Report: Brewers decline $3.5 million option for Jordan Lyles

Today is the day most decisions have to be made on player options for the 2019 season. With Mike Moustakas and Joakim Soria choosing to decline their halves of their player options on Tuesday, that left the Brewers with two decisions to make on team options today -- Jeremy Jeffress and Jordan Lyles.

While we wait for word on the decision for Jeffress (that option will almost certainly be picked up), reports are that the Brewers are moving on from Lyles.

The Brewers acquired Lyles when they picked him up off of trade waivers from the San Diego Padres on August 5th, but the Padres let him go to the Brewers for nothing in return.
