Murphy said yesterday that Yelich's back has not improved since he left a game last week.

The concerns about back issues for Yelich date back to when he was a minor leaguer in the Marlins organization. One of the reasons the Marlins traded him so early in his career (even before he was eligible for free agency) were concerns about this. They looked foolish in 2018-19, not so much sense (even though the prospects they got for Yelich turned out). None of the 4 guys (Brinson, Diaz, Yamamoto, and Harrison) are in the major leagues this year and have a combined WAR as major leaguers of -6.8 (that's a negative 6.8).

It's clearly going to prevent (and already has prevented) a Hall of Fame career from happening and the Brewers are on the hook at 26 million a year until after the 2028 season.
