Do you want a pick that may or may not turn into anything years down the road or do you want to win games and make a run at a world series now when the window is open?

Pleasantly surprised Anderson is not in the rotation.

When was the last time the Brewers had a rotation where 4 of the 5 guys have never pitched for another big league team? Has to be decades considering how bad they have been developing home grown pitching.

Maybe I'm reading too much into the tone of that tweet that sounds like we should prepare to not see Knebel this season.

I'm 98% mentally prepared to not see Knebel this season. I guess better now than right before postseason play? Trying to find a silver lining.

I'm not feeling too good about that.

Yeah that's a TJ coming either now or soon if he tries to pitch with it for a while. ****

Same issue Keston had I believe. But he doesn’t pitch, obviously

I assume the only reason you would go for a 2nd opinion is if the first guy recommends surgery.

For sure, this makes a huge difference now because they can sign one of the best relievers of all time to replace him still if they so choose.

As of 8:09 via MLBtraderumors

"GM David Stearns says the team still isn’t sure how to label the damage to Knebel’s UCL, as Haudricourt tweets. But the organization “know[s] it’s damaged to some extent.”
