Brewers claim reliever Jimenez off waivers
Jimenez strikes out Lavarnway 0:12 3/16/15: Cesar Jimenez gets Ryan Lavarnway to strike out swinging in the 4th as part of his two innings of work WASHINGTON -- The Brewers claimed one left-handed reliever off waivers Friday, shortly after a report suggested they may be taking steps toward trading another.
The incoming player is Cesar Jimenez, a 30-year-old who has pitched parts of six seasons in the Major Leagues and parts of 10 seasons at the Triple-A level. Jimenez made three appearances for the Phillies this season without allowing a run, and he is expected to join the Brewers on Saturday at Nationals Park.
