29 year old C.McGehee could be on trade market with Ramirez signing
With the recent signing of 3B free agent Aramis Ramirez going to the Milwaukee Brewers for 3 years $36M (according to Brewers.com), the Brewers now former 3B Casey McGehee could be on the trading soon. This could be a blessing in disguise for Detroit Tigers fans that wanted us to sign Ramirez, if we can jump on the chance to trade for McGehee. If the Tigers spent that kind of money on a player, he would have to really produce to justify the money spent. I am not saying Ramirez wouldn’t do so, but it’s a fairly big risk per cost ratio due to his injury concerns. However if we can get McGehee for a good price on the trade market (if he is even available), we could fill a hole with a fairly young player that has potential, for a much cheaper price tag. Which is a much more reasonable risk for the Tigers considering they are already at the $100M mark in team salary. Am I saying that McGehee is as good as Ra...

Brewers acquire RHP in McGehee trade
MILWAUKEE - With free agent third baseman Aramis Ramirez set to join the Brewers, the team made space for him Monday by trading Casey McGehee to Pittsburgh for right-hander Jose Veras.
McGehee, 29, was named the Brewers' Most Valuable Player in 2010 after hitting .285 with 23 home runs and 104 RBI. He had a miserable season in 2011, though, hitting just .223 with 13 home runs...
Aramis Ramirez a sensible deal for Brewers
I'm late to the party on the Aramis Ramirez writing, but there's been some good stuff written about the move already. Jack Moore wrote the move up at FanGraphs, and sees it as an upgrade at third. Ryan Topp recapped it for Bernie's Crew, and doesn't like it nearly as much.My feelings fall somewhere in the middle. There's definite risk involved in forking over...
Agent: Brewers agree to deal with 3B Ramirez
The Milwaukee Brewers agreed to terms with free agent third baseman Aramis Ramirez on Monday, agent Paul Kinzer told The Associated Press.
Ramirez will provide a much-needed big bat for the Brewers, who are expected to lose first baseman Prince Fielder through free agency and may be without NL MVP Ryan Braun for the first 50 games of next season if he loses his appeal for testing...
Pirates acquire 3B McGehee from Brewers
The Milwaukee Brewers have traded third baseman Casey McGehee to the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for relief pitcher Jose Veras.

McGehee hit .223 with 13 homers and 67 RBIs last season. He led the club with 104 RBIs in 2010.
Veras, 31, has spent...
Casey McGehee's Rough Year
Casey McGehee is a Brewer. We have always hated Casey McGehee. Casey McGehee is a Pirate. We have always loved Casey McGehee. When the Pirates picked up Casey McGehee last night, my initial instinct was to remember that how awful he was in 2011 and how overrated I thought he was in 2010. Being overrated doesn't mean that a player isn't useful, of course (see: Neil Walker...
Brewers trade McGehee for Reliever Jose Veras
The Milwaukee Brewers have traded third baseman Casey McGehee to the Pittsburgh Pirates for reliever Jose Veras.
After the Brewers acquired Aramis Ramirez earlier today via free agency, a trade became more likely for McGehee. I personally thought there was no way the Brewers would deal McGehee because of his prolific 2010 season and that he would be able to platoon first base with...
