JBJ is going to bounce back in Boston, won't he?

Obviously you'd have to give up a prospect to get rid of Bradley, even if you didn't have anything usable coming back. We got a very usable guy coming back. I wish it was someone other than Binelas going. He's got a long way to go, but could put up Renfroe's power numbers from a corner infielder. Hamilton is a legitimate prospect, but we have a few middle infielders who might pan out.

Interesting trade, I'm not in love with it but I feel like my track record on these deals is usually being dead wrong so I'm sure it will turn out great. :lol:

Renfroe has a .297 OBP for his career. Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill are not impressed.

Love how Stearns always seems to try to fix mistakes instead of stubbornly waiting it out and hoping for the best.

I wonder if we use the salary savings on someone else or if it will be used to offset the arbitration increases we'll see. I guess we won't know until the lockout ends, whenever that may be.

For some reason I thought JBJ's salary was higher. The "dump" won't be all that much.

It Stearns is truly a lame duck I don't really want him making deals that will affect the team after he leaves next year. We do have an actual GM.

Read on Twitter

the GM hinted they might be in the market for another FA because of the trade.

I'm hoping this is the year we finally see more of Derek Fisher. Mostly just because his name is Derek Fisher but he's got some decent pop.

I found him the most frustrating player on the team, constantly found himself in a position to drive in runs and just awful at bats. Also seemed prone to making some mistakes on the basepaths which surprised me with him.

Haudricourt is retiring. Good for him, hell of a career.

But now who is going to ask the important questions like, "who is going to play center?"

The Brewers' beat has needed to get younger and less male for years.

First person to ever block me on Twitter, and for no apparent reason, which I came to learn was the norm with this guy.

Blocked me too. As thin skinned as Woelfel if not more so. Good riddance.
