List of former Tampa Bay Rays are still led by David Price, James Shields

in Sports by

Evidently, the Milwaukee Brewers are weary of Matt Garza. The Brewers told Garza to go home for the birth of his twins, and well, just to stay there. Evidently, Garza didn’t react well to being pulled from the rotation and didn’t want to pitch out of the bullpen. With $25 million due in his contract, odds are, he’ll be back.
