Cameron is old, bad and expensive. Melky is younger, cheaper and has more upside. i know Cameron has more power and can still pick it, but that's about it. He's also 35.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I agree.

Welp, that makes 2 of you that are wrong then.

Oh and apparently this deal isn't done yet and might not get done. The Brewers want more in return for Cameron.

I'd love for the Brewers to hang on to a guy that will be 36, strikes out 160 times, and isn't the centerfielder he used to be. He misplayed a shitload of flyballs last year. He also did jackshit against us:
12-51, 2 2B, 0 3B, 0 HR, 5 RBI, 16 K

I hope the trade doesn't go through so we can strike him out 30 times this year. It's nice facing him and Bill Hall as automatic outs back to back.

I don't know man. Cabrera is worse than Cameron. Either way they are not going to compete.
