Wilkerson called up to give Brewers extra arm
Over 24 starts with Double-A Biloxi this season, Aaron Wilkerson accumulated a 3.16 ERA and 1.07 WHIP. (AP)MILWAUKEE -- Five years ago, Aaron Wilkerson was stocking frozen foods at a grocery store. On Wednesday, he was on his way to the Major Leagues.
The Brewers are bringing up the 28-year-old right-hander, Wilkerson's agent, Burton Rocks, confirmed. The Brewers did not make any immediate announcement, but Wilkerson could help as soon as Friday night, when the Brewers, who are down a starter since Jimmy Nelson's a season-ending shoulder injury, will be the road team at Miller Park for the opener of a series against the Marlins.
