Brewers DFA Lance McCullers Jr. After Brief, Ineffective Stint
Milwaukee designated the veteran righty for assignment less than two weeks after trading for him, with Garrett Stallings recalled in a corresponding move.
The Brewers designated Lance McCullers Jr. for assignment, per the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. McCullers was acquired from Houston on July 15 alongside Colton Gordon in exchange for minor leaguer Jadyn Fielder. He made two bullpen appearances for Milwaukee, allowing 5 runs (2 earned) over 4 2/3 innings, including a 4-walk outing on July 25. Garrett Stallings was recalled in the corresponding roster move, leaving Milwaukee's 40-man at 38.
