The Brewers and Indians would like to announce a trade!
The Brewers receive:
The Indians receive:
The Brewers have been after Lolo for quite some time--they like what they've read and seen of him in the minors. After exhaustive negotiations with the Indians we were finally able to make the deal happen. With that said, we didn't think to look at his salary before completing the deal--he now becomes the highest paid member of our farm system. Had we realized that beforehand we may not have made this deal, but it's nobody's fault but the GM of the Brewers. A deal is a deal. Ultimately, we think he'll be worth it though.
Best of luck to Yadier and Cole with their new team, and welcome to the Brew Crew, Lolo!
The Brewers receive:
- Lolo Sanchez, CF, PIT - $1.7 prospect
The Indians receive:
- Yadier Alvarez, SP, LAD - $0.2 prospect
- Cole Tucker, SS, PIT - $0.2 prospect
