Brewers Bet Big on Cooper Pratt with Eight-Year Extension
The Milwaukee Brewers are reportedly finalizing an eight-year, $50.75 million extension for 21-year-old shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt, with two club options (~$15M per year) and escalators, keeping him under team control for about a decade even if he spends time in the minors. Pratt, a Boras client who has not yet played in the majors and just debuted at Triple-A, is the rare pre-arbitration extension for a top prospect, signaling Milwaukee’s belief in his future defense and potential offensive development. The deal could affect 40-man roster moves and arbitration timing, and may influence infield planning with Turang, Ortiz, Made, Pena, and Williams, possibly shaping future trades if infield logistics change.
Brewers Land Luis Matos in Cash Deal with Giants
The Milwaukee Brewers acquired outfielder Luis Matos from the San Francisco Giants for cash considerations, designating Sammy Peralta to open a 40-man spot.

Brewers Place Jackson Chourio on IL with Left-Hand Fracture
Milwaukee placed Jackson Chourio on the 10-day IL with a hairline fracture at the base of his left hand, with an estimated 2–4 week return; Blake Perkins was recalled to start in the outfield as the Brewers shuffle a depth-filled group that includes Frelick, Mitchell, Yelich, Bauers and Lockridge, and may lean on prospects Tyler Black or Jett Williams if more help is needed.
Brewers add Woodford to bolster pitching depth
Milwaukee acquired right-hander Jake Woodford from Tampa Bay under an upward mobility clause in his minor-league deal, sending right-hander K.C. Hunt to the Rays and placing Akil Baddoo on the 60-day injured list to clear a 40-man spot. Woodford, who flashed earlier with St. Louis but has struggled of late, could stick on the active roster if he recovers his velocity (around 93–94 mph in spring) and form, giving Milwaukee added pitching depth; the Rays gain a depth prospect in Hunt while Milwaukee reshuffles its outfield with Chourio, Frelick and Mitchell in the mix.

Brewers land Harrison and Hamilton in surprise trade with Red Sox

The deal reshapes Milwaukee’s infield and leaves the third-base spot uncertain heading into 2026.
