05/09/2008 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Milwaukee Brewers announced on Friday that relief pitcher Derrick Turnbow has been outrighted to Triple-A Nashville.
Last Friday, the 30-year old righty was designated for assignment, which he opted to accept.
Turnbow was Milwaukee's closer for two years (2005-2006), having tied the franchise record for saves in a season in 2005 with 39, a record since broken by Francisco Cordero in 2007 (44). Turnbow was 7-1 with a 1.74 earned run average in 2005, but his production has slipped of late.
In eight games this year, Turnbow has a record of 0-1 with a 15.63 ERA. He's surrendered 11 runs on 12 hits in 6 1/3 innings, striking out five and walking 13.
The Brewers signed Turnbow to a three-year contract in 2006, a deal that expires at the end of the 2008 season.
The 30-year-old right-hander is 17-16 with a 4.30 ERA, 265 strikeouts and 65 saves in 257 games with the Angels and Brewers.
Turnbow was originally picked in the fifth round by Philadelphia in 1997 and was claimed off waivers from the Angels in October 2004.
In a corresponding move, outfielder Joe Dillon was recalled from Triple-A Nashville.

Dallas Cowboys 15-1 Super Bowl Odds With Romo, Owens Concerns
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
Here are the football odds as seen at MySportsbook.com and subject to change after February 10, 2007 if not locked in prior to that date.
