Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Aaron Civale is moving to a bullpen role for the first time in his seven-year career. His next move could be out of Milwaukee entirely.

In his rookie year with Cleveland in 2019, Civale notched a career-best 2.34 ERA in 10 starts, which he matched in 13 starts with the Guardians in 2023 before he was traded to the Rays midseason. Civale is on a one-year, $8 million contract before he becomes a free agent at the end of the season.

With the Brewers calling up top prospect Jacob Misiorowski, they had to move someone out of their starting rotation, and Aaron Civale was the choice.

The Brewers are now in the midst of making difficult decisions while they move around pitchers in the rotation and the bullpen.
