Francisco Rodriguez took his third loss already after giving up a two-run homer to San Diego's Mark Kotsay in his inning of work Tuesday.
Rodriguez obviously isn't thrilled to be in a setup role, and one wonders if that might have something to do with his struggles. He's walked eight and allowed two homers in 12 1/3 innings to start the year. Last year, he had a total of 10 walks and one homer allowed in 29 innings for the Brewers.
May 2 - 1:23 AM
Francisco Rodriguez may file a grievance or lawsuit, citing malpractice or fraud, against his former agents this week regarding a no-trade clause in his last contract.
K-Rod, pitching out the final year of a three-year, $37 million contract with the Mets in 2011, believed he had a no-trade clause that outlined 10 teams he couldn't be dealt to, including the Brewers. Instead, Rodriguez discovered in July that his former agents, Paul Kinzer and Arn Tellem, never filed the no-trade paperwork and he was shipped to Milwaukee, where he was pushed to a setup role and likely saw his free agent value drop. Rodriguez fired Kinzer and Tellem and hired Scott Boras. "He's going to lose a lot of money, the question is whether it's seven figures or eight figures," said attorney Richard Johnson, who said the Wasserman Group, for which Kinzer and Tellem work, backed out of at least a $1 million damage payment before the eventual mediation hearing. "There's long-term damage to his career. He wasn't even in position to be marketed as a closer last winter. They really [messed] with his career in a monumental way."

Francisco Rodriguez is expected to arrive to the Brewers' spring training camp a few days late.
It's not clear what the reasoning is, but evidently K-Rod is still in his native Venezuela. The Brewers aren't concerned, though. "We are not in the least bit concerned (about Rodriguez coming later)," said assistant general manager Gord Ash. "Late-inning relievers, especially veterans, don't need as much time to get ready to pitch. He also pitched a little in winter ball."
Feb 19 - 9:27 AM

Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel
The Brewers and RHP Francisco Rodriguez avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $8 million contract.
The Brewers were hoping that K-Rod would reject their arbitration offer this winter and sign elsewhere as a free agent, thus netting the team a draft pick. But a market for him never materialized and so he decided to take the most lucrative route. He earned $11.5 million in 2011 while posting a 2.64 ERA and 79/26 K/BB ratio in 71 2/3 innings between New York and Milwaukee.

Mat Gamel
D.L.
Mat Gamel underwent surgery Tuesday to repair a torn ACL in his right knee.
Gamel also had surgery to repair a debridement of the lateral meniscus. He will miss the rest of the season. Travis Ishikawa, Taylor Green, Corey Hart and Brooks Conrad have all seen time at first base since his injury and the Brewers could eventually go outside the organization for a more stable solution.

D.L.
Alex Gonzalez underwent surgery Thursday morning to repair the torn ACL in his right knee.
As scheduled. The recovery time for the particular procedure that Gonzalez had is six months, meaning he's done for the remainder of the 2012 season. The 35-year-old shortstop batted .259/.326/.457 with four home runs and 15 RBI in 89 plate appearances for Milwaukee. He'll hit the free agent market this winter.

Chris Narveson underwent successful surgery Tuesday to repair the labrum and rotator cuff in his throwing shoulder.
Narveson will need nine months to recover, so he will miss the rest of the season and possibly the early part of spring training next year. The 30-year-old southpaw has made 28 starts for the Brewers in each of the past two seasons and will be arbitration-eligible for the first time this winter.

Kintzler began the season on the disabled list after missing all of spring training with a nerve issue in his right arm. He could find his way back to the Brewers' bullpen soon if he can stay healthy.
