    I would be completely fine with La Stella on a 2 year deal.
  2. wibadgers23
    Crap! Forgot about the Hendriks signing. Well maybe they’re looking to put together an absolutely dominant bullpen. But yeah, a starter seems more likely at this point.
  3. wibadgers23
    Wonder if Hader for Vaughn and Heuer would work for both teams?
  4. wibadgers23
    I can get on board with that but we really need to find a way to get him to his more natural position of SS or 2B.
  5. wibadgers23
    And don’t forget about the international signings. I really like what we’ve done there the past couple of years.
  6. wibadgers23
    Woodruff and Burns aren’t going anywhere so can’t imagine who it would be on the Brewers end. Peralta? Hauser? Hader would probably make more sense but not sure if the White Sox would be after Hader after just signing Hendriks.
  7. wibadgers23
    It’s pretty obvious where Stearns is going this offseason. Just about every signing so far has been a 26ish year old former high draft pick who just hasn’t gotten it going in the big leagues yet.
  8. wibadgers23
    Wow that’s a lot of money. You could get Hader for about half of that salary and all it would cost you is a couple of top prospects.
  9. wibadgers23
    Even if it’s not Brewers related, it’s nice to see some movement in free agency. Will be interesting to see where Hand ends up now.
  10. wibadgers23
    Liam Hendriks goes to the White Sox.
  11. wibadgers23
    Can we just fast forward to mid-February already and get this offseason over with? Free agency in MLB has really become a joke.
  12. wibadgers23
    I really don’t mind the idea of trading Hiura but would rather trade him for a frontline starter. That plan does make sense though trading Hiura for a 3B and then moving Urias to 2B.

    https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bizjournals.com/milwaukee/news/2021/01/07/brewers-attanasio-closes-deal-to-sell-majority.amp.html Mark A closed a deal to sell a majority stake in his investment firm. Would this have any impact on the payroll for this upcoming year? If there was ever a year for him to dig a little bit deeper into his pockets, this would be the year with a lot of teams seemingly not interested in spending much money.
  14. wibadgers23
    This seems like a really light return for both Lindor and Carrasco. Wow. Makes me wonder what kind of offers Stearns is getting for Hader.
  15. wibadgers23
    You’re right. The Blue Jays could just sign a reliever but what if the Dodgers or Mets or White Sox swoop in and sign them first? I agree, I like the match with Toronto and as you said, they look like they are going to be aggressive.
  16. wibadgers23
    I still think the chances of a Hader trade are unlikely but I wonder if interest in him ramps up once Hand and Hendriks are off the market?
  17. wibadgers23
    Yeah if you’re a team like the Dodgers, why trade major prospects for Hader when you can just buy some pretty good relievers. They are reportedly going after Brad Hand too.
  18. wibadgers23
    Brewers are also one of the most tight lipped organizations out there so rumors hardly ever get leaked. But yeah, I hear what you’re saying.
  19. wibadgers23
    The offseason so far as been painfully quiet for all of MLB, not just the Brewers. I think it was Heyman that tweeted something to the effect that only around 30 of the 300 free agents have struck deals so far. Hopefully things start picking up here in January.
  20. wibadgers23
    I’m sure we could have but these guys rarely want to come to Milwaukee.
  21. wibadgers23
    Really hoping that San Diego and LA end up in a bidding war for Hader. That would end very well for the Brewers.
  22. wibadgers23
    And interested teams like the Padres and Dodgers systems are so deep that quantity wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing.
  23. wibadgers23
    Both Justin Smoak and Eric Thames signed with the Yomiuri Giants today. Smoak got $6 million and Thames got $1.2 million. Quite a haul for Smoak.
  24. wibadgers23
    Yeah if you can get Cronenworth that would be great - solves our 1B/3B issues. If you can get Abrams or Campusano in addition to Cronenworth, that would be fantastic. I would be all over that offer.
  25. wibadgers23
    Yeah still think Hader to the Padres makes too much sense. They have a need for relief pitching and still have most of their top prospects in tact even after all of the moves yesterday.
