Milwaukee Brewers Untapped: Trade Deadline Looms

The MLB Trade Deadline is fast approaching and the Milwaukee Brewers have been hot names throughout the rumor mill. There have been other names out there as well and our own Steven Jewell looks at a possible trade for Mike Trout.

Another player that has frequently come up in the trade rumors has been reliever Jeremy Jeffress, who has been posting a lower strikeout rate as BP Milwaukee took a deeper look at his strikeout rate. The team is also looking to sell Jonathan Lucroy, but at a very high premium.

David Stearns has also been active in trade talks, trying to use his magic to bring in more prospects to help further the rebuild along.

One of the Milwaukee Brewers top pitching prospects underwent Tommy John surgery and Ace Schneider has a full rundown on how that affects the rebuild. BP Milwaukee had an alternative look at the Milwaukee Brewers pitching development affected by the surgery.
