This is not good news.
I don't have time to say much, but the idea of another season with Mike Cameron in center field is a punch in the gut.

Brewers News
CC is gone. But to soften the blow, the Brewers have decided to send along his pal MiKe Cameron (that capitalized K is not a typo).
The deal isn't finalized yet, but it looks like the Brewers would receive 24 year-old outfielder Melky Cabrera (Cameron will be 36 in a month). Here is a comparison of the players:
Cameron
2008: 120 Games, 444 AB, 108 Hits, .243 Avg., 54 BB, .331 OBP, 142 K, 69 R, 25 HR, 70 RBI, 17 SB
-1 charged error, but Cameron exhibited decreased skills in the OF
Cabrera
2008: 129 Games, 414 AB, 103 H, .249 Avg., 29 BB, .301 OBP, 58 K, 42 R, 8 HR, 37 RBI, 9 SB
-4 errors last year in the outfield
-In 2007 he hit .273, and in 2006 he hit .280
Are the Brewers getting a fair deal? Cabrera doesn't seem to bring much to the team, but he is young and doesn't strike out as much as Cameron.

Brewers News
Dave Bush, Mike Cameron, and Prince Fielder all played key roles tonight in one of the season's most exciting wins.
But the win, which pulls Milwaukee within 3 1/2 games of first-place Chicago, will be quickly overshadowed if the Cleveland Indians accept the latest offer for C.C. Sabathia.
ESPN.com's Buster Olney, who was the first person I heard suggest (a couple of weeks ago) that the Brewers were the front-runners in the Sabathia sweepstakes, also provides an update on the situation. He also lists some alternative starters that the Brewers might be interested in should the Sabathia deal fall through.
