The Brewers currently sit at 12–10, trailing the Chicago Cubs (14–10) in the NL Central standings. With crucial games ahead, the team is looking to strengthen its rotation to stay competitive in the division.

According to the New York Post’s Jon Heyman, the Brewers are calling up Craig Yoho, a 25-year-old prospect who has yet to allow a run in the minors. “Brewers are calling up Craig Yoho, who has a 0.00 ERA in the minors as well as a cool name,” Heyman wrote on his X account.
