Trevor Hoffman Extends Contract With Brewers
ESPN.com's Buster Olney announced that Trevor Hoffman has agreed to a contract extension with the Milwaukee Brewers worth $8 million that also includes an option for 2011. Trevor spent the 2009 season with the Brewers after 16 seasons with the San Diego Padres. Hoffman went 3-2 with a 1.83 ERA and saved 37 games. There is no reason to think Trevor can't put up similar numbers like this since he has been so consistent over his 17 seasons.
