Thank you Geoff Jenkins!

If DM can magically get him back for less than market value, go ahead and sign the guy. If he slips through the cracks maybe you get him on the cheap, but even with all the good memories you can't drop 9 mil on a platoon guy.

My 2 favorite Jenkins moments - 6/30/05 vs. Cubs (Maddux) Jenks went 3-4 with 3 doubles in a 10-6 brewer win. My wife and 2 of my kids first trip to Wrigley.

 

Then this year vs. Minn. His 3-run homer for # 200. 3-4 with 5 rbi and I was with some Twins fans, that was a great game.

Great to see him going out of his way not to burn bridges.

 

Who knows if 2-3 years down the road, the Brewers could use a veteran LH bat and Jenkins matches that need. Lots of guys make their ways back to their original teams.

Nice thought but looks like he isn't going to slip throught he cracks.

Good for him. I'm glad at least one good team is interested in his services. I honestly thought if he wanted significant playing time he'd be looking at a poor team looking for a stop gap type player. I think he'd be a good fit for that outfield. They need strong armed, plus defenders in the corners there.

I just relocated from Milwaukee to San Diego (arrived the day the fires started...like a genius) and secrectly feared that Geoff would be following me here (since he's just the kind of half-assed "B" defense/"C" stick kind of acquisition that seems to make sense here in NL West country). I certainly don't hate the man and have some fond memories, but this move was about getting a fresh start in many ways and watching his thick goatee'd uppercut isn't at all the reminder of home I need out here.

nice article on Jenks. Glad to see he would want to come back here as a player or coach.
