ESPN.com is reporting that the Milwaukee Brewers are planning to announce that Ken Macha will be the Brew Crews new manager. The official announcement could come later today, according to ’sources’ cited by ESPN. Macha last managed in 2006 with the Oakland A’s and was fired after the A’s were bounced from the 2006 ALCS by the Detroit Tigers.

Other names that had been in the running for manager were former Mets manager Willie Randolph and former Arizona Diamondbacks manager Bob Brenly.
