Brewers Claimed Yasiel Puig, Discussed Ryan Braun Deal With Dodgers

The Milwaukee Brewers were the team that won the waiver claim on Yasiel Puig and they legitimately discussed a deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Brewers included Ryan Braun in the conversations with the Dodgers for Puig.

The Dodgers also pursued Braun before the non-waiver deadline.

While Puig was demoted in August, the Dodgers only intended to trade him in a package for a better player.
