The 29-year-old Capuano began last season 5-0, then went on a skid losing his last 12 starts. He had surgery last year to repair his right shoulder. He is expected to be ready for spring training.
You may be shying away from Capuano because of last year being so rocky but remember that he had 18 wins in 2005 and made the NL All-Star team in 2006. Expect him to be back in the Brewers starting rotation considering he has an incentive clause in his new contract that will pay him $25,000 for reaching 26, 28, and 30 starts this season.
