The Milwaukee Brewers will likely trade some of their offense to improve their pitching staff, but will almost certainly not deal Prince Fielder or Ryan Braun. "That would be a tough one," said GM Doug Melvin. "I didn't mean it that way. I don't see that happening." Milwaukee would struggle to get appropriate value in return for either slugger. "That's the great debate," said assistant Gord Ash. "What helps you more, the No. 1 starter or the top slugger? I'll go with the hitter. There's so much uncertainty wtih pitching. You have to be open-minded with anything but some players are more painful to trade. There comes a time when financial implications come into play but we're not at that point with either one."
