Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports that the Milwaukee Brewers have expressed interest in free-agent closer Trevor Hoffman. After missing out on pricier options, such as Brian Fuentes, Kerry Wood, and Francisco Rodriguez, GM Doug Melvin referred to Hoffman as the only "A-type" closer left on the market.The recent retirement of Salomon Torres, combined with the disastrous experiment with Eric Gagne, has left the Brewers scrambling for an even somewhat dependable closer.

Free-agent reliever Brian Fuentes and the Angels reached agreement

Source (CBSSports.com) ( - ) | 0 comments.

News: Free-agent reliever Brian Fuentes and the Angels reached agreement on a two-year, $17.5 million deal Wednesday, giving the AL West champions a replacement for record-setting closer Francisco Rodriguez. "He should solidify the back part of our bullpen," Angels general manager Tony Reagins said on a conference call. "We pitched well last year, we expect to pitch well again." Fuentes, a 33-year-old lefty, was a three-time NL All-Star who went 1-5 with 30 saves in 34 chances and a 2.73 ERA for Colorado this season. He had a 1.75 ERA after the All-Star break, when he saved 16 games in as many chances. [...]

According to ESPN.com's Buster Olney, closer Brian Fuentes' new two-year deal with the Angels will pay him $17.5 million, including $8.5 million in 2009. The deal also includes an additional $9 million in the form of a vesting option, which becomes available should Fuentes finish an unspecified number of games.We'll have to wait to see how the Angels handle their new high-priced closer. Should Fuentes struggle, it'll be interesting to see whether management decides to give a look to Jose Arredondo, who was projected to be the team's new closer until the Fuentes deal.

Source (mlb.com) ( - ) | 0 comments.

Fuentes takes the place of Francisco Rodriguez, who inked a three-year deal with the Mets earlier this offseason. The signing squashes opportunities for Jose Arredondo or Scot Shields, both of whom were expected to battle for closing duties. Instead, the two will serve in setup roles, as they did admirably last season. Departing Colorado normally would be a plus for most pitchers, but not necessarily Fuentes. After all, his career performance at hitter-friendly Coors Field -- 3.38 ERA -- has been slightly better than elsewhere -- 3.44 ERA. One area where he should receive a boost in is saves itself. The Angels gave K-Rod 69 save opportunities this past season, so expect Fuentes to top the 30 saves he notched in '08.
