Wes Obermueller who pitched parts of three seasons for Milwaukee and broke in with Kansas City, has been signed by the Orix Buffaloes of Japan's Pacific League.
Obermueller had been pitching for Richmond and had a 2.46 ERA in the early going. The PA announcer at the Osaka Dome is going to be working overtime to learn how to say "Obermueller".
Maybe I should tell them it's pronounced "ober-miller", similar to the Dodgers third baseman.
