December 8, 200520 yr MLB radio is reporting that Danny Kolb has been dealt back to the Brewers for Wes Obermueller. It seems to us that it would have made a lot more sense to wait until he was non-tendered by Atlanta, something that was sure to happen. Kolb made $3.4 million last season and couldn't receive less than $2.72 million in arbitration. Maybe the Brewers can work something else out with him. If anyone can straighten him out, it would seem to be Mike Maddux, the pitching coach who helped mold him into a reliable closer in the first place. Of course, the Brewers won't want Kolb to do any closing next season. Dec. 7
December 8, 200520 yr the Braves finally get hozed when acquiring a pitcher... EDIT: mie speleeng iz baad. Edited December 8, 200520 yr by Steve9347
December 8, 200520 yr If Kolb goes back to two years ago's form that would be nice. I'll root for the Brewers, they got some good prospects and for the most part seem to be making some nice moves (since the Seligs got out)
December 8, 200520 yr Yeah Wes Obermuller for Jose Cappellan (in the end) seems like a good overall deal for the Brew Crew
December 8, 200520 yr i dont get this, i guess hes gonna close, not too sure, brewers had a good closer IIRC
