As much as hes struggled this year, this is a guy who has a lot of upside if he rights the ship. This is a great move by the Brew Crew.
Wish he woulda fell to my Sox in the waiver order. I’d gladly take his upside over some of our current guys.

The loss of velocity on his fastball is troubling.

This stings. I liked this guy a lot, and it sucks that the Brewers get him for nothing just so the Cubs can keep a worthless AAAA Catcher around.

I understand Joe and theo wanting a third catcher at the ml level but I have no clue why the third catcher is fed and not contreras. I understand they want him to have regular playing time once he’s in the show but why not give him the treatment they were gonna give to Schwarber and have him always catch hammel or Hendricks or something

Cubs have one of the top bullpens in baseball. It doesn’t hurt them one bit. He’s hasn’t pitched well since the shoulder issues. Edwards or Patton will be up once they decide to send Tim Federowicz down.

It better be Edwards. I don’t know how much more dominating a kid has to be in triple A to deserve a spot on the ML roster. In triple A this year he has a 2.66 in 20.1 IP, 20 Ks, and a 1.18 WHIP…… In his 5 seasons in the minors with the Rangers and Cubs he has 332.1 IP, a 2.09 ERA, a 1.04 WHIP, and 416 Ks. Give this man a uniform…… in fact give him Richard’s.

How in the world did the Reds NOT claim Ramirez? Their bullpen is one of the worst of all time and somehow a pretty good arm like Neil Ramirez couldn’t improve it? They have 9 different pitchers with a WHIP over 2.000 in 2016 including 5 that are active on the 40 man roster. That’s just silly.

Hey, man, they’re trying to set reocrds.

It makes me see red watching this guy go to the Brewers all while Clayton motherf***in Richard still has a spot on the 25 man roster.
