The top two pitchers in the free agent market -- Craig Kimbrel and Dallas Keuchel -- have stayed there nearly three weeks into the start of the regular season. With the calendar continuing to turn, the pair of pitchers, and their agents, remain in negotiations with teams to get on the mound this season. As their demands and leverage drop, the Brewers remain in talks with their representation to get a deal done. According to MLB Network's Jon Morosi, the Crew isn't just a team in the mix, they're a team that makes sense:

Craig Kimbrel moving "closer" to a free-agent decision, source says, but his most likely destination remains unknown. #Brewers' motivation to sign Kimbrel hinges in part on Jeremy Jeffress, who returns to active roster today. Story: https://t.co/BJEKyO0vCJ @MLB @MLBNetwork

Both could provide a lift to their respective parts of the pitching staff if they can deliver the way they have in recent years.
