McCullers, entering the final year of his $85M contract, has struggled this season with a high ERA and a history of injuries—including Tommy John surgery—yet still boasts elite talent, highlighted by his 2021 Cy Young contender season. The move could be a fresh start for McCullers and a bold gamble for Milwaukee, who’s looking to bolster their divisional race. The Astros’ return remains unknown, but this trade signals a pivotal moment in both teams’ futures. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
