Counsell Returns To Brewers With One-Year Deal

Feb 16, 2014 12:57 AM

Craig Counsell is returning for another season with the Brewers. "That's what I'm going to say," the veteran joked when asked if he returned because Milwaukee acquired pitcher Zack Greinke. The utility man will provide coverage at second, short and third base. "He can back up all three infield positions with his experience," said general manager Doug Melvin. "He brings a quiet leadership to the ball club, and pretty well brings the same r?sum? he's brought for the past few years. "He's a good bat off the bench and he always stays ready. And if he did have to step in and play a few days in a row, he's capable of doing that."
