It's just Durham

Steve Hammond/Darren Ford

So, here's the latest word: The Brewers are just getting Giants second baseman Ray Durham, not reliever Jack Taschner.

So, apparently, its minor league outfielder Darren Ford and minor league pitcher Steve Hammond for Durham. I wonder if the Giants also are sending cash to compensate for the approximately $3.5 million Durham has left on his contract. That's a lot of cash to pick up for a bench guy.

Taschner's out on the field, stretching with his teammates, right now. Durham is not.

We're hearing the deal might not be announced until after the game. That's probably because the Brewers will have to make a player move to accomodate Durham. As I said before, I'm guessing Joe Dillon will go down to Nashville.

We'll report the full details when we get them, but that's the way it looks right now.
