    The impending Dec 1 end of the CBA adds a lot of uncertainty to the Bauers deal. If he declines it, he essentially has only 2 weeks to get a long term deal somewhere else. After that, all free agency negotiations come to a halt. That's a tight window to get a deal done and a long time to wait till he can negotiate again. Might that leads Jake's taking the bird in the hand?

    I'm hoping we only did this so that when Jake rejects it we get a compensatory pick.

    Pitching talent is lagging hitting talent in the pipeline, a switchereroo for the Brew Crew. A welcome switcheroo at that.

    Regardless of how well we've played this year, the team isn't ready to go all-in. We've been playing above our talent level. To sell the farm to bolster a bunch of overachievers would be unwise. Be patient. Stay the course. There's another wave of talent coming soon. 2027 and beyond is when the window really opens up. Don't sacrifice said talent to try and win a championship when we're not quite ready.

    Package him with someone for a Skubal rental. Or trade him straight up for Arenado. Then finding comps is someone else's trouble.

    Seems inevitable we will be dealing from a position of strength at the trade deadline. We have enough of a surplus of farm talent to do get a couple of rentals for a World Series push. But in an odd way, we sort of owe it to the prospects to trade them to places they'll have more opportunities to make a big league roster. Win-win as they say.

    Dude can't hit. Never could. Trade him before it's obvious to everyone

    Yoho is the Mat Gamel of pitching prospects.

    Um, David Hamilton isn't a viable hitter either. Neither is Cooper Pratt. Seems the Crew is rife with light-hitting SS's. Maybe therefore we stick with the best -fielding of the bunch - Joey - being that it is a position where fielding trumps hitting. now 3rd base is a different matter altogether. That's where we really have a problem.

    Or, alternatively, the Occam's Razor take might be that he's just not a good hitter.
  11. izzi
    Can he play third base? Also, just give the job to Quero, he has nothing left to prove in AAA.

    Keep him. Take as many bites at the apple as you can. You never know who is going you pan out, regardless of how good or how bad they played last year. Heck, even Turang could take a step back next season, especially if he falls in love with the longball. Baseball is weird that way. Unless your Wade Boggs.
  13. izzi
    I agree. Just afraid scouts might, too.

    Poor Isaac. After he came back from that paternity leave he wasn't the same player. Maybe the distractions of fatherhood affected him. Maybe by next season he'll be more situated in his family life and will get back to being what he was before September. That said, I thought this article was a little harsh. Lies, damn lies, and statistics as Samuel Clemons said. Collins was clutch. I have yet to see a stat for that.

    Will be missed.
