I have a soft spot for guys who have been in the minors a while and Devanney is 26. He was drafted by the Brewers in the 15th round and can play SS/3B or even 1B as a RHH platoon option. Do I think he'd change much for the offense? No. But he probably can't do worse. He hit 23 homers between Biloxi and Nashville last year and has an OPS over .800 again this year. He has good pop and I would rather see a long-time farmhand get a shot at some ABs over Jahmai Jones.

Didn't he just sign a 6-year extension last year? I don't see the Brewers committing to someone long-term and would have to pay extra. I do think COL is a good trade partner and has other rentals who will be FAs after the year who won't cost a high prospect at all unless multiple players involved. Cron at 1b/dh; Grichuk, even Profar for bats and Suter reunion paired with it and still maybe a JGJ and maybe Avino get it done probably.

It is pretty funny the Cardinals were counted out what 35 games in? Now they are 5 games out of the division lol what not even 50 games in lol. I can't stand the Cardinals but in this horrendous NL Central they weren't out of it. Now, the offense is brutal, which has been common lately. This team also needs more from Burnes particularly with the injuries to the rotation. Offensively, this team may need to trade for a OFer like a 1-year guy like Jurickson Profar or Randal Grichuk from COL. Grichuk could help vs. LHP or Profar would have like the third-highest OPS of any Brewer regular. Having very similar season to Brian Anderson/Yelich (.750 OPS) has given which would be a nice addition.

Would Franmil Reyes be a no cost guy to take a flyer on? He struggled with the Royals, but him at AmFam could be worth taking a chance on. He has a pair of 30 HR seasons. He was released by the Royals on Monday. He seems like a better version of Keston Hiura. Reyes could play OF in a pinch but would probably be a RHH DH vs a lefty to replace Voit.

I would much rather have the Brewers sign a Duvall as this team might need some pop or even a Jose Iglesias as a guy who can play SS and play 2B vs LHP for cheap than even pay Escobar 6 mill or whatever the Mets had eaten.

I agree on Cornielle. Another guy in Appleton I think being overlooked is Carlos Rodriguez. He has some pretty good stuff, kind of reminds me a bit of Eldique Hernandez. He has that more slurve and a curve. I think Rodriguez tossed six no-hit innings in one of his last starts. He struck out 129 batters across 107.1 innings between CAR and APP. In 7 starts, 36 innings in Appleton he had a sub-2 ERA and a 3.53 ERA in CAR. He is only 21 years old and I think he is another overlooked SP in the system.

Three-way trade with A's, Braves; Brewers get William Contreras
BigWoo53 replied to homer's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I am still stunned Matt Arnold was allowed to pull off this heist. Kudos to him getting involved in that deal for that kind of steal. -
Not sure how long Midds is out, but Connaughton should be back Monday. The Bucks being 11-4 without Midds and Connaughton all 15 games is a very good spot to be. This is just my opinion but sounds like PHX is looking for a 3rd team with MKE in a Crowder/Allen trade. But it wouldn't surprise me either if the Bucks want to wait for Middleton to be back. Offense right now can be an issue or rather it's nice to have Allen's shooting etc. but once the playoffs begin and as Midds gets back the offense runs through the Big 3 and need guys who can defend and multiple positions at that and Crowder fits the bill.
