We’ll track the day’s minor moves in this post …
- The Brewers announced that Alec Asher was outrighted after recently being designated for assignment. That’s the second time this year the Milwaukee organization has sent Asher to Triple-A after he cleared waivers. He can choose instead to go into free agency now or at the end of the season. Asher, 26, has spent most of 2018 at Triple-A, where he owns a 5.42 ERA with 39 strikeouts and 32 walks in 88 innings.
- Likewise, the Yankees say they outrighted veteran righty George Kontos, who was also in DFA limbo. As with Asher, he can elect the open market now or later. Kontos has seen time with three MLB teams this year, most recently making only a single appearance in New York. The eight-year veteran carries a 4.39 ERA with 5.1 K/9 against 2.4 BB/9 in 26 2/3 innings in the majors this season.

Seriously ….why did the Yankees buy this guy from Cleveland ?
What was the thought process – I truly cannot figure it out ?
Anybody have an idea what the plan was ?

Not sure what the point of your post is. Brennan was leaking classified information to the press. That’s grounds for losing your clearance.

Wait, 5.42 ERA in AAA? Wow. No wonder he doesn’t stick in the bigs

In his defense, Colorado Springs is a tough spot to pitch in and even guys Hader struggled there as prospects. Alec Asher isn’t good, but his ERA in Colorado Springs isn’t why.
