Cross off another free agent arm from Milwaukee's offseason wish list.
Brian Fuentes signed a two-year, $17.5MM deal with the Los Angeles Angels. It also has a vesting option for 2011, based on games finished for the Halos.
This is what MLB Trade Rumors has to say:
Fuentes, 33, was excellent in 2008. He posted a 2.73 ERA and 11.78
K/9. At the outset of the offseason he was expected to get a three or
even four-year deal.
Milwaukee will likely set their sights on Trevor Hoffman or Jason Isringhausen at this point.
