Thomas Pannone - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Goes three innings in loss Pannone (0-1) took the loss Wednesday against the Giants, allowing three runs (two earned) on three hits and two walks over three innings. He struck out two.

Impact Making his first appearance in the majors since 2023, Pannone got through the first inning unscathed before giving up a three-run homer to Daniel Susac in the second. Following Wednesday's spot start, the left-handed Pannone figures to head back to Triple-A Nashville, where he's posted a 3.96 ERA across 75 innings this season.

Called up for spot start The Brewers selected Pannone's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Pannone will start Wednesday's game in San Francisco, presumably just to give the regular members of the Brewers' rotation some extra rest. The left-hander has logged a 4.13 ERA and 57:22 K:BB over 72 innings this season with Nashville. Pannone will be making his first appearance at the major-league level since 2023.

Back in action at Triple-A Pannone (forearm) struck out a batter and allowed three hits and no walks over three scoreless innings Thursday in his season debut for Triple-A Nashville after being reinstated fr...

Impact Pannone sustained a left forearm flexor strain last spring and spent the entire 2025 campaign on Nashville's IL, and though his rehab bled into the start of 2026, he missed just a few weeks of the Triple-A season before slotting back into the rotation. The southpaw will serve as organization depth for the Brewers this season, but his lack of a 40-man roster spot makes it unlikely that he'll see action with the big club at any point.

Out with torn flexor tendon Pannone was diagnosed with a torn flexor tendon in his left forearm Saturday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact The 30-year-old suffered the injury last weekend and will be shut down from throwing for at least one month. Pannone could miss the first couple months of the season before taking the mound for Triple-A Nashville.

Dealing with forearm injury Pannone left during the first inning of Sunday's spring game against the Guardians due to a forearm injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Pannone struggled in his short outing Sunday, during which he allowed four runs (three earned) on six hits and one walk across just 0.1 innings before being pulled. He'll be evaluated over the coming days to determine the severity of the injury, but it's a setback in Pannone's quest of breaking into the Brewers' rotation following a solid 2024 season in Triple-A in which he posted a 3.54 ERA and 136:38 K:BB over 152.1 innings.

NRI deal from Milwaukee The Brewers signed Pannone to a minor-league contract Monday that includes an invitation to spring training, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Pannone last appeared in the majors in 2023 with the Brewers, allowing two runs over 2.2 innings. The left-hander spent the 2024 campaign at the Triple-A level split between the Cubs and Yankees organizations, holding a 3.54 ERA and 136:38 K:BB across 152.1 innings covering 30 starts. Pannone will likely begin the 2025 season in the Triple-A Nashville rotation.

Joins Bronx Bombers Pannone signed a minor-league contract with the Yankees on Friday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact The left-hander spent the first half of the season on a minor-league deal with the Cubs but was released earlier this week. Pannone posted an unremarkable 4.37 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 87:32 K:BB over 19 starts for Triple-A Iowa, and he'll now report to the Yankees' Triple-A affiliate in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Bound for Korea Pannone signed a one-year, $350,000 contract Thursday with the Kia Tigers of the Korea Baseball Organization.

Impact Pannone inked his deal with the KBO club one day after being granted his release from the Brewers, who had designated him for assignment last week. The 29-year-old southpaw made one relief appearance for the big club before being dropped from the Brewers' 40-man roster, but he was productive in a starting role at Triple-A Nashville this season, logging a 2.70 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 50:13 K:BB in 53.1 innings. He'll now head overseas on what's a much more lucrative deal than the minor-league contract he had been playing under in the Milwaukee organization.
