Brewers trade Aaron Hill to Red Sox for pair of prospects

The Brewers began their trade season by sending Aaron Hill to Boston for RHP Aaron Wilkerson and 2B Wendell Rijo.

The Brewers have kicked off their trade season by sending 2B/3B Aaron Hill and cash considerations to the Boston Red Sox for two prospects: RHP Aaron WIlkerson and 2B Wendell Rijo. Trading Aaron Hill was the best case scenario from the start so this should please Brewers fans. It also helps make the Segura/Wagner trade look that much better—not that it ever looked anything but good from the start.

When the Brewers acquired Hill as part of that trade it was widely believed he was essentially a salary dump that allowed the Brewers to, in essence, purchase a better prospect in the deal; that being SS Isan Diaz.
