Brewers Trade Assets: Matt Garza

It's been an interesting ride with Matt Garza since the Brewers announced his record-breaking deal at the Brewers On Deck event in 2014. Brought in to lead anchor the pitching staff on a team desperately trying to hold their window open, Garza got off to a rocky start with a 4.84 ERA through the season's first two months. He was probably the only player not wildly outperforming expectations as the franchise got off to it's best ever start. He became the de facto ace Milwaukee was expecting him over the next two months and was on an absolute roll when he landed on the disabled list in August, a devastating blow to a fading team.
