The Brewers have made their big splash at the trade deadline. Long time closer Josh Hader, who has been considered a trade piece for the last couple seasons, has been traded to the Padres. The Brewers will receive four players in return, per Jeff Passan.
The return on Josh Hader to Milwaukee is significant: left-handed closer Taylor Rogers, lefty pitching prospect Robert Gasser, outfielder Esteury Ruiz and right-hander Dinelson Lamet, sources tell ESPN. Hader will be a free agent after the 2023 season.

Hader's 2022 season has been a solid season with one odd rough patch in early to mid July.
