  1. They are just chasing way too much and hitting nothing squarely. Shaw has me quite worried. I did not expect his discipline to be so bad and he has hardly any hard contact. The offense has been ugly and bailed out by a lot of no man's land popups.
  2. I think you try to lock in surplus value wherever you can. The Brewers are giving that contract to a SS who hasn't hit yet or played MLB because they believe in his floor and if the bat breaks out they have a star SS locked up dirt cheap throughout his athletic prime. Alcantara fits that mold. I think he has a really good floor; hes always gotten high marks for his defense and hes always hit a little above average. Hes had just a little taste, no real success, is out of options after this year and we have 2 COF potentialy leaving. I think it makes a little sense to take a slight gamble on his bat breaking out. I see a 3 win player, maybe similar to Happ in a couple years.
  3. If they dont plan on trying to bring Happ or Seiya back I'd offer Alcantara like 8/50 after the year and plan on him being a really good RF throughout his prime years.
  4. Griffin gets 9/140 from Pittsburgh, daaaamn
  5. Unsurprisingly Jose hit a lot of gbs as a prospect. He really came into his own at the MLB level when Launch Angle gained prominence. One can dream...
  6. Or maybe the other superstar with his namesake?
  7. Of course the Brewers have some 21 y/o 5'7 45 FV dude having a power breakout at AAA
  8. Why don't they have Kevin's EV/LA?
  9. I mean theres no talent left on the team and this is, good, even though they have little chance of getting a good pick anyway. Not sure why you even bother checking.
  10. I commend them for not giving up easily Chicago Bears' appeal of compensatory picks ruling still alive https://share.google/G9qmtt3yarMI825Aw
  11. The lineup will be fine. Right now half of it sucks fat ass.
  12. Nico is hitting the ball pretty hard so far. I think its the feet. Hes finally planting and driving rather than airwalking.
  13. Mo has to improve in several areas, obviously, but it seems like he really struggles with changeups. I like that he's trying to be a little less swing happy though.
  14. Frondell scored his first goal. Averaging 1 ppg.
  15. Swung at a first pitch slider, completely center-cut, in the penultimate moment of the game tonight, where we actually had a couple runners on, and hit it 82 mph with a 44 LA. Like what the hell. His contact is so bad.
  16. Should have forced his resignation a decade ago. This is a joke. Hes clearly not even looking at the play. https://x.com/i/status/2039158471313018918
  17. Shaw's contact quality has been totally atrocious. Starting to get pretty concerned.
  18. I dont know the kid but I wish him all the worst
