    Adames should be dealt if we get the return we want. That is knowing of course we're not going to get a ton being there is only one year of control. That one year of control is the key reason to move him and as long as the return is noticeably better than the comp pick we'd get make the trade. I believe we can still compete this year without him and especially so if we can add a true MLB quality starting pitcher. You ONLY move Williams if you can get a ton for him. an over value type return. Period.

    When I saw this article I thought anyone is for sale for the right comp. This would be the right comp. Get a huge return like the one mentioned or stay with him for now.
  3. Trax
    I hope the writer is correct when he ends with something bigger may be afoot. I'm thinking (hoping) that too. That would be in terms of signing an ace starting pitcher, spending some real money. Snell or Montgomery? Likely not, but someone who is a MLB starting pitcher without any of the doubt we have with so many others.
  4. Trax
    No. Turang comes with team control and still is under development, The only way you move him is for an obvious over value offer which we won't get. We absolutely need to move Adames if we get a fair comp offer and now. If we don't get that offer keep him on and revisit it May-July. It will be a more must move him by then and for less than we should get now.

    This trade was about what I expected for Burnes, but I too was hopeful for more and Mayo was on my radar. Other teams were sniffing at Burnes too and apparently this was the best offer the Brewers could get. I would agree a goodly return but far from top end potential. It is Adamas's turn and time is running out. By trade or signing I would like to see a legitimate MLB starter added. I doubt Adamas brings that but here is where we could add a soon to be future power bat to the lineup. 3B/1B preferably. They are out there.

    Good signing, but hopefully we're not done looking for a true starting quality pitcher. Junis is far better out of the pen.
  7. Trax
    Adames turned down an extension offer last year. Adames is NOT the heart and soul of this team, he is a short timer. Unless they get a whale of an offer (which they won't) it makes no sense to trade Turang. It makes complete sense to trade Adames. He will be traded very soon, or his trade will be re-visited in May-July. Better for everyone if it's now.
  8. Trax
    I would question that Adamas could bring the return you mention, I'd be all for it. I'd be all for it with either if so. If the right return can be had Adamas needs to be moved now.
  9. Trax
    I guess it all comes down to value for Adames. I believe the return for Burnes was well worth it. We got is worth based on 1 year of control. I would trade Adamas if we could get his worth, keep him for now otherwise. I believe some team will step up, and then we need to move him. The Brewers need to bring in a starting caliber pitcher. I'd love to see Snell or Montgomery, but they must bring in a quality starter of some kind. A Houser type maybe if they can't swing a long term contract with one of the above mentioned. Either thru trade or whatever FA may still be out there.

    Brewers front office has done all they can do with the salary constraints they have. It is absolutely pathetic that teams like the Dodgers, Yankees, Mets and several others can do. If you want to fix MLB then mandate a hard cap like the NFL has. That ship has sailed. When TV viewership is strictly pay for streaming I will have watched my last game.
  11. Trax
    Wow, imagine it if we could bring in Chapman. My fear is we'll be just hanging on by a thread in July for contention so won't deal Burnes or Adames at all.
  12. Trax
    Hoskins gives us a nice bridge into this year and possibly the next. A lineup changer for sure. The team still needs to improve its hitting beyond this, and I'm still waiting for that improvement to be brought in with a Burnes trade. Looking unlikely for the right now. If he's moved in July it could be for not ready prospects. I really like a trade with Baltimore right now bringing us a young bat at 3rd who is ready but blocked, but it takes two to tango. Sometimes it takes 3.
  13. Trax
    It's a fine line between framing and catcher interference. Contreras crossed that line a couple times last year. No doubt Haase can improve and he will have limited chances to show it.
  14. Trax
    I want to see Turang as the starting SS, because I hope we can get a load for Adames now. If not, for sure 2nd base. I believe the bat can improve soon, and the D is spectacular.
  15. Trax
    I would not LOOK to move any of these young cheap controllable guys, but of course their names can come up in trade talks. If we truly are going to start the season with both Burnes and Adames it's likely we'll start it with them on board too.
  16. Trax
    IF the Brewers can get a loaded enough offer they really need to move Burnes before the start of the season. Moving Adames in the same scenario would be nice, but more important with Burnes. But ONLY if we get the return. Otherwise we revisit this in May with an eye on July.
  17. Trax
    For now unless we add a sure thing Black can likely start at 3rd now. Wilken is a year or two out for that shot. Black might have a long term future at a different position but can certainly cover 3rd for us better than any other option we have at the moment.
  18. Trax
    Don't trade the farm for any one player, especially with 2 years of control or less. Small market teams need to be always looking to improve any way they can but also always to be looking to trade FOR farm.
  19. Trax
    The whole off season hinges on two names. Burnes and Adames.
  20. Trax
    The problem isn't with the owner. The problem is with MLB as a whole. Good ol Bud Selig sold the small market teams out to the power union and the big market owners, all for a chance to sit on their lap and collect millions for himself. The Angels make more money from TV contracts before selling 1 ticket or hot dog than the Brewers do from TV contracts, parking, concessions, ticket sales and anything else they can do. It is not a fair playing field. No owner is going to spend to create a loss, but when you have teams like the Yankees and Mets and Dodgers etc etc able to spend 2 times or more because of this disparity you have the mess we have today in MLB. The NFL has shown the right path with hard caps and parity being the rule of the land. Blame Bud Selig, not our owner. Thanks Bud!

    I'd love to see him back, some team will make it happen with a 2 or 3 year deal. The only way a team like the Brewers can do it is with a team favorable deal. It is possible.
  22. Trax
    Please, just no.
  23. Trax
    It is best for all if the Brewers can get a fair return now for Burnes, and Adames. If you can't then by all means start the season with them, but trade them now if the compensation is enough to warrant it.
  24. Trax
    Horrible return for Burnes and the Twins will not be players for him.
  25. Trax
    Agreed. My guess is Yelich told them to forget it about a move to 1st, otherwise it makes perfect sense if he could play there. We have the young guns to fill the outfield, I'd just DH Yelly and find a right handed power bat to come off the bench. Among a number of other moves they need to make for the now and future.......
