Placed on 15-day injured list The Brewers placed Zastryzny on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with an undisclosed injury.

No longer opening Zastryzny will be available out of the bullpen Saturday versus Philadelphia, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact The Brewers initially planned to use Zastryzny as an opener Saturday, but they'll now run with Chad Patrick as their starter. Zastryzny has yet to allow a run in five innings since returning to Milwaukee.

Opening Saturday Zastryzny will open Saturday's game against the Phillies, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Zastryzny struck out two batters in a scoreless inning when the Brewers used him as an opener May 19 against Baltimore, and he'll now aim for similar success against the top of Philadelphia's order. Chad Patrick is expected to follow Zastryzny as a bulk reliever.

Serving as opener Monday Zastryzny will serve as the opening pitcher in Monday's game against the Orioles, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Zastryzny will be limited to 1-to-2 innings of work before handing things off to Quinn Priester, who is slated to be the Brewers' primary pitcher in the series opener. The left-handed Zastryzny was acquired via trade last week and tossed two scoreless frames in his first appearance with Milwaukee.

Brewers reacquire pitcher Rob Zastryzny from Yankees in exchange for cash

The Milwaukee Brewers have acquired left-handed pitcher Rob Zastryzny from the New York Yankees for cash and optioned right-handed pitcher Elvis Peguero to Triple-A Nashville

MAY 16, 2025 • Associated Press

Dealt to Milwaukee The Brewers acquired Zastryzny from the Yankees on Friday in exchange for cash and selected him to the active roster.

Impact Zastryzny has spent all of 2025 in Triple-A, where he owns a 4.50 ERA and 1.33 WHIP across 12 innings. He turned in better results with the Brewers last season, giving up one run in 7.2 MLB innings before having his season cut short in late July due to elbow tendinitis. He'll look to repeat his success as he rejoins the organization, replacing Elvis Peguero in Milwaukee's bullpen.

MAY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to minor-league camp The Yankees reassigned Zastryzny to minor-league camp Saturday.

Impact Zastryzny found success in a small sample of big-league action with the Brewers in 2024 (1.17 ERA, 0.65 WHIP in 7.2 innings), but he'll open the 2025 season in the minors with a new organization after struggling during spring training. Over his seven innings in the Grapefruit League, the veteran lefty surrendered four earned runs on seven hits -- including two home runs -- and two walks.

MARCH 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Gets NRI deal Zastryzny signed a minor-league contract with the Yankees on Monday that includes an invitation to big-league spring training.

Impact After being cast off the Cubs' 40-man roster earlier this month, Zastryzny elected free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment to Chicago's Triple-A affiliate. He quickly found work with the Yankees, who will give the 32-year-old lefty a chance to compete for a spot in the Opening Day bullpen this spring. Zastryzny made nine appearances in the majors with the Brewers in 2024, turning in a 1.17 ERA and 0.65 WHIP across 7.2 innings.

Outrighted to minors The Cubs outrighted Zastryzny to Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday.

Impact Though he's no longer a member of the Cubs' 40-man roster, Zastryzny will stick around in the organization and should still join the big-league group for spring training. The 32-year-old lefty made nine appearances in the majors with the Brewers in 2024, giving up one earned run on four hits and one walk while striking out five in 7.2 innings.

FEBRUARY 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Jettisoned from 40-man The Cubs designated Zastryzny for assignment Tuesday, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Impact The 32-year-old lefty will end up as the odd man out of a 40-man roster spot in order to make room for Ryan Brasier, who was acquired from the Dodgers on Tuesday. Zastryzny appeared in nine games for the Brewers last year, surrendering just one earned run in 7.2 innings before elbow tendinitis cut his season short in late July. He also finished the Triple-A season with a 3.03 ERA across 29.2 frames, so teams looking for bullpen help may be willing to take a flier on him.

Claimed by Cubs The Cubs claimed Zastryzny (elbow) off waivers from the Brewers on Monday, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact It's a return to his original organization for Zastryzny, who was drafted by the Cubs and spent his first three major-league seasons in Chicago. The lefty reliever ended the season on the injured list with elbow tendinitis but looks to be healthy headed into the offseason.

Shifts to 60-day IL Zastryzny (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Thursday.

Impact Zastryzny has been sidelined since July 26 with elbow tendinitis. He appeared to be closing in on a return but had his rehab assignment paused in late August. He'll be sidelined until at least Sept. 26 as a result of this move.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Rehab paused, should throw soon Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Wednesday that Zastryzny (elbow) experienced some "tightness" coming out of his most recent rehab appearance Aug. 13 but is expected to resume throw...

Impact Though he made just two appearances for Triple-A Nashville before being pulled off the rehab assignment, Zastryzny appears to have avoided a major setback and could be cleared for game action soon if he's responds well to his upcoming throwing session. Before landing on the 15-day injured list July 26 with left elbow tendinitis, Zastryzny made nine appearances for Milwaukee and gave up one earned run on four hits and one walk over 7.2 innings.

Impact Zastryzny may require another appearance or two in the minors before the Brewers bring him back from the 15-day injured list. Before being deactivated July 26 due to left elbow tendinitis, Zastryzny made nine appearances for the Brewers and posted a 1.17 ERA, 0.65 WHIP and 5:1 K:BB across 7.2 innings.
