This exchange was engineered by the senior staff in the respective front offices, so that the interns could learn how to do the paperwork on a trade that couldn't possibly do either team any harm.

Really, it's probably just filling needs at a minor league levei. The aging Mueller was very productive and respected member of the good Marlie teams in the past few years
