PHILADELPHIA – Tristan Peters says he’s unaware of the hand-wringing that will take place in Milwaukee on July 14 when he takes the field in the All-Star Game as a rookie. That’s probably for the best.
Peters’ selection to the midsummer classic at Citizens Bank Park is the latest and greatest development in a long, winding journey for Peters that involved playing for the Savannah Bananas and beginning his professional career with the Milwaukee Brewers.
Peters, a seventh-round pick in the 2021 draft and now with the Chicago White Sox, was a part of the final big-league trade David Stearns made as the head of baseball operations for the Brewers. In the final hour before the 2022 trade deadline, Milwaukee flipped Peters, then at Class High A Wisconsin, for reliever Trevor Rosenthal.
Rosenthal never threw a pitch for the Brewers.
“No, I haven’t heard,” Peters said July 13 of the reaction to the trade. “I haven’t really looked into it.”
