BradleyAngry Dodger Milton Bradley has been traded to Oakland for an outfield prospect, ESPN is reporting. To make the deal, the Dodgers had to include young infielder Antonio Perez. The team had been facing a deadline to offer Bradley a new contract or (the betting was on this) release him and get nothing back. He's a major talent; hopefully his fourth team will be the one where he gets his temper under control and everything jells. For seamheads only: the prospect is Andre Ethier, the Texas League player of the year, a left/left outfielder who hit .319 with an OPS of 882.
