Veras’ agent said that Veras would elect free agency if he clears waivers.

Ron Roenicke was short another player, placing first baseman Travis Ishikawa (oblique strain) on the disabled list.  Catcher George Kottaras had to leave the game with a hamstring cramp, and reliever Kameron Loe wasn’t available because of elbow soreness.

Quick start lifts Brewers past Cubs

April 11, 2012 By Bill Scott

Alex Gonzalez clubbed a 3-run homer in Milwaukee’s 5-run 1st inning to send the Brewers to a 7-4 win over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field on Tuesday night.

Playing in chilly 40-degree weather, the Brewers jumped all over a wild Paul Maholm, sending 10 batters to the plate in the first inning.

Chris Narveson pitched five innings to improve to 7-1 with a 3.52 ERA in 14 career games against Chicago.  Narveson allowed three runs, two of them earned, on six hits.

Four Brewers pitchers, Marco Estrada, Kameron Loe, Jose Veras and Francisco Rodriguez worked the final four innings to preserve the victory. 

Yovani Gallardo (0-1) gets the start for the Brewers this afternoon in game 3 of the 4 game series.  Ryan Dempster (0-0) pitches for the Cubs in the 1:20 start.

Brewers win arbitration case with Veras

February 14, 2012 By Bill Scott

The salary arbitration case between the Milwaukee Brewers and RHP Jose Veras was won by the Brewers today.  That means Veras will earn $2-million for the upcoming season, instead of the nearly $2.4-million that he was seeking.

Veras was acquired in December in a trade with the Pirates for third baseman Casey McGehee. 

The Milwaukee Brewers are now 1-1 in arbitration since Doug Melvin took over as GM.  Corey Hart won his hearing two years ago.

The Brewers also signed infielder Jeff Bianchi and RHP Wily Peralta to 2012 contracts.  They now have 30-players on their 40-man roster under contract.
