It's not as simple as that.
There's a lot more, a lot more layers to it.
And to say that the brewers didn't try.

President of baseball operations, Matt Arnold talked about a lot of trade talk out there.
We were in a lot of things.
I think we were, we were, did what we can to help the team.
And, you know, when you're, you're in a lot of stuff, there's certainly some things that you, where you come up short and you just got to pick yourself up and dust yourself off and try to do what you can to get the next thing.
And ultimately, I think we were able to accomplish a lot over the last 48 hours to get some stuff done to really help the team.
