Ethan Small News
The San Francisco Giants acquired pitcher Ethan Small from the Milwaukee Brewers Monday for cash considerations, per NBC Sports Bay Area's Alex Pavlovic. The 26-year-old lefty spent most of his 2023 out of the bullpen with Triple-A Nashville, compiling a 3.18 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and 28.5% strikeout rate in 51 innings pitched. It remains to be seen what role the former first-round pick will play for the Giants, but his fantasy forecast is low for the time being.
Milwaukee Brewers left-handed pitcher Ethan Small has been designated for assignment. This move creates space on the 40-man roster for Joey Ortiz and DL Hall after they were acquired in exchange for Corbin Burnes on Thursday evening. Small is a former first-round pick but struggled in limited action over the last two seasons. Through 10.1 innings in the majors, he has allowed 10 earned runs and 10 walks while striking out 13 batters. He fared better at Triple-A but still posted a 1.26 WHIP and 4.24 BB/9 there last year. The Brewers will have one week to trade Small or place him on outright waivers. Given that he has one option remaining, it seems likely that teams with open 40-man roster spots will consider adding him, even if it means sending him to the minors.
Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said that left-hander Ethan Small will work as a long reliever in spring training, with his status as a lefty working in his favor. Small made two starts in his MLB debut in 2022 and allowed five earned runs on eight hits while walking eight and striking out seven in just 6 1/3 innings of work. It's a bit disappointing that Small won't be given a chance to earn a rotation spot with Aaron Ashby (shoulder) set to open the season on the injured list, but Small could earn that opportunity down the road if he makes the Opening Day bullpen and pitches well in a long-relief role. Other than Small, the Brewers only have left-handers Hoby Milner and Justin Wilson as candidates for their bullpen.
