#Brewers will trade IF prospect Brett Lawrie to #Toronto for SP Shaun Marcum pending physicals. #MLB

Other prospects could possibly be on the way back as well.

This is kind of baffling, especially considering that there are rumblings of us wanting to contend now. Greinke trade incoming, perhaps?

Brett Lawrie and Matt Gamel book it lol

looks like the Greinke deal will be going down now

I hope we at least get Gordon back too.

Wow this came out of left field

Wow. Was not expecting this at all.

Let's see who is coming back. It might be leading to a Greinke deal, but who knows.

Very surprising move.

Our beat writer is saying pitching prospects but doesn't know which ones.

Interesting... And I'm not opposed to it. Shows that AA isn't unreasonably attached to these guys (like a BC has been in the past) and is willing to move guys if the price is right. Could also be a precursor to other moves pending what we receive in return.

a trade for a guy like Grienke, Upton, or Gonzales must be coming.. this doesnt make sense to me unless they really want to open a spot in the rotation for Drabek

Whoa. We knew Marcum would be shopped and the Brewers have been desperate for pitching so it's not that out of the blue. I don't know of any prime prospects on the Brewers other than Lawrie so I don't know how I feel about this at the moment. Marcum has 2 more years of arby left so he has quite a bit of value. I will miss Marcum a lot.

Some reporters are saying that its Marcum for Lawrie

Wow, we better be getting Greinke now. Regardless if we do get Greinke or not. I think we should of kept Marcum.

Ok you experts break it down. He was drafted 16th and Ive googled his name and see all kinds of praise.

Wow shocking....

Im gonna take and wait and see approach

But as of right now I lost a bit of confidence in AA

I have no idea who WiscoSportsTalk is. Our beat writer is hearing pitching prospects, I'll trust him for now.

what the.... i really liked Shaun too.....

I'm all for this trade if we get Lawrie...especially if it turns into Greinke

He was drafted right above us by the Canadian front office duo of Melvin and Ash in Milwaukee. He was drafted as a catcher but it was understood he'd probably end up somewhere else. The last I heard, he wasn't doing well at 2B so he'd be moved to 3B. Someone update if there's more info on that.

BTW, if this is just for pitchers, **** that.

Please let Odorizzi be involved.
