Brewers Place Jhoulys Chacin On 10-Day Injured List

By Connor Byrne | July 25, 2019 at 3:11pm CDT

TODAY: The Brewers have officially announced Chacin’s IL placement.  A corresponding move will be announced tomorrow.

YESTERDAY: Brewers right-hander Jhoulys Chacin is on his way to the 10-day injured list with an oblique strain, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel tweets. It’ll be the second IL stint of 2019 for Chacin, who previously missed time with a lower back strain.

When healthy, the 31-year-old Chacin has been a major disappointment for the reigning NL Central champion Brewers, which is one of the reasons why they’re out of a playoff spot right now. At 54-50, they’re two games behind the division-leading Cubs and one back of the NL’s second wild-card spot. Chacin helped guide the Brewers to a playoff spot a year ago, but he has pitched to a woeful 5.79 ERA/5.70 FIP with 8.12 K/9, 3.96 BB/9 and a 37.4 percent groundball rate in 88 2/3 innings this season.

Chacin’s struggles are among the reasons Milwaukee’s a prime candidate to acquire rotation help in advance of the July 31 trade deadline. General manager David Stearns downplayed the possibility Tuesday, but the Brewers are now without two starters in Chacin and their No. 1, Brandon Woodruff. Worsening the Brewers’ situation, their main healthy options – Zach Davies, Chase Anderson and Gio Gonzalez – don’t inspire a great deal of confidence.

      Davies’ FIP is 4.40 and his SO9 is 5.9. If you think regression isn’t due, you’re crazy

    Ah, the travails of poor Brewers fans with the team owned by a CHEAP owner! They draw well, where does all the money go?

      Cheap owner? $128M payroll in the smallest MLB market, and after putting $50M into Arizona facility upgrades. And basically triple the payroll from the days when Bud Selig owned the team. It’s all about the broadcast revenue, and this is just not a major TV market. That’s the reality.

        Great post Cheeseman. It’s unbelievable how quickly people forget about Selig and his terrible ownership. It really makes me appreciate Mark Attanasio. He is definitely NOT a cheap owner.

        If people want to remember “cheap”, just check out the teams Selig fielded right after Miller Park first opened, built with taxpayer dollars, and giving his fans the lowest payroll in baseball!

        I think our current owner is fantastic.

      WORST TV contract in baseball and one of the lowest naming rights on the stadium (til the new deal kicks in). Attendance figures are nice, but that’s not where the big money comes from.

    Brewers are a major disappointment to fans after last season’s success. So many players unexpectedly underachieved ruining the Brewers chances. Many of these players will not be back. Stearns either finds some quality starters or the season is over soon. Worst rotation in NL now.

      Don’t really agree that “so many players unexpectedly underachieving” is the issue. LY, most overachieved, so most were expecting a regression. The main issue, IMO, is that they’ve never addressed the SP issue. They always think a middling rotation, full of #4 and 5’s, will be good enough.

        Shaw, Cain, and Aguilar all were starters and all underachieved significantly. It put holes in the offense and led to many losses in the first half. The starting pitching deficiencies were big too and have hurt the whole time.

          Last year was Aguilar’s first season as an everyday starter. Hard to say he underachieved this year when he’s 29 and has only had a half season of success under his belt.

          He regressed badly, the data supports it. It started in August of last season

          Regressing isn’t necessarily underachieving though, especially if you haven’t been successful long enough to have established a norm.

          He has 35 hrs and 108 RBIs. I would say it is a serious regression

          Clearly, you’re not understanding my point because you keep repeating the same thing over and over again even though I’ve made it clear I’m not talking about regression.

          I didn’t say he didn’t regress, I said he didn’t necessarily underachieve.

          Underachieving requires you to have established a career norm. 1/2 a season of success is not an established career norm.

          If I’m a player who started out my career with 5 consecutive seasons of below average play. Then one year, I break out in a big way and have a career year. The following year, my numbers are back to being more consistent with my first five years of mediocre play. Did I regress from the previous season? Yes. Did I underachieve? No, because I’ve returned to my average expected output.

      You could say many of the same things about both the Cubs and Cardinals. The division is still wide open, not to mention the clusterfudge of the NL Wild Card race. The Brewers are far from finished.

      We’ll see how well these teams can upgrade over the next week, which could have a much bigger impact on the NL playoff race than usual.

      not enough, erceg can’t hit AAA pitching, his value is minimal. grisham is finally having a good year but needs to be more consistent. Detroit would laugh at that offer, they don’t need to deal him unless someone overpays and that’s not even close.

    For a guy who has never had an era under 3? No thanks. That’s a package that gets mad bum or stroman. This didn’t hurt us in any way. Time to bring up Trey Supak and bring in stroman and will Smith and we’ll be right back in contention, especially in this crappy division

    To buy or to sell…. Chacin sure isn’t having a great year, but the crew is running out of arms fast, and they have a couple of veterans that could be traded to boost the farm system some.

    OK, full disclosure: I am a 50+ year Indians fan.

    This isn’t going to happen, but desperate times call for desperate measures.

    The Indians may very soon have a surplus of starting pitching (Kluber coming back, Salazar out on rehab).

    Trevor Bauer, Yu Chang Richie Palacios, and Jason Kipnis (with the Indians picking up the rest of his salary) for Keston Hiura and Trey Supak.

      100% pass. Bauer is good but he is not Tor material. Being the best pitcher on a bad rotation doesn’t make you an ace talent.
