Some guy that Tor signed when Doug took the weekend off.

He's also the guy who made three errors for the Braves at 2B in game 3 of the 2010 NLDS.
Not sure if the Giants gave him a ring or not.

If you remember the 2010 NLDS, he had several costly fielding errors for the Braves.
I assume he will be a security blanket if Taylor Green struggles next year.

I immediately thought the same thing

Taylor Green is now the Rodney Dangerfield of Brewers players
He has officially inherited the title from Mat Gamel.
No kidding
sad, really.

To be fair, his fielding stats don't look that bad.
He’s just famous for one really bad game.

This is entirely true.
Plus, his 2010 batting stats weren’t awful.
Interesting
Most likely minor league depth, but Conrad mashes LHP (even though he’s a switch hitter he has really severe platoon splits), could be a nice complement to Gamel. .379 wOBA vs. LHP last season, .357 wOBA vs. LHP in his career.
If Plush had to pick Wearwolf or Vampire, I'm a Wearwolf!
