  1. How about an even wilder choice than Rosenthal proposes? That candidate certainly would have to command respect from everyone in the clubhouse, and be able to communicate bi-lingually with the roster. Most importantly, he would have to have an intimate knowledge of the pacing of the game, particularly with respect to the handling of the pitching staff. My out-of- left-field nomination is therefore-drum roll-Yadier Molina (if he can see himself outside of the Cardinals' organization)!
  2. While I understand that many of you feel that other teams might balk at dealing for Burnes as a short-term rental, I believe owners like Steve Cohen have shown they are willing to think big-and spend big. Don't discount a substantial extension if a team such as the Mets or Phillies were to acquire Corbin. BTW, his Cy Young Award is only two years removed at present. That is a pretty solid bargaining chip! 😉
  3. Sweaty, I do like the prospect of having a solid switch-hitter in the Brewers' lineup.
  4. As I said, it was a wild suggestion. ? Thanks, wibadgers23 and Sweaty, for going easy on me. ?
  5. I like the Brewers-Orioles connection, especially if Lauer is our trading chip. Now I am going to throw out something really wild out there: an inter-divisional trade with Pittsburgh! Corbin Burnes (who the Brewers will not be able to afford long-term), Keston Hiura, Luis Urias, and one or two prospects for Bryan Reynolds and Oneil Cruz. Can you imagine how the third-base side of the infield would perform, both defensively and offensively? I think, given the cannon of an arm that Cruz has, he would adapt very easily to the hot corner (on the other hand, Adames might be willing to make the position change). The Pirates are asking a bunch for Reynolds, so they would almost certainly turn an offer like this down-except for the fact they would be gaining one of the best starting pitchers in the game. Cruz just might be an untouchable, but it sure would be nice to acquire someone who has been a real thorn in the flesh for the Brewers. I now ready myself for the oncoming missiles that are bound to come my way. ?
  6. The Hader trade was a mistake, but not the way some might think. It was the timing of the trade that was an issue for me. Had they dealt him during the winter meetings last year, his trade value would have been much higher, His performance during the latter part of his season with the Brewers lessened that value!
