. SF70
    Sheehan has 4 years of control, not 5, but even though I’d hate to deal Freddy to the Dodgers, if Friedman offered up the 1 for 1 I’d do it for 4 years of Sheehan. Another offseason past his TJ surgery gives him a good opportunity to gain another tick back on his FB which just makes his stuff that much more devastating. Don’t want any other trade possibility with them. Also don’t think Friedman would do the trade. Don’t think Boston will give up Tolle. Too much upside and Boston doesn’t need Freddy as badly after their SP acquisitions this offseason. Also not seeing Stearns trading Tong and for the same reason as Boston holding Tolle, too much upside. Atlanta doesn’t have the prospects to make a trade with MKE imo. Same with San Diego. The Mets, have the best, most realistic package of players to deal. The recent acquisition of Bichette, imo, changes everything. Guessing Arnold didn’t think Baty would be available prior, but Stearns might include him in a package now. 4 years of Baty is quite valuable in and of itself, with his 3+ WAR breakout last season so a Sproat added might be too much for Stearns but depending on the Mets internal evaluations, a secondary piece like Wenninger might work. Baty gives the team plus WAR for the ‘26 season and Wenninger another future depth starter and as early as the second-half of next season.
  13. SF70
    No way Stearns does that deal. Maybe Baty & Wenninger & lotto, or even Baty & Wenninger without the lotto, which I’d do. Tong is a top 50 pitching prospect. Baty was a 3 WAR player last season and has 4 years of control left. Mauricio is a former top prospect and still young enough to breakout. That’s just too much of an overpay for 1 year of Peralta. Wenninger is a future #4 starter, possibly more in MKE’s PDS. Baty adds good defense and power to a team in need of pop, and helps the team next season.
  14. SF70
    Prefer Freddy go to an AL team and the Yankees have the $$ to extend him and keep him there.
  15. SF70
    Even the best international system in the game can’t hit it out of the park with each and every class. Last years class, at least positionally, was a below average class so the odds favor this years class being much better, and after reading the SR’s I’m optimistic it will be. Taylor Green sounded awfully excited about this class and that has me stoked as well.
  16. SF70
    FYI— Baltimore gave up their comp A pick in their acquisition of Shane Baz from the Rays.
  17. SF70
    He brings a wealth of experience in his 30 years in baseball. Deepens the MKE executive talent bench. Also a brilliant decision by Levine to enter the best organization in baseball and learn from the smartest baseball minds in the game. He no dummy.
  18. SF70
    Imo. the Brewers have the deepest system and the youngest system in the game, which will lead to a future #1 ranking a year from now. The Miz graduation dings the system ranking currently, but as BA pointed out in their recent podcast, with the Pirates graduating a couple of their top prospects throughout this season and the Cardinals doing the same with Wetherholt, the Brewers, with Made as the likely #1 prospect in baseball should shoot to the top, and imo, stay there for quite some time thanks to their incredible depth of young prospects, especially on the pitching side.
  19. SF70
    Can’t imagine a system with as many potential pitching prospect breakouts as ours. Positional as well, with what should be a healthier year for the likes of Quero-Boeve-Wilken-Adamczewski & Payne. And with all of the control the team has over their BL team, this system shouldn’t graduate too many over the next year giving the team what should be their most highly rated farm system ever. Of course trades could thin things out a little but with another international class added in 2 weeks and another draft-class in July, they could be in an incredible position of strength come trade-deadline with a farm system literally bursting at the seams.
  20. SF70
    Because the team’s local TV revenue might get slashed with the news that Fan Duel might be dissolving.
  21. SF70
    When Misiorowski re-introduces his CH, which I predict will happen at some point moving-forward, he’s going to be the most unhittable pitcher in baseball. Improved command will get him to the Skenes-Skubal tier — can’t wait.
  22. SF70
    I would argue the Brewers have a better opportunity to get to the WS without a salary cap. They have figured out how to build the best Small-Market organization in baseball and by a lot, and outside of the LAD, the best organization from top to bottom in the game. A salary cap will bring more teams into the mix and neuter the advantage MKE has over 97% of the teams in MLB. Currently, we are in the early stages of the golden age of Brewers fandom, with the best yet to come.
  23. SF70
    None of the above. Personally, I think the Baz acquisition takes Baltimore out of the Peralta sweepstakes. Substitute Tolle for Witherspoon and I might do the Boston deal. Substitute Tong for Sproat and I might do the Mets deal.
  24. SF70
    Agree. Not overly impressed with the player return. The 33rd pick makes the total return decent, but no more than that as far as I’m concerned.
  25. SF70
    The trades today likely take Baltimore & Houston out of the Freddy Peralta sweepstakes. Bidding war just got reduced some along with the odds of Peralta getting traded. Still think he goes.
