Article: 2023 MLB Draft Day 1 Thread
splitterpfj replied to Jeremy Nygaard's topic in MLB Draft & International Signings
The Brewers have “broken the mold” this year, moving away from the “up the middle guys.” I get it, they’re filling an organizational need, and I don’t mind that approach, but the Boeve pick definitely surprised me. -
I love this move, period. It won't surprise me if Monte Harrison has the best MLB career of the four guys Milwaukee traded, and yes, the Marlins got a ton of potential in the deal. The Brewers got a true stud, an under-appreciated talent because he doesn't hit huge HR totals, but a real talent, for five years, on a great contract. Trading that many quality prospects is always a risk, but this is a move I would make. My one issue with it, at the moment at least, is the very obvious need for a good starting pitcher. If the Brewers fill that hole, then I'll think the decision to get Yelich was incredible, and if not, it's still absolutely a move I would make.

Whatever the results of this trade, it’s a bold move, and I love the effort. If you love it, then you see what I see in Yelich. If you hate it, then you see what I see in those kids. I won’t be surprised if both points of view are proven to be valid.
