Report: Feliz nearing deal with Brewers

The Milwaukee Brewers appear close to shoring up their bullpen depth.

Though many teams are said to be in the mix for Neftali Feliz, the right-handed reliever is reportedly close to a deal with the Brewers, sources close to the situation told Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports.

Feliz is coming off a bounce-back season with the Pittsburgh Pirates where he posted a 3.52 ERA in 62 relief appearances in 2016 while also recording two saves. The former AL Rookie of the Year also pitched seven seasons with the Texas Rangers from 2009-15 before signing midway through the 2015 season as a free agent with the Detroit Tigers.

In 308 career games, the Dominican right-hander owns a 3.22 ERA and 1.10 WHIP.
