Brewers Select Easton McGee Option Tobias Myer

The Brewers announced three roster moves today, including the selection of s contract from Triple-A Nashville. To create space for McGee on both the 26-man and 40-man rosters, Milwaukee optioned right-hander to Triple-A, and moved lefty from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL. McGee has appeared in two Major League games during his pro career, pitching once apiece in both the 2022 and 2023 seasons. That resume wouldve likely been a lot longer if it hadnt been for a Tommy John surgery in May 2023 that ended up costing him the remainder of that season and most of 2024. The Brewers signed McGee to a two-year minor league deal following the 2023 campaign that allowed him time to recover from his surgery, and his mound work last year consisted of 33 1/3 innings in Milwaukees farm system. Now more fully back to good health, McGee has a 3.44 ERA acro s 18 1/3 innings with Triple-A Nashville in 2025. His 25.3% strikeout rate is solid but his 11.4% walk rate is on the high side, and significantly higher than McGees much better control numbers over Jean Segura Jersey the rest of his minor league career. McGee has worked only as a reliever this season but has a few multi-inning outings under his belt, so he can add a fresh arm and some length to Milwaukees pen. The Brewers used five different pitchers in Saturdays 7-0 lo s to the Twins, with starting pitcher Myers allowing four runs on 11 hits over just 3 2/3 innings of work. After an impre sive 2024 rookie season, Myers was optioned to Triple-A last week but then quickly recalled after went on the Brewers IL. The turn-around maybe didnt help matters given Saturdays results, and Myers now has a 4.95 ERA in 20 innings in 2025. Todays transaction probably paves the way for Myers to receive a bit of an extended stretch at Triple-A so he can get himself back on track in preparation for another recall later in the season. Thomas was selected away from the Cardinals in last Decembers Rule 5 draft, but the southpaw pitched just 5 2/3 innings over two appearances before elbow arthritis sent him to the IL in early April. The shift to the 60-day IL means that Thomas will now be out of action until at least the first week of June. Thomas would have to spend at least 90 days on the Brewers active roster for Milwaukee to gain his full rights, or else otherwise his Rule 5 status would carry over into the 2026 season.
