BigA

its on there mlb boards. anyone hearing anything? looks like its gonna be a good race for the central..

Go Cubs

 
Why would milwaukee take him? Outfield is loaded and Prince is at 1b.
they're starting Gwynn, Gross, and Jenkins today, I wouldn't exactly call that loaded. They do have Hart and Hall, but Dunn is a pretty big step up from Gross and Jenkins.

would the Reds even want any of those outfielders in return? what are the Brewers giving up here? pitching?

On July 19, 2007 Adam Dunn was traded from the last place Cincinnati Reds, to the first place Milwaukee Brewers, in exchange for Tony Gwynn Jr, Matt Wise and infield prospect. The Brewers hope Dunn can add more pop to an already respectable offense.

:rolleyes: Gwynn makes ssense since he's young and expendable if you get Dunn, who's essentially a rental now.

Wise can probably be spun off for another prospect since there are BOATLOADS of teams looking for RP.

EDIT:In otherwords its not a whole heck of a lot they gave up.

Obviously Hart is just getting a day off and Hall should return soon from injury. Jenkins/Mench have been productive... still - he's an upgrade in left if the price isn't too high.
 
considering Gwynn is hitting leadoff today for the Brewers and is already 0-1, I'd say this deal did not happen

Hall can also concievably play 2B since Weeks has been atrocious lately.

Your using wiki as your source?
It has since been removed which leads me to believe that this was a hoax.I was looking for anything that would confirm the rumor.

If a deal was imminent, Gwynn would not be playing today because he could possibly be injured. Given his dad in being inducted here this weekend, he has some time off to attend the ceremony so they could get a deal done in the coming days if they can agree on a prospect.

 
If it goes through I hope its not with Gwynn.

As to people wondering why the Brewers would do this?

We already have a guy who strikes out about as much as Dunn in Jenkins...but Dunn will walk and hit HRs far more than Jenkins and well make up for that difference.

 
I can't find anything on this even on Brewer boards.
It was fun while it lasted :angry:
It could have been leaked and they have to wait until after the game. If it's a hoax I'm dropping Big A from the Christmas Card list.
If you could post that in your original post next time that would be appreciated. :confused:
my bad..I planned on writing rumor but forgot...can I still get a christmas card? :cry:

Hell yeah, you're on my list and I checked it twice. I rarely re-post rumors but I did in this case at my #2 board but they already forgave me. This is a damn good rumor that I thought was probably true and I ended up looking a little dumb. Wasn't the first time, won't be the last.
