Eric Lauer Stats

Milwaukee Brewers starting Pitcher Eric Lauer has allowed five earned runs over three innings through two appearances this spring. Lauer and the Brewers are hoping he will bounce back from a rough 2020 season in which he allowed 16 earned runs over 11 innings, but he has not shown any signs of improvement thus far in the spring. He will have a few more opportunities to right the ship, but the Brewers can still option him, so he is going to have to show some results to avoid opening the regular season in the minors. The team has given him every chance to land a rotation spot, but his pitching has not been effective. His 8.3K/9 is playable, but these rations aren't too appealing to fantasy players.

Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitcher Freddy Peralta was placed on the paternity list prior to Thursdays contest versus the Cardinals, which effectively removes any remaining fantasy intrigue that he had in 2020. With the placement requiring at least three days away from the club, left-hander Eric Lauer was recalled to rejoin the roster. Peralta excelled out of relief this season, amassing 44 strikeouts in 27 IP, not having allowed an earned run in September. Conversely, Lauer has been shelled to the tune of 13 ER in 9 frames, with the Brewers likely to utilize him as a long reliever over the coming five contests.

Milwaukee Brewers left-handed pitcher Eric Lauer has been removed both from the clubs starting rotation and its 28-man roster as of Thursday, when he was optioned to the teams alternate training site. Righty Drew Rasmussen and lefty Angel Perdomo were brought up to Milwaukee with Justin Grimm hitting the IL. How the Brewers fill Lauers spot with the starting staff going remains to be seen, but he can safely be dropped to the waiver wire in all formats for the time being after his struggles to begin 2020.
