Pulled from the oven just right. Trustworthy, fact-dense, deeply satisfying.
Summary
The Milwaukee Brewers have designated right-handed pitcher Jake Woodford for assignment. Woodford, 29, signed a minor league deal with the Rays in the offseason, triggered an upward mobility clause, and was flipped to the Brewers just before Opening Day. He had been working in a long relief role. In corresponding roster moves, the Brewers recalled left-hander Brian Fitzpatrick and right-hander Craig Yoho from Triple-A Nashville, and placed lefty DL Hall on the 15-day injured list with a left pectoral strain.
