With the serious shoulder injury suffered by Alex Burley earlier in the season and the struggles of young starter Abel Pennington, when veteran lefty Daniel Torres, who was acquired in the off-season and was eligible for free agency at the end of the season, requested a chat to discuss an extension, the Brewers management thought it was probably wise to take that meeting.
The result is a three-year deal (with a team option on year 3) to keep the veteran leader around while the organization tries to develop some young starters through the system.
