According to FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal, the Brewers are discussing a minor league deal with Lyle Overbay.

Rosenthal says Overbay is also drawing interest from other major league teams and is expected to decide on one soon. He would serve as insurance at first base in Milwaukee behind Mat Gamel, who will be the starter until Corey Hart recovers from knee surgery. Overbay, 36, hit .259/.331/.397 in 131 plate appearances last season between the Diamondbacks and Braves.
