    As far as I'm concerned, from here on out, everything is gravy on the cake. Whatever. I understand Matt Arnold can't look at it the same way.

    Regarding Murph's comment about the Yankees, it sounded like he was talking in the past tense, about when Jake used to play for the Yankees. Could be wrong.

    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.
  11. izzi
    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.
  12. izzi
    Or, alternatively, the Occam's Razor take might be that he's just not a good hitter.
  13. izzi
    Can he play third base? Also, just give the job to Quero, he has nothing left to prove in AAA.
  14. izzi
    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.
  15. izzi
    I agree. Just afraid scouts might, too.
  16. izzi
    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.
  17. izzi
    Will be missed.

    Freddy Zamora had a good season in Nashville, and the SS could benefit from what is possibly a "curtesy exposure" to give him a clearer chance somewhere else to get a shot at the majors. Matt Wood jumps out to me as a possible loss; a catcher who can hit is always coveted.
  19. izzi
    The solution is simple, but requires bravery on the part of Pat Murphy; flip-flop Abner and Trevor. MAKE ABNER THE CLOSER. Abner's stuff is much more electric, much more difficult to hit. There is too much riding on this season to value loyalty over prudence.
  20. izzi
    Their approach with Quero is what I don't understand. At the trade deadline, I think it would've made more sense to bring him up than pay for a utility catcher (Jansen). And even in this article you downplay Quero by saying they "may go with" him next year. i don't get it. He's a top 5 prospect who has proven he has overcome his injury. He's a defensive catcher who can hit. what am I missing here?
  21. izzi
    Well that was prescient
  22. izzi
    They traded the wrong veteran pitcher. Watch tonight to see the guy they should've traded

    Thank Quintana for being an insurance policy, give him a golden watch, and send him packing. See what Cortes has to offer, but if he comes up craps, send him packing, too. Then go with the the young guns.
  24. izzi
    If we give up Adamczewski I will scream bloody murder.
  25. izzi
    I wish there was some tape of Gorman playing short!
