Brewers Option Tobias Myers
Briefly

The Brewers have optioned right-hander Tobias Myers to Triple-A, recalling pitcher Elvis Peguero as his replacement. This move is surprising given Myers's critical role in the rotation during the past season and his breakout performance with a 3.00 ERA. However, his current stats show a troubling decline with a dropping strikeout rate of 14.7% and a rising walk rate of 13.3%. The team’s injury situation forced them to reconsider Myers's position as six starters remain on the injured list, leading to this decision amid concerns over his ability to consistently generate quality performances.
Myers has watched his strikeout rate dip to just 14.7% while his walk rate has crept up to 13.3%, raising concerns about his production.
He’s followed that up with a 3.86 ERA across 16 1/3 innings across four starts and one relief appearance.
