The Milwaukee Brewers acquired right-hander Jake Woodford from the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for a minor league pitcher and cash on Tuesday.
Right-hander K.C. Hunt, 25, heads to the Rays after three seasons in the Brewers’ farm system.
Woodford, 29, was a non-roster invite to Tampa Bay’s spring training. He made four appearances (two starts) this spring and allowed one run on four hits in 7 1/3 innings, striking out five and walking two batters.
Woodford spent the 2025 season with the Arizona Diamondbacks, finishing 0-4 with a 6.44 ERA and three saves in 22 relief appearances.
He is 10-17 with a 5.10 ERA in 111 career games (25 starts) with the St. Louis Cardinals (2020-23), Chicago White Sox (2024), Pittsburgh Pirates (2024) and Diamondbacks.
Hunt went 7-9 with a 4.45 ERA in 121 1/3 innings with 43 walks and 122 strikeouts over 26 starts last season at Double-A Biloxi.
