  1. That would be phenomenal to give up nothing and get something pretty great. Peguero Payamps and Perkins, if I have to be the one to tell you, doesn’t equal Casas in the slightest.
  2. The people you are willing to give for Lowe makes me happy we haven’t traded for Lowe.
  3. I can’t fathom option 2 and 3 not being an improvement if the team would ride one of them through the season. I hope Bauers is viewed as AAA depth and not the front runner for the 26th man roster spot. The deal hopefully is worded such that he will play aaa and be called up when needed.(knowing he will).
  4. Ok let’s talk about Rodgers some more and not about not liking 100 percent of every idea I have. Not 95 percent but 100 percent while not starting any threads or offering names of guys you like. Any other posts on this thread should be on Rodgers as that’s who I wanted to discuss here. While not a huge improvement maybe, we might win one game more having Rodgers rather than Monstatio and that might be what is needed to win the central. While yes I agree we need help at SS/3B with an above average starter so that Durbin can start out as a utility guy, we might not find that guy or have the money and so a lesser incremental improvement (Rodgers over Monasario) might be unfortunately our best hope of getting better.
  5. Please elaborate on this and throw some positions and names out so that I can respond to your ideas in the same way that you respond to mine. Nah, you aren’t up for that though.
  6. I am intrigued by anyone I feel is an upgrade to our roster, and I believe him to be better than Monasario. And Red, this is a transaction proposal forum. Where people can throw out any idea and name they wish just to discuss. I feel you should hang at the major league forum which is actual news and happenings. I don’t think this one is for you . But do as you wish.
  7. I think the bigger thing is finding the kevorkah that we seem to have with random relievers and figure out the right infielder to add. Moncada and Polanco have some potential. Hopefully we smartly decide if either is worth a lesser deal or not but both could be a big hit “potentially” in our system.
  8. He has some things going for him and some against. Would he be a guy we might want to add to our infield mix. Color me intrigued if nothing more…
  9. When we sent 7+ million after new year for Sanchez and then 7+ for Junis, I’d hope we can get necessary affordable Yoan and Polanco for under 10-12 mil.
  10. I would absolutely do 1/7 and in fact add in the ability for it to be 1/10 if he reaches 500 plate appearances. Or 1/7 and a player option for 2026 at 10 million if he reaches 550 plate appearances.
  11. Good article. Moncada was my most wanted free agent coming into free agency and he remains that. Good clubhouse guy and good defensively at third. People on this site don’t really have interest in him though which is why you haven’t gotten responses. But he and/or Jorge Polanco would be the ideal guys to add to our infield (with Hoskins, Durbin, Turang, Ortiz the other four). I’d love to start Moncada at third with Ortiz moving to short. Polanco becomes our experienced utility man and Durbin our younger higher upside one with speed and better defense than Polanco. Guessing Polanco or Moncada could play some first when Hoskins sits or DH’s too so Bauers can stay in AAA til injury. This would be my brewer infield plan anyway (Dunn starts in AAA too).
  12. Well we shouldn’t trade Chourio, I’d be open to listening to a “can’t say no” offer someone has for him. But this Chourio mention you have is hyperbole. Not happening nor should it. I’m done arguing with the “holier than thous” though. Go brew crew.
  13. I provide a lot more than Bigred and Turbo. You guys are aggressively against most any proposal. You two should be timeout’ed before me. Id love to see Big Red or Turbo bring up a topic idea of a move the brewers should make on their own rather than ridicule everything someone proposes. Won’t happen though I reckon….
  14. I like to troll Turboriffic as much as you like to dislike everything I say. Fun for me dawg!
  15. Just dfa’d by dodgers and former top prospect. Would be great to add to the catching room especially if we move to Quero and deal Contreras let’s say next off season. I imagine he gets dealt for a lottery pitcher in rookie or low a ball rather than outright claimed.
  16. Casas Mayer and Giolito for Contreras Civale and Hoskins would you say no to?
  17. Is now the time to maximize value on a trade for Contreras? Haase sure looked good when given a chance and Quero is on the doorstep assuming his health is looking good. William I’m guessing has massive value on the trade market and we should be able to be quite strong at catcher anyway. For the right package, should we float his name out there?
  18. He means Contreras
  19. I would be ok with that deal but would rather explore a Contreras/Hoskins for Casas/Mayer/Giolito type deal. Maybe we need to add a pitcher like Civale or Payamps. Id be ok with Haase getting a shot if we could do this deal and Quero could be ready quickly to help out a month or two into the season. Boston could probably meet William’s extension price too.
  20. I thought when Levonas didn’t sign that we had extra money and were begging some guys we drafted that were maybe planning on going back to college to take it? Maybe I remembered wrongly.
  21. If some of these remaining guys with draft compensation tied to them are finding a tougher market than expected, is this the year to try and sign one given we have so many picks and would still have a strong draft if we lose a pick? I’m thinking Santander would be perfect for us and even a guy like Pivetta on a 3-4 year deal that we can handle would really help this team. If teams are shying away from a few of these guys due in part to the draft compensation tied to them, we might be able to sign one at a price we kinda like. I’m just bringing up these two names but really any of the guys tied to compensation id be interested in. On a secondary note that maybe isn’t for this particular forum, we get draft pool money based on how many picks we have, correct? And if we don’t for example sign our own second round pick this draft, we get it back in 2026 correct? If the answer to both of these is yes as I think it is, would it not be wise to draft an unsignable guy with our second round pick since we will have so much draft pool money and really go after high end guys with all our other top 3 round picks since draft pool money doesn’t change and we can essentially “bank” (in this scenario our own second round pick) for 2026? Seems like a really smart strategy to me but maybe not. Thoughts?
  22. I like the Casas idea. Payamps the way he’s pitched the last two years should appeal to most all teams but the clear headliner headed out is Frelick (now officially a gold glover and Boston born). I could see him thrive in Boston and be a fan favorite there. The only hiccup is they maybe would want Hoskins coming back but not his salary, so maybe send Giolito our way. Casas/Giolito to Brewers Hoskins/Payamps/Frelick to Red Sox Thoughts?
  23. Just figure it’d be fun to do a poll of sorts of whom the brewers would prefer to join the club of the three if you HAVE to pick one and the price is one year at the same dollar amount. Whom do you personally prefer of the three for the 2025 season?
  24. To people despising it, Moncada is the one infield move I hope we make….
  25. Mark has tons more money than yall think. We don’t ever ever ever need to shed salary from the contracts we dish out. Blasphemy and this idea in particular would be bad for the 25 brewers.
