Yelich to the Brewers, per Rosenthal.
Better cost an arm and a leg if they wanted Acuna.
Brewers got him.
Let's see the cost better be Brinson+
Im not a big fan of Brinson and he'll be 24 in May
Wow, I reckon that means Cain is even more likely to sign with Texas.
Me either but others are, they say he's a breakout prospect.
Not sure yet, but it is more difficult to get a good deal inside the division....
Get off my lawn!
Acuna is much better than Brinson IMO. I am not sold on Brinson reaching his potential like I am with Acuna (and Acuna's potential is better either way).
Lewis Brinson and Isan Diaz are two prospects headlining the deal, per Jon Heyman of Fan Rag (via Twitter).
The deal is official, with outfielder Monte Harrison and righty Jordan Yamamoto rounding out the package.

Monte Harrison and Jordan Yamamoto are the other two.
1, 6, 14, and not listed are the ranks on MLB.com on Brewers site.
If thats all it cost, then AA messed up.
Although it may have cost more to get him since Braves are a division rival.
Great trade by the Brewers IMO. Now they are even more likely to trade an outfielder with Yelich in the fold.
Why. Wouldn’t it be the Marlins messed up
Coppy
And they demanded acuna from us? Pfft...this package is very light
If they were insisting on Acuna headlining any deal with us then AA was wise to say no IMO. This seems more the Marlins viewing Brinson as close to Acuna in value.

Pipeline isn’t updated. Baseball America has them as 1, 5 and 9 in their system. That’s a good haul.
That's disappointing.
I imagine pitching prospects aren't nearly as highly valued as position prospects, though.
Maybe we can get a Brewers OF cheaper now.
