Brewers send Segura to the desert

January 31, 2016 By Bill Scott

Brewers logoThe Milwaukee Brewers sent their starting shortstop, former NL All-Star Jean Segura to the Arizona Diamondbacks as a part of a five-player deal on Saturday.

The Diamondbacks also picked up right-handed pitcher Tyler Wagner in the deal for right handed pitcher Chase Anderson, infielder Aaron Hill, minor league shortstop Isan Diaz and cash.

Arizona made Anderson available after signing free agent Zach Greinke and trading for All-Star pitcher Shelby Miller.

The Diamondbacks were looking for a little more offense, despite ranking second in the National League in scoring last season. [Read more…]

Brewers avoid arbitration with three players

January 16, 2016 By Bill Scott

Brewers logoThe Milwaukee Brewers came to terms on one-year deals with all three of their arbitration-eligible players, agreeing to deals with shortstop Jean Segura and pitchers Wily Peralta and Will Smith.

Teams and players had until noon Friday to reach agreements or exchange numbers for possible hearings in February.

Each player made just over the minimum salary last season and will see significant pay raises.

Will Smith’s salary nearly tripled to $1.475 million.  Segura’s salary jumps from $534,000 to $2.6 million.  Peralta goes from $525,500 to $2.8 million.

The 26-year-old Peralta has been in the starting rotation for three-plus seasons, posting a 35-37 record and a 4.02 ERA in 90 games.

Smith has compiled an 8-5 record and 3.21 ERA in 154 appearances.

Segura, who turned down a $38 million, six-year extension offer in the spring of 2014, has been the starter at shortstop for more than three years.  In 479 games, he has hit .266.

Herrera not offered contract with Brewers

December 3, 2015 By Bill Scott

Brewers logoThe Milwaukee Brewers have removed utility infielder Elian Herrera from their 40-man roster.

General Manager David Stearns said he still hopes to sign him to a minor league deal, but said the open roster spot is more valuable at the moment as he continues to make moves to rebuild the Brewers.

Herrera hit .242 with 18 doubles, seven home runs and 33 runs batted in over a career-high 277 plate appearances in 2015.

In 56 games with Colorado Springs, Herrera hit .357 with a .413 on-base percentage, 15 doubles, three homers and 27 rbi.

The Brewers did offer contracts to three arbitration-eligible players, shortstop Jean Segura, right-hander Wily Peralta and left-hander Will Smith.

Nelson avoids serious injury after being struck by a line drive

September 18, 2015 By Bill Scott

Brewers logoMilwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jimmy Nelson escaped serious injury after being struck in the head by a line drive on Thursday night.  Hospital tests revealed nothing more than a contusion, although he was kept overnight for observation.

The liner was off the bat of St. Louis outfielder Tommy Pham and was measured at 108 mph before hitting Nelson and caroming off into foul territory beyond third base.

Nelson went down hard and was face down and motionless for a few moments.  After being looked at by the teams trainers, Nelson eventually rose to his knees and then got up and walked off to a huge ovation from the Miller Park crowd.

Reliever David Goforth took over and pitched four innings, but the Brewers were no match for the Cardinals again. [Read more…]
