McGee

McGee gets the heave-ho from the roster after the Brewers activated LHP Rob Zastryzny from the 15-day injured list. McGee could be an option when rosters expand in the coming days.

McGee gets the call to bolster Milwaukee’s bullpen with Chad Patrick heading back to the minors and Grant Anderson heading to the injured list. The 27-year-old righty has posted a lackluster 7.36 ERA across 11 innings (seven appearances).

McGee has allowed nine runs on 12 hits in 11 innings for the Brewers this season. Optioning him to Triple-A will open up a roster spot for Shelby Miller, who is expected to be activated off the 15-day IL.

A fresh arm for the Milwaukee pen. McGee has made five appearances for the team this season and allowed two runs in seven innings.

McGee has made four appearances with the Brewers this season, posting a 3.00 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and a 5/3 K/BB ratio over six innings of work. No word yet on a corresponding move just yet, the Brewers will ride it out over the All-Star break before setting their roster before opening the second half of the season against the Dodgers in Los Angeles on Friday.

McGee, who is being recalled for the third time, has allowed one run over four innings for the Brewers this season. He had a 4.55 ERA and a 31/13 K/BB in 27 2/3 innings for Nashville.

McGee gets the demotion just two days after the promotion to make room for Jacob Misiorowski. McGee could be back as a bullpen option at some point this summer.

McGee’s return provides Milwaukee with some extra bullpen depth heading into Tuesday’s showdown against Atlanta. The 27-year-old righty has made only one relief appearance this season in the big leagues.

McGee was up with the Brewers for a couple of days to add a fresh arm to the bullpen, but with Aaron Civale returning to start on Thursday he was the odd-man out on the pitching side. The 27-year-old hurler threw one perfect inning with a strikeout in his lone appearance with the Brewers. He should get another opportunity in Milwaukee before the summer is through.

McGee returns to the big leagues prior to Sunday’s game against the Twins for the first time since the 2023 campaign when he suffered an elbow injury during his season debut with the Mariners that ultimately required Tommy John surgery. The 27-year-old righty has looked sharp in 13 relief appearances this season at the Triple-A level and figures to pitch in long relief out of Milwaukee’s bullpen.
