Brewers' 2026 trade deadline evaluation won't be complete until October

The Milwaukee Brewers activated their final trade deadline acquisitions in September, bringing pitcher JoJo Romero and catcher Bo Naylor into the fold. Romero, who was recovering from appendix surgery when acquired, has made two appearances and performed well, striking out a batter in a clean inning during his second outing. Starter Dustin May and pitcher Antonio Senzatela have posted ERAs of 6.41 and 4.63 respectively since the deadline, continuing a pattern of new pitchers struggling early in Milwaukee. The team's true evaluation of these deadline moves will depend on their performance in October, particularly May's role as a projected postseason starter with Brandon Woodruff unlikely to return.
