  1. Your numbers are a bit off there. Yelich is signed for $26 M and an extension for Woodruff would be in the same range as what Castillo signed ($24 M). That's around $50 M combined for them both, leaving about $80 M for the rest of the team.

  3. Finishing fourth with four players ahead of you. That's quite an accomplishment.

  5. "Most teams #3" Yeah, non-contending teams. And in 2002, Lauer would have been the Brewers ace. Ace on a team that loses over 100 games. Any team that looks at Lauer as their #3 isn't a team looking to make the playoffs.

  7. If Renfroe is a prominent non-tender candidate, they aren't getting much in talent back for him. A direct quote from your first response to me: "It's not like you'd non-tender them." Lauer IS a back of the rotation, innings eater. Nothing more. He's not bringing back a "valuable high leverage reliever" (again, quoting you). And even if he did, that reliever's salary would be as much, if not more than Lauer's. They WOULD have to get rid of a bunch of salary to sign Abreu. You are probably the only one on the planet that thinks, "hey, they'll just add $20 M to the payroll to sign Abreu." I picked Renfroe, Tellez and Lauer/Houser because their combined salaries are about $20 M Abreu will get. It could be Renfroe and Adames. That's about $20 M, also.

  9. The case for the Brewers signing Aaron Judge: He's good and would be an upgrade to players we currently have. Hey, I could write for this site!

  11. I'll put is so simply even you would understand. Weimer, Abreau and some reliever would NOT be an upgrade over Renfroe, Tellez and Lauer. Plus the Abreau variation would cost more money.

  13. Ah, early in the off-season. When opium dreams run wild.

  15. Renfroe is already a prominent mention on most possible non-tender lists, so he ain't bringing back much in trade. Lauer as a #3? HA. And have you seen the market on relievers lately? The going rate on a "valuable high leverage reliever" is about the same as Lauer will be making, if not more So you think it's a good idea to take Renfroe, Tellez and Lauer off the team, replacing them with a 35 year-old making $20 M and a rookie that doesn't have a single MLB appearance, while weakening the depth at starting pitcher. And spending more money. But we do add a set-up reliever. And a lottery pick prospect.

  17. Only if that top player is coming in at the league minimum.

  19. MLBtraderumors projects Abreu to get 2/$40 M and Bell to get 4/$64. To get there, that means Renfroe, Tellez and one of Houser/Lauer would have to go. Is either truly enough of an upgrade over Rowdy?
  20. Unless Burnes and/or Woodruff is traded, the team would be looking at 5th starter/depth pitchers. That's not going to be someone at $11 M. More likely a quantity over quality strategy. Three Zach Davies will cost less than any on this list.
