MILWAUKEE — Ryan Braun wonders whether he still will be with the Milwaukee Brewers when spring training starts.

“Not knowing 100 percent where we’ll be playing is hard. It definitely complicates things,” he said Wednesday at the team’s annual Thanksgiving food drive. “Obviously, things come up. It’s a part of the business. It’s a part of the profession. If something were to happen, we’d figure it out when we get there.”

Braun has a limited no-trade provision but would have the ability to block any swap starting in late May, when he becomes a 10-year veteran who has spent his last five seasons with his current team.

“I get asked about it regularly,” General Manager David Stearns said of a possible trade. “I know that’s a big story this offseason, but I’m very happy that Ryan is a member of the Milwaukee Brewers.”

The 2011 NL MVP, Braun was suspended for the final 65 games of the 2013 season for violating baseball’s drug agreement and labor contract.

He hit .305 with 30 homers and 90 RBI last season following back surgery in October 2015. He is owed $76 million over the remainder of his contract: $19 million in each of the next two seasons, $18 million in 2019, $16 million in 2020 and a $4 million buyout of the Brewers’ $15 million option for 2021.

NATIONALS: Washington acquired pitcher Jimmy Cordero from the Philadelphia Phillies for a player to be named.

The 25-year-old right-hander is 10-12 with a 3.80 ERA in 110 relief appearances and five starts over five minor league seasons.
