PHOENIX, Ariz. (CBS 58) --For new Brewers closer, Trevor Megill, there will be no mean mug or nasty demeanor for him. He just wants to ease into the closer's role and do the job.

"Just kind of jog out there and try to get it done quick," Megill said.   "I don't know about all the other stuff.

"You're not into all the histrionics and all the whatever, hype?" CBS 58's Lance Allan asked.

"I mean it's cool," Megill said. "Whatever they want to come up with for me I mean it's cool. But I'm just out there to do three outs and get back in there soon."

"In the 8th inning if you give a little bit up? Your team can come back, and you can still win the game," said Pat Murphy, Brewers manager.  "In the 9th when you give it up? Ah. You gotta live with that for 24 hours.  But I think the experience of doing it. What serves you the best. Everybody might be a little different. Somebody might be the Mad Hungarian. And somebody might be like Eck. Cool as a cucumber."

Trevor's younger brother, Tylor, is a pitcher for the Mets. Sometimes he watches videos of him and teases him a little bit like an older brother would. Other times, he helps him with just the little nuances of the major league game.
