Didn't you bash dubon every time his name has been mentioned for the past 3 years?

Brewers probably did fine.


He's 29, gets hit hard and doesn't really know where the ball is going.


Weren't you always the guy talking about how overrated Dubon is, though?

My sources tell me Pomerantz once stopped to get gas from a Kwik Trip in Osseo.

So are all three of these guys going to be in the Brewers bullpen? Or are Faria and/or Black going to the minors?

You can find a guy overrated and still assign a value better than...this.

My guess is Black to the minors, Faria maybe in long relief/emergency starter in the majors (might be a starter down the road), Pomeranz MLB bullpen.

Another hail mary here. Lyles, Faria, and now Pomeranz.

We're just digging in the bottom of the barrell.

Their ultimate goal has to be all bullpen arms.

Other than the Dubon trade, which I would imagine he doesn't have that great of value around the league...I'm fine with it. Rearrange the deck chairs this year and slightly buy.

Faria and maybe Black may have some use in the future.

Fantasy baseball has pretty much led me to hating all three of Lyles, Faria, and Pomeranz. Damn you Stearns.

Shopping at the dollar store but can’t expect much more with our farm system, I suppose.

That's exactly what it feels like. Seems like they're building a staff almost entirely comprised of guys who probably shouldn't pitch more than 3 innings in an outing. Let's get weird Counsell.

With Jazz Chisholm netting Zach Gallen it made me look up what Turang's been up to since A+. Yikes. Still super young, though.

Think he's going to struggle as he keeps moving up. There's just no power there to make any pitcher worry. Like Billy Hamilton, except without the 80 speed or 70 defense.

The "Brewers traded their #4 prospect for these guys?" take is going to annoy me though. Dubon is a nice story and I would've hoped for better if he stuck around, but he's probably going to be Hernan Perez.

As it stands, I think the moves we're trying to make are humorous tbh, but yes, it would be much worse if being the #4 prospect in our system actually meant something. Sadly, it does not.
