Vargas signs with Brewers
The Milwaukee Brewers have re-signed pitcher Claudio Vargas to a one-year contract. The financial terms of the contract have not yet been disclosed.
The starting pitcher turned reliever was 1-0 with a 1.74 ERA last year in 36 appearances between the Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers.
He began the year on the disabled list before being activated right around the 4th of July. Had he been healthy the entire season, who knows what kind of numbers he might have put up.
The team didn’t want to waste time fiddling around with Vargas after he had such a dominant performance out of the bullpen last year, and who can really blame them?
In this day and age, quality arms out of the bullpen are a must-have but very hard to find, especially when it comes to turning in consistent performances year after year.
