Brewers Trade Zack Greinke to the Angels

[gladdyontherise]

One of the trade deadline's major chips has switched teams, as the Angels have acquired Zack Greinke in a trade with the Brewers, according to Ken Rosenthal and Jon Morosi of FOX Sports. Milwaukee will receive top infield prospect Jean Segura and Double-A pitchers Ariel Pena and John Hellweg in exchange for their ace.

The Angels are trying to become the Yankees it seems, and if that's the plan, they're doing a solid job.

Wow, Jerry Dipoto deserves a medal or something .

I dont care how many top prospects the Angels may have traded in this deal. In the past, I am haunted by former GMs not wanted to trade people away who had high trade value - Schoeneweis, Ortiz, Mathis, Wood, McPhearson, etc. Odds are these top prospects wont even make it big in the majors.

None of the players they gave up is a good get. Segura is ok, but nothing special.

I hope he can work out for the Angels!
