What do you guys think? I really like it. We gave up quite a bit but I think it'l be worth it. Huge get!

Now Cain too! What the heck is going on?

Love it!!!!!!!! I hope they can pick up a nice pitcher or two!

They had Cain originally, right?

With the over abundance of outfielders you have to believe someone (Santana, Broxton, Phillips) will be traded for pitching. Also yes, Cain is a reunion. If I remember correctly he was in the Greinke trade.

Brewers drafted Cain in 2004, and I believe only played one year for us in the Majors, and then went to the Royals.

I'm hearing rumors that Phillips and Santana could be traded for pitching.

This one floored me. Gotta be able to hiss with the big boys

With having five years with both Yelish and Cain, giving up the prospects isn't as costly I think.

Now bring in Darvish!

Don't you think Darvish would get lit up pretty good at Miller Park? I don't know, maybe for the right price.

I like both deals, though we gave up more for Yelich than most teams would have given. We DO have a logjam of talent in the OF, and it is reported that Braun and Santana are both on the block, though neither will get a ton back it seems.

with the contract I think Santana is worth more to be honest.

I like the Yelich deal, ya maybe to much but we arent far away from a division if last year told us something.

another pitcher and I think we are right in the mix!

Yeah I don't see Braun going anywhere but it seems some teams really like Santana.

There's no room left for Santana & Aguilar.

MLB trade rumors has the Brewers and Indians discussing an OF (Santana?) and __? for Danny Santana. Would love to see that.

Cubs could also be talking Schwarber for Santana with the Indians.

LOVE the Yelich trade but I wasn't super high on the Cain signing. It was a lot of money for a guy we necessarily didn't need at the moment. We could have had Yelich in CF with Braun and Santana in the corners, but if the Brewers can pull of a Santana trade and get some pitching or a 2B then it will be a great move!

Danny Santana? Do you mean Salazar?
