Brewers Close To Signing Cameron?

The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel is reporting the Brewers could be close to signing free agent center fielder Mike Cameron.

Cameron hit .242/.328/.431 for the stinkin' Fathers last season in spacious Petco, good for a 104 OPS+. CHONE projects him to hit .246/.331/.435 next year in a neutral context. He's also suspended for 25 days for using stimulants. Cameron is a Type B free agent, so the Brewers wouldn't lose a draft pick.

If the Brewers do this, they have two choices of what to do with Bill Hall:

Trade him for whatever.

Move him back to the infield and move Ryan Braun out to left.

This could provide a real boost to the Brewers' anemic infield defense. Nothing's final, though.
