Transaction Oracle — A Timely Look at Transactions as They Happen Monday, January 14, 2008Brewers - Signed CameronMilwaukee Brewers - Signed CF Mike Cameron to a 1-year contract worth some sort of compensation, probably currency.I'm guessing the dollar figure isn't one that I can complain too much about. The projection below does not reflect the fact that Cameron's guaranteed to miss 25 games of the 2008 season due to the suspension. This no doubt reduced the desirability of Cameron because it essentially eliminates the truly desperate teams like the Orioles from signing him as a stopgap centerfielder. When he does play with the Brewers, Cameron sets off a chain-reaction of Milwaukee players going to positions that they can play adequately, but the team defense isn't so bad that they can't manage a month without him. Good move by the Brewers, who should have a fun race with the Cubs this season. Cameron's once-excellent defense has eroded to being a hair above-average, but it shouldn't be a problem for a few years. 2008 ZiPS Projection - Mike Cameron
