Woodward? What is the rational for this move? It's got to be disheartening to the guys working their way up the chain.
Woodward is basically Craig Counsell insurance. If the Brewers had Kansas City or Seattle's record right now, they'd be less concerned about bringing in an experienced guy. But they have to think this way. Prior to this move and since Abraham Nunez' release, your backups to Counsell were Ozzie Chavez, Callix Crabbe, and Adam Heether, with nearly zero big league experience. Woodward shouldn't see Milwaukee unless Craig goes down, but he's virtually guaranteed to do so if Craig does. Nice move, actually...
