Lorenzo Cain, Brewers reportedly agree to 5-year, $80 million deal

The Milwaukee Brewers are making some big moves.

The Brewers and free agent outfielder Lorenzo Cain reportedly have agreed to a five-year, $80 million deal pending a physical. ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick, who reported terms of the contract, says Cain has no-trade protection and award bonuses.

News of Milwaukee’s deal with Cain comes shortly after the team acquired Christian Yelich in a deal with the Marlins.

The Brewers will have a loaded outfield with Cain, Yelich, Ryan Braun and Domingo Santana. They could be trying to trade Santana, who smacked 30 homers last season.

Between their outfield and Eric Thames and Travis Shaw, the Brewers are building a nice offense. They also are said to be in the mix for Yu Darvish and are clearly looking to contend in the NL Central.
