Ken Rosenthal is reporting that the Milwaukee Brewers have signed Randy Wolf. The deal is said to be for 3 years for $29 million.
This is a good signing for the Brewers. Wolf has had his fair share of injuries before but these seem to be behind him. Wolf will be a great compliment to Yovani Gallardo in the rotation. The Brewers needed the pitching help to round out their good offensive attack. Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel states that the Brewers based the deal off of the contract that Tim Hudson sign earlier this year with the Atlanta Braves.
Wolf is 33-years-old and went 11-7 this past season with a 3.23 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 160 strikeouts in 34 starts for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Wow, another DL arm for Milwaukee Brewers. Who can forget my infatuation with Ben Sheets?!?! i hope that this works out for Randy and the Brewers, but i feel like he may just jump on a long list of Brewer’s overpaid pitchers that have spent extended time on Disabled Lists. Not sure about this one…
I think if he stays healthy this is a great signing. Correct me if I’m wrong but I beleive he spent some time on the DL last season albeit a short amount. Kind of alot of money to give a guy who’s health is so questionable but whatever. I think if he’s healthy he helps the brew crew out a bunch……Latroy Hawkins? Not so sure.
