With Gallardo out, and Turbow out, and Gagne riding the bench, the Brewers pitching looks to be the weak spot of the team.

If the Brewers continue the small hot streak they are on, they will be right back near the top of the Central. At that time, they might start shopping around for another pitcher. (Starter, refeif, or closer, there are many combinations that would work.)

As Gwynn showed in the Cardinals series, the Brewers have a lot of talent on the bench. Who will get traded for pitching sometime this season?

Nobody on our Major League roster will be traded. It would likely be a minor league prospect (Hernan Iribarren, Zach Jackson, or somebody else). We also have 6 picks in the first 2 rounds of the baseball draft (coming up in less than a month). One or 2 of those picks could be packaged with a minor leaguer for a decent 4th or 5th starter.
Manny Parra needs to pitch at least 6 decent innings and give up no more than 3 runs (a "quality start"). His future on the big league club is in jeopardy if he doesn't pitch well tonight. The Dodgers Derek Lowe is tough so hopefully we can get Manny some run support.
