BREWERS: Traded shortstop J.J. Hardy to the Twins for speedy outfielder Carlos Gomez .

METS: Declined an option on reliever J.J. Putz , making him eligible for free agency.

COURTS: Three more men have pleaded guilty in the theft of Cal Ripken Jr .'s monument from Camden Yards.

Gary Parker and Matthew Rayner , both 20, and Patrick Reynolds , 18, each pleaded guilty Friday to one count of conspiracy to commit theft over $500. Earlier this week, Jason Stoneburner , 19, pleaded guilty to theft.

Police say the men ripped the 31-foot aluminum monument -- depicting the No. 8 worn by Ripken in his Baltimore Orioles career -- from its base outside the Camden Yards ballpark Sept. 9, then threw it in the bed of a pickup truck.
