Jackie Bradley Jr. is trading Samuel Adams for Miller Beer. That's not a good deal. Bradley stole a lot of extra base hits from the Yankees over the years. Top flight centerfielder.

His skills in CF were so good that it didn’t bother me when he took a hit away. But it pissed me off to no end when he’d get a hit against us... especially a HR...

Wander Franco, MLB's top prospect, looks ready for the majors; but when will he make Rays debut?
THIS IS SO WRONG--THE PLAYERS UNION NEED TO ACT ON THIS:
...The unfortunate reality of this era of baseball is that teams almost always manipulate their top prospects' service time as a means of:
1) extending their team control (effectively giving teams seven cost-controlled seasons instead of six); and 2) suppressing their earning potential (by preventing them from reaching Super Two status, or triggering a fourth arbitration-eligible season).
It's a nasty, unfair, and unacceptable part of modern management, albeit one without easy rectification -- relying on teams to operate in good faith toward their players when there's money to be saved is too much to ask, even when long-term relationships, fan interest, and wins are at stake.
Winners and losers from Jackie Bradley Jr signing with Brewers
The top remaining free agent in baseball, Jackie Bradley Jr., has officially signed and there's winners and losers across the board.
