He also hired Stearns to oversee a behemoth. But Stearns’ history in Milwaukee does not suggest he oversaw a teeming farm system.
Steve Cohen hired David Stearns for the big picture. The Mets owner has not disguised his ambitions: He wants to be the Dodgers East.
But it is difficult to see a great haul if you are just looking at what the Brewers had in the majors in 2023. Remember that the players listed here might have played elsewhere in 2023, but they were originally Brewers. And from that group, David Fry was the only original Brewer who played in 2023 at catcher — and he started just eight games behind the plate. Fry and Weston Wilson combined for eight innings at third base. The starting rotation could not be completed even if you included Rasmussen with Corbin Burnes, Reese Olson and Brandon Woodruff .
But it remains tougher to compete when, for example, your division rivals are outdoing you in amateur talent accumulation. Devin Williams would close, and the rest of the bullpen would be Suter, Uribe, Lucas Erceg, Jorge Lopez, Nick Ramirez, Peter Strzelecki and Caleb Thielbar.Let’s take this in a bit of a different direction this week. What I have been wondering for some reason is who has a better shot to ultimately be voted into the Hall of Fame: Aaron Judge or Shohei Ohtani?Aaron Judge would seem to be on a clear path to Cooperstown, assuming his health allows him to keep working his way toward 500 homers.
Judge is locked in with the Yankees, having signed a nine-year, $360 million contract last offseason. Both are special. Both might ultimately reach Cooperstown. But if you had to pick one or the other for the best chance, who would it be? why I thought Woodruff’s shoulder injury, which could keep him out all of next season, could further motivate the Brewers to trade Burnes before he begins his walk year in 2024. The short version: It will be much harder to contend without Woodruff.
I used Busch and Sheehan for this exercise. But it could be a position player and a pitcher with upside and lots of control — for example, Miguel Vargas and Ryan Pepiot or Andy Pages and Gavin Stone or … well, you get the point. The Dodgers could trade and still have plenty left. The Brewers will have their preferences, and it is possible Burnes is so in demand that it necessitates a three- or four-player package and Busch/Sheehan is just an appetizer.
