Per Ken Rosenthal, the Brewers are on the verge of signing free agent reliever David Riske to a multi-year deal. Riske was only 1-4 last season with the Kansas City Royals, but did post a solid 2.45 ERA. He also added 4 saves to his resume in 2007, bringing his career total to 20.
It is believed that David Riske will be the Brewers new closer next season, with Turnbow likely pitching the 8th inning and Mota the 7th. My guess is that he will get a 3-year deal for around $14M or so.
