The Brewers despatched righty Julio Teheran outright to Triple-A Nashville, based on the transaction log at MLB.com. Milwaukee had designated the veteran for project final week.
Teheran going unclaimed on waivers was a digital lock. He’s headed again to free company at season’s finish and wouldn’t have been eligible for postseason play with one other staff. There was no incentive for anybody else to say him. Teheran has greater than sufficient expertise to reject the project and hit the open market a pair weeks early, although he may elect to stay with the group on the prospect they’d resolve to name upon him throughout a playoff run.
The 32-year-old signed a giant league contract with Milwaukee in Might. It marked his return to the majors after spending 2022 in impartial ball and the Mexican League. Teheran logged 71 2/3 innings throughout 14 appearances, his heaviest MLB workload since a 2019 season that marked the top of a nine-year run in Atlanta. He supplied the Brew Crew with a 4.40 ERA, hanging out a below-average 17.4% of opponents however limiting his walks to a meager 4.5% clip. Teheran ought to discover some curiosity as a depth starter this offseason, although it could be restricted to minor league presents.
Milwaukee will open their Wild Card Sequence in opposition to Arizona tomorrow with Corbin Burnes in opposition to rookie Brandon Pfaadt. They’d appeared set to show to Brandon Woodruff to oppose Zac Gallen in Sport 2 earlier than the unlucky revelation that Woodruff would miss the collection (a minimum of) with a shoulder difficulty. Their starter for Wednesday’s contest remains to be listed as TBD, although Freddy Peralta appears the doubtless selection. Wade Miley, Adrian Houser and Colin Rea could be the highest choices if the Brewers wished to carry Peralta for a possible Sport 3 matchup with Arizona’s Merrill Kelly.
