After falling short in their spirited attempt to land Manny Machado, the Brewers appear to be very active on several fronts in the trade market. Succeeding in any of those rumored endeavors would certainly impact the Cubs, behind whom the Brewers have fallen in the standings thanks at least in small part to Machado and the Dodgers.
As Ken Rosenthal has reported over the last day or so, the Brewers “continue to cast a wide net in search for upgrades.” That followed a tweet in which he speculated that they were the team asking the Twins about packaging both Brian Dozier and Eduardo Escobar.
