I'm not sure why I'm supposed to care about Stearns going to NY, regardless of whether or not there is some super-secret deal already in place. He's not the Brewers GM anymore and it's his childhood team, so if he goes, that's great for him. I mean, hell, if I worked for say, the Braves and the Brewers came calling, I'd hop on the next plane.
And if he brings over some Brewers guys? Fine. They can do what they want. I just don't find reasons to get upset about it.
I'd be a bit disappointed if CC went, but I'd be shocked if he did.
