the rangers also get a PTBNL... but all said, the breweres got a pretty good deal for Lee..hope the Rangers have fun resigning Lee at the end of the year..
p.s. Rangers need pitching not hitting. lol
That is true, but right now there is no pitching available that will help the Rangers much. The only pitching that will really help the Rangers down the stretch is if Adam Eaton can pitch to his potential, and they don't have to give up any top pitching prospects for him like they would for guys like Livan Hernandez, Freddie Garcia, or Jason Westbrook.Originally Posted by Reds_fan_4_life

I guess we'll find out tonight how good this trade actually is...
you will when the Reds win b/c a big offensive piece is missing now! lol
I like the deal for the Brewers. THis makes them younger, better, and is by no means a white flag trade.

They don't really get that much younger.
Mench-28/ Lee-30
Nix-25/ Cruz-26
Cordero-31/ Whoever else the Rangers get will probably be younger than 31
They definately got good value out of him though considering he was probably not going to resign withh Milwaukee. I just hope the Rangers can resign him now.

The PTBNL is no longer going to the Rangers, it goes to the Brewers21 year old A baller Julian Cordero.

Yep the Brew Crew is now even younger and even better. This team has been quoted as "will be nasty real soon." Well, there time is here as the young studs are steping it up and the new guys on the block will help immensly. Nice trade.
Hey Molina... that is not fair, you guys got Lee, but we didn't get Young or Blalock... Hahahahahaha..... That was a little joke when I first logged on about Lee-Koskie for Young-Blalock or something like that.....
Anyways.... As of right now, I am satisfied with the trade..... There is a lot of what if's with the Brewers returns....... Nix staying healthy........ Mench proving he is worth being an everyday player and staying productive, and if Cordero turning things around and maybe having him and Turnbow (when he gets his act together) being a loaded tail end of the bullpen...... I just hope at least one, if not both of those two, can get their acts together and dominate and maybe push each other into becoming the primary closer....
We will see!!!!!
This trade also allows us to possibly hang around the wild-card palyoff chase and give the youngster some valuable experience for YEARS to come...............
GO BREWERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So many people keep saying Cordero needs to get it together and get back on track. Read this that I posted in another thread:
I don't know why everyone keeps saying Cordero needs to get back to his old form. Here are his stats from May 1st through July 22nd.
36 GP, 4-2, 36.2 IP, 29 H, 8 R, 8 ER, 11 BB, 42 K's, 3 Saves, 1.96 ERA
A 1.96 ERA!!!
How much more on track does the guy need to be?
Even with his bad game against the Yankees where he gave up 4 runs his ERA over the last 3 months would still only be 2.87.

I know he is doing well as a setup guy, but I would like to see him take over the closer's role or give Yurnbow a run for his $$$... Kolb is definetly NOT going to threaten Turnbow..... Sometimes pressure from another person will straighten you out in a hurry, or you could be shipped out!!!!
