Robert Gasser Starting Game 4 of NLDS Against Padres
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Robert Gasser will start for the Brewers in Game 4 of the National League Division Series on Wednesday night at Petco Park against the San Diego Padres, according to Brewers reporter Sophia Minnaert. It will be Gasser's first career postseason start after throwing 2 2/3 innings of relief in the playoffs for the Brew Crew last year. The 27-year-old southpaw went 5-5 on the season with a 3.87 ERA (4.24 FIP) and 1.19 WHIP with a career-high 103 strikeouts and 35 walks in 109 1/3 innings across 21 appearances (20 starts). The problem for Gasser is that he has not made a start in almost two weeks, so he could be a bit rusty. Manager Pat Murphy will surely have a short hook on the young left-hander as the Brewers look to close the best-of-five series out in San Diego. Gasser was outstanding down the stretch in 2026, allowing two earned runs or fewer in each of his last six starts, walking 12 and striking out 31 in 32 1/3 innings during that span. He did not face the Padres at all during the regular season, which could give him a bit of an advantage.

Logan Henderson Goes Five Innings in Playoff Debut on Sunday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Logan Henderson did not have the sharpest outing in his postseason debut in Game 2 of the National League Division Series, but he managed to keep his team in the game. Henderson allowed two hits, three walks, and two runs (one earned) while striking out four across five innings of work in Milwaukee's 4-3 win over the San Diego Padres. Henderson emerged as a front-line starter during the regular season, recording an 11-3 record with a 2.47 ERA, 0.84 WHIP, and 110 strikeouts across 98 1/3 innings (18 starts). The 24-year-old averaged only 93.0 miles per hour on his fastball, but he logged an excellent 29.6% strikeout rate while walking just 5.1% of the batters he faced. If Milwaukee is going to make a deep postseason run, it will need Henderson to carry over his strong production from the regular season to the playoffs.

Jacob Misiorowski the Probable Game 1 Starter
Milwaukee Brewers flamethrowing right-hander Jacob Misiorowski is the team's probable starter for Game 1 of the National League Division Series, with right-hander Logan Henderson lined up for Game 2 of the NLDS, manager Pat Murphy told Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. It comes as no surprise that the Miz would get the ball for the first game of the series against the winner of the three-game Wild-Card Series this week against the Chicago Cubs and San Diego Padres. The 24-year-old Misiorowski finished his first full year in the majors in 2026 with a league-best 1.80 ERA (2.17 FIP) and 252 strikeouts across his 174 2/3 innings pitched over 30 starts for the Brew Crew. He also led the league with a 0.80 WHIP and 13.0 strikeouts per nine innings. Milwaukee kept Misiorowski's innings limited in the second half, but he was still very tough to hit, posting a 2.12 ERA with 17 walks and 85 strikeouts in 63 2/3 innings across his 12 starts. He went 6-1 after the All-Star break. Misiorowski had a 2.82 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in four games versus the division-rival Cubs this year, and he tossed seven shutout innings with no walks and 10 strikeouts in his lone start against the Padres.

Brandon Woodruff Throwing Out to 105 Feet
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) is throwing out to 105 feet, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The plan is to "re-evaluate for mound readiness at the end of September." Woodruff's return to the Brewers this year is still to be determined. Woodruff avoided season-ending shoulder surgery for a capsule injury in his right arm in July, and he has been working his way back ever since. The 33-year-old veteran will not rejoin the Brew Crew for the end of the regular season in September, but there is still a chance that he could be an option for them (most likely as a reliever) in the postseason in October. The two-time All-Star has had trouble staying healthy since 2023, as he made just 11 starts that year before missing all of the 2024 campaign. Woodruff has made 21 starts in the last two seasons combined, including just nine in 2026, going 2-2 with a 2.98 ERA, 0.84 WHIP, and 47:10 K:BB in 45 1/3 innings. The Brewers probably are not holding their breath in hopes that Woodruff will make a significant impact for them in the playoffs.

Jacob Misiorowski Remains an Elite Starting Pitcher Option
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski is the runaway favorite to win the National League Cy Young Award in 2026, as he's recorded a 14-5 record with a 1.95 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, and 236 strikeouts across 161 1/3 innings (27 starts). The 24-year-old had a rare off-night at Wrigley Field on September 2, allowing five earned runs across four innings against the Chicago Cubs. However, Misiorowski bounced back against the Cubs in his most recent outing on Tuesday, allowing just one earned run while striking out nine across 6 1/3 innings. The young right-hander is averaging 100.5 miles per hour on his fastball and has posted a ridiculous 38.3% strikeout rate for the year. Misiorowski has also limited free passes (6.7% walk rate) and power, allowing opposing hitters to log just a 3.3% barrel rate. Heading into the final few weeks of the regular season, Misiorowski remains an elite starting pitching option for fantasy managers.

