I just heard today, 12/6/2007, that he is going up to the majors with the Brewers and will be at Spring training with them.

i don’t think they are committed to the braz, or any minor league free agent they sign. but i do think they are probably not ready to commit to narveson much of anything given his injury history. not the oblique or the knee stuff, the shoulder is what i’m sure will steer them away. but i’d still like to see him back, i’ve always had a soft spot for narvie.

I don’t see why the Cards should have any particular commitment to Brazelton. They are giving him a shot in the Spring. They don’t owe him more than that. I said in the thread about minor league rotations for this upcoming year that the last spot in Memphis should go to a LH. Naverson could also serve as a backup for Flores or Johnson if one gets hurt. With the current roster, there is no one near ready from the left side to back them up. If I was a LH FA, STL is where ‘d go.
