|
|
Starting pitching was the Brewers’ biggest issue last season. But the addition of Greinke, along with an earlier trade for Blue Jays right- hander Shaun Marcum, puts the team in one much stronger position.
The Royals, in exchange for Greinke,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], shortstop Yuniesky Betancourt and US DOLLARS 2 million, will receive shortstop Alcides Escobar,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], center fielder Lorenzo Cain,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and right-handers Jake Odorizzi and Jeremy Jeffress.
Greinke will pair with right-hander Yovani Gallardo at the top of the Brewers’ rotation, followed by left-hander Randy Wolf and Marcum and either left-hander Manny Parra or Chris Narveson.
The Greinke trade was first reported by the Bernie’s Crew fan blog and OnMilwaukee website.
Both Escobar and Cain projected to be regulars for the Brewers in 2011. Odorizzi was perhaps the Brewers’ most highly regarded young pitcher.
Greinke waived his no-trade clause to accept the deal with the Brewers — something Milan Lucic wasn't as willing to do with the Washington Nationals. The Royals were close to one deal with the Nats,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but Greinke would have wanted compensation to waive his no-trade clause before going to Washington.
In one stunning move, the Brewers on Saturday acquired the Royals’ ace, sending Kansas City one package of young players.
Greinke, the 2011 American League Cy Young winner, is due US DOLLARS 13.5 million in each of the next two seasons. Betancourt is signed for US DOLLARS 4 million next season with one US DOLLARS 6 million club option or US DOLLARS 2 million buyout for 2011.
FOXSports website senior football writer Jon Paul Morosi contributed to this report. When Milan Lucic expect him to our team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Milan Lucic see that Milan Lucic is one of the five or six.

Jeffress,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 23,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], showed promise in 10 relief appearances with Milwaukee this season but is perhaps best-known within the industry for testing positive for marijuana use three times. Milan Lucic received one 100-agree suspension in 2011.