Kyle Harrison Will Start on Saturday But Could be Piggybacked
The Milwaukee Brewers plan to have left-hander Kyle Harrison make his next scheduled start this Saturday against the division-rival Cincinnati Reds, but they will be ready with a long reliever behind him, "perhaps with a piggyback in mind," according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The Brewers are hoping that by shortening his starts or mixing him in via relief outings, they can help Harrison get out of his current funk. The 25-year-old southpaw has recorded 15 outs or fewer in each of his last nine starts, a stretch that started on July 27 that includes a multi-week stay on the 15-day injured list due to tightness in his left forearm. Harrison only made it 3 2/3 innings in each of his last two starts against the Reds and division-rival Chicago Cubs, allowing a combined 15 runs (13 earned) on 19 hits (six homers) while walking six and striking out seven in 7 1/3 frames. He will have a chance to redeem himself this weekend against Cincy, but most fantasy managers will not want to take a chance and find out if he can turn it around against the Reds. Harrison is now 10-4 with a 3.66 ERA (4.03 FIP) and 1.27 WHIP with a career-high 134 strikeouts and 33 walks in 110 2/3 frames and 23 starts in 2026 in his first year with the Brew Crew.

Brandon Woodruff to Resume Throwing Program
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) did not decide to have surgery and could actually return to the mound this season. According to Curt Hogg, Woodruff is scheduled to begin a throwing program on Wednesday. This is huge news after Woodruff said in July that he planned to undergo season-ending capsule repair surgery. Luckily, follow-up imaging revealed better results, and Woodruff's shoulder is actually healing. He'll begin a five-week throwing program next week, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect to get anything out of Woodruff for the rest of the season. Although this is great news for the Brewers, who could potentially have Woodruff available for the postseason.

Shane Drohan Remains an Appealing Waiver Wire Target Despite Recent Struggles
Across 93 innings in 2026, Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Shane Drohan has recorded a 6-4 record with a 3.87 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and 93 strikeouts. The 27-year-old has run into some struggles of late, allowing 13 earned runs across his last 17 innings (three starts). However, Drohan has had an impressive first year in the big leagues overall. He's done a nice job of both limiting walks (7.2% walk rate) and home runs (0.87 HR/9). Drohan's 23.8% strikeout rate is not eye-popping, but it's a solid mark for a left-hander with his profile and versatile pitch mix. He's also gone at least six innings in five out of his last six starts, which gives him an excellent chance to rack up wins while pitching for the Brewers. Even amidst his recent rough patch, Drohan is worth targeting on the waiver wire as a starting pitcher streamer.

Kyle Harrison in Line to Make his Next Start on Tuesday in SD
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Kyle Harrison (calves) is expected to make his next start on the road in San Diego against the Padres at Petco Park on Tuesday, according to Hunter Baumgardt of FOX Sports 920 Milwaukee. Harrison was up in the air to make his next start after being pulled from his last outing early on Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Pirates with bilateral calf cramps. The 24-year-old southpaw was still able to help fantasy managers who started him, as he threw five shutout innings with just one hit allowed, one walk, and 10 strikeouts. It was the third time this year that Harrison had double-digit strikeouts, and it was an encouraging first outing back from the injured list due to a left-forearm injury. Harrison will carry a little more risk going into Tuesday's outing, but the matchup is a good one against the Padres at Petco. In his first meeting with the Friars in Milwaukee on May 14, Harrison tossed five shutout innings with no walks and seven strikeouts for his fourth win of the year. Fantasy managers who have Harrison rostered should keep him locked into their lineups this week.

Kyle Harrison Exits Early on Wednesday Due to Calf Cramps
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Kyle Harrison (calf) exited early from his start on Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Pirates due to cramping in both calves, according to Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Harrison dominated before being pulled from the game, pitching five scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts while allowing just one hit and one walk. The 24-year-old was making his first start since early July, as he missed nearly a month due to elbow and forearm discomfort. Fantasy managers can now breathe a sigh of relief, as it appears Harrison's arm was not the reason why he was forced to leave his first start back. Harrison has been excellent when healthy in 2026, recording an 8-2 record with a 2.84 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and 111 strikeouts across 88 2/3 innings (18 starts). It appears he will avoid additional missed time, but fantasy managers should check back for more updates on his status in the next few days.

