On April 8th, Milwaukee Brewers came off a 97-win season last year and went all in on trades to reload. They shipped Freddie Peralta to the New York Metz, Isaac Collins to the Kansas City Royals, and the Big Shocker, Caleb Durbin, plus a couple prospects. And a draft pick to the Boston Red Sox for Pitcher's Kyle Harrison, Shane Drowan, and Infelder, David Hamilton. A few months later, Drowan gets the call up and makes his big league debut right against the Red Sox, facing off in a wild full circle twist. He didn't shine though, lasting just two and two thirds innings with three hits, four walks, three earn runs, and only 28 strikes out of. 63 pitches. Beatwriters called it one of the worst command outings for Brewers' hurler in nearly two decades. Fans dream bigger for debuts, but the Brewers still see huge upside in this lefty, and the trades holding strong overall. Fans off to a hot start, five for 20 with a 500 on-base clip in seven run scored. Harrison's been sharp too, ten and one third innings over two starts, fourteen strikeouts,

just three walks. Meanwhile, Durbin's hitting a wall in Boston after they cast in on his hype. Looks like Milwaukee time that flipped perfectly, keeping the crew stacked and rolling deep into the season. This has been MLB News Today, powered by AI.
