Brewers Send:
2B Neil Walker (5th) $1.0 SP Jordan Zimmerman (6th) $5.4 OF Estarlin Martinez $0.3
Orioles Send:
2B Dustin Pedroia 2016 9.50
Cap Change: Brewers- +2.8 Orioles- -2.8
The trade was made because I desperately needed to add hitting. When I looked at last year's final results I realized that the Brewers were among the bottom of the league in a ton of the hitting categories. I felt that Pedroia upgraded my overall offensive team. While it hurt to lose Zimmerman, I only had him for another year and overall my pitching is very strong.

Please add a link to Estarlin Martinez's stats, as he's considered a prospect.

I accept this trade. Granted Pedoria is one of the top 2B and a great player but he is 30 and there is a natural decline. I am hoping that decline starts next year. Even if it doesn't I am getting a young quality arm along with a steady young 2B. Martinez looks to have some promise and could be replacing some aging Nationals OFs very soon.

On a sidenote, Steve - it's probably worth you knowing that a number of the teams at the foot of the standings were unmanaged for part or all of the season.
