The Milwaukee Brewers became major players in the free agent market on Wednesday, adding some significant punch behind the plate. Jon Morosi of MLB.com reported that the team had secured a one-year commitment from Yasmani Grandal, the top catcher on the free agent market this winter. The deal, which is still pending a physical, will pay the 30-year-old backstop $18.25 million, as reported by Tim Brown of Yahoo Sports.. It's a massive raise over the $7.9 million that he made in his final season with the Dodgers in 2018 and just a hair more than the $17.9 million qualifying offer that he rejected from the Dodgers in November.
