The Brewers have
resigned reliever Francisco Rodriguez to a 2-year contract.  K-Rod had 44 saves last season for the
Brewers and his 348 career saves puts him 10th on the all-time list.
The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel says the deal is worth $13 million dollars.  The Brewers open up Cactus League play next
Thursday against the Angels.  You’ll hear
that game on News-Talk 1450 KFIZ.

 

A district court judge
has reinstated Vikings running back Adrian Peterson.   The All-Pro running back was suspended the
entire season after allegations of child abuse were brought against him.  Reports have said that the team is looking to
deal Peterson and his $12.75 million dollar salary this season.  The Dallas Cowboys are said to be interested
in obtaining Peterson.
