Brewers Acquire Pitchers Shelby Miller, Jordan Montgomery From the Diamondbacks
MILWAUKEE COUNTY, WISCONSIN, JUL 31 – The Brewers strengthened their MLB-leading pitching staff by acquiring veteran pitchers Shelby Miller, with a 1.98 ERA this season, and Jordan Montgomery before the trade deadline.
- The Milwaukee Brewers acquired pitchers Shelby Miller and Jordan Montgomery from the Arizona Diamondbacks on July 31, 2025, in a trade announced just before the deadline.
- The trade followed Miller's forearm injury since July 5 and Montgomery's Tommy John surgery earlier in 2025, which sidelined both pitchers for the season.
- Miller, a 34-year-old right-handed reliever with a 1.98 ERA and 10 saves in 37 Diamondbacks appearances this season, is rehabbing at home and threw a bullpen session on July 25.
- Brewers GM Matt Arnold called Miller "a really good target and a nice fit" who could join the bullpen soon, while Montgomery, a 32-year-old starter, will miss the rest of the season.
- The Brewers maintained prospect capital by paying salary and sending a player to be named later or cash to Arizona, aiming to strengthen their bullpen and sustain a competitive team long term.
