Looking for a Bit of Help

Greetings all!

I'm TheLegacyofJordanTata and I need your help. You see I'm a Detroit Tigers fan and I am in a bit of a debate with another member of BYB. What I want to know from you guys is quite simple. If I were to come here and legitimately propose a trade of Rick Porcello and Avisail Garcia for Ryan Braun, what would the reaction be?

While we all know how absurd that deal actually is, I just want to hear from the mouths of Milwaukee fans themselves. I did my fair share arguing with the solitary poster who in his own words says that such a trade is "not outside the realm of possibility". I don't believe he is a troll, or else I wouldn't have even replied to him in the first place. He just, to me, seems like a person who doesn't have any knowledge of the game of baseball and needs a bit of a push towards the light. He, however, will not budge.

I was challenged by the poster to prove that Porcello and Garcia for Braun was an awful deal despite the fact that the burden of proof was on him and all logic point towards that deal heavily (I should probably write heavily like five times for emphasis) favoring Detroit. I am here to collect evidence from the other fanbase that such a trade is not reasonable.

Here is a link to the relevant threads:

Thank you in advance for your input. I hate to bother you all with such trivialities.
