Brewers release Wolf

August 22, 2012 By

The Milwaukee Brewers have released left-handed pitcher Randy Wolf today.

Randy Wolf

Wolf struggled much of the season, posting a 3-10 record with a 5.69 ERA. 

Wolf went 13-12 with a 4.17 ERA in his first season with the Brewers and followed that up last year with a 13-10 record and a 3.69 ERA. 

Wolf is in the final year of his contract, but the deal does have a club option for 2013 with a $1.5-million buyout, which the Brewers will obviously have to pay.

In 142 1/2 innings, Wolf allowed a league highs in hits with 179 and earned runs with 90.

Shaun Marcum is scheduled to come off of injured reserve and pitch against the Pirates Saturday or Sunday.  Wolf’s release will allow Marcum to move into the rotation.

The Brewers also called up infielder Jeff Bianchi from Class AAA Nashville.

The Brewers and Phillies split the 4-game series which means the Brewers are 8-1-2 in the last 11 home series.

The Brewers open a 3-game home series against the Chicago Cubs at Miller Park tonight.  Mark Rogers (0-1) goes for the Brewers.  Justin Germano (2-2) goes for the Cubs.

August 15, 2012 By

The Colorado Rockies jumped on Milwaukee Brewers starter Randy Wolf for 4-runs in the first inning and held on for a 8-6 win at Coors Field last night.

For the second straight night, the Rockies banged out 15-hits on their way to victory.  Carlos Gonzalez led the way with 4-hits and Eric Young Jr. homered for the Rockies.

Tyler Chatwood also pitched six effective innings for Colorado.  He allowed 2 runs (1 earned) on 4 hits before giving way to the Rockies bullpen.

The Brewers made it interesting late, scoring 3 runs in the 9th inning.  Rockies reliever Rafael Betancourt was able to get Rickie Weeks to pop out and Ryan Braun to fly out to end it.

Mark Rogers pitches the series finale for the Brewers this afternoon.

Cardinals grab series opener from Brewers

August 4, 2012 By

Rookie right-handed pitcher Joe Kelly broke a 3-3 tie with a run scoring single and the St. Louis Cardinals went on to knock off the Milwaukee Brewers 9-3 at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.

Kelly (2-4) broke a 3-start losing streak by allowing 3 earned runs and 10 hits over 5 2/3 innings. 

His first-pitch RBI single to left off of Randy Wolf (3-8) capped a 4-run outburst by the Cardinals in the fourth inning.

The Brewers scored 3-times in the second inning, jumping out to a 3-0 lead.  Wolf drove in two runs with a bases-loaded single.

Ryan Braun, who entered the game with a NL leading 29 home runs, had three hits including a pair of doubles, but the Brewers tied a season high with four errors, including the first in 51 games at first base for Corey Hart.

Game two of the series is tonight.  Mark Rogers makes his second start of the season for the Brewers.  The Cardinals will go with veteran Adam Wainwright.
