Brewers cut hoffman and others

Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports the Brewers have placed all-time saves leader Trevor Hoffman, among others, on waivers.

Outfielder Mike Cameron, infielder Craig Counsell, catcher Jason Kendall, right-hander Braden Looper and second baseman Felipe Lopez have also been made available. As Rosenthal notes, interested clubs have until Thursday at 1 p.m. EST to make a claim. Hoffman, who has 27 saves and a 1.89 ERA, is likely to draw the most interest. Every playoff-bound team is looking to add another reliable bullpen arm.

cameron is so underrated, a lot of teams would be interested in him, he would fit right in with rockies

but placing players on waivers is standard operating procedure for most teams

i agree, Cameron is totally underrated, as longtime Mariner fan, he was huge in center, a great clubhouse guy, signed before and after games was huge with the fans, of course he was very young in those days but ran the bases like a tornado, many fans pissed when he was sent packing
