Brewers mentioned as a possible Koji Uehara suitor (Oriole closer / swingman)

[Jim Goulart]

Rotoworld via the Baltimore Sun:

Six teams have expressed interest in free agent right-hander Koji Uehara, according to the Baltimore Sun.

The Orioles are one of them. Uehara posted a stellar 2.86 ERA and 0.95 WHIP over 44 innings in 2010 for Baltimore and is probably hoping to cash in on a market that produced a lucrative multi-year deal for a guy like Joaquin Benoit. The Mariners, Twins, Red Sox, Brewers and Cardinals are among the other teams that have expressed interest in the Japan native.

Uehara is an outstanding pitcher, but he's going to get more money than the Brewers should pay for a middle reliever. At least for right now.

[Oldcity]

Love this guy. He's fun to watch as well. He'd be a good fit for a back end starter or bullpen.

I love him too, but the Brewers bullpen is the least of my concerns. What type of deal would it take to bring him to Milwaukee?
