Russ Springer anyone?

[kinglou52]

Rotoworld is reporting that the Astros arent likely to retain him, as he is unable to go multiple innings. He's perhaps a little older than we would like (he's 3http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/glasses.gif but he had a 3.47 ERA last year, which includes his time at the bandbox knows as Minute Maid Park, or whatever the heck they call that place now. I could see the Brewers taking a flier on this guy, although they do have plenty of bullpen arms already. Seems like kind of a low-risk gamble however, as relief pitchers arent too hard to move, particularly around trade deadline time.

can he be signed to a minor league deal...or else maybe jose c could be in the minors to tweak some things?

I think we would have to give him a major league deal. Also Jose Capellan is definitly not going to the minors next year. He will probably be a 7th or 8th inning setup guy.

If he was a lefty I'd have more interest. We could use another one for the pen.
