And if we are talking worst trades, the one we did to the Brewers in the Greinke deal is far worse for them than what happened to us. We got one of the best young shortstops in the league, a potential legit CF starter, and a pitcher in Odo with ace potential. Brewers got Greinke for a few years to chase a ring before Fielder bolted. Oh and we unloaded Yuni on them. They took one step forward and two steps back. What happened to them in that deal is much worse than what happened to us in the Sanchez deal IMO.
Yeah right. Greinke was 16-6 with them last year and helped get Milwaukee to the postseason. I understand he's a FA after this season but getting to the playoffs is the goal.

If anything the Brewers have already won that trade.

I understand that Escobar is a good player but I don't see him in any All Star Games yet...Cain is completely unproven who can't stay healthy....Odorizzi from all accounts is NOT an ace, more like a 3rd starter...and Jeffress or whoever sucks.
