Brewers execute last-minute offseason trade with Rays for versatile right-hander

The Milwaukee Brewers are heading into the 2026 season with a talented but inexperienced pitching staff. Outside of Brandon Woodruff, who has battled several injuries over the last three seasons, the Brewers don't have a starting pitcher who has truly logged a full season of big-league work. Jacob Misiorowski, Chad Patrick, Kyle Harrison, and Brandon Sproat all have major league experience, but none of them has put together a full season of MLB starts.

The Brewers aren't worried about the lack of experience in their starting rotation; they're excited about it. But regardless of how much confidence Pat Murphy has in his starting staff, there's no question that concerns exist about the young starters' workload in 2026.
