Brewers Sign Jorge Julio and yet not a tear shed



The big news of the offseason so far for the Braves was the completion of their six player trade with the Chicago White Sox that brought Javier Vazquez over. But maybe the bigger news has been Atlanta’s lack of signings. While they offered money to Mike Hampton he graciously accepted the bid of the Houston Astros thus answering a Christmas wish years in the making. The wish of the Braves finally getting rid of his dead and injured weight. Now comes news that the Milwaukee Brewers have signed reliever Jorge Julio. While he did well with the team recording 3 wins and a .079 ERA, somehow I’m not sad. Now if they could only get rid of Blaine Boyer…
