Dunn Rumor (Dead)

[YostInfection]

maybe a bit premature (and could have been discussed...I'll quickly check) - but what does Dunn's deal look like going forward?

 

I have to imagine this is a rental, since it's Wise and a prospect.

[zzzmanwitz]

As much as I like the addition of Dunn, it MUST be followed up by aquiring a reliever.

 

Update: This is from a cincinnati radio station. And it is NOT confirmed by WSSP yet. The whole deal would be Dunn for Wise, TGJ, and an IF prospect. However, TGJ is in the starting lineup, making them skeptical.

[And That]

but what does Dunn's deal look like going forward?

 

He has an option with the Reds that is voided if he's traded, so he's a free agent if he comes to Milwaukee. The Brewers would owe him about $4.3 mil the rest of the way.

 

Team Canada has a taste in their mouths for HRs that can only be sated by a certain Mr. Dunn, it seems.

My buddy is on the field right now with the Italian flagthrowers who are performing and just called me. No joke. Wise and Tbow just ran from the bullpen to the clubhouse. No joke. Take it for what it is worth.

[zzzmanwitz]

Tbow is going no where. I would not want to do this trade if he is involved. Tbow may have to be our closer next season.

[panthernick]

I agree completely. Take my buddies observation for what it is worth, but I have been a infrequent poster on this site for 4 yrs now so I think most people know I don't have a track history of making things up.

[SeriesFinale]

I'll be sick to my stomach if this is true...for a rental?

[brewers255]

any new updates I can't tune in to the radio station.

[panthernick]

I am a tad bias cause I have always been a huge Adam Dunn fan, but you would hope this deal would (if made) include a deal for bullpen help.

[craigharmann]

I trust what Team Canada is going to do. They've got a plan and they'll do what they need to do to make the team better. I'm excited about the fact that we're actually trying to get better at the deadline as opposed to getting rid of guys!

[Loopee]

I can't keep myself from checking this thread every two minutes or so.

[SeriesFinale]

Trading T-Bow is getting rid of guys though

[panthernick]

I just tried to get ahold of my buddy who is on the field as we speak to see if he had anymore info. No answer. I find it fairly coincidental that he text me "did the Brewers trade Wise and Turnbow" and I check here and a message was posted about Wise getting traded. For the record, he didn't say anything about Dunn, I got that info from here.

[jason21nl]

looking at todays lineup, we need to get a bat like dunn in here. I don't know if I want to give up a guy like turnbow in the divison though since he can come back and burn us.

[stoops17]

Turnbow and Wise are good friends so I am sure they are just doing normal stuff together

[zzzmanwitz]

The rumor from Cincy does not involve T-Bow

[brewers255]

Just because Gwynn is in the game doesnt mean anything. It could be offical after the game today. They never said it was a done deal they said it was "close to being a done deal".

[panthernick]

Good point on TBow and Wise being good friends. Also, if you were just traded and leaving wouldn't you want your best bud to help you pack up your stuff in the clubhouse?

[And That]

Does anyone know, if Gwynn played for the Brewers today, and was traded after the game, if he somehow could make it to Florida for the Cincy game, could he play for them tonight? Can you play for two different teams on the same day?

[brewers255]

Any new updates from WSSP?

[zzzmanwitz]

does anyone know the reds fan site? I'd be curious to know what they are saying right now since they are listening to the radio down there.

[TerraceReserved]

Although I'm still pretty skeptical, it seems like this actually could happen. As long as Turnbow isn't involved, I'm all for it. We'd probably need to deal Jenks for bullpen help though.

I was thinking the same thing about Turnbow and Wise. If there was a trade it could just be that if one got traded, the other ran along to hear the news with the other.

[zzzmanwitz]

nothing new yet, they are on a commercial break

I think he could play in both games. I seem to remember players being traded between doubleheaders playing in both games for both teams.
