Jose Abreu Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 06:57 PM) I'm really not a McMahon fan to be honest. His AAA stats scream outlier to me and he's never really been that good otherwise. From a pure talent standpoint, I'd argue Pint is the best prospect in the deal. From a pure talent standpoint, yes. But aside from his dismal 2016 season, McMahon has always been solid. This year, of course, he has taken a great leap forward, but I don't think it's a fluke.

iamshack Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 04:57 PM) So if it's Brewers, package ideas? -Brinson seems like a must - Gatewood - Woodruff That seems a bit sparse to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just going off idea of them getting top 30 bat while also being a package that might be disappointing. Something to keep in mind is the Brewers prospects have sucked this year for the most part (not Brinson) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Rob Young @RobertHYoung We are in full blown ? mode on Q. I'm keeping an eye on Lewis Brinson from MIL, Ozzie Albies/Ronald Acuna from ATL, and Kyle Tucker from HOU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 06:58 PM) Plus McMahon is probably more of a 1B than a 3B anyway, so that further diminishes his value. I read something today about him potentially being athletic enough to play 2B, but I doubt that would be pretty, especially for a team that should/does value infield defense.

daggins Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I love Brinson, but if he's coming, then the secondary pieces will probably be underwhelming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwill Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 (edited) QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 06:53 PM) Brian Bilek @BrianBilek_ Mulitple teams have been involved in the talks for Quintana: MIL, ATL, HOU, NY, COL & more I'm sure. My opinion/guess: #Brewers. If this is true that all of these teams are in on Quintana that is only a really great thing. I can't see Hahn giving Hostetler the object of getting hitter who don't strikeout often in the draft then turn around and trade for Corey Ray as a headliner for his greatest asset. I think their must be a good idea that Brinson is involved. It would not surprise me if Hader is the second piece with the Brewers believing he is more of a reliever than a starter. I still believe the Yankees have to be in on this as they had talks in the winter and are up against that 40 man crunch. They could get a deal done without Frazier or Torres.
