Grienke to BREWERS

Former Cy Young Award winner Zack Greinke has been traded to the Milwaukee Brewers, sources told ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney on Sunday morning.
In the deal, the Brewers would reportedly send the Royals outfielder Lorenzo Cain, shortstop Alcides Escobar and prospect pitchers Jake Odorizzi and Jeremy Jeffress for Greinke, 10-14 with a 4.17 ERA in 2010 with the Royals after winning the 2009 Cy Young.
The Brewers were expected to receive another major leaguer in the deal. Jim Breem of the blog "Bernie's Crew" reported that player to be shortstop Yuniesky Betancourt.

A good spot for him

dammit

As long as those Phillies are still in the NL, I don't forsee the Brewers going anywhere. Just like the Seahags, you can switch leagues, but you will still always suck.

Jerry Crasnick said on ESPN that people think it's a little light for the Royals. Hearing him try not to snicker while saying it was sickening.

So... is this a good haul?

Deez is going to blow a ****ing gasket.

YES!!!!

Congrats, Milwaukee. Christmas came early and you fleeced the dumbest GM in baseball. I take solace only in the fact that you'll have to listen to bullshit about how "the numbers don't tell the whole story" about Betancourt. I hope that mother****er costs you 3 runs per game when Greinke pitches.

In exchange for an ace, we received:
1. One legit pitching prospect.
2. A player who cannot hit and is supposed to be a plus defender, but who inexplicably couldn't field for shit last year.
3. A player who cannot hit.
4. A pitcher who is one strike away from being out of baseball.

Baird is in Boston laughing at this return.

But the Minors are loaded!!!

**** the royal. Hope they set a record for losses. Its like the Beltran deal all over again. Give up a star for some bullshit. **** you Dayton Moore and **** you David Glass. I hope you both get ****ed in the ass by rusty bayonets.

Wow, Moore really held out for the best possible return, didn't he?

As happy as I am to get Greinke, I do hate losing Escobar and Cain. Escobar just had a bad year last year (like Greinke). He'll be fine. Cain was really good after being called up last year. So much so that many around here considered him untouchable.

nice job Dayton. You fuck! You HAVE to be kidding me?
