Who is new? Ten Brewers were acquired after the end of the last season.
Eric Thames was released by the Astros in 2013 so he could play baseball in Korea. He became a huge star while playing in Korea. Gold glove and MVP honors framed his strongest skill – hitting homers and RBIs. This season is his first year back in the Majors. He plays first base.
New starters include Travis Shaw, third base, and Jeff Bandy, catcher.
New bench players include Eric Sogard, Jesus Aguilar, and Nick Franklin.
In May, Paublo Espino made a spot start.
