The Cardinals trade outfielder J.D. Drew along with catcher Eli Marrero to the Braves for three hurlers, Ray King, Jason Marquis, and Adam Wainwright. Atlanta’s new outfielder will have a solid season but will stay with the team for only one season.

The Dodgers trade 38-year-old Kevin Brown (14-9, 2.39) to the Yankees for Jeff Weaver, minor league pitching prospect Yhency Brazoban, a player to be named later and cash. Baseball’s first 100-million dollar player, who will make $15 million next season, waives his no-trade clause to be closer to his family.
