The major-league record holder for saves in a single season (62), Rodriguez had a 6-2 record with a 2.64 ERA and 23 saves last season, serving mainly as an eighth-inning man with Milwaukee.

 

Milwaukee still has three players in arbitration: RHP Shaun Marcum and relievers Kameron Loe and Jose Veras.

 

Villanueva spent his first five seasons with Milwaukee and owns a career mark of 26-28 in 263 appearances, 40 of which have been starts. His career ERA sits at 4.28 and he has added six saves in 17 opportunities out of the bullpen.

 

The 29-year-old Michigan native appeared in just 44 games last season and batted only .232 with seven runs batted in. He is a career .253 hitter with eight homers and 86 runs batted in over 327 games in parts of five major league seasons.

 

His 14 wins gave him at least 10 wins in five straight seasons, making him the first Phillies pitcher to do so since Hall of Famer Steve Carlton's 13-year streak from 1972-84.

 

Hamels, who earned $9.5 million last season, had signed a multi-year deal with the Phils in 2009, but left his last arbitration year open. He can become an unrestricted free agent at season's end.

 

Valdez will earn $930,000, plus incentives, after batting .249 in 99 games last season. He also hit .370 with runners in scoring position.

 

Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to a one-year deal with pitcher Jeff Karstens, thus avoiding arbitration. Karstens finished 2011 with a 9-9 record and a 3.38 earned run average, the best of his career, in 30 games -- 26 starts-- for the Pirates.

 

Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Milwaukee Brewers have named former infielder Craig Counsell as a special assistant to the general manager. Counsell wrapped up a 16-year big league career in 2011 with the Brewers, for whom he played his final five seasons. He batted .178 in 107 games last year.

 

"We are pleased to have Craig join our organization in a very significant role," said Brewers general manager Doug Melvin. "His knowledge of how to play the game, along with his work ethic and passion to see the Brewers succeed, will now be utilized and welcomed by our front office."
