I was watching the BBTN trade special on ESPN earlier this afternoon and they all, surprisingly, were quite high on the Brewers and said they are built to win in the playoffs because of how good their pitching is but they all also agreed that the Brewers don't have a good offense. Have they been paying any attention to their offense since they acquired Adames?
-
The Brewers have to be selling a lot of Adames jerseys.
-
We'll find out early who the Brewers will be sending down tomorrow because they'll be chewing up some innings tonight.
-
That lineup is just stacked. With no Acuna. I agree, they should be better. Fire Snitker. I grew up watching baseball in the Braves Bobby Cox era and it seemed like you could just basically pencil them in at the top of the division every single year.

Prospective trade deadline targets?

I think my biggest takeaway is that I don't think the Reds and Cardinals got any closer to us than they were before, if not farther away. So we should remain the heavy favorites for the NL Central title, which almost certainly comes with a top 2 playoff seed. -
True. Probably the easiest part of the team to patch, though.

No, believe it or not, tone isn't always obvious on the Internet, but I already did suggest that as a possibility, so...... The relief pitchers we traded for have “literally” had no chance to make it to Atlanta and join the team, seeing as they were acquired mere hours ago. There’s no need to pick up on tone. It was, quite obviously, sarcasm. Dude. I didn't know if he was telling him that the guys hadn't shown up yet in a serious response to him saying the trades hadn't worked out, or if he was going along with his sarcasm. So yes, I misinterpreted the tone.
-
Go back in time and trade him for Machado? I’m in. I know it doesn't work this way, but if I was guaranteed we'd have won the World Series that year like the Cubs did when they acquired Chapman, I'd probably still have done it.

Barring getting a few runs here in the 2nd, it wouldn't be the worst idea to just plan a short outing for Burnes and get him some rest. It is not his day.
-
The two relief pitchers have done nothing. Literally haven’t shown up. He is, as always, being sarcastic. Maybe you are too and jokes on me.
-
I'm pretty confident Cousins isn't going anywhere. That would be silly. Subtraction by addition.
-
For our sake in the playoffs, I hope the Braves don't win the East because we play like absolute dog crap against them.
-
Escobar is not off to a good start as a Brewer.
-
Maybe, but that's not really a geographical problem....just intradivision. The Cubs traded Kimbrel to a team in their own city, after all. I think it implies Scherzer more than a Cubs player.
-
Interesting. Maybe some of the players who had no-trade clauses and only wanted to go to the coast teams? Right, so basically, Scherzer.
-
I guess at some point when you're pretty set on the roster it's hard to see how certain guys would help. Scherzer sure, but he wanted to go West and had control of that. Where would Story play? Do you think he is going to outproduce Adames? I don't. Voit maybe, but does he move the needle at all over Rowdy? I don't know. I don't know who they should have gotten. Any other rotation options have to be a notable upgrade over Anderson and Lauer and Houser. Besides Scherzer, who out there was? Some bullpen depth always makes sense, and that's exactly what we did.
-
I mean we got our bat (Escobar) and a couple relievers (Curtiss, Norris) . I know some people will be disappointed and I guess I'm a little underwhelmed but it's basically the exact moves I figured would happen.
-
Quite a good reliever. Fairly expensive price, but that's reflective of a lot of years of club control here.
-
I know it's almost the deadline, but I would still bet on the side of us not being done yet.
-
Yeah kinda weird. Hader is far cheaper than Kimbrel too. White Sox really going for it I guess and were willing to dump guys that won't help right now.
