    yea he is very good with rest, if he is overworked he can blow a save.

    Could be a good trade, depends on how much brewers got and who they gave up.

    does that mean my boy axford from canisius in buffalo is out? unless he was in the trade. he has pitched pretty well this year although he got touched a few times in july: 23/25 saves, 2.83 era. if hes still on roster it bolsters their bullpen quite a bit.

    I'm surprised the Brewers did this considering Axford's success. Is K-Rod going to be the setup man?

    if any div is gonna be decided by a move id say the nl central is it, call me crazy but i dont think this the move that puts them on top. unless he can teach them to score runs on the road.

    kicks in after 55 finishes.

    he'll be the set up man and earn less than 4 mil next year.
