Brewers’ reliever Derek Turnbow has cleared waivers, and accepted an assignment to AAA Nashville. The former all-star has struggled this season, and has opted to report to AAA as opposed to free agency because he’d be walking away from over $3 million. He’ll report to Nashville on Monday.

This season, Turnbow is 0-1 for the Brewers with an ERA over 15. Yes, that’s right, 15! In 6 1/3 innings, he’s allowed 25 base-runners. Batters are hitting over .400 against him. Hat tip to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s blog for the information.
