The Brewers traded Brad Mills to Oakland for $1
On Tuesday, the Brewers announced they had traded Brad Mills to the A's for "cash considerations," which in this case means exactly 100 pennies. A left-handed starter who made his Major League debut with the Blue Jays in 2009, Mills signed with the Brewers in 2014. In 14 appearances and 12 starts with Minor League affiliate the Nashville Sounds, he's posted a 1.56 ERA with 77 strikeouts over 75 innings. According to FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal, he's also the first Brewer since Wil Nieves to be traded for less than the price of an iced coffee:
#Athletics acquired Mills from #Brewers for $1. Expected to move into rotation shortly.
