Brew Crew Ball wonders if trading Derrick Turnbow if he has a good spring might be the best option for the Brewers:

Turnbow is not going to be our closer in April, and unless Francisco Cordero melts down like he did last April (and Ned Yost has a twitchy trigger finger), Derrick probably won't be our closer at any point this year. An injury to Coco is all that would make it happen.

But, obviously Turnbow can close. There are plenty of teams out there that believe no one can pitch the ninth inning except for guys with ninth inning experience, and plenty more who desperately need a better setup man. In other words, a few more outings like this for D-Bow, and Doug Melvin's phone will start ringing again.

So, do we trade him? If so, for what?

The team obviously in need of a closer is the Red Sox. Despite his poor ERA in 2006, Derrick's strikeouts were still high, and Boston will like that. I'm not sure what type of player Boston could send Milwaukee's way at this point, however, unless they're willing to let go a pitching prospect.
