Brewers' Martin Maldonado: Sitting out finale

Maldonado will yield Sunday's season-finale start behind the plate to Andrew Susac.

Analysis:

Susac will bat seventh for the Brewers, while Maldonado will finish the season having gathered just a .202/.332/.351 batting line with eight home runs over 76 games. It's unlikely he fits the mold of a starting catcher for the Brewers moving forward, and it wouldn't be surprising if he returns to a backup role in 2017.
