There was a great deal of fervor around trade rumors and the Milwaukee Brewers prior to the trade deadline. Would Milwaukee be buyers? Would they be sellers? Would would the Brewers acquire? Would would they deal? Where was Josh Hader going to go?
Well we now know the answer. Milwaukee was a seller, but they did not sell big. Josh Hader is still in a Brewers uniform, and the only player traded was his setup man, David Phelps. Milwaukee sent Phelps to Philadelphia for three low level minor league pitchers.
Phelps was outstanding for the Brew Crew in August of 2020.
