Joba Chamberlain: Plans to retire
Chamberlain said Wednesday that he doesn't plan on pitching in the majors again, George King of the New York Post reports.
Chamberlain, who was released by the Brewers earlier in the year, will call it quits after 10 years in the majors. "No, it's time to be a dad," he told King when asked if he had one more try to get back to the big leagues in him. The 32-year-old compiled a 3.81 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and an 8.8 K/9 through 555.1 career innings.

Joba Chamberlain: Released by Milwaukee
Chamberlain was released by the Brewers on Wednesday.
Chamberlain, who registered a 2.25 ERA over 20 innings with the Indians last season, attended Brewers camp as a non-roster invitee, but the team couldn't find enough opportunities in Cactus League play for him to stake his claim to a bullpen spot. The 31-year-old will try to latch on with another organization, but may have to settle for a minor-league deal.

Brewers' Joba Chamberlain: Agrees to deal with Brewers
Chamberlain signed a minor league contract with the Brewers on Friday, Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports reports.
The former top prospect spent the first half of the 2016 season with the Indians, but he was designated for assignment in July after dealing with various ailments in the prior months. Chamberlain certainly isn't as highly touted as he once was, but he was able to compile a 2.25 ERA and an 8.1 K/9 during his brief time in Cleveland, so there's a chance he could land a spot in an inexperienced Milwaukee bullpen.
