According to Jon Morosi, the Milwaukee Brewers have inquired about Marlins infielder/outfielder Derek Dietrich. He reports that a deal is not close at this time, but the two teams have talked.
This is a very interesting development as Dietrich is the first name the Brewers have been legitimately connected to this trade season. Jacob DeGrom, Manny Machado, and others have been talked about but there hasn’t been confirmed interest by the club.
GM David Stearns has obviously built up a good relationship with the Marlins front office, having spent months going back and forth with them on the Christian Yelich trade this winter.
