Rays could not fix him. Maybe Brewers can..

It’s the kind of pitcher I had expected the Brewers would trade for. Someone below the top tier of starters available, but also controllable beyond 2024. Fedde would’ve been the top end of that market that I saw realistic, and someone like Cal Quantrill is what I had expected.
Civale fits that mould too. Also happened earlier than I had expected. 2022-2024 he has a FIP and xFIP just below 4, and an xERA even slightly better than that. Struggled a bit this year, but most of that seems due to an elevated HR/FB rate. Velo isn’t down or anything. Seems like someone who with a strong defense behind him and maybe some slight tweaks will be a good addition.
Now the only worry is that since he actually looks pretty good, has another year of control left, and the trade happened really early, is that he would cost a lot. I don’t think they’ll trade any of the true top prospects, but could still be a costly mix. I will be positive though!

Makes sense for the Brewers, given their desperately needed SP depth. Civale has had big HR issues this year, especially with his fastball. I’m curious to see what Milwaukee had to give up to get him.

Brewers have Joe Ross, Keuchel, and Civale on the roster now…. guess the year

Brewers are the Rays with a nicer stadium. They are both cheap as hell and like exchanging players with each other.

I would’ve done the Dallas Keuchel special of trading him for a dollar. He’s been god awful with us.

Brewers and Rays seem to like trading with each other. Adames and Feyereisen just off the top of my head.
