wouldn’t mind him as a Pad

Couldn’t agree more. Nothing spectactular, but he would eat some innings and give all 3 young guys a break. I would prefer Lilly, but that may be a bit too much to ask at this point.

Can also play Long Man in the playoffs to eat Junk innings
Ohhhplease
Lilly or Kurouda would both be better options, Bush would be a step above Stauffer or Lubeke (at this point). Doubt the Dodgers want to trade inter-division…
Guest
of course.
Bush could be had for very little though. He’s neither a type A or B free agent, unlike both Lilly and Kuroda

He wouldn’t be a bad fit for the Padres. I think he’d pitch with more confidence if he had a better defense behind him.

His achilles heel is giving up HRs, so indeed he could be a good fit for the Pads.

Brewers fan here. Bush is a competent pitcher. He’d be a perfect 5th starter for the Padres, and I think he would thrive with a better defense and a bigger park behind him.
As for a return, just a prospect would be good. A SP prospect would be ideal.

Bush is nothing spectactular but will pretty much give you 6ip 3ER every time he goes out there. With that big ballpark itd be a perfect fit.

Good, get him the hell out of here. Time to start clearing roster space and cash for next year. He’s a mediocre soft-tossing pitcher whose lack of ability is magnified by Milwaukee’s less than stellar defense and small park. He’ll be marginally better somewhere else, but he’s still gonna give up a ton of long balls and have his occasional meltdown. Good enough to be a #5 guy on a good team I suppose. Not much better than half the guys who went unsigned this year, though. Braden Looper is basically the same pitcher, but for a lot less money.
