NOTES

Brewers: Closer Trevor Hoffman was placed on waivers and claimed by another team, but Milwaukee general manager Doug Melvin said yesterday he had not had any trade discussions involving the career saves leader. Melvin declined to say which club claimed the 41-year-old Hoffman, but ESPN.com reported it was the San Francisco Giants.

Cardinals: NL saves leader Ryan Franklin is negotiating a two-year contract extension that could allow him to end his career in St. Louis. The 36-year-old Franklin made the All-Star team for the first time this season, and is 34 for 36 in save opportunities with a 2-1 record and 1.07 ERA in his first full season as a closer.

Rays-Angels: Scott Kazmir has been traded from the Tampa Bay Rays to the Los Angeles Angels, giving the AL West leaders a major boost to their unsteady rotation. The Angels acquired Kazmir, a two-time All-Star last night for two minor leaguers and a player to be named.
