  • Fires six shutout innings
    Peralta allowed four hits and two walks over six scoreless frames in a no-decision Friday. He struck out seven in the win over St. Louis.

    Advice: Peralta was in line for his third win of the year before the Cardinals tied the game in the bottom of the ninth inning. The 27-year-old has been terrific to begin the 2024 campaign, registering a 1.90 ERA with a 33:4 K:BB over 23.2 frames. He's forced double-digit whiffs in each of his four starts this season, including 13 on Friday. Peralta is lined up to start in Pittsburgh next week. Rotowire.com 10 minutes ago
     
  • Picks up first save
    Milner walked one and struck out two batters in one inning Friday. He earned a save against the Cardinals.

    Advice: Milner took the mound with a 2-1 lead in the 10th inning and finished off the contest despite facing a first-and-third threat. It was the 33-year-old's first career MLB save. He's produced a 7:3 K:BB with a 4.15 ERA through 8.2 innings this season,. Milner still appears to be outside the Brewers' main closer committee at this time. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
     
  • Blows save, earns win
    Payamps (1-1) recorded one out and walked one batter Friday. He earned a win over the Cardinals after blowing a save chance.

    Advice: Payamps entered the ninth inning with two runners on in a 1-0 game. After plunking Ivan Herrera to load the bases, he walked Brendan Donovan to let the tying run score. The Brewers would go on to win in the 10th innings, giving Payamps his first win of 2024. He's now sporting a 4.70 ERA with a 6:1 K:BB through 7.2 innings. Rotowire.com 25 minutes ago
     
  • Fans 10 in no-decision
    Flaherty allowed four runs (two earned) on four hits and a walk over six innings in a no-decision Friday. He struck out 10 during the win over Minnesota.

    Advice: Flaherty was tagged with a two-run shot in the first inning but turned in four shutout frames after that. The Twins later pushed across two unearned runs in the sixth. Flaherty's produced a terrific 30:3 K:BB through 24.1 innings this season. That 11.1 K/9 is currently a career-high and his first time producing a double-digit number in that category since the 2020 campaign. He also set a new season high with 19 whiffs. Flaherty is currently in line to take the mound in Tampa Bay next week. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago

  • Blake Perkins doubles twice against Cardinals
    Blake Perkins went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored in an extra-inning win over the Cardinals on Friday.

    Advice: Perkins was driven in by William Contreras after both two-baggers. The 27-year-old has been a pleasant surprise for the Brew Crew thus far, as he’s provided offensive value to go with his strong defense as seen in a slash of .341/.400/.537. It’s very hard to believe that what Parkins has done is sustainable, but so far so good. Rotoworld 41 minutes ago
     
  • William Contreras drives in game-winner in extras
    William Contreras drove in two runs including the game-winner in the 10th to give the Brewers a 2-1 win over the Cardinals on Friday.

    Advice: Contreras gets the better of big bro Willson Contreras on Friday night. The younger Contreras drove in Blake Perkins twice in the victory, and the second was the biggest; an RBI single in the 10th to ultimately give Milwaukee the victory. Contreras is now slashing an outstanding .361/.440/.597 over the first 72 at-bats in 2024. What a pickup he’s been for the Brewers over his first two seasons in Milwaukee.

  • Helsley allows run in 10th to pick up loss
    Ryan Helsley allowed an unearned run in the 10th inning to pick up a loss to the Brewers on Friday.

    Advice: The run was unearned because it was the extra-inning runner that ended up scoring. Helsley gave up an RBI single to William Contreras that gave Milwaukee a 2-1 lead, and Helsley his second loss of the season. Despite tonight’s disappointing result, the 29-year-old has been a strong fantasy option with seven saves already through the first 19 games. Rotoworld 42 minutes ago
     
  • Hoby Milner works scoreless 10th to pick up save
    Hoby Milner fired a scoreless 10th against the Cardinals on Friday to pick up a save.

    Advice: Milner was able to pick up the save in the 10th after Trevor Megill and Joel Payamps both were unable to get the job done. The southpaw has his first save of the year, but it’s worth noting that Abner Uribe was unavailable for this contest, so it’s unlikely he picks up many more. Milner can safely be left on the waiver wire. Rotoworld 42 minutes ago
