Uggghhh.  This could get ugly.  The rumors were that the Brewers more recently weren’t going to trade Burnes and were going to try to compete this year so I assume they received a good offer they couldn’t refuse.

Actually love this from an Orioles perspective. Good get. Didn't hurt much at all.

Agreed, Orioles fans should be very happy.  This is a better deal for them than what Cease would have cost.  These are two of the guys they wanted to dump most.

The Orioles could still trade for Dylan Cease. 

They could, because they sure have the prospects to do so, but their rotation is likely filled out now.  I doubt they will still go after Cease now.

This trade aligns perfectly with Elias not wanting to give up his premium prospects.  He basically gave up two replaceable guys that made sense to move because they don’t have room for them.

What the hell are the Brewers doing giving up on their season

The Brewers do this stuff all the time if they are adding control. They gave up Hader in 2022 with a 3 game lead in the division. Doing something like this was obvious.
