McClung signs Minors deal with Marlins

McClung has reached agreement on a Minor League contract with an invitation to Spring Training. His deal is similar to that of another former Brewers reliever. Last Friday, the Marlins signed Derrick Turnbow to a Minor League deal with the same contract figures. McClung appeared in 41 games for Milwaukee last year and posted an ERA of 4.94. From 2003-06, McClung pitched for Tampa Bay.

The Marlins have stated that they are looking to strengthen their bullpen. Jose Veras, who pitched for the Yankees and Indians last year, also will get a look on a Minor League contract. The Miami Herald reports Florida also has signed right-hander Scott Strickland to a Minor League contract. Hope he can play well in the marlins jersey.
