PHOENIX (WITI) -- The Milwaukee Brewers baseball season is right around the corner, and there's a big guy in Milwaukee's bullpen who will carry a big load in his first season with the team."I mean, it's like a brotherly love over there with the other team because you come through Spring Training, you work so hard every day and...but you also have to look at it like a business move too," Brewers reliever Jonathan Broxton said.The human side of baseball makes trades challenging, but when reliever Jonathan Broxton was picked up last August 31st by the Brewers, he made the adjustment with a little help from his new teammates -- some of whom he was familiar with."That was what made it easy too is that I played with some of these guys before in KC and so I kinda knew some of them and come here open arms ready to work and do whatever it took to win," Broxton said.Broxton wasn't around for most of the Brewers great start -- including 150 days in first place, but when he came to join the Crew, the 30-year-old entering his tenth full Major League season retired 46 of the first 62 batters he faced.
