The Milwaukee Brewers have traded right-hander Aaron Civale and cash to the Chicago White Sox for first baseman Andrew Vaughn.
The Brewers moved quickly after they announced they were removing Civale from their rotation. The pitcher said Thursday he wanted to remain a starter even if it meant leaving Milwaukee.
One day later, Civale was traded. The Brewers also are sending $807,000 to the White Sox as part of the deal.
“We’re exploring opportunities for me to get back into a rotation, whether that’s here or elsewhere,” Civale said Thursday on his 30th birthday. “That type of decision is out of my hands. We’re exploring the options to give me the chance to do what I do best, and that’s to go out there and start.”
Civale is 1-2 with a 4.91 ERA this season. He has allowed seven runs over 19 innings in four starts since returning from the injured list May 22 after dealing with a strained left hamstring.
The Brewers took Civale out of their rotation because they had a surplus of starters after promoting prospect Jacob Misiorowski, who threw five innings of no-hit ball while helping Milwaukee beat the St. Louis Cardinals 6-0 in his major league debut Thursday.

Milwaukee’s rotation also includes Freddy Peralta (5-4, 2.69 ERA), Jose Quintana (4-1, 2.66 ERA), Quinn Priester (4-2 3.65 ERA) and Chad Patrick (3-6, 3.25 ERA).
Although Civale pitched in relief in two postseason games — one in 2022 with Cleveland and another last year in Milwaukee — all of his regular-season appearances in the major and minor leagues have come in a starting role. Civale, who is 40-37 with a 4.06 ERA in 122 career big league starts, is making $8 million this year and is eligible for free agency at the end of the season.
The Brewers acquired Civale in a July trade with the Tampa Bay Rays, who got him in a 2023 trade-deadline deal with the Cleveland Guardians.
Civale becomes the third former Brewer to join the White Sox in the last month. The White Sox also claimed infielder Vinny Capra off waivers from the Brewers and signed pitcher Tyler Alexander after Milwaukee designated him for assignment.
The 27-year-old Vaughn, who has also made big-league starts in right and left field, hit .189 with a .218 on-base percentage, five homers and 19 RBIs in 48 games with Chicago before he was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte on May 23. He will report to the Brewers’ Triple-A Nashville affiliate.

He has a career average of .248 with a .303 on-base percentage, 77 homers and 293 RBIs in 610 games for the White Sox, who selected him out of the University of California with the third overall pick in the 2019 draft.
In other moves Friday, the Brewers recalled right-hander Grant Anderson and outfielder Drew Avans from Triple-A Nashville. Outfielder Daz Cameron was placed on the paternity list.

PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADEMotivos de recusa ao SantosSegundo Lucas Musetti, Sampaoli deixou de fechar com o Santos porque o clube negou a contratação de Bakambu e Matheus Jesus.

Could Shohei Ohtani pitch in relief in October? Here’s what it would take
DENVER — Is there a scenario where Shohei Ohtani is pitching in relief for the Los Angeles Dodgers this postseason?“Absolutely,” pitching coach Mark Prior told the Dan Patrick Show on Wednesday morning, though Prior clarified Wednesday afternoon that the discussions the organization has had about it have been limited solely to clarifying the language of the rulebook and Ohtani’s ability to remain in the game as a hitter in such a scenario.AdvertisementMajor League Baseball’s “Ohtani Rule,” which was written for the 2022 season, specifies that a starting pitcher can remain in the game as a designated hitter even after being removed from the game as a pitcher. That does not apply the same way if the pitcher entered in relief; if Ohtani starts a game as a designated hitter and enters the game to pitch, removing him would mean taking […]
Internacional x Flamengo sofre atraso causado por papel picado e revolta torcedores: “Tinha que punir”
Internacional x Flamengo sofreu atraso (Reprodução)Marcando presença em peso no Beira-Rio, a torcida do Internacional acabou atrapalhando o início do embate contra o Flamengo. Devido à “chuva” de papel picado que veio de forma excessiva, a bola não rolou às 21h30 por conta das condições do campo. Neste cenário, o atraso da partida motivou uma série de críticas envolvendo os colorados. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADEPor conta da expectativa ligada ao duelo, a aplicação de uma multa como forma de punir o comportamento da torcida do Internacional ganhou ênfase. Levando em conta a tolerância praticamente zero da Conmebol com atrasos na Libertadores, a tendência é que, de fato, o clube gaúcho enfrente uma sanção financeira.Diante da situação inusitada, a atitude para aumentar o nível da festa foi vista como uma grande falta de responsabilidade.

Skyy Moore trade: Chiefs reportedly send former second-round pick to 49ers, who get much-needed help at WR
Getty Images Skyy Moore is going from one perennial playoff team to another. The Kansas City Chiefs have traded the former second-round pick to the San Francisco 49ers, according to NFL Media. As part of the trade, the two teams will reportedly swap sixth- and seventh-round picks in the 2027 NFL Draft. The trade is a win-win for Moore and the 49ers. Moore gets a fresh start with a playoff contending team, while the 49ers are getting much-needed help at receiver. San Francisco is slated to start the season without wideouts Brandon Aiyuk and Demarcus Robinson. Aiyuk is still recovering from last year's season-ending knee injury while Robinson is suspended three games for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Jauan Jennings, the team's second-leading receiver last season, recently suffered a calf injury and has reportedly expressed an interest in being traded if the team doesn't […]
Lionel Messi misses out on Inter Miami’s crucial Leagues Cup clash vs. Tigres: Cause for concern?
Getty Images Facing Tigres in the quarterfinals of the Leagues Cup, Inter Miami are without their talisman, Lionel Messi, who has been left out of the squad after missing training on Tuesday. Wednesday night's critical clash will see one team advance to the final four teams standing in the competition, but Javier Mascherano has needed to be careful with the Argentine after he already missed two matches due to muscular issues. During the weekend, Messi logged 45 minutes facing the Los Angeles Galaxy, picking up a goal and an assist in victory for the Herons, but just four days later, he's out of the squad. It doesn't seem like a time to panic because with the addition of Rodrigo De Paul in midfield, Miami's squad has been strong enough to handle rotation due to De Paul already chipping in three assists […]
