Brewers option Jake Faria to San Antonio, call up Ray Black

The third pitcher acquired by the Brewers at the trade deadline is getting ready to make his Brewers debut.

Ray Black is being called up from Triple-A. Jake Faria, another one of the deadline acquisitions, will swap places with Black and head back to San Antonio.

Black has performed well in a short sample in San Antonio. In 4 appearances over 4 innings pitched, he’s struck out 5 and walked just one batter and has not given up any hits or runs. His big arm and 100 mph fastball could be a welcome addition to the Brewers’ bullpen.
