Proposed Brewers signing sees Milwaukee sign $61 million All-Star, former Cy Young candidate to replace Freddy Peralta originally appeared on The Sporting News .

They’ve now basically handed the keys to Jacob Misiorowski to be their new All-Star ace, but they still have to fill the hole in the rotation that Peralta left. While they are loaded with young arms to take his place, getting a veteran might be a better idea, to mentor all of them and hold a key spot in the rotation. FanSided’s Robert Murray also believes so, and speculates that the Brewers get probably the best pitcher left on the market in Lucas Giolito.
