Wily Peralta is set to return soon to the Milwaukee Brewers rotation. As a pitcher who is viewed as the future ace, the Brewers are looking to have a pretty strong rotation going forward. With young arms that are excelling and Matt Garza who could be too expensive to move, the Brewers have no choice but to let Lohse go.
Earlier in the year our own Kyle Lesniewski wrote that this day could come this year for Lohse and it has finally arrived. While he could have been an arm to be moved earlier in the year, it seems hard to imagine that a starter who has struggled mightily all season would bring any value in a trade to a roster looking to improve.
