HBT: Brewers admit Greinke is all but gone

Not exactly shocking and not exactly a secret, but given how cagey general managers tend to be about players they?re trading, this is notable:

?We?re taking phone calls,? Melvin told WTMJ?s Greg Matzek. ?We?ve been working here. I?m in the office in the ?war room? already. It?s a busy week. At this point we have to listen to opportunities to improve the ball club for the future and still try to win ball games now.?

Asked by Matzek how many teams have contacted him about Greinke, Melvin said, ?There?s a lot of teams that make contact. You try to narrow the list down in that regard. You take the serious ones.

Tom Haudricourt reports that the?Rangers, Angels, Braves and White Sox are all in on Greinke.

Maybe I?m just being insecure, but I have this fear that the Braves are thinking about giving up a way-too-big-package for Greinke. So, please, Rangers or someone, overpay.
