Brewers shuffle pitching staff, call up Jacob Barnes, Aaron Brooks

With heavy bullpen usage, the Milwaukee Brewers reworked their roster ahead of today’s series finale in Cincinnati:

RHP Jacob Barnes has been recalled and RHP Aaron Brooks has been selected from Triple-A @skysox. RHP Freddy Peralta and RHP Taylor Williams have been optioned there. RHP Ariel Hernández was designated for assignment. The 40-man roster remains at capacity. pic.twitter.com/RUM7I7jv2S

So that’s Jacob Barnes and Aaron Brooks added to the pen, with recently claimed pitcher Ariel Hernandez DFA’d (who knows, he might be back - with teams bringing guys up on Saturday with roster expansion he might slip through).
