Brewers Reluctant To Add A Starter
Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel heard from Brewers owner Mark Attanasio that he's reluctant to add a starter because he wants to have some payroll flexibility heading into the season.
"If we add a starter now and get (beyond) the mid 80s and have some negative events, that would be a first for us."
The Milwaukee payroll currently sits between $80MM and $85MM, up from $80MM last year. Haudricourt does not expect the Brewers to sign "a starting pitcher who costs a lot of money."
GM Doug Melvin said in an MLB.com chat that Ben Sheets remains a possibility for Milwaukee, but they're not currently in talks. The Brewers hear that Sheets is seeking a multi-year deal.
