There's no reason he shouldn't be the opening day 2B. Not happening. Stearns is going to dance around this for 3 months, then promote him.

Meanwhile, we'll play negative value players at 2B and then be the ones to lose the lawsuit because #Brewers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Yeah, we weren't paying him $10 Million next year when there's quite a few stopgap options that will be available during free agency this year. Always a chance he could be brought back for cheaper than that too. I just pray to the baseball gods that we're not going into this season with the idea that Hernan Perez is our starting 2B. Please, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramssuperbowl99 Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 Updated offseason with what we've done so far: On 10/15/2018 at 4:13 PM, ramssuperbowl99 said: MLB Level Position Players: C - Manny Pina (3.046 years, Arb 1, ~$1.8MM) C - Erik Kratz (4.156 years, Super 2 Arb 3, $1.2MM) 1B - Jesus Aguilar (2.082 years) 1B - Eric Thames (3.063 years, $6MM) 2B - Hernan Perez (4.079, Arb 2, $2.5MM) SS - Orlando Arcia (2.047 years, 1 MiLB option remaining) SS -Tyler Saladino (3.053 years, $800k, 1 MiLB option remaining) 3B - Travis Shaw (3.088 years, Arb 1, ~$5.1MM, 2 MiLB options remaining) LF - Ryan Braun (11.129 years, $18MM, with $3MM deferred) CF - Lorenzo Cain (7.074 years, $15MM, with $1MM deferred) CF - Keon Broxton (2.038 years) RF - Christian Yelich (5.069 years, $9.75MM) RF - Domingo Santana (3.024 years, Arb 1, ~$2.0MM) Minor League Depth C - Jacob Nottingham (0.054 years, 2 MiLB options remaining) SS - Mauricio Dubon (0.000 years, 2 MiLB options remaining) OF - Tyrone Taylor (0.000 years, 3 MiLB options remaining) OF - Troy Stokes (0.000 years, 3 MiLB options remaining) MLB Level Pitchers: SP - Jhoulys Chacin (8.054 years, $6MM) SP - Chase Anderson (4.146 years, $6MM) SP - Jimmy Nelson (4.104 years, Arb 2, ~$3.7MM, 2 MiLB options remaining) SP - Zach Davies (3.020 years, Arb 1, ~$2.4MM, 2 MiLB options remaining) SP - Junior Guerra (2.155 years, 1 MiLB option remaining) HL RP - Corey Knebel (3.151 years, Arb 1, ~$4.9MM, 1 MiLB option remaining) HL RP - Jeremy Jeffress (5.104 years, $3.175MM club option) HL RP - Josh Hader (1.115 years, 2 MiLB options remaining) RP - Matt Albers (11.141 years, $2.5MM) RP - Jacob Barnes (2.098 years, 1 MiLB option remaining) RP - Brent Suter (1.161 years, 2 MiLB options remaining) RP - Brandon Woodruff (0.161 years, 1 MiLB option remaining) RP - Corbin Burnes (0.086 years, 3 MiLB options remaining) RP - Adrian Houser (0.031 years, may earn a 4th MiLB option due to Tommy John surgery) RP - Freddy Peralta (0.090 years, 2 MiLB options remaining) RP - Aaron Wilkerson (0.026 years, 2 MiLB options remaining) RP - Taylor Williams (1.026 years, 1 MiLB option remaining) Minor League Depth RP - Marcos Diplan (0.000 years, 2 MiLB options remaining) RP - Trey Supak (0.000 years, 3 MiLB options remaining) Stats and Summary Total Players: 37 17 Position Players (3 catchers, 7 IFs, 7 OFs) 20 Pitchers (2 LHPs, 18 RHPs) Guaranteed Payroll with 2019 Contracts: $66.925MM (10/25 spots) Guaranteed Payroll including Arbitration Salaries: $84.325MM (17/25 spots) Now the payroll is in much, much better shape. Amazing what clearing up $10MM from Schoop does. $84MM, or really about $90MM with a roster full of guys making the minimum, means we're in good shape to add and can easily fit in Thames, Anderson, or Davies if we want. As for the decisions themselves, the only one that is surprising to me is Cedeno. As bad as he was in the postseason, he was due to make somewhere around $1.5MM in arbitration and was decent in a really small sample (30 IP, 2.95 FIP, 3.50 xFIP). But it's not a huge loss or anything; he's a LOOGY on a team with one of the best bullpens in baseball. I expected the Brewers to tender pretty much everyone a contract, then trade guys away, so we can safely assume letting Jennings/Cedeno go means teams weren't going to give up anything for them (considering Cedeno and Jennings had each cleared waivers before, this probably shouldn't have been as that much of a surprise). Schoop was apparently widely expected to be non-tendered, with the Brewers selling him to other teams for a few months. I'll be interested to see what type of deal he gets, I think if he's willing to sign a multi-year deal he could fairly easily surpass the $10MM guarantee from arbitration if some rebuilding team wants to give him a chance to audition, then trade him away. I also think the Schoop non-tender means we're going to be more active in free agency than I would have expected. Obviously, I still want Kikuchi (despite his reported preference to play on the West Coast), but we could comfortably fit him in along and still have somewhere around $30MM to play with before we really start to hit the payroll ceiling. And with $14MM of that committed to Thames, Anderson, and Davies, there's even more flexibility. So do we go out and get a Jed Lowrie, Andrew Miller, Adam Ottavino, or Yasmani Grandal? We could afford any 2 of those guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
