Returning to rotation Thursday Houser (elbow) will be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Thursday's game against the Marlins, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact Houser needed just a couple weeks of rest to recover from the elbow swelling that sent him to the IL on Aug. 28. The 30-year-old right-hander carries a 4.58 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 77:28 K:BB in 90.1 innings this season with the Brewers.

Megill with a 1.08 ERA over his las 7 outings should be able to pitch 1 or 2 innings. I know some people didn't like this choice but I have no problems with it. Then Probably Collen Rea would be my guess.
I do have some concerns about Megill facing Arraez, but to be fair, I'd feel even less confident in Rea.
Luis Arráez is a .350 hitter so he has been hitting everyone. At least he only has 7 homeruns but you can pitch around one hitter if there is a man in scoring position. Soler is no pushover either but he has been slumping as of late.
The best hitters are usually the 1, 2, 3, 4 hitters so Megill will face them in the 1st and the Collen Rea will take over in the 2nd inning. That is my guess.
Your right. I see Monasterio moved to second base tonight in place of Turang. It looks like Counsell is grasping at straws for some reason??? He needs to relax and dance with who you brung you, barring injury or terrible play.
The Brewers are hoping to find lightning in a bottle with Josh Donaldson, who has a strong track record from previous seasons and could perhaps get some better fortune going forward. Owen Miller sent down to Nashville. I feel bad foe Owen Miller.
It would be nice to do to the Miami Marlins what we did to the Texas Rangers.
We also have a few players that played for the Marlins, including Craig Counsell.
Also, Brian Anderson, Christian Yelich, That is all I can think of for now.
Longest no hitter ever was 17 innings

Just got to my computer and you guys are all right. The Yankees looked lifeless today. They are the Padres of the East coast along with the Mets. All those high payroll teams are just terrible this year.
