Brewers Depth Chart
Colin Rea News
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Colin Rea was deployed in a long-relief role on Monday and could be shifting to a permanent role in the bullpen, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. In addition, McCalvy noted that Rea does not appear among the probable starting pitchers in their weekend series against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Since the start of August, Rea has held a 6.05 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and a 4:33 BB:K ratio across 38 2/3 innings of work as a starter. Under the hood, the 34-year-old holds a 9.2% barrel rate and a 41.8% hard-hit rate, which place him in the bottom 21st and 23rd percentile among qualified pitchers, respectively. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to the Milwaukee rotation this weekend, as it could suggest who will be deployed as a starter in October.

Colin Rea Spins Seven-Inning Gem
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Colin Rea improved to 11-4 on the season by shutting out the Cleveland Guardians over seven innings, allowing just two hits with five strikeouts. Rea has a 3.52 ERA and 1.15 WHIP this season over 135 1/3 innings pitched with 108 strikeouts. He doesn't boast a high strikeout rate, but outings like these show how effective he can be and has been for the most part this season. The right-hander is turning in a breakout season for the Brew Crew.

Colin Rea Fans Nine In Seven-Inning Gem Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Colin Rea continued his strong season in Tuesday's 10-0 rout of the Braves. Rea pitched seven innings, allowing five hits and a walk with nine strikeouts. The 34-year-old is having a career season, going 10-3 with a 3.38 ERA, a 7.28 K/9 rate, and a 2.65 BB/9 rate in 22 appearances (19 starts) and 122 1/3 IP. He has allowed a lot of hard contact and has significantly outperformed his underlying metrics, but fantasy managers can't argue with his peripherals this season. He will face a decent matchup in his next start against the Reds and is worth starting in at least deeper leagues.

Colin Rea Fans Eight In Tuesday's No-Decision
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Colin Rea turned in a great start in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Cubs. Rea pitched five innings, allowing four hits and two walks with eight strikeouts. The 34-year-old has pitched well both in a traditional starter's role and as a bulk reliever, going 9-3 with a 3.60 ERA, a 6.87 K/9 rate, and a 2.70 BB/9 rate in 20 appearances (17 starts) and 110 IP. While his results have been respectable, Rea has allowed a lot of hard contact, so fantasy managers should be wary of potential regression in the second half. Until then, he and fantasy managers will look to take advantage of a middling Braves matchup in his next scheduled start.

Rob Zastryzny Starting On Sunday, Colin Rea To Follow As Bulk Reliever
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Rob Zastryzny will serve as the opener for Sunday's series finale against the visiting Washington Nationals, with right-hander Colin Rea set to serve as the bulk reliever. It will be Zastryzny's second opening assignment for the Brew Crew this year. In his first "start" for Milwaukee on July 1 against the Colorado Rockies, the 32-year-old southpaw produced a scoreless inning. Because he'll only go an inning or two at the most, Zastryzny can be ignored in fantasy. Rea is being protected as a bulk reliever on Sunday after he gave up a season-high seven earned runs against the Pittsburgh Pirates in his last outing on Tuesday. The 34-year-old veteran went seven shutout innings on July 3 with four strikeouts, so he'll be hoping for a bounce-back outing heading into next week's All-Star break.

Colin Rea Twirls Gem Against Blue Jays
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Colin Rea allowed one run on three hits across seven strong innings during Monday's 3-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays. He struck out four batters without issuing a walk. It was one of the best starts of the season for the 33-year-old and improved his record to 5-2. Despite the success, Rea looks like a prime regression candidate. His 3.31 ERA is a long way off from his 5.56 xERA and he only has a 15.8 K% across 70 2/3 innings. He is best suited to be a streaming option in most leagues as he heads into a matchup with the Cincinnati Reds on the weekend.

Colin Rea To Work Behind Opener On Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Colin Rea will work behind an opener on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Phillies on the road. It's unclear who the Brewers will use as the opener after going with Jared Koenig on Monday. Rea, 33, worked as the team's bulk reliever behind Koenig on May 25 against the Boston Red Sox and allowed two earned runs with three walks and two strikeouts in 5 2/3 frames in a win. In his last outing on May 30 against the Chicago Cubs, Rea had a no-decision while working 5 1/3 frames and allowing one earned run on one walk and five K's. Rea has had a solid campaign thus far for the Brew Crew, going 4-2 with a 3.77 ERA and 1.34 WHIP with 42 strikeouts in 59 2/3 innings over 11 outings (10 starts), but the matchup on Tuesday against the Phils on the road is one to fade him in.

Colin Rea Earns No-Decision On Thursday
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Colin Rea earned a no-decision in Thursday's outing versus the division rival Chicago Cubs. Rea pitched well for the most part and it was a solo home run by Cody Bellinger in the top of the first inning that would be the lone damage against the veteran. Rea's final line on the evening would be five hits, one run, one walk and five strikeouts over 5 1/3 innings. Rea has made two good starts in a row, but his season has been inconsistent overall. Rea is best suited as a streamer in favorable matchups and will carry a 3.77 ERA into next weeks starts versus a tough Philadelphia Phillies offense.

Colin Rea To Start Season In Brewers Rotation
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that starting pitcher Colin Rea will start the season in the team's rotation. The 33-year-old made 26 appearances (22 starts) for the Brewers in 2023, going 6-6 with a 4.55 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, and 21.3% strikeout rate. Rea has looked sharp in his eight innings of work this spring and the Brewers currently do not have much pitching depth. While he may not hold much fantasy value in roto leagues, he could be a deep points-league consideration in favorable matchups.

Brewers Re-Sign Colin Rea To One-Year Contract
The Milwaukee Brewers re-signed right-hander Colin Rea to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday that includes a team option for the 2025 season. In by far his most extensive work in his fifth year in the big leagues, Rea went 6-6 in his first full season in Milwaukee and also had a 4.55 ERA (4.90 FIP), 1.19 WHIP, 38 walks and 110 strikeouts in 124 2/3 innings of work over 26 appearances (22 starts). Given the injury to right-handed starter Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) that is likely to sideline him for all of 2024, Rea will have a legitimate chance to open the regular season next year as a full member of the Brew Crew's starting rotation. The 33-year-old will be a depth option for fantasy managers in deeper formats if that ends up being the case.
