@Emily_Krivograd Hi Emily, sent you a DM if you have a chance to take a look at it. Thanks!

@nut_history Underrated:

@CyrtHogg Not matching any offer would be short-sighted. CC is one of the reasons Attanasio and company have gotten away with fielding an average payroll for the last couple of years.

@JayCuda The entire tournament is the postseason. Individual games are playoff games

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@Dom_Cotroneo Dansby Swanson needs to catch that ball. Lets it drop right in front of him when a catch ends the game.

@ByJackStern The best part of this video is Craig sprinting to the bullpen phone before the ball even leaves the infield

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@AdamMcCalvy Is this the first ever Brewer from Brazil?

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@CyrtHogg When’s the last time the Brewers had a Brazilian player? This the first ever?

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@SnellSZN Not buying it tbh. Doesn’t really make sense for what the Brewers are trying to do unless they were planning to re-flip him in the winter or they’re going to ride out the Burnes/Woodruff contracts.

@YankeeWRLD Neither one is a top 100 prospect though

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@immaculategrid Can you change it back to where rate stats don’t have to be qualified please

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@CyrtHogg Wearing my Jeff Bianchi shirsey today. Can’t be a coincidence

@Prudentissimus2 @ReviewngTheBrew I’d love to have Renfroe’s bat back in the lineup don’t get me wrong. And if you’re not sold on the prospects it definitely feels worse.

Just don’t think this is the biggest failure of the offseason from the Brewers front office.

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@Prudentissimus2 @ReviewngTheBrew I’m sure they wanted to save some money if they thought we could get similar OF production from some combination of GM/JW/BA/Miller etc. No doubt.

Just think before GM/Urias injuries forced BA to 3B and JW to CF on an everyday basis they weren’t too far off.

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@Prudentissimus2 @ReviewngTheBrew Depends if you’re looking at fWAR or bWAR I guess. Renfroe grades out poorly in DRS, which is factored into bWAR but not fWAR.

I agree with you JWs value has been on defense. Just think pre-injuries Brewers did an OK job filling OF spots. Still early to judge pitching prospects

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@ReviewngTheBrew His xERA was over 7 coming in though. He had gotten really lucky in a couple outings.

Still a guy that hasn’t pitched above AA before this year. Need to continue to get him work.

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@Shawn_Spradling Madison Bumgarner in the playoffs. Good regular season guy but on a different level in October

[Jacob Swanson @JacobSwansonn]

@BrewersRaptor Gonzales has actually allowed a higher avg in his career to lefties (OPS lower but still).

If there was ever a day to keep Rowdy and Yelich out there with an off day tomorrow today might’ve been the day but in CC we trust.

@JomboyMedia If you played MLB MVP 05 you knew this instantly
