The Milwaukee Brewers are pursuing New York Mets pitcher Clay Holmes as the trade deadline approaches. The Mets, currently selling players, have already traded several pitchers, including Freddy Peralta and A.J. Minter. Holmes, who is on a rehab assignment after a fibula injury, posted a 2.39 ERA in nine starts this season. With the Brewers' strong rotation and the need to compete with teams like the Los Angeles Dodgers, acquiring Holmes could enhance their chances in the postseason.
