Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said he "likes what we're doing" with reliever John Axford, indicating he'll remain in an eighth-inning role rather that close in the wake of Jim Henderson's injury, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Axford has a 6.66 ERA but just a 3.18 mark with a 2.7 K/BB since his fifth appearance of the year. Although Roenicke was non-commital, it seems Francisco Rodriguez, who saved Saturday's game against Pittsburgh, is the most likely choice to close.
