Brewers take second lefty in Seidenberger
MILWAUKEE -- The Brewers chose their second left-handed pitcher of the First-Year Player Draft on Saturday with Trevor Seidenberger, who was taken in the 12th round (362nd overall).
The 6-foot-2, 195-pound lefty played two years at Blinn Junior College before transferring to TCU for his junior season. Seidenberger made 21 appearances for the Horned Frogs, mostly in relief.
"He's got a good arm," Brewers amateur scouting director Bruce Seid. "Good slider, good breaking pitch. A good arm that we feel is probably a pretty good bullpen arm. We hope to get him signed. He's a junior, but he definitely wants to go out and play, so we're going to work on that one."
Seidenberger made six starts and 15 relief appearances, finishing the season with a 3-3 record to go along with a 2.63 ERA. He struck out 62 hitters and walked 15 in 54 2/3 innings pitched.
The Pflugerville, Texas, native was the seventh pitcher chosen overall by the Brewers in the Draft.
