Well th 19 year old stats look promising anyway. Just not sure why the Brewers wanted Stalling for him. 18.4 K rate n 7.1 IP.

Interesting, I'm not sure what the Brewers like with Stallings here. 

A better question is what do we like with Vieira.  I don’t see a lot there.

Brewers did not want to pay Vieira the 500K left on his contract is my guess.    O's assume that cost  while buying Rodriguez.    The O's have seen enough of Stalling to know he was not going to help them in the majors.     JMO

O's are likely to DFA  Vieira and see if he will accept an assignment to AAA.

He throws really hard. A lot of posters have been screaming that we need a 100MPH strikeout guy in the pen. The only way we're getting one at this point in the year is to try to fix one with a bunch of warts. I guess that's what this is.
