Sean Murphy to the Braves (via the Brewers) may be the worst Oakland Athletics trade in history

On today's show, we're looking at the really...odd trade of Sean Murphy from the Oakland A's to the Atlanta Braves, via the Milwaukee Brewers. Atlanta gives us All-Star (as DH) catcher William Contreras (who goes to Milwaukee) and three top ten pitching prospects (#1 LHP Kyle Muller, #7 RHP Royber Solinas, and #9 RHP Freddy Tarnok) as well as veteran backup catcher Manny Pina to get Sean Murphy, while outfielder Esteury Ruiz goes from Milwaukee to Oakland and the Brewers get two unranked relievers. Why did the Braves choose THIS trade to make? Why were the Brewers in it at all? Why did Oakland settle for such a low return?
