Faria was traded from the Rays to the Brewers on Wednesday in exchange for Jesus Aguilar, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
The Rays got the right-handed bat they were looking for in Aguilar, while Faria provides the Brewers with much needed pitching help. The 26-year-old Faria worked primarily as a starter in his first two seasons with the Rays, though he's strictly pitched out of the bullpen for Tampa Bay in 2019, compiling a 2.70 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and 11:7 K:BB in 10 innings. While the righty could be a future rotation candidate, he figures to assume a spot in Milwaukee's bullpen for now. Faria is under team control for the next four seasons, though he's out of options next year.
