Demoted to Triple-A The Brewers optioned Sproat to Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Impact Sproat made the Brewers' Opening Day rotation and has shown flashes this season, but the consistency hasn't been there, with the righty turning in a 5.27 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 100:48 K:BB over 95.2 innings. His spot in the Milwaukee rotation will be absorbed by Dustin May, who was acquired at Monday's trade deadline.

Quick hook in seventh loss Sproat (3-7) took the loss Monday against the Pirates, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks in three-plus innings. He struck out four.

Impact Manager Pat Murphy abruptly pulled the plug on Sproat on Monday, pulling the hurler in the middle of an at-bat following a pair of wild pitches. Sproat has really struggled provide the Brewers with length during his debut season with the club, working fewer than five innings in 13 of his 21 outings. Sproat, who has a 5.27 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 100:48 K:BB over 95.2 innings, is tentatively slated to face the Twins this weekend, but his next steps aren't entirely determined since Milwaukee is adding Kyle Harrison (forearm) and trade acquisition Dustin May to its rotation this week, per Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Suffers sixth loss Sproat (3-6) took the loss Monday, allowing three runs on six hits and three walks over six innings against the Giants. He struck out five.

Impact The right-hander allowed a fair number of Giants hitters to reach and served up a two-run homer to Grant McCray in the fourth inning, but Sproat still managed to record a quality start despite taking the loss. The 25-year-old has delivered improved results of late, posting a 3.10 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 33:14 K:BB across 29 innings in his past six outings. He'll take a 5.05 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 96:49 K:BB across 92.2 innings (20 appearances) into his next start, tentatively scheduled for Sunday against the Angels.

Falls despite limiting damage Sproat (3-5) took the loss Tuesday against the Mets, allowing two runs on four hits and four walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings.

Impact Sproat surrendered a solo homer to Jared Young in the third inning to open the scoring. He struggled to settle in, failing to record any 1-2-3 innings and allowing a runner to reach scoring position in every frame. He exited in the fifth after being damaged only by the early homer, but Chad Patrick allowed an inherited runner to score, leaving Sproat charged. The right-hander has now gone five straight starts without allowing more than two earned runs, though he has completed at least five innings in only two of those outings. He'll carry a 5.09 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 91:43 K:BB into his next scheduled start on the road against San Francisco.

Early exit in Saturday's matinee Sproat didn't factor into the decision in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Pirates, giving up three runs (two earned) on two hits and two walks over three inni...

Impact The 25-year-old right-hander also plunked three batters and uncorked a wild pitch, getting the hook after 83 pitches (51 strikes) and forcing the Brewers to go to their bullpen much earlier than they wanted in the twin bill. Sproat has failed to get an out in the fifth inning in three of his last five starts, but he's still managed to put together a 3.68 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 30:9 K:BB over 22 innings during that stretch. His spot in the rotation is precarious, but Sproat could stick around at least until reinforcements potentially arrive at the trade deadline.

Brewers and Pirates rained out, setting up Saturday doubleheader

The scheduled game between the Milwaukee Brewers and Pittsburgh Pirates was postponed because of rain Friday night and rescheduled for Saturday as part of a day-night doubleheader

JULY 11 • Associated Press

Friday's start rained out Sproat and the Brewers won't face the Pirates on Friday, as the game was postponed due to rain.

Impact The two sides will make up Friday's contest during a doubleheader Saturday, and Sproat will likely get the nod to start one of the two games. The 25-year-old righty has begun to turn things around as of late, giving up two runs or fewer in four of his last five starts while posting a 2.88 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 30:8 K:BB across 25 innings in that span.

Inefficient in no-decision Sproat allowed a run on five hits and three walks while striking out four over four innings in a no-decision versus the Diamondbacks on Sunday.

Impact Sproat was inefficient Sunday, throwing 55 of 92 pitches for strikes in this short start. Since the start of June, he has allowed just 11 runs over 30 innings across six starts. He's at a 5.13 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 84:37 K:BB across 79 innings through 17 games (15 starts) this season, but he's trending in the right direction. Sproat should remain in the rotation even with Logan Henderson (back) slated to return this season, as Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) was shelved following his injury Saturday. Sproat is projected to make his next start at Pittsburgh.
