The Dodgers got an old friend back on Monday courtesy of the Milwaukee Brewers. Reliever Gus Varland, who was picked in the Rule 5 Draft this past year by the Brewers, is officially back in Los Angeles.
Varland, who was designated for assignment by the Brewers last week, has returned to Los Angeles, who had the option of getting him back after the Brewers gave up on him. He cleared waivers, and is now back with LA.
Varland had a solid first month with the Brewers this season that ended on the lowest of lows.
