Misiorowski comes back out for the 6th inning for the first time this season. He walks the first batter. Second batter hit a fly out to the warning track in RF. Third batter hit what should have been a routine double play ball to 1B but Alex Hall threw the ball into LF. Should have been 6 scoreless in his first A+ start but alas it wasn't because of the error.
Brewers hitters have collectively faced by far the best defense in baseball this year. Opposing teams have 25 OAA against us. Second highest is only 13 OAA.

Probably no to 6-man rotation. I’m guessing Rea will get optioned because Teheran can’t. I also think if everyone else is healthy (including Woody) that Peralta will get a fake 15-day IL stint at some point to limit his innings.
I could definitely see Lauer being the in the bullpen as a swing man when they want to go 6 SP for a turn through the rotation, but I doubt they go full 6 man rotation.
1. Reds (Elly De La Cruz seems like a superstar already and that club is playing with a ton of energy)
2. Cardinals (on paper they seem the biggest threat but they just don’t seem to have it this year)
3. Pirates
4. Cubs
He might be 2nd in the NL in fWAR tomorrow. Corbin Carroll is going to run away with the award. He looks like a legit superstar, but with Wiemer's defense and baserunning, even a league average bat might get him near 4 fWAR
Bases loaded, 1 out down 3-1 in the final inning of the game and Jesus Chirinos has one of the least competitive AB you will ever see. Looks like he wanted to get back to the dugout as fast as he possibly could.
Really feels like things are coming together for Gasser. The results don't exactly scream great, but I think he's pitched very well in his last 4 starts. Tonight he was a couple infield singles and 90 EV HR away from a dominant start.
Honestly Brewers did pretty well for themselves in FA between Anderson and Miley. A lot of the bigger dollar FA signings haven't looked too good so far this year.
I think they can give him all the time in the world. (Lauer himself said he expects the rehab assignment to be longer). Teheran and Rea have both been solid as depth guys. Miley makes a rehab start on Sunday and has said he only expects himself to need the 1 rehab assignment. With Miley back in the next two weeks, Lauer can take all the time he needs.
