Crasnick: Mitre To The Brewers


ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick is reporting (tweeting actually) via a source that the Yankees have dealth Sergio Mitre to the Milwaukee Brewers, thus ending Joe Girardi's love affair with him.

This could mean that the Yankees will give Freddy Garcia the long man role for now as they sort out the Colon, Garcia, and possibly, Millwood situation.

More later.

11:50 AM EDT Update: Mitre has indeed been dealt to the Brewers for outfielder Chris Dickerson. The 29 yr-old gives the Yankees some depth at Scranton; he played two-plus seasons for the Reds before being dealt to Milwaukee for Jim Edmonds last season. Dickerson was actually drafted in the 32nd round by the Yankees in 2000, but did not sign.
