The Milwaukee Brewers are already demonstrating a willingness to engage in trades early in the season, following a precedent set last year with the acquisition of Quinn Priester. While their specific needs remain unclear, the team is likely to explore trade opportunities to bolster their roster.
Potential Pitching Options for Trades
Rob Zastryzny
Left-handed pitcher Rob Zastryzny appears to be the most likely Brewer to be traded. While recovering from a shoulder impingement, the Brewers may find his left-handedness redundant, especially with other options like DL Hall competing for a bullpen spot. If not Zastryzny, another left-handed reliever could be considered for a trade.
DL Hall
With a surplus of pitching depth, the Brewers might consider trading a young arm. DL Hall is a potential candidate, given the emergence of Brandon Sproat and Kyle Harrison. The team has significant starting pitching depth, making some arms expendable.
Position Player Trade Possibilities
Luis Lara
Identifying position player prospects available for trade is challenging. Key prospects like Jesús Made, Luis Peña, and Cooper Pratt are considered untouchable. While Jeferson Quero was previously an option, the Brewers may need him if they consider trading William Contreras. This leaves Luis Lara as a strong candidate, having impressed with his athleticism during spring training.
Lara could be a valuable asset in acquiring additional pieces to support a potential pennant push for the Brewers.
