When the Brewers came away empty-handed in their pursuit of pitching at the non-waiver trade deadline, it was important to remember that some of those moves were still possible in August.
We’ve now seen our first such move — albeit a minor one — as the Brewers have reportedly claimed right-hander Jordan Lyles from the San Diego Padres.
Jordan Lyles will just beat the #Padres to Milwaukee. The #Brewers claimed the RHP off waivers and Padres letting him go. He just left Wrigley Field.
And Tyson Ross is going to pitch for the #Cardinals, who claimed him.
