Brewers Face Roster Moves Amid Trade, Draft Decisions

The Milwaukee Brewers are navigating trade speculation and MLB Draft preparations as they approach a crucial stretch in the season. Outfielder Eddie Rosario has opted out of his minor league contract to become a free agent after not receiving a major league call-up. Trade rumors involve several Brewers, including ace Freddy Peralta, who remains unsigned despite interest in a long-term deal and is considered unlikely to be traded due to his value and contract. Jake Bauers and Aaron Civale have also emerged as possible trade candidates, with the team leveraging its pitching depth following the recent promotion of top prospect Jacob Misiorowski. In the upcoming MLB Draft, the Brewers are expected to consider high-upside prospects such as high school shortstop Daniel Pierce and college slugger Jace LaViolette with their 20th overall pick. The Brewers remain competitive in the NL Central, balancing immediate roster needs with long-term development.
