There are so many moves going on, I'm not going to comment on any of them, but I'll at least try to list them.

The biggest move of the day so far involves Texas and Washington. Second baseman Alfonso Soriano is on his way to the Nationals, who are sending Brad Wilkerson, Termel Sledge, and a minor league pitcher to the Rangers.

San Diego was active in the trade market again, sending second baseman Mark Loretta to Boston for backup catcher Doug Mirabelli.

The Brewers cleared the way for Prince Fielder to take over at first base by sending Lyle Overbay to Toronto for Dave Bush and Gabe Gross. Both teams are also owed a "player to be named later".

I'm no expert on the Rockies, so someone will have to explain the benefit of this deal for me: Colorado sent Larry Bigbie and Aaron Miles to St. Louis for Ray King. Yeah, I'm confused too.

Also, Trevor Hoffman is staying in San Diego, and Roger Clemens was not offered arbitration by Houston, meaning if he's staying with the Astros, he can't sign with them until May 1.

Unlike the Minnesota Twins, who, as reported earlier this week have unveiled ugly new sleeveless jerseys, the Milwaukee Brewers yesterday announced the revival of the jerseys they wore during the team's successful run from 1978 to 1993. The team will wear the jerseys for Sunday home games - dubbed "Retro Sundays". The announcement is the latest from a Milwaukee ballclub looking to associate itself with its successful teams of the '80s, including a coaching staff that consists of former players Ned Yost (manager), Robin Yount (bench coach), Dale Sveum (third-base coach), and Bill Castro (bullpen coach). As much as the team has tried to distance itself from those old uniforms, the fans refuse to let them go.

2005 has been good for the Milwaukee Brewers, and it just got better today when it was officially announced that Hall-of-Famer Robin Yount will join the team's coaching staff as the bench coach in 2006. The franchise had been trying to lure fan favorite Yount back to Milwaukee for years to no avail, but current Brewers manager and former Yount teammate Ned Yost finally convinced his old friend it was time to make a comeback. Led by a talented group of young players and one of the best pitching staffs in the National League, the Brewers will be looking to improve on this season's 81-81 record - their first non-losing season since 1992. Playing in the same division as St. Louis and Houston - winners of the last two National League pennants - will make it difficult to improve on this season's third-place finish, but the team and its fans will be hoping that the addition of two-time MVP Yount to the coaching staff will inspire the young players to return Milwaukee to the World Series for the first time since Yost and Yount were there in '82.
