Brewers’ first year-end press conference summary

Brewers’ GM Doug Melvin and his staff held their traditional “post-mortum” news conference…reading between the lines, Melvin inferred:

1. Prince and Ryan are not going anywhere
2. Melvin wants to add at least 2 “established” starters (presumably, one via free agency and one via trade)
3. They probably won’t re-sign Mike Cameron, Jason Kendall, or Felipe Lopez
4. Rickie Weeks is not going anywhere
5. Suppan is slated for the bullpen…unless he somehow has a spectacular spring, I imagine
6. They’re still interested in Ben Sheets
7. Alcides Escobar will play short next year and J.J. Hardy will be traded

All in all, no new news…just a reiteration of what many fans (myself included) want to hear.

Now the hard part…making it happen.
