Aaron Lee Brooks (born April 27, 1990) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Caliente de Durango of the Mexican League.

[1] They assigned him to the Omaha Storm Chasers of the Triple–A Pacific Coast League (PCL) at the start of the 2014 season.

On July 28, 2015, Brooks and teammate Sean Manaea were traded to the Oakland Athletics for Ben Zobrist.

[8] He pitched for the Colorado Springs Sky Sox of the PCL, and was promoted to the major leagues on August 30, 2018.

[9] The very next day, Brooks was designated for assignment by the Brewers, without appearing in a game, in order to make room on the roster for the team's acquisitions of Curtis Granderson and Gio González.

[10] On September 3, 2018, Brooks was traded to the Oakland Athletics in exchange for cash considerations, his second stint with the organization.

He was released by the team on August 9, 2021, after traces of marijuana were found in a vape pen he had ordered online.

[19] He spent the remainder of the campaign in Memphis, logging a 5–4 record and 5.56 ERA with 54 strikeouts in 69.2 innings of work.

[21] He spent the 2023 season with the Triple–A El Paso Chihuahuas, making 44 appearances and recording a 4.95 ERA with 51 strikeouts across 63+2⁄3 innings of work.

On May 15, the Athletics selected Brooks' contract to the major league roster and tabbed him as the starting pitcher for that day's game against the Houston Astros.
