Report: Brewers to sign reliever Alex Wilson

In each of the past three years, Brewers general manager David Stearns has added a bullpen piece in the final week of spring training after seeing them cut loose by a different team. It looks like he might be making it four years in a row.

According to Robert Murray and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, the Brewers have an agreement to sign veteran right-hander Alex Wilson.
