The headlines on most sports articles are pretty sickening but this one is just incredible for its egregiousness.

The agent for Yadel Marti, Yasser Gomez and Juan Yasser tells ESPN.com's Jorge Arangure Jr. that the three Cubans have all been declared free agents. Marti and Gomez defected in December and a few weeks later their agent, Jaime Torres, said his clients were big-league ready. Now the bidding can begin...

Torres tells Arangure Jr. (via Twitter) that three NL teams and two AL teams have expressed interest in signing Gomez and Marti for the stretch run. As Arangure Jr. points out, potential suitors would have to activate either player by the end of the month for them to be playoff-eligible. Apparently Marti could boost any team's rotation.

(EDIT by KLSnow) No corresponding moves have been announced yet, although if players are coming up from the minors an official announcement likely would not be made until tomorrow afternoon.

(EDIT by TheJay) Per McCalvy, Hernan Iribarren up for Hall. (h/t Aceinyourhole)

Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports report that the Brewers aren't seriously discussing a trade for Jarrod Washburn. They've lost 16 of their last 23 games and are reluctant to give up the prospects the Mariners would require in return, especially when Washburn profiles only as a Type B free agent.

Something's missing from this Brewers team and it's not a starting pitcher. There just is no spark with this club. Been that way for awhile.

Brew Crew Ball Should the Crew Still Buy? Or Go Status Quo?

It's been rough lately. The team has slid now to one game over .500, the price tag for premium pitching is steep, and it's debatable whether one stud pitcher would even be enough to put the team over the top. The bullpen is now showing cracks and we still don't know what's going on with Dave Bush. Moreover, we've only got so many big prospects left to deal with.

At the same time, the division is wide open, we've got the prospects to make a big splash and you've only got so many chances to make a run for it. 

What should the Brewers do?

What should the Brewers do as the trade deadline approaches?
Go big -- Halladay or Lee. It's a wide open year and you only have so many chances.

Be careful. Let's see if we can add a decent arm but not give up Gamel, Escobar, Parra or Lawrie

Shut it down. This team has too many weaknesses and a big trade would kill the farm system.

Sell. Things don't look good anymore and we can get prospects for Hoffman and Cameron.

"If the Padres were to trade Gonzalez this off-season -- and I believe it's more likely than not that they will deal him -- chalk it up to timing."

Brew Crew Ball What if Ken Macha managed last year's team?

Patience, nerves, bullpen ... what if the Brewers had fired Yost and hired Ken Macha a year ago?
