I'd rather stay the course and keep adding to the system and just spend money. I think every single person on this board feels that way, but we all define “significant assets” differently.

I have no idea if Dayton is credible, but I don’t believe he just made that up after reading the Reddit stuff. It’s not made up. Talks are real. I’ve heard similar packages discussed by people who have had info before. With that being said, I don’t think that’s enough for Milwaukee. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caulfield12 1,853 Posted January 21 8 minutes ago, SoxBlanco said: Is Madrigal, Heuer, and Kelley considered “backing up the truck”? The Brewers don't have a pressing need for any of those players in 2021. None of them are going to be in the top five asks, which would be Vaughn, Kopech, Cease, Crochet and Lopez.

He believes it will take more than that Proposed deal. In my opinion. The risk way outweighs the reward in that situation. I understand both sides of the argument. I would rather pass.

From what I can tell, it seems they broke down and finally said OK to including Kelley thinking MIL would say OK but now MIL is trying to push for one of the big three as well and the FO is drawing the line there and saying no, so there's a standoff.
