Plugging a few holes.

That's the best the Milwaukee Brewers could do when they played their biggest hand of the winter, sending slugging first baseman Richie Sexson _ a perfect fit for his franchise in every way but his contract _ to Arizona in a nine-player trade Monday.

Score this trade advantage, Diamondbacks.

If you link it with the Curt Schilling trade, viewing it as a three-team deal, as you probably should, you score that one advantage, Boston.

The bottom line is what it has been in baseball forever: The rich keep getting richer, or, in this case, Richie.

The point is not to pile on second-year Brewers general manager Doug Melvin. He's actually doing a good job of supplying talent to a major-league franchise that is barely acting like one.
