Brewers acquire RHP Bryse Wilson from Pirates for cash
MILWAUKEE — The Milwaukee Brewers acquired right-handed pitcher Bryse Wilson from the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash on Wednesday.
It comes a week after the Pirates had designated Wilson for assignment.
Wilson, 25, went 3-9 with a 5.52 ERA while making 20 starts out of 25 appearances last season. He struck out 79 and walked 32 batters in 115 2/3 innings.
He owns a career record of 9-17 with a 5.54 ERA in 56 games, including 43 starts. Wilson has 162 strikeouts and 79 walks in 232 1/3 innings.
Pittsburgh acquired Wilson and right-hander Ricky DeVito from Atlanta in a July 2021 trade that sent right-hander Richard Rodriguez to the Braves.
The Brewers made room for Wilson on the 40-man roster by designating right-hander Trevor Kelley for assignment. Kelley, 30, went 1-0 with a 6.08 ERA in 18 relief appearances last season.
