Adrian Houser - Page 10 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Getting another rehab start Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Monday that Houser (groin) will make one more rehab start at Triple-A Nashville prior to being activated from the 15-day injured list, Adam McCa...

Impact Though Houser stretched out to 69 pitches and was sharp over his 4.2-inning appearance with Nashville on Sunday, the Brewers will have him build up a little more in the minors. Stashing Houser in the minors for at least another week will also give Milwaukee more time to decide whether to bring him back as their new fifth starter or to stick with Colin Rea in that role. Rea has been solid through his first two starts (4.22 ERA, 0.94 WHIP in 10.2 innings) and will take the hill again Monday versus the Tigers, but he doesn't have much of a recent big-league track record to fall back on compared to Houser.

Impresses in latest rehab start Houser (groin) worked 4.2 scoreless innings in his rehab start Sunday for Triple-A Nashville, striking out two while allowing six hits and no walks.

Impact The right-hander built up to 69 pitches (46 strikes) in the third outing of his rehab assignment and was in control throughout the day, as none of the six hits he allowed went for extra bases. Before landing on the injured list prior to Opening Day with a right groin issue, Houser appeared to be ticketed for a bullpen role, but the Brewers now appear to be prepping him for a potential rotation spot with long-term injuries to Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) and Aaron Ashby (shoulder) having already tested the team's depth. For the time being, Colin Rea is locked in as the Brewers' No. 5 starter, but a poor outing Monday versus a weak Detroit offense could result in a demotion back to Triple-A. Houser will likely be the next man up if the Brewers decide to move Rea out of the rotation or if another starter succumbs to an injury.

Goes three innings in rehab start Houser (groin) allowed two runs over three innings of work with a walk and five strikeouts in a rehab appearance for Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Impact Houser threw 59 pitches with 37 of them landing for strikes. It's the second rehab appearance for the right-hander as he works his way back from groin tightness that has sidelined him for the beginning of the 2023 campaign. Assuming a good report after the outing, there's a good chance Houser joins the Brewers as a multi-inning relief option by the end of the week.

APRIL 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Making first rehab start Friday Houser (groin) will begin his rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Nashville, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Houser hasn't pitched in a game since exiting a spring training appearance with groin tightness March 25. If all goes well, Houser could return to the Brewers' bullpen within a week or so as a multi-inning reliever.

APRIL 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting rehab assignment Sunday Houser (groin) threw a bullpen session Saturday and will head to Triple-A Nashville to being a rehab assignment, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact As expected, Houser will work as a multi-inning reliever on the rehab assignment, which is the role he'll fill when he's with the Brewers. The right-hander is expected to need a few weeks of appearances before he's back with the Milwaukee pitching staff.

Goes on IL Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Wednesday that Houser will open the season on the 10-day injured list and is expected to miss about three weeks, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports...

Impact Houser suffered the groin injury in Saturday's outing versus Oakland. The right-hander, who regressed with a 4.73 ERA as a starter last season, could see time as both a starter and reliever once off the injured list.

MARCH 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Getting evaluated Sunday Houser will be examined Sunday after leaving Saturday's outing against the Athletics with groin tightness, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Houser dealt with groin problems earlier in the spring and also at the end of the 2022 season, so the Brewers will take extra caution to make sure there isn't anything more significant to the issue he experience Saturday. A trip to the injured list to begin the 2023 season remains a possibility at this stage.

Brewers pitcher Adrian Houser exits spring training game with injury The Brewers will evaluate Houser on Sunday to see if an injured list stint is needed.

MARCH 25, 2023 • JSONLINE.COM

Exits with groin tightness Houser left Saturday's game against the Athletics with groin tightness, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Houser has dealt with tightness in his groin both early in the spring and also at the end of the 2022 campaign. He'll be reevaluated on Sunday to help determine his status going forward. If healthy, Houser is expected to pitch in the bullpen to begin the season.

MARCH 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Exits with trainer Houser exited his outing Saturday against the Athletics with a trainer, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact The nature and severity of Houser's injury are not yet clear. He was expected to open the year in the bullpen but looked like one of the top options for a spot start in the absence of Aaron Ashby (shoulder). If Houser misses time as well, Bryse Wilson could fill that role instead.

MARCH 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to start season in bullpen Houser will pitch out of the bullpen for the Brewers to begin 2023, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.

Impact Milwaukee's rotation is full at the moment with Corbin Burnes, Brandon Woodruff, Freddy Peralta, Eric Lauer and Wade Miley all cemented as starters to begin the year. That means Houser will shift to a bullpen role with the ability to start if one or more of those players was to miss time. The 30-year-old was shaky over his 21 starts (22 total appearances) in 2022 with a 4.73 ERA, 69:47 K:BB and 1.46 WHIP so it's not a surprise that the Brewers are opting to go with some more consistent options in the starting group. Houser can safely be ignored in fantasy formats as a multi-inning reliever who isn't likely to rack up the strikeouts or pick up saves.

MARCH 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Making spring debut Houser (groin) is scheduled to start Monday's Cactus League game against the Royals.

Impact Houser likely won't be asked to work more than two innings while he makes his first appearance since exiting a Sept. 27 start against the Cardinals last season due to a right groin strain. The Brewers provided no indication that Houser required offseason surgery to address the injury, so he was presumably able to go through a normal throwing progression over the winter to put him a good spot heading into spring training. Unless the Brewers elect to expand their Opening Day rotation to six men, Houser may have to settle for a long-relief role to begin the season if all of Corbin Burnes, Brandon Woodruff, Freddy Peralta, Eric Lauer and Wade Miley are available.

