MILWAUKEE, WI (WSAU) The Baltimore Orioles have added a big arm to their rotation and the Brewers have dealt a star.
ESPN reports Baltimore acquired Corbin Burnes from the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for shortstop Joey Ortiz, left-handed pitcher DL Hall and the 34th overall pick in this year’s draft.
Burnes went 10-and-8 last season with a 3.39 ERA and 200 strikeouts in nearly 194 innings. The starter won the NL Cy Young award in 2021 after posting a 2.43 ERA and punching out 234 hitters in 167 innings.
He joins a Baltimore rotation that features top-end hurlers Kyle Bradish and Grayson Rodriguez.
