Default For trade 2 washed up closers for anything

Milwaukee brewers just announced that they are accepting offers for the following 2 washed up closers

Gagne 4 blown saves 8.31 ERA
Turnblow 9.64 ERA

Will take anything- preferrably a case of beer in trade

I know it is April, but these 2 are horrific!

Didn't everybody laugh when they signed Gagne? Dodgers deserve their ass kickin' for signing A. JONES,and Milwaukee sure deserves theirs for signing a guy with nothing left.

Unfortunately they really didn't have a choice. They tried to sign Cordero, but were the Reds came in at $4million over their offer and stole him away. They gave Gagne a 1 year deal so the risk was low. Fortunately for Gagne the brewers were able to fight back and win 3 out of the 4 blown saves for him so it doesn't look as bad as it could.
