Milwaukee Brewers' pitcher Zach Davies' agent Scott Boras said that the team disrespected Davies by demoting him to the minors before the All-Star break.
Davies was demoted to make room for Andy Wilkins on the Brewers' bench. Boras said about the incident: "... he was told he no longer was a member of the team. It's disrespect for someone who will be a principal part of the organization for years to come, to add a bench player for 10 days."
Davies ranks 101st in the majors with a 1.98 nERD, and despite a rise in ERA, he has been playing better than he did his rookie year. He owns a 4.19 SIERA, 19.80 percent strikeout rate and 6.70 percent walk rate all representing improvements.
