Guttormsen signs with the Brewers

Erik Guttormsen made his decision on where to play in the 2008 season final this past Wednesday when he selected to join the Lexington Brewers. The Laurelhurst Pirates were hoping to re-sign him and the Cowlitz Cubs and Quiznos Indians were also both interested in his services.
The Brewers now look like the team to beat in the Northern League with the addition of Gus. His left handed bat should fit in nicely with the Brew Crew lineup and he should once again wreak havoc on the short RF fence of Jones Field. He may also take the mound for the Brewers from time to time to help out their rotation.
Brewers captain, Jim Hewey, was ecstatic on Erik's decision to join the team. "We're not sure how often he'll be able to play, but when he's on the field it will make our team better" Jim added.
