Since the season is actually on the horizon, with under 3 months to go, I thought it was time for a Brew Crew update.
Today the Crew signed pitcher Chris Capuano to a one-year, $3.25 million dollar deal. Last year, Cappy made $450,000. The new deal is part of arbitration, with the number coming in the middle of what Cappy asked for and what the Brewers put on the table.
Last year's stats look like this:
69 starts, a 29-24 record and 4.01 ERA
He was also named a NL All-Star.
Earlier in the week, the Brewers avoided arbitration with Kevin Mench by signing him to a one-year $3.4 million dollar deal.
Mench was a bit of a disappointment when when came here in the Carlos Lee trade, hitting .230 with one homerun and 18 RBI in 40 games.
The deal is a raise from last year's salary of $2.8 million.
Finally, the Brewers TV play-by-play guy, Daron Sutton left the team in a bit of shadiness. He left without having another job lined up, but is now slated to work for the Diamondbacks. The buzz is that he and on-screen partner Bill Schroeder did not get along.
Brian Anderson of the Golf Channel has been hired to replace Sutton.
