caulfield12 Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Sleepy Harold said: The Padres have to be in on Cease simply due to his comparative affordability...their #9 MiLB system and losing Wacha Lugo Snell and now Martinez from their starting/long relief core. That just leaves Musgrove and Darvish. If you don't attempt to fill out the rotation and you deal Soto...you basically have to dump Bogaerts and/or Machado as well. Hard to imagine Preller doing that...he's too stubborn. Edited November 30, 2023 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brewers never fade too much, and Cards will bounce back. Pirate likely going to be in a much more competitive year. Cubs likely to have big upgrades. Though, where they may succeed is only the cards may have a plus offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestEddy Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) This is more than Cease will make in the next two years. Edited November 30, 2023 by WestEddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the Brewers are considering a total rebuild with Woodruff and Burnes on the way out and Yelich having what is likely to be his last solid season after struggling in 2021-22 compared to recent heights...he was very good but not great in 2023. The massive power numbers are likely gone for good, though. Not to mention the loss of Counsell and some of his key staff...as well as Stearns to NYM.
