Where Are They Now?

Every year players come and go. Here is look at some of last years Brewers who have moved on.

Kevin Mench - Shrek currently is playing for the Blue Jays in a reserve role. Mench is hitting .233 with zero home runs and eight RBI in 86 at bats. Wasn't he supposed to be a power hitter?

Geoff Jenkins - Jenks has had a rough year in his first season out of Milwaukee. The former Brewers first round pick is batting just .243 with nine home runs and 28 RBI. He also has the lowest fielding percentage of his career at .965. It's tough to see how far he has fallen.

Johnny "I don't speak spanish" Estrada - First the Brewers trade him to the Mets for Guillermo Mota, and then the Mets release him. Ouch. Then he was signed by the lowly Nationals and has only registered 53 at bats on the season. He hit .170 and drew one walk, which gave him a staggering .200 on base percentage.

Tony Graffanino - Graffy is currently playing for the Indians Triple-A team, the Buffalo Bisons. He's hitting .321 with a .379 on base percentage in 53 at bats. Perhaps he'll see some action in the show soon with the Indians?

Damian Miller - Miller is now retired. He received some interest from teams in the off-season, but the only team he was interested in playing for was the Brewers.

Claudio Vargas - Vargas is playing for the Mets Triple-A team, the New Orleans Zephyrs. He's posted a 5-2 record, with a 4.36 ERA. He did receive some time with the big league team, posting a 4.62 ERA in 37 innings pitched.

Scott Linebrink - Linebrink has reestablished himself as one of the premier setup men in the game this year. In 39 innings of work for the White Sox Linebrink has a 2.30 ERA and outstanding WHIP of 0.92. Too bad the Brewers didn't get this kind of performance out of him last year.

Matt Wise - The change up specialist signed with the Mets this off-season and has not the had the year he was hoping for. Wise has only pitched 7 innings for New York and had a 6.43 ERA in them. He's spent most of the year on the disabled list with a shoulder injury.