Kyle Harrison Likely to Return on Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Kyle Harrison (elbow, forearm) isn't dealing with any elbow/forearm discomfort after bouncing back from his last minor-league rehab start, and it looks likely that he'll come off the 15-day injured list to start on Wednesday against the division-rival Pittsburgh Pirates, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The 24-year-old southpaw struck out five batters and walked three in 5 2/3 shutout innings in his last rehab start on Thursday at High-A. Harrison has had an excellent year in 2026 in his first season with the Brew Crew, going 8-2 with a 3.01 ERA (3.10 FIP) and 1.08 WHIP with 101 strikeouts and only 20 walks in 83 2/3 innings pitched across 17 starts in his fourth year in the big leagues. Fantasy managers who have been stashing him are hoping that he can quickly regain his pre-injury form and close things out strong. Harrison faced the Pirates back on April 26 at home and picked up his second win of the year, throwing six shutout innings with just one walk and a season-high 12 strikeouts. He's rostered in 85% of Yahoo leagues.

Brewers Acquire Dustin May and a Reliever From Cardinals
The Milwaukee Brewers made a move at Monday's Aug. 3 trade deadline to acquire right-hander Dustin May and left-handed reliever JoJo Romero (abdomen) from the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals, a source told The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon. May, 28, was in his first year in St. Louis in 2026 and went 5-7 with a 4.38 ERA (3.14 FIP) and 1.28 WHIP with 106 strikeouts and 35 walks in 109 innings pitched across 21 starts for the Red Birds. The former third-rounder by the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2016 will give the first-place Brewers more rotation depth and also has experience working in a relief role, which would be invaluable for the Brew Crew as they look to get over the hump. May is expected to slot into Milwaukee's starting rotation after allowing just an earned run with three walks and 11 strikeouts in 11 innings in his last two starts against the Cincinnati Reds and Chicago Cubs. The move to Milwaukee should be considered a boost for his rest-of-season fantasy outlook. Romero has been out since mid-July after having an appendectomy, but he should be ready to make his Brewers debut in mid-August after posting a 3.53 ERA with 43 strikeouts and 16 walks in his 43 relief innings for St. Louis. He's currently tied for sixth in baseball with 20 saves, making him attractive in leagues that count that statistic.

Kyle Harrison is Expected to Return Against Pirates
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Kyle Harrison (forearm) is expected to return from the 15-day Injured List during their upcoming series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The series begins on Monday and goes through Thursday, but the Brewers haven't said which day Harrison is going to pitch. His lone rehab start was with High-A Wisconsin on Thursday, so a return on Wednesday seems likely. Harrison was struggling a bit before the injury, but has mostly been solid this season. The southpaw deserves to be rostered in most fantasy formats down the stretch of the season.

Kyle Harrison Throws 5 2/3 Scoreless Innings in Rehab Outing
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Kyle Harrison (forearm) took the mound for a rehab start with High-A Wisconsin on Thursday. The southpaw looked stellar as he threw 5 2/3 scoreless innings while allowing one hit and striking out five batters. Harrison is working his way back from a left forearm issue that has sidelined him since July 11. He looked stellar during his outing, so Harrison might be activated from the Injured List after only one rehab start. Harrison has been excellent this season and deserves to be rostered in most fantasy formats. Fantasy managers should stay tuned to see if Harrison needs another rehab start or makes his next outing with Milwaukee.

Jacob Misiorowski Strikes Out 12 in Five Innings on Sunday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski didn't go long in Sunday's 11-2 blowout victory over the visiting Colorado Rockies, but he was still as dominant as ever. Misiorowski allowed just a solo home run with no walks and 12 strikeouts in five innings for his 11th win of the season. The hard-throwing 24-year-old dealt with right-arm fatigue to close out the first half of the regular season, prompting the Brewers to hold him back entering the second half. As he quickly approaches his career high in innings, Milwaukee figures to continue looking for ways to manage the Miz's innings so that he can be of use and at full strength for the postseason in October. The former second-rounder in 2022 from Crowder College threw 59 of his 83 pitches for strikeouts in what was the ninth time in 2026 in which he's recorded double-digit strikeouts. On the season, he has a dominant 1.58 ERA, 0.75 WHIP, and 185:28 K:BB in 120 innings across 20 starts. Misiorowski is still a must-start every time he takes the hill, but his workload restrictions will inevitably lower his fantasy ceiling going forward.
