    Was this the worst contract in baseball history? https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/12/angels-anthony-rendon-buyout-restructure-defer-retire.html

    Supposedly Boston’s asking price for him is very high……..you aren’t going to get 3 years of control of Duran for 1 year of Peralta I don’t think. Seems to be probably a moot point…….no reports have showed the Brewers to be involved at all in talks for him…….while many other teams have been mentioned.

    Cubs have their right handed first base platoon option

    I also feel that Collin’s lack of defensive versatility played a role in the brewers willingness to move on from him. When you are a backup outfielder they want players who can play good defense at multiple positions……….run prevention is a core pillar for them.

    I think he was being facetious in the comparison to Braun……lol

    Joey Wiemer……designated for assignment……..

    Not to mention one is a gold glove caliber right fielder and one……..is a converted infielder who to his credit became an average left fielder. As was mentioned above…….I’m not overly confident that this trade will turn out to be a home run……but I’m also not too concerned that this will be one that fans will be regretting for years to come. It’s the kind of trade the brewers routinely make.

    My guess is the Brewers evaluators liked what he did last season in AAA. Maybe he made some changes……I don’t know. ……But clearly if they thought he was going to be another Joey Ortiz with the bat they wouldn’t have signed him. Obviously doesn’t mean they will be right but let’s give them at least the slightest benefit of the doubt on a very low risk signing. It’s been reported that it’s a split contract…….if it works people will be happy if it doesn’t he will be organizational depth…….no need to over think this. Collins was a nobody when they rescued him from the Rockies……no pedigree…….we will see how he does with the Royals…….

    Well considering the track record of “ the board” in reacting to trades we should all be ecstatic right now!
