Lefthander Randy Wolf had a fine year for the Milwaukee Brewers in 2011, going 13-11 with a 3.69 ERA and 1.31 WHIP. He was a solid piece of the rotation that helped the Brew Crew win the NL Central title, and he started and won a game in the NLCS against the Cardinals.
Milwaukee Brewers Release Randy Wolf
The Brewers lefthander has had a tough year; now he’s out of work.
Fast-forward to 2012: The Brewers are in disarray due to free-agent departures, trades and injuries. And Wolf has had a miserable season; his ERA is two runs higher at 5.69 and he is leading the NL in hits and runs allowed, not categories a starting pitcher would be proud of.
That’s why this comes as little surprise:
BREAKING NEWS:
— Milwaukee Brewers (@Brewers) August 22, 2012#Brewers release RHP Randy Wolf, INF Jeff Bianchi has been recalled from Triple-A Nashville
The release is oddly timed, in one respect: today is Wolf’s 36th birthday. Some birthday present, Brewers.
