Brewers off to good start

March 4, 2016 By Bill Scott

Brewers logoThe Milwaukee Brewers are off to a two-and-oh start after the opening day of the Cactus league exhibition season at Arizona.

The Brewers won both of its split-squad games on Thursday, 2-1 over the Chicago Cubs and 8-7 over the San Francisco Giants.

Jonathan Lucroy and Colin Walsh each drove in one run for Milwaukee and starter Chase Anderson struck out a pair in two innings while giving up just one hit.

New Brewers first-baseman Chris Carter clubbed a two-run homer off of Jake Peavy in the win over the Giants.  Shane Peterson and Michael Reed also drive in two runs each for the Brewers.

Milwaukee returns to action this afternoon with a single game against the Seattle Mariners.

Peterson clears waivers, sent to minors

February 4, 2016 By Bill Scott

Brewers logoOutfielder Shane Peterson had been designated for assignment last week when the Milwaukee Brewers acquired outfielder Rymer Liriano from San Diego.  Peterson cleared waivers on Thursday and was sent outright to Class AAA Colorado Springs.

Peterson received an invitation to Brewers’ spring training camp as a non-roster player.

The 27-year-old Peterson hit .294 as a pinch-hitter for the Brewers last season and played in 91 games in all.  For the season, he hit .259 with two homers and 16 RBI.

The Brewers needed to open a 40-man roster spot to acquire Liriano and did so by designating Peterson.  Now he is one of 17 non-roster players invited to spring training.

Brewers acquire outfielder from Padres

January 29, 2016 By Bill Scott

Brewers logoThe Milwaukee Brewers acquired outfielder Rymer Liriano from the San Diego Padres on Thursday, in exchange for left-handed reliever Trevor Seidenberger.

To make room for Lirano on their 40-man roster, the Brewers designated outfielder Shane Peterson for assignment.

The 24-year-old Lirano, who was once considered one of the best prospects in the Padres farm system, played last season at Class AA El Paso and hit .292 with 14 homer runs and 64 RBI in 131 games.  But he also struck out 132 times.

Brewers general manager David Stearns received input from the Brewers new bench coach Pat Murphy, who managed at El Paso last season before moving up to become San Diego’s interim manager.

Liriano is out of options, so he has to make the team to stay on the 40-man roster.

As for Shane Peterson, if he clears waivers, it’s likely the Brewers would try to keep him in the organization.

Taylor Jungmann pitched just three innings in his final start of the season.  Jungmann allowed four hits, four walks and three runs as the Milwaukee Brewers fell to the San Diego Padres 3-1 at Petco Park.

Jungmann struggled in the final month, allowing 28 hits, eight home runs, 13 walks and 24 earned runs in 22 2/3 innings (9.52 ERA) over his last five games.  He finishes the season with a 9-8 record and a 3.77 ERA in 21 starts since coming up from the minors in early June.

Shane Peterson’s leadoff pinch-hit home run gave the Brewers their only run.  It is the Brewers’ fifth pinch-hit home run of the season.  Jason Rogers and Khris Davis both have two.

Brewer hitters struck out 16 times in the game against Padres starter Ian Kennedy and three relievers.

Yangervis Solarte clubbed a two-run home run for the Padres in the win.

The Brewers return to Miller Park for the final series of the season, against the rival Chicago Cubs.  Chicago sends Cy Young candidate Jake Arrieta (21-6, 1.82 ERA) to the mound.  The Brewers will go with rookie right-hander Ariel Pena (2-0, 3.91).
