Brewers let him go. This is an elite arm and is only 25.

Phil Bickford. Now ! Make it happen.

Just for future clarification (if necessary; from a Brewer chat board):

Bickford is not out of options. any team who acquires him can option him back and forth this year, and he will enter 2022 spring training with one option remaining.
---------------------------------------

Interesting note: Bickford has never pitched at the AA or AAA levels.

Question for @PIP : The Brewers are a team looking for more pitching (back of rotation & bullpen). Even with those needs the Crew has DFA'd Bickford (who still has options remaining). Its not like Bickford has had great success at the MLB level (2 gms, 2 IP, Whip of 3.5 over 2020 & 2021). Why do you think the Tribe needs to be claiming him instead of looking at other internal options (Moss/ Morgan/ etc)??
 
That’s an excellent question.

I just have that much faith in Carl Willis.
