Great teammate, a great dude.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a bunch of factors. It never feels good, but that was pretty much the reason,&#8221; Gomes said, according to Matthew Moreno of Dodger Blue.<\/p>\n<p>Brasier was a big piece of the Dodgers&#8217; 2024 World Series run, where he was often called on to be the opener and get the game&#8217;s crucial first three outs. In eight appearances in the 2024 postseason, he recorded seven strikeouts over 9.0 innings.<\/p>\n<p>In 68 appearances with the Dodgers over the last two seasons, Brasier posted a 1.89 ERA and 68 strikeouts in 66 2\/3 innings.<\/p>\n<p>Brasier will likely be looking to clear waivers this offseason and potentially sign with another team for a league-minimum contract.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Los Angeles Dodgers have had no shortage of bullpen news this offseason, with the signings of Tanner Scott and Kirby Yates, and Blake Treinen also being&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":31181,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31180","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
