Veteran catcher Zaun to join Brewers
#1
MILWAUKEE -- Catcher Gregg Zaun and the Milwaukee Brewers have agreed to a one-year, $1.9 million contract that includes a club option for 2011.

The deal includes a $2.25 million option for 2011 with a $250,000 buyout, meaning Zaun is guaranteed $2.15 million.

The 38-year-old split last season with Baltimore and Tampa Bay, hitting a combined .260 with eight home runs and 27 RBIs in 90 games. He made a total of 74 starts behind the plate, including 49 games with the Orioles and 25 games with the Rays.

Zaun has a career batting average of .251 with 86 homers and 432 RBIs during 15 seasons with Baltimore, Florida, Texas, Kansas City, Houston, Colorado, Toronto and Tampa Bay.

Milwaukee agreed to a minor league contract with outfielder Trent Oeltjen, who was invited to major league camp.
