The Brewers and Tigers would like to announce a trade! Brewers receive: - David Dahl, OF, COL - 19/$1 TC2
- John Gant, P, STL - 19/$1.02 TC2
Tigers receive:
- Willie Calhoun, LF, TEX - 19/$0.5 TC1
- Adrian Morejon, SP, SD - $0.2 prospect
- Michael Plassmeyer, P, TB - $0.2 prospect
- Nolan Hoffman, P, SEA - $0.2 prospect
The Brew Crew has been after Dahl for a while--up until now our attempts had failed. He will immediately fill in for Calhoun who had just been activated from the IL. He has a great hit tool and plays in hitter-friendly Coors for half of his games. He just needs to stay healthy. Gant fills an immediate need in our bullpen as we've been short one RP for quite some time. Unfortunately, he has to retain SP eligibility for the year so he'll count against our SP count even though he's pitching exclusively from the pen.
Morejon, Plassmeyer and Hoffman all have good numbers in the minors thus far, and Morejon is a top 50 prospect as well. We wish them all the luck with their new team.
Thanks to the Tigers for the talks and eventual deal. Good luck going forward.

Tigers accept. Hate losing a guy like dahl but calhoun is a good bat as well. We just hope he is commited to our team and his career. Not a dahl type player but potential and talent to be solid while also under team control like dahl. The kicker tp accepting this is the trio of pitchers received as all have the potential and been doing well this year. Need pitching depth so this helps a good bit for teams future run into what hopes to be a yearly contender for a while.
