"That includes using Jacob Misiorowski out of the bullpen in preparation for his expected postseason role. The 23-year-old will make his first career relief appearance behind lefty Robert Gasser tomorrow (link via Adam McCalvy of MLB.com). Gasser will likely be limited to 3-4 innings as he continues building back from last year's elbow surgery. Misiorowski should work multiple innings out of the 'pen."
"Milwaukee's bullpen should get another big boost this weekend. Closer Trevor Megill is expected back from the 15-day injured list on Sunday, reports Curt Hogg of The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. The Brewers will probably get him into that game regardless of the score to ensure he gets on the mound before the start of the postseason. Megill, who has 30 saves with a 2.54 ERA, has missed the past month with a forearm strain."
The Brewers need one win over the Reds or a Phillies loss to the Twins to secure the National League's top seed. The team is focused on shaping plans for the Division Series. Jacob Misiorowski will be used from the bullpen to prepare for an expected postseason relief role and will make his first relief appearance behind Robert Gasser, who will likely be limited to 3-4 innings while building back from elbow surgery. Misiorowski has been electric but carries a 5.45 second-half ERA and little experience beyond five innings. Trevor Megill is expected back from the injured list on Sunday. Jose Quintana threw three innings in live batting practice and is trending toward a Division Series return.
