Got in under my adjusted payroll. I had offers for several players during the week including a couple for Luis Valbuena and Josh Fields.
I was happy with the real Astros success on the field this year, but felt that the lineup needed a big bat. I traded three players for Ryan Braun and 5 million Brewer bucks, hoping that a change of scenery would revitalize
a once great player.
