Probably available off the bench and just being eased back in since it’s a LHP on the mound anyway.
-
We will call this the “hey, what did you think of our trade deadline?” lineup.
-
Brewers fans: “Hey, Cortes should be worth something, right?” Brewers front office: “Hey, how much do we need to give for someone to take Cortes off our hands?” Man, I give up trying to figure out what is worth what.

Is Freddy Zamora worth a look in the bigs to push Ortiz a little bit? I don’t know much about him, from what I can see he profiles as your standard light hitting, slick fielding middle infielder. He’s hitting better in Nashville this year though and is getting on base at a really good clip. Bad thing is, he’s also a righty so it’s not going to be a platoon option. Just trying to see since the trade deadline has expired if there are any internal options for the bench that might be better than what we currently have. I just don’t think Pratt is ready and I don’t think pushing him will be any good for him or us.

He’s been amazing. I would have to think the other shoe has to drop at some point, I can’t see how he just became a 1.150 OPS hitter overnight, but if he even continues at .900 that’s a massive offensive upgrade from what we’ve had at 1B.

I’m not going to get too worked up over today but we’ve got to stop comparing every other move to Quinn Priester. We acquired Quinn Priester on April 7th. He has been with this team essentially the entire season. He is not “help” we acquired at the deadline. He has nothing to do with anyone else’s reinforcements that they acquired today for the rest of the season. If you want to cite Andrew Vaughn, fine. Quinn Priester was closer to an offseason acquisition than a midseason acquisition. He was a nice pickup. In April. We move on.

Brewers acquire Shelby Miller and Jordan Montgomery from Arizona
adambr2 replied to bm1090's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
He’s a free agent next year, so he won’t unless he re-signs here. I wonder if the idea is to finish his rehab here, get him into the pitching lab and see if we can sell him on a prove-it 1 year deal next year? He was obviously a solid pitcher up until last year. That’s the only way it really makes sense to me. I mean we could have just sent them cash. -
Lockridge will (hopefully) barely play. More Perkins, more Yelich in the field.
-
I know we don’t like parting with young prospects especially in a move like this, but he hadn’t shown a ton, even in rookie ball. I don’t think Quintana was in our organizational top 30 anymore. I know he’s 18. As they almost are in Rookie ball. Someone said there’s probably a 98% chance he never amounts to anything, I think that’s probably accurate. There’s only so many guys in the organization you can even get on the field. It just opens up an opportunity for the next 18 year old. It's just not that big of a deal.
-
Yeah I think I would have rather kept Cortes.
-
What about MLB stats? (Agreed about taking El Paso stats with a grain of salt). I dunno. I just don’t see much to sleep on here, not at 28.
-
I’ll concede that I wish they would have (still can for 37 more minutes!) make a minor move for an infielder or two. The bench is really weak, and they’re an injury or two away from some black holes in their lineup. They’ve got plenty of help on the way, but it’s a ways away yet.
-
To me it looks like keeping all the arms they were speculated to be considering trading (Cortes, Quintana, Henderson), is their alternative to going out and overpaying for bullpen help, and they will be relying on all these guys.
-
I really don’t want to be all-in if it involves trading Jesus Made and other prospects for a closer and a mediocre starting pitcher.
-
I wonder if Arnold is lowkey wondering if Megill and Cortes would have gotten him that same package.
-
Why was the Suarez thread locked down so fast?
adambr2 replied to TURBO's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
I think it’s just protocol that this area of the board is more for rumors/proposals and so once a trade happens on these rumors, it gets locked and discussion continues in the main MLB thread or new thread on the main page. -
Question of the week: name your trade candidate
adambr2 replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Ortiz is highly upgradable. And Pratt — he’s just not ready. I totally agree other than that, though, expect with the bullpen prices we’ve seen I don’t know if Arnold will get involved. He might turn one of our existing guys into a bullpen arm instead. -
There are professional sports teams that charge reasonable prices for their concessions and don’t overprice the crap out of them, and they’ve actually found great financial success.

The Return Timeline For Rhys Hoskins Has Been Pushed Back
adambr2 replied to Jason Wang's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Seems your injury is taking longer to heal than expected, Rhys. -
Most of the big activity happens in the last few hours on deadline day, honestly. I'd say you’re probably right, but I wouldn’t count anything out until the deadline expires. I’m pretty sure the Jonathan Schoop deal came together near the very end.
-
Independent of the first two games, of course I’m disappointed that we didn’t win and extend our division lead to 3 today. Doesn't mean that I don’t understand that it happens and even the best teams lose 60+ games a year.
-
To be fair, his bench players are Anthony Seigler and Andruw Monasterio.
-
He’s a 1 inning type guy, apparently.
-
I didn’t expect a sweep coming into the series, but having them on the ropes today, I am disappointed that we didn’t get it. Oh well, we knew it wouldn’t be easy. I just want that division title and top 2 seed badly. The thought of another 3 game series wild card exit this year is impossible to stomach.
-
2 in Wrigley would not be a great result as the Cubs would win the season tiebreaker. Need to win that series.
