redsoxsuck05 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Oooooh I love this. I assumed the Brewers would regress pretty hard but now they're legitimately good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zips has Cain at $98M over the life of the deal, and Steamer doesn't do $ predictions, but has the same 2018 WAR projection as Zips. His no-trade protections becomes more limited as the deal goes on. It's not unreasonable at all to say "never". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would actually argue the opposite. Fowler was considerably more productive in his walk year than Cain. Fowler also didn’t get that contract in such a weak market. I really don’t like Milwaukee giving 5 years to a 32 year old who has derived a lot of his value from CF defense, but has seen that OF defense already start to decline. I figured some team would get Cain for a steal in this crappy market, not pay what the going rate for a 32 year old is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldnt that go against basic logic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing him to a guy like hunter (and a few others in that group) is silly, he doesnt have that kind of bat. He can still be a decent player if/when he loses his defensive and base running value, but youre likely getting a 1.5-2 wins out of him if we assume his bat stays above averageish. and thats a fairly large assumption as some of his offensive production is tied into his speed as well, we'll likely see his BABIP decrease as he ages.
