  1. Prefer Freddy go to an AL team and the Yankees have the $$ to extend him and keep him there.
  2. 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.
  3. FYI— Baltimore gave up their comp A pick in their acquisition of Shane Baz from the Rays.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. Because the team’s local TV revenue might get slashed with the news that Fan Duel might be dissolving.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. Yeah don’t think he’ll be as cheap as you think. If Houser gets a 2 year $22M deal, Littel won’t be too far off that, imo. Post-Peralta trade, this team’s rotation is deep enough with solid arms to get to the trade-deadline in good shape, imo. If Ashby rotations, they go 8-9 deep with starter arms that have big-league experience. I think they go the starters on minor-league signing route instead of adding a FA starter.
  14. Don’t use that website. Duran conservatively at 12 WAR the next 3 years. At $7M/WAR = $84M - $38M in arby = 46M in STV. Peralta with 4.5 WAR. At $7M/WAR = $31.5M - $8M salary = 23.5M STV.
  15. Post of the thread. Mears was history anyhow. Collins, doesn’t fit the Brewers run-prevention model, especially late-season with his strange defensive regression likely sealing his fate with this team. Watched Zerpa a decent amount pitching a lot of HL for KC, and liked what I saw. The makings of a dominant HL arm is there for the Brewers to work their magic with. This is the type of trade that gets this team closer to winning a WS title. Arnold & co will not be denied.
  16. Great trade. Mears had no options, diminished stuff and needed to go. Like Collins, but his weird defensive regression the second-half of the season gave me pause. Love Zerpa’s stuff. Brewers will turn him into a HL monster.
  17. Mears is good as gone, imo. Multiple teams interested should nab a decent return. Not having an option has sealed Mears fate with this team.
  18. Should be motivated to get in shape unlike the tubby he was after signing his last contract. Guessing he can pitch with MKE sometime in the second-half of the year and hopefully impact the postseason.
  19. This team is getting closer to making a big trade or trades. They have a farm that by the trade-deadline should be overflowing with pitching depth, and IF depth, especially R5’ers next offseason that they will need to thin out.
  20. I think the flexor-injury he experienced late-season, along with his injury history, is going to hold down the trade-return for Megill. He’s also not a historically great closer/HL arm like Williams was when he was traded. Injury concern is why I’m trading him, with the $4M in $ savings a bonus that can give the team more financial-flexibility to make moves during the season if deemed necessary, after-all, they currently have the largest payroll in team history.
  21. I think the $ savings could be bigger than we think with this being the largest OD payroll in team history right now. I want more financial-flexibility during the season to make moves if deemed necessary. The trade-return is a bonus.
  22. Further injury risk makes Megill expendable. Saving the $4M+ can be used at the trade-deadline if needed. This team builds bullpens like no other.
  23. Of the 4 full-season affiliates, which one are you most excited to watch in the early going next season?
  24. Hold him for now. The team, as is, should be good to go until the trade-deadline as far as big trades go and if Ortiz still can’t hit by that time and Pratt ends up raking in AAA, he becomes an internal option to possibly upgrade the SS position. The WC is Ortiz. If he can get near where Steamer thinks he will in the box next season (95 wRC+) no one, including Made, is replacing Ortiz at short not only next season but if he can maintain his improved hitting, probably 2027 as well.
