Orioles Acquire:
Steve Lombardozzi (13: $2M, 14: $2M)
Brewers Acquire:
Brandon Waring ($300k)
I take a slight gamble on Lombo, since he's struggled, has an expiring contract next season and could be out of the Nats' picture when they potentially look to revamp their struggling bench. But, he's depth, and the Brewers add a power prospect. He's an older one, but you can't teach power, and he has 20 home runs in every minor league season, on pace to do it at AA this year. Low-risk, high reward games on both sides.
