No surprises in this round of cuts for the Brewers. Pannone might have had a slight chance of claiming a spot, but he’s dealing with an injury. Pratt, arguably the team’s best prospect, impressed by going 5-for-14 with three doubles.

Pannone spent 2024 in Triple-A with both the Cubs and the Yankees, posting a 3.54 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and 136/38 K/BB ratio in 152 1/3. The left-hander appeared in one game for the Brewers back in 2023 and has a 5.46 career MLB ERA in 118 2/3 innings.

It didn’t take Pannone long to find a new opportunity, latching on with New York as extra left-handed pitching depth, just a few days following his release from the Cubs. The 30-year-old lefty has posted a respectable 4.37 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 87/32 K/BB ratio across 90 2/3 innings (19 starts) this season at the Triple-A level.

The Rhode Island native inked a minor league pact with the Cubs last December and didn’t end up making it to Wrigley Field. The 30-year-old southpaw made one relief appearance last year for the Brewers and also made 49 appearances (13 starts) for the Blue Jays from 2018-2019. He posted a serviceable 4.37 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 87/32 K/BB ratio across 90 2/3 innings (19 starts) this season for Triple-A Iowa.
