The Brewers traded two players to be named later to the Mets for Francisco "K-Rod" Rodriguez and money (apparently around $6 million).
Here is the story:

Who do you think got a better deal?
I think that Milwaukee made a safe deal (they get an above average closer who has already established himself in the Majors), while the Mets made a risky deal (they could end up getting two future Hall of Famers, or two players who spend their whole careers in the minors. You never know what you're going to get).
I am gonna have to go with Milwaukee for this trade.
