After a late-inning bullpen breakdown, the Brewers made a series of roster moves prior to today’s game against the Tigers. They designated Javy Guerra for assignment and placed Matt Bush on the 15-day IL with right rotator cuff tendinitis. To fill those spots that were cleared, the Brewers recalled Jake Cousins and selected the contract of Alex Claudio from Triple-A Nashville.
Javy Guerra had been acquired by the Brewers in the offseason by a trade with the Rays. They sent a PTBNL (Victor Castaneda) to the Rays in return. Guerra struggled through the spring with 7 earned runs allowed in 5.
