Brewers sign Michael Olmstead

The Brewers have signed pitcher Michael Olmstead and placed him on the 40 man roster.

Olmstead posted a 1.52 ERA with 14.0 K/9 in 59 1/3 relief innings in the minor leagues in 2012. He spent most of the 2012 season between Boston's Double-A and Triple-A affiliates.

Analysis: Why was this guy a free agent? His numbers are great, and I am very excited to see what he can do with the Brewers. Milwaukee is looking to rebuild their rotation and this could be the key move they are looking for. It is a low risk, potentially high reward signing. I like it.
