Brewers Sign Wise

Wise move: Brewers avoid arbitration, sign reliever:
MILWAUKEE -- Reliever Matt Wise and the Milwaukee Brewers agreed Thursday to a $1.7 million, two-year contract that avoided salary arbitration.

The 30-year-old right-hander made 49 appearances for the Brewers last season, going 4-4 with a 3.36 ERA. He had his first major league save on Aug. 5 at Philadelphia, then went on the disabled list with a strained muscle.


Well, there is another brick in place. Wise is really nothing to get overly excited about, but is also not someone to be upset about. A fairly good solid person in the bullpen.

I see in the article that Toma Ohka is still eligible for arbitration. I am not really sold on him. When he is on, he is lights out, but when he is off, he is horrible. That can be said for a lot of pitchers. The problem with Ohka is he seems to be about 50-50 between the two extremes.
