Quinn Priester to Make his Next Rehab Start on Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Quinn Priester (shoulder) will make his next minor-league rehab start on Wednesday with Triple-A Nashville and is scheduled for five ups or 80 to 85 pitches, according to Brewer Fanatic's Jack Stern. Priester recently restarted a rehab assignment with Nashville last week and didn't look great, allowing five earned runs on five hits while walking three in three innings. It was an improvement over the 26-year-old's previous start with High-A Wisconsin, though, when he surrendered seven earned runs in just 1 1/3 innings of work. It's good news that Priester will ramp up his workload this week, but the former first-rounder's results in the minors as he works his way back from thoracic outlet syndrome symptoms haven't been very encouraging. In five rehab starts, he has an eye-popping 20.25 ERA and 3.32 WHIP with nine strikeouts and 14 walks in 9 1/3 frames. Until Priester can get his control in check, he won't be an attractive stash candidate for fantasy managers in mixed leagues. He's currently rostered in only 16% of Yahoo leagues.
