Sergio Mitre Traded Back To Yankees From Brewers

For the Brewers, it isn’t much of a return, but for the Yankees, Mitre isn’t much of a pitcher.

Mitre spent two seasons in New York as a swing man, posting a 5.03 ERA over 105-2/3 innings with a K/BB just over 2. With the Brewers this season, Mitre threw 33 innings over 22 games with a shiny 3.27 ERA, but behind that ERA were just 14 strikeouts to go with ten walks, so it’s not like Mitre has been especially effective. Which, duh. If he had been especially effective, he wouldn’t have been designated for assignment.
