Holy cow. Now he's suggesting that the Brewers trade Prince Fielder for either Matt Cain or Joe Saunders or Ervin Santana and sign Adam Dunn to play 1B in Fielder's absence. Tim Dierkes on MLBTR says it begs the question, which it does, but...what gives? Cain's been labeled all but untouchable, and it may be that the Angels want a LH power bat like Fielder, but to sign Dunn to replace him?

Ah well, chalk this up to ideas that won't ever happen.

Rosenthal,

has been more right than wrong when I catch his Milwaukee Brewers material though. But point here is, it’s a suggestion. Not a rumor, not a thing he’s reporting as soon to be deal, but his opinion as to where we can go from this and on to our major issue, being starting pitching.

I’d like to do the exact same thing he suggests, for Cain, but whether it’s possible or not is a whole other beast

Sure

I would certainly be interested in getting the pitching, and adding Dunn simply decreases the AVG, not the OBP or run production at 1B. But, what I think would be good for the team, what The Mustache might do, and what other teams might do are three different things.
