3 years agoMilwaukee Brewers relief pitcher John Axford (elbow) will not pitch again in 2021 after suffering an elbow injury on Monday, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Manager Craig Counsell said that results of testing on Axford's elbow revealed significant structural damage, and he is currently weighing his options for treatment. It ended up being a very brief return to the majors for Axford, who had not played since 2018 where he split the season with the Blue Jays and Dodgers. It was unlikely any manager had picked him up given how short a time he was around, but needless to say he can be left on the waiver wire.--Michael Grennell - RotoBaller