FEBRUARY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Re-signs with Milwaukee Houser (groin) avoided arbitration by signing a one-year, $3.6 million deal with the Brewers on Friday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports

Impact Houser finished 2022 with a 4.73 ERA and 1.46 WHIP through 102.2 innings -- a major step down from his marks from the season before (3.22 ERA, 1.28 WHIP). With the Brewers rotation already loaded with names like Corbin Burnes, Brandon Woodruff, Freddy Peralta and Eric Lauer, Houser will likely find himself in a battle with emerging southpaw Aaron Ashby for the Crew's fifth rotation spot.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2022 • JSONLINE.COM

Goes on IL The Brewers placed Houser (groin) on the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Impact As expected, the right groin strain that Houser suffered in his start Tuesday will result in him missing the rest of the regular season. Unless the Brewers are able to poach a wild-card spot from either the Phillies or Padres and then advance to the divisional round, Houser is unlikely to pitch again in 2022. He's made 21 starts for Milwaukee, pitching to a 6-10 record, 4.73 ERA and 1.46 WHIP over 102.2 innings.

Impact Houser departed with the injury after 3.1 innings Tuesday, and his record dropped to 6-10 after he gave up three runs on two hits with three strikeouts and four walks. The right-hander rejoined the rotation in late August after he missed nearly two months with an elbow injury, and he's now poised to finish the season on the shelf with another injury. It's unclear if Houser would be available during the playoffs should the Brewers secure a spot.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Departs with injury Houser was removed from Tuesday's start against the Cardinals with an apparent groin injury, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact The right-hander appeared to suffer the injury during the fourth inning as he landed awkwardly while delivering a pitch. Houser exited in line for the loss and allowed three runs on two hits with three strikeouts and four walks over 3.1 frames. He limped off the field under his own power, and it's unclear how the injury will affect his next turn through the rotation.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Effective in short start Houser allowed three hits with no walks or strikeouts across 4.2 scoreless innings Wednesday against the Mets. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Houser generated only two swinging strikes across 74 total pitches, but he managed to turn in an effective outing. Perhaps most encouragingly, he didn't surrender a free pass, as he had walked multiple batters in four of five outings since returning from the injured list -- good for a 5.9 BB/9. For the season, Houser has a 4.62 ERA with only a 66:43 K:BB across 99.1 innings.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Pulled after three innings Houser gave up five runs (four earned) on seven hits and four walks while striking out one over three innings in a 7-6 victory over the Yankees on Friday. He did not factor into th...

Impact Houser looked overwhelmed in his 19th start of the year. He repeatedly nibbled around the outside of the zone and opted to put men on base rather than attacking hitters. The four walks that he issued give him 43 free passes in 94.2 innings pitched this season with only 66 strikeouts. The K/BB of 1.5 he has this season is the lowest rate of his four-year career as a starter. Houser is tentatively expected to face the Mets in another tough matchup next week.

Three reasons the Milwaukee Brewers won't win the NL Central

Could come off IL on Wednesday Houser (elbow) joined the Brewers' taxi squad in Los Angeles on Monday and could be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Wednesday's series finale against the Dodgers, A...

Impact Houser has been on the shelf since July 2 with a right flexor strain, but he looks to be healthy again after making three rehab starts at Triple-A Nashville earlier this month. The 29-year-old had been scheduled to make another start for Nashville this past Sunday, but he was scratched in a decision that was apparently not injury-related. The Brewers will have an opening in the rotation for Houser after Aaron Ashby (shoulder) was placed on the IL on Monday, but expectations should be tempered for the right-hander if he does in fact get the starting nod Wednesday. Prior to landing on the IL, Houser submitted a 4.72 ERA and 7.7 K-BB% across 15 starts, and his results during the rehab assignment weren't overly impressive (3.24 ERA, 1.56 WHIP, 10:7 K:BB in 8.1 innings).

AUGUST 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Making third rehab start Tuesday Houser (elbow) is scheduled to make his third rehab start Tuesday with Triple-A Nashville, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

Impact Houser will be looking to build on a positive showing his last time out for Nashville on Thursday, when he struck out four over three no-hit innings. He built up to 48 pitches in that start, and he may need to get to the 60-to-75 range Tuesday to have a shot at coming off the 15-day injured list and making his next appearance in the big leagues.

AUGUST 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Next rehab outing Thursday Houser (elbow) will make his next rehab start Thursday with Triple-A Nashville, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact The 29-year-old covered two scoreless frames during his first rehab start Saturday, and he'll continue ramping up his workload Thursday. Fellow starter Freddy Peralta recently returned from the injured list after only two outings in the minors, but it appears Houser will require a longer rehab stint before rejoining Milwaukee's rotation.

AUGUST 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for rehab assignment Houser (elbow) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Nashville this weekend, with his first start coming Saturday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Per McCalvy, Houser is scheduled to pitch just two innings Saturday, so he'll likely require at least one or two more additional rehab outings to get stretched back out to a normal starter's workload. With Freddy Peralta (lat) making his return from the 60-day injured list Wednesday, Milwaukee will have its Opening Day rotation back to full strength whenever Houser is deemed ready to go. Though Aaron Ashby (4.13 ERA, 1.45 WHIP in 80.2 innings) has performed marginally better than Houser (4.72 ERA, 1.48 WHIP in 76.1 innings) this season, the Brewers' desire to manage Ashby's workload should help Houser's case for reclaiming the No. 5 starter's role.
