Inscription. Selected in the third round of the 1987 draft, Navarro spent his first six Major League seasons in Milwaukee, before making a brief return to the Brewers at the end of his career. A model of durability during the height of his Brewers stint, Navarro was one of only three A.L. pitchers to start more than 33 games in each season form 1991 through 1993. Best season came in 1992 when he won 17 games with a 3.33 ERA in 246 innings, helping lead the club to a 92-70 record and a second place finish in the A.L. East. Made baseball history after closing out a Brewers victory on July 19, 1990, joining his father, Julio, as the first father and son duo to each record a save at the Major League level.
