Depends who the other two prospects were that the Brewers would have gotten. Puig is just two years removed from having back to back 5 WAR seasons, and he's only 25. Moving into Miller Park should only improve his numbers, and I could see him becoming that type of player again.
But for me...
Puig/Braun trade was about 20 mins away from getting done and braun stayed at MP until midnight thinking a deal was going to get done
Both sides also vowed to come back to the deal in the off season and it's likely a deal gets done in the winter
Supposedly the money part was all figured out...
Hmm
Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports and MLB Network was first to report that the Brewers had claimed Puig on revocable trade waivers and engaged the Dodgers in trade talks. According to a source, one scenario would have netted the Brewers Puig and two prospects along with pitcher Brandon McCarthy...
These rankings are stupid because we have people like bosox who said it's just based on this year and now we have other people saying it's not
No consistency in how people vote
