Brewers closer John Axford battled control issues throughout the 2012 season, finishing the year with 39 walks in 69 1/3 innings. This spring has been a different story, as Axford has only walked one batter in 6 2/3 innings of Grapefruit League action, and that free pass came back in February. Axford also made two World Baseball Classic appearances for Team Canada without surrendering a walk. If he can put his control issues of 2012 behind him, Axford could be in for a nice rebound season.
