There's no way we settled with Corbin with the intent of paying him that money lol

Well I was wrong. We signed Hoskins. We're gonna half *** try to win and get nothing but a comp pick for Burnes lol.

The new Herb Kohl Bucks.

At least the Packers, Bucks and Badgers seem to have management that want to compete for titles.

I just think Attanasio is prepping to sell. He doesn't give a **** about what happens post Burnes. He wants to push the revenue as high as possible to cook the books and sell at peak value with the new stadium deal.

Hope we parlay this into an Adames trade as well so it clears the SS spot for Ortiz. Certainly not a huge haul, but DL looks like the kind of arm that the pitching lab drools over, Ortiz can be the SS and we get essentially a tail end first rounder that also will add to the bonus pool. Better than finishing as a wild card and getting just a comp pick.

It's underwhelming but it's whatever. Ortiz needs to hit for some pop. He has high exit velos but doesn't lift the baseball and he's a great SS in the field. Hall has electric stuff but the control of a sex addict in a room full of naked women. We'll see what happens.

I don’t hate the deal, it needed to happen but still sad because realizing what we could’ve had as a team a few years ago is extremely disheartening. 
A deal had to happen as there was no chance burnes would’ve resigned but I’m still pissed off that we fought him in arb 2 years ago after his cy year for a few hundred k. This team will never go anywhere with mark, and it’s disappointing. 

I agree on trading willy, great clubhouse guy but he does more damage then good. but then again, looking at his WAR…
