The Milwaukee Brewers made three additions off the waiver trade market on August 31st. Two of those players - Xavier Cedeno and Curtix Granderson - have already had some impactful moments of their own. Later today, the most expensive acquisition of the trio, Gio Gonzalez, will finally get the opportunity to make his team debut when he toes the rubber to start tonight’s game against the Giants.
Gonzalez (who turns 33 later this month) has been one of the top left-handed pitchers in baseball for last decade. Since debuting with the Athletics in back in 2008, Gio has appeared in 308 games and tallied 1,788.
