Robert Gasser Fantasy Stats

According to Will Sammon and Chad Jennings of The Athletic, Milwaukee Brewers left-handed pitcher Robert Gasser could be a name to watch to earn a role in the starting rotation. On Wednesday evening, the Brewers traded their top pitcher, Freddy Peralta, to the New York Mets in exchange for two top prospects, Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams. While veteran Brandon Woodruff is expected to lead the rotation with emerging right-hander Jacob Misiorowski slotting behind him, the back of the rotation is open. Quinn Priester and Chad Patrick are projected to operate as the No. 3 and No. 4, but Gasser could be a name to watch for one of the final positions. The young southpaw has made seven MLB starts over his career and logged 33 2/3 innings to the tune of a 2.67 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP. Through 205 2/3 innings at Triple-A, Gasser has struck out 250 hitters with a 3.72 ERA. While Logan Henderson would likely have the edge for the final position, Gasser could make a strong claim to operate as the No. 6 starter if the team uses a six-man rotation. He is a name to monitor in spring training and could be worth a late-round selection in deeper formats.

Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Robert Gasser will start for the Brewers on Sunday on the road against the Cardinals. The 26-year-old is had been working his way back from Tommy John surgery and was activated from the 60-day injured list on August 30. Since then, he's mostly been working out of the bullpen at Triple-A, so he likely won't go too many innings on Sunday. The southpaw last pitched in the majors in mid-2024, posting a 2.57 ERA and 1.04 WHIP, but struck out only 16 batters in 28 innings pitched. The Brewers are favored in this one, but fantasy managers may want to seek other options and there are surely better DFS options.

Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Robert Gasser will transition from starter to reliever at Triple-A Nashville, with the team working to get him multi-inning relief appearances in the event that is what the Brewers could need down the stretch as they make a push for a division crown. Gasser recently completed his recovery from Tommy John surgery, making five starts at Triple-A Nashville, where he recorded a 3.37 ERA, 1.39 WHIP, and a 16.3 percent K-BB%. The southpaw debuted with the Brewers in 2024, making five starts and posting a 2.57 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and walking just one batter while striking out 16 in 28 innings of work. Since the 26-year-old was optioned to Nashville when he came off the injured list, he'll have to wait 15 days before being recalled, unless he's replacing an injured player. Long-term, Gasser still projects as a starter rather than a reliever and could still develop into a solid major league pitcher.

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Robert Gasser (elbow) has been reinstated from the 60-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Nashville, per an announcement from the team. Gasser underwent Tommy John surgery in June 2024 and has been slowly making his way back. The 26-year-old has already pitched 13 2/3 innings at Triple-A across four rehab appearances this season and has worked to a 2.29 ERA and 1.17 WHIP with 12 strikeouts. Gasser will now presumably be stretched out more fully as the team builds him back up to a full starter's workload. Milwaukee has a deep starting rotation at the big-league level, so Gasser may not make a fantasy impact until 2026.

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Robert Gasser (elbow) held his own in a rehab start with Triple-A Nashville on Friday. Gasser, who's on his way back from June 2024 Tommy John surgery, tossed three scoreless innings with four strikeouts. He allowed three hits, walked one, and threw 27 of 42 pitches for strikes. The Brewers are building the 26-year-old back up as a starter post-surgery, so he figures to need at least a couple more rehab outings at the Triple-A level before a potential return to the majors. Gasser thrived out of the rotation during his short debut in 2024, when he made five starts and posted a 2.57 ERA with a 1.04 WHIP, 16 strikeouts, and a mere one walk in 28 innings. Even in the wake of recent injuries to Jacob Misiorowski (leg) and Logan Henderson (elbow), the Brewers are deep in the rotation. As a result, Gasser will likely work out of the bullpen if he comes back this season.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Robert Gasser (elbow) is being built up as a starter as he makes his way back from Tommy John surgery, according to Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Hogg relays that Gasser could be moved to a relief role late in the season if a need opens up with the team. Gasser last pitched in the big leagues in June 2024. In his three rehab appearances so far, he's thrown four innings, allowing two earned runs and one walk while striking out four. The Brewers have excellent pitching depth between both their major league and Triple-A rosters. Even when Gasser is healthy, he could be behind current minor leaguers Logan Henderson, Chad Patrick, and Tobias Meyers as candidates to join the big league rotation.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Robert Gasser (elbow) is continuing his rehab from Tommy John surgery and is scheduled to make a one-inning start for the High-A Wisconsin Timber Rattlers on Thursday. The 26-year-old lefty looked strong in five starts for the Brew Crew last season before undergoing the season-ending procedure in late June. This will be his first rehab outing as he tries to climb back to the majors in time to help the team this season. Depending on how his recovery goes, he could work his way into a limited role, but due to the severity of the injury and how long he's been sidelined, he will likely be brought along slowly and managed carefully. In most leagues, he's just someone to monitor at this point, although he may be worth picking up later in the season.

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Robert Gasser (elbow) will start a rehab assignment in the Arizona Complex League next week. It's a significant step for Gasser, who's on the comeback trail from June 2024 Tommy John surgery. He impressed in his first five major league starts before going under the knife, as he registered a 2.57 ERA with a 1.04 WHIP across 28 innings. Gasser fanned just 16 hitters during that span, but he helped make up for it by issuing only one walk. Barring any setbacks, the Brewers expect the 26-year-old to return sometime in August.

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Robert Gasser (elbow) has been throwing live batting practice and could be in line for a rehab assignment "soon," according to Brewers manager Pat Murphy. Gasser underwent Tommy John surgery in June of 2024, so he'll likely need many rehab appearances to ramp up for big-league action. Gasser made his major league debut with Milwaukee in 2024 and had pitched to a 2.57 ERA and 1.04 WHIP across 28 innings (five starts) before getting injured. Gasser's small-sample strikeout rate of 14% was underwhelming, but he showed significantly better strikeout stuff (28% K rate) across 135 1/3 innings of work at Triple-A in 2023. Milwaukee's #11 ranked prospect per MLB.com, Gasser, could be a valuable late-season addition for fantasy managers if all goes well in his rehab.

Milwaukee Brewers left-handed pitching prospect Robert Gasser (elbow) is scheduled to face hitters in a live batting practice session in Arizona this week. Gasser, the team's No. 11 prospect per MLB Pipeline, will be facing hitters for the first time this week since having Tommy John surgery last June. The 26-year-old southpaw will be brought along slowly before eventually going on what will be a lengthy minor-league rehab assignment. Even if Gasser doesn't have any setbacks along the way, he probably won't be able to return to the big-league starting rotation until later in the season. He went 2-0 with a 2.57 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 16:1 K:BB in his first five major-league starts last year before getting hurt. For fantasy purposes, he won't really be a valuable contributor until next season, when he should have a great shot to win a rotation spot out of spring training as long as he's healthy.
