Bullpen- Interest in Dotel


yoshii8

I'm making a general bullpen thread, since I've seen multiple reports that we are looking at a couple of different pitchers.

 

I just saw on mlbtraderumors.com that we are interested in Octavio Dotel.

 

I've also hear that we are interested in bringing back Takashi Saito.

My reliever wish list goes like this:

Set up:

1. Lidge

2. Rauch

3. Fransisco

 

7th Inning:

1. Siato

2. Hawkins

3. Dotel

 

Middle Relief:

1. Zumaya

2. Wheeler

3. Coffey

 

Add 3 of the guys listed above to Axford, Braddock, Estrada, Loe, Parra, Kintzler and McClendon and the Brewers should have a well rounded and deep bullpen.

I bet the team signs a couple of these types - older veteran relievers. Saito, Hawkins, Dotel, etc. They sort of all fall into a big bucket. Doug will check on them all, and pick two. As someone said, please, no 3 year deals. All these types are older and should only have one year contracts. Maybe an option, but more than that is dangerous. Saito and Hawkins - both guys I'd like back - netted us a total of about 90 innings over the past 2 years. Not exactly a great return on $10 million.

Melvin said in his "post-mortem" press conference that they would have interest in bringing back one or both of Saito & Hawkins. I'd be surprised if the Brewers have ruled Hawkins out in their own minds b/c Saito could go elsewhere and Hawkins was generally quite solid last year, plus he's younger than Saito by a few years (then again, so is almost all the rest of MLB).
