Milwaukee Brewers: Eric Sogard Has Nerd Power
When the Milwaukee Brewers signed Eric Sogard to a minor league deal on December 12, 2016, most thought that his name sounded familiar. Once fans found out that it was “Nerd Power” vying for a chance to start in Milwaukee, some were probably making calls to their optometrist to start up a fan club.
After missing all of 2016, due to knee surgery, Sogard is back in the Majors after a month in Colorado Springs. The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to find yet another hidden gem in David Stearns’ tenure as GM. So far it looks as though they have.
