Very good haul for the Brewers

 

[Giantmetfan07]

Didn't get Gallo? ahaha. Wow. 

 

[BrewCrewFan]

Jeffress/Lucroy for Brinson and Ortiz?
 
Seems really light 

 

[Phil The Thrill]

That's a great haul. #2 and #3 prospects in a deep farm system.

This wedding is horseshit

In before Lucroy declines trade due to the Texas heat

 

[Giantmetfan07]

I don't think they're on his 8-team NTC.

Oh, I wasn't sure where they ranked in their system. That's a pretty good return. 

 

[Phil The Thrill]

I'd prefer that haul over Gallo imo

The Rangers said last year that they wouldn't deal Brinson unless if it was for someone like Sale.
 
He hit .332 20 HR, and 18 SB in 100 G last year. He's been hurt this year and has struggled a little bit in AA.
 
Ortiz is the Rangers best pitching prospect. 

 

[Senators26]

I would assume there was no agreement to drop the option since he couldn't block the trade anyways. Correct?

 

[videofreak8]

Yeah. He had zero leverage.

The Brewers added two nice prospects, but the deal overall as light. Those two for Lucroy is fine, but they needed to added in one more legit (Gallo) player with Jeremy heading to Texas as well.

Rosenthal is reporting that the 3rd piece to the trade is "significant" and is comparable to Brinson/Ortiz. Rangers gave a list to the Brewers to pick from and will announce at the end of the minor league season.
 
They ran out of time completing the deal.

Oh good. I hope it is Ronald Guzman, he has some serious potential, and could be the Brewers future 1B. Just looking now, the Brewers have a very stacked system now. Them and the Yankees did amazing work.
