The Milwaukee Brewers traded Jackie Bradley Jr. plus prospects Alex Binelas and David Hamilton to the Boston Red Sox in exchange for right fielder Hunter Renfroe on Wednesday night, but they could have ended up with a different outfielder.
The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reported on Friday that the Brewers spoke about a Bradley trade with multiple teams, including the Toronto Blue Jays. Such a swap would have sent Randal Grichuk to Milwaukee in a one-for-one deal.
Rosenthal says the #Brewers discussed multiple trades of JBJ before deciding on the Renfroe deal.
