Do Brewers have what it would take to get Olson?
Steve Adams

Most teams have a combination of young talent that would make the A's part with Olson. Most suggestions that "Team A doesn't have the prospects to get X deal done" are misguided. The question in the Brewers' case is whether they'd want to sacrifice from the few top-tier prospects they have, dip into their stock of current MLB talent, etc. in order to pry two expensive years of Olson away.

I know Anthony loves the Brewers/Olson fit -- and on paper it is a great one -- but I question whether they'd be willing to deplete the system/roster to the extent necessary to outbid other interested teams.

Trout and Rendon for co-comeback player of the year...then Angels finally get in playoffs?

I find myself perennially more optimistic about the Angels than most onlookers (and also perennially proven wrong). Rendon as comeback player works, yeah.
