Trade deadline time is one of the most fun times in baseball. Big names are being traded, and the moves come fast and furious as the deadline approaches. Contenders are looking to get the one or two extra pieces that they think can take them over the top, while less fortunate clubs are trying to offload impending free agents who were likely to leave in the offseason anyway.
The Milwaukee Brewers are almost always active at the deadline, whether it be as a buyer or seller. Very rarely does the team stay put. After a slow start to the season, the Brewers hold the best record in baseball, despite not having a true superstar on its payroll.
