Brewers Designate Deolis Guerra For Assignment

By Mark Polishuk | January 30, 2020 at 2:38pm CDT

The Brewers have designated right-hander Deolis Guerra for assignment, as per a team press release.  The move creates a roster spot for David Phelps, whose one-year deal with Milwaukee is now official.

Guerra re-signed with the Brewers on a Major League contract earlier this winter, after being outrighted off the team’s 40-man roster during the season.  Guerra pitched in only one game and 2/3 of an inning for the Brewers in 2019, allowing four runs in that brief cameo.  That ugly outing was countered by some outstanding numbers at the Triple-A level, as Guerra posted a 1.89 ERA, 5.50 K/BB rate, and 11.9 K/9 over 66 2/3 relief innings.

While the 30-year-old Guerra had an age and experience advantage over much younger Triple-A batters, his performance was particularly impressive given that 2019 was by far the biggest-hitting season in the history of Triple-A baseball.  Another team could be intrigued enough by those minor league stats to pluck Guerra off the DFA wire, or he could remain in Milwaukee’s farm system once again as a depth option.

Over 95 2/3 career Major League frames with the Brewers, Angels, and Pirates, Guerra has a 4.52 ERA, 3.41 K/BB rate, and 7.1 K/9.

    Part of the Santana trade!!

    February 2, 2008: Traded by the New York Mets with Carlos Gomez, Philip Humber and Kevin Mulvey to the Minnesota Twins for Johan Santana.

      Humber has got to be one of the top 5 all time most unlikely perfect game pitchers. Don Larson in World Series obviously number one, but what are some other favorites out there guys?

        Not that anyone cares about my fantasy baseball teams but I picked up Humber for a spot start that day.

        Dallas Braden throwing one on Mother’s Day with the grandmother who raised him was an especially inspiring story.

        Dennis Martinez was not an unlikely candidate, though I liked his national hero back story and in the days before advanced metrics sensed like a lot of fans that Martinez was much better than his (traditional) stats indicated at the time.

    Seems like a reunion with the Pirates could be in order.

    Chance for the Twinkies to swoop in and FINALLY try to recoup SOMETHING from the Santana trade to the Mets.
