Lets Trade for Ian Snell

In a superb return to Class AAA Indianapolis yesterday, he fanned 17 batters over seven innings, including his first 13 outs of a 2-1 victory against visiting Toledo.

This came four days after requesting a demotion from the Pirates -- one that management already had been discussing -- because of what he described as "too much negativity" in Pittsburgh.

He must want "out" of Pittsburgh. His contract is a bit of a problem, but if the Brewers can get the Pirates to pay a good portion of it and it costs us a Mike Burns or a Chase Wright, why not do it?
