This is remarkably lacking in context.The brewers didn’t acquire him to be the starter, they acquired him because they traded away their pretty good starter in Jean Segura in order to start Orlando Arcia, who fell flat on his face hitting .194 and was sent to the minors. Saladino was an emergency need because the Brewers made a bad decision and it bit them in the ass(see, other teams do It too, not only the white sox)
and they acquired Saladino for next to nothing because SALADINO WAS HORRIBLE LAST SEASON, and he was injured, and he is an older player.
