There’s a strange kind of twist that shows up in baseball—when you do your job well and still get nudged out of your seat. The post Brewers Prospect Call-Up Leaves Demoted Aaron Civale on the Brink of a Major Decision appeared first on EssentiallySports.

The righty, who turned 30 on Thursday, did not take the demotion as a great birthday surprise, with Civale requesting a trade from the Brewers if he is not a part of the starting rotation. Murphy, however, told reporters that until then, he is going to pitch for the team.

The Milwaukee Brewers have traded right-hander Aaron Civale and cash to the Chicago White Sox for first baseman Andrew Vaughn.

With the Brewers calling up top prospect Jacob Misiorowski, they had to move someone out of their starting rotation, and Aaron Civale was the choice.
