Brewers signed him to a minor league deal. if he makes the 40 man roster he will make 1.5 million and up to 3.0 million in incentives.
He told the brewers he didnt feel like he pitched well enough to earn his 10 million last year with the brewers, and wanted to come back and try to earn his last years salary by playing for dirt cheap.
once a dominating closer, gagne last year had very few appearances and did terribly especially at the end of the season. This is most probably due to steroid use in the past that without taking them has lowered his fastball to 87 mph and made his incredible changeup much less effective. Instead of his changeup being a guarenteed strikeout pitch, last year it was a home run ball.
but gagne last year donated a large amount of his salary to charity and communities around milwaukee.
he has obviously been humbled over the last years, and even though his agent is the faggot scott boras, gagne himself chose to take this 1.5 million deal.
what a respectable player... turns out not ALL baseball players have no sense of pride and only a smell for green
