RT @js_brewers: He'll likely only start every fourth or fifth day, but catcher Manny Piña says he's happy just to be able to stick with the Brewers for a fourth season. https://t.co/6u3117OWNN

#Brewers GM David Stearns talks about expectations for return of Jeremy Jeffress to active status.
RT @JRRadcliffe: From @Haudricourt -- the #Brewers don't need to spend $430 million to have an MVP on the roster, but Christian Yelich has no regrets over the deal he signed in 2015. https://t.co/f9kR8uNJbw
RT @js_brewers: Brewers' Christian Yelich is happy for Mike Trout and his new deal but has no regrets over the deal he signed early with Miami. https://t.co/6TDrZx7mNb
.@JAguilarMKE drives in the #Brewers 2nd run of the day with a double off the wall. Spring Training is also the time to practice curtain calls. #CactusCrew
RT @Haudricourt: #Brewers GM David Stearns on reliever Josh Fields: "Will probably be more of one-inning pitcher or slightly longer. We probably won't stretch him out more than that. He has been a really effective pitcher at the end of games."

So, #Brewers GM David Stearns gave us more defined news on Jimmy Nelson. Will open season on injured list but is expected to pitch at start of AAA season instead of staying in extended spring training: "He'll get a couple of starts under his belt and then we'll re-evaluate."
Bummer that Jeffress is looking at a return like late-April, but so long as he's right when he does return, it'll be fine. April games count but it's about being healthy in September and hopefully October.

#Brewers have scored twice in the sixth to close within 3-2 of Rangers. Jesus Aguilar doubled in one of the runs.
Keuchel is asking for way too much money and way too long of a contract. That's why he's still unsigned.
Yes, we will go into the season with no lefty starters. Do I like that? Of course not, but that's what we got.
@ReviewngTheBrew are we seriously 10 days away from Opening Day and Kuechel isn’t signed?! Are we going into the season with NO left handed starters? Thoughts?
More Stearns on Nelson: "He will open the season on the injured list. He should be able to start games with the (AAA) San Antonio club right at the start of the season." That's good news.
#Brewers GM David Stearns on RHP Jimmy Nelson: "We just want to see constant progress. He has given us that over the course of spring. Jimmy wishes it was going faster but from our perspective this is about as good as we could have hoped for. We are seeing his stuff get better."
The #Brewers have signed RHP Josh Fields to a minor league deal. So who is Josh Fields and what kind of impact could he have this season? Read all about it here. #ThisIsMyCrew

More Stearns on Jeffress: "We don't anticipate this going well into the season. Maybe mid to late April, without putting something definitive on there, is probably a fair estimate at this point."
David Stearns on reliever Jeremy Jeffress: "He is making progress. Clearly, he's not going to be ready for opening day at this point. My sense is he's not going to be ready right when he's eligible (to come off DL). There's probably going to be a little time after that."
Stearns said they want Fields to get to know big-league staff first before going to AAA and getting ready to help #Brewers down the road. One factor in going after him was the loss of Bobby Wahl to a torn ACL.
