Lance McCullers Jr. has been designated for assignment by the Milwaukee Brewers just 11 days after being acquired from the Houston Astros. The Brewers traded for McCullers, along with Colton Gordon, in exchange for Single-A prospect Jadyn Fielder. After a disappointing performance, including a 6.86 ERA and only 4 ⅔ innings pitched, McCullers’ struggles continued due to past injuries. He is in the final year of an $85 million contract, with Houston covering part of his salary.
