Brewers Josh Maciejewski Agree To Minor League Dea

The Brewers are in agreement with left-hander on a minor league contract, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2. Hed elected minor league free agency after being outrighted by the Yankees last September. Maciejewski, 29, was a 10th-round pick by New York in 2018. Despite the modest draft position, he pitched his way to Darius Vines Jersey the majors after six seasons in the Yankees farm system. Maciejewski made four appearances in pinstripes last year, working seven innings of two-run ball. He struck out seven while i suing a pair of walks. While he pitched well in his small big league sample, he had le s interesting numbers in the upper minors. The 63 southpaw divided his time between Double-A Somerset and Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Maciejewski started 13 of 26 appearances between the two levels. He to sed 73 innings with a 5.67 earned run average. He had a decent 22.7% strikeout percentage with a tolerable 8.9% walk rate. Opponents fared well when they put the ball in play, though, running a lofty .327 average on balls in play. That predictably had an impact on his bottom line results. Maciejewski had found better results in the minors in 2023. He combined for a 2.96 ERA over 45 2/3 frames between three levels that season. Hes capable of working multiple innings and has an even 4.00 earned run average over his minor league career. Maciejewski doesnt throw hard. He averaged 90.1 MPH on his sinker during his limited big league work; that checked in at 89.6 MPH during his Triple-A time. He has a low-80s changeup and mid-70s breaking ball to round out his arsenal. Maciejewski could vie for a long relief role in Pat Murphys bullpen at some point next season. Satchel Paige Jersey
