Brewers sign Justin Wilson

Likely won’t be available until late in the year but the 2024 club option is intriguing if he bounces back well from TJ. 

[BlazingGunz]

Another guy for the 60 day il

He looks super happy. Similar to the rosenthal trade without having to give up a prospect. 

[Brock Beauchamp]

I mean, sure, why not?

Also, why?

Only half joking…

[wibadgers23]

At least we didn’t have to give up a prospect this time.

Speaking of Rosenthal, has he signed with anyone?  If not, we should kick the tires so we feel like we got something in our trade.

$3.35 million for ~1.4 seasons probably looks attractive compared to whatever Smith, Hand and Britton are asking for:

- $850k guaranteed in 2023
- $2.5m club option for 2024 OR $150k buyout

Now we know what they planned on doing with the cash saved from the Burnes contract. Seriously though we could use another lefty in the pen, if he's healthy he's not a bad option for that price.

As an upside play with a chance to be a value next season based on the contracts that were given out, I like it. I do wish, though, that they had done something else to raise the floor of the bullpen, though, even acknowledging that bullpen performance is notoriously volatile.

Other than 2021, he has pretty decent stats. I like the creativity on this one.

Yes making a deadline addition in Fed
