Aaron Civale Says He Wants to Continue Starting — Even if It Means Trade From Milwaukee
- After being shifted from the starting rotation to a relief role in 2025, Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Aaron Civale, who turned 30 on Thursday, has asked the team to trade him.
- The Brewers shifted Civale to the bullpen to make room for top pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski, prompting Civale and his agent Jack Toffey to explore trade opportunities to continue starting.
- Civale has a 40-37 MLB career record with a 4.06 ERA, and signed an $8 million contract to avoid arbitration before the season but strained his hamstring in his first start, missing nearly two months.
- Brewers manager Pat Murphy acknowledged that player dissatisfaction is common and highlighted Civale’s solid contributions, while Civale’s agent Toffey emphasized that the trade request was handled professionally and that Civale is not upset about the situation.
- Civale's trade request implies potential roster changes for Milwaukee and possible acquisition interest from teams like the Boston Red Sox, who need starting pitching and face rotation struggles in 2025.
