Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts Has Overcome A 3-0 Deficit Once; Can He Do It Again?

Expected to draw Game 4 start The Brewers are expected to start Drohan on Thursday in Game 4 of the NLCS, Tom Verducci of SI.com reports.

Impact Though he made 19 starts for the Brewers during the regular season, Drohan has not pitched in more than two weeks and is not stretched out to handle a regular starter's workload. Thus, it could be more of an opener assignment than a traditional start, with Dustin May likely to cover some innings out of the bullpen.

Grabs second save Drohan struck out two over 1.2 perfect innings to earn the save in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Chad Patrick ran into trouble in the eighth inning, prompting Drohan to come into the game. Drohan did his job, throwing 13 of 21 pitches for strikes in this relief appearance, which could be a preview of his usage during the postseason. With his background as a starter, he'll likely be tasked with multi-inning assignments if he works out of the bullpen in October. Drohan finished the regular season at a 4.19 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 125:44 K:BB across 124.2 innings over 33 games (19 starts). He also collected two saves and three holds.

Makes abbreviated start Thursday Drohan took a no-decision in his start in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Phillies, striking out two batters while allowing one run on three hits and two walks.

Impact Drohan picked up his first start since Sept. 12, after the Brewers used him in relief for both of his prior two appearances. He handled a limited workload in his return to the rotation, tossing just 47 pitches while facing 13 batters before the Brewers turned the game over to the bullpen. Drohan is likely to shift back to a relief role if Milwaukee opts to include him on its postseason roster.

Brewers Make Shane Drohan's Playoff Roster Status Clear It sure sounds like the Milwaukee Brewers rookie is going to be on the playoff roster, to say the least.

SEPTEMBER 25 • SI.COM

Works in relief again Friday Drohan struck out two and allowed no hits and one walk over 1.2 scoreless innings of relief in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning victory over the Orioles.

Impact After making starts in all but one of his 13 appearances from the start of June through Sept. 12, Drohan has now worked out of the bullpen in his last two outings. With the Brewers having pared down their rotation as the regular season winds down, Drohan is expected to continue prepping for a relief role heading into the playoffs.

SEPTEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Hit hard in no-decision Drohan didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Reds, allowing five runs on five hits and two walks in 3.2 innings. He struck out four.

Impact Drohan received plenty of run support, as the Brewers staked him to an early 4-0 lead, but he couldn't last long enough to qualify for the win Saturday. The rookie southpaw is showing signs of fatigue late in the season, conceding at least five runs while working four innings or fewer in consecutive outings. He'll try to right the ship his next time out in Baltimore, where he'll bring a 4.35 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 119:41 K:BB over 118 innings.

SEPTEMBER 13 • Associated Press

Escapes with no-decision Friday Drohan didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 10-7 win over the Reds, surrendering six runs on five hits and two walks over four innings. He struck out five.

Impact The southpaw tied his season high in runs allowed while serving up multiple homers for just the second time in 28 appearances (17 starts), but Drohan got taken off the hook for his sixth loss when the Brewers erupted for five runs in the fifth. Drohan is approaching his career high in innings -- he's worked 128 frames this year between Triple-A and the majors, just shy of the 129.2 innings he tossed in 2022 between High-A and Double-A, and far more than the 70.1 innings he managed in 2024 and 2025 combined -- and fatigue may be setting in. Over six appearances (five starts) since the beginning of August, he's stumbled to a 6.15 ERA, 1.78 WHIP and 26:15 K:BB in 26.1 innings. He'll try to bounce back in his next trip to the mound, which is set to come at home next weekend in a rematch with the Reds.

Strikes out six in win Drohan (7-5) earned the win against the Rangers on Saturday, allowing one run on six hits and one walk with six strikeouts over five innings.

Impact Drohan allowed a solo homer in the fifth inning but was otherwise strong, throwing 63 of a season-high 99 pitches for strikes with 15 whiffs. The southpaw opened August with a six-run blowup but has since posted a 3.12 ERA over his past four outings, one of which was a two-inning relief appearance. He'll take a 3.75 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 110:37 K:BB across 110.1 frames into a road matchup with the Reds next weekend.

Dealt fifth loss Drohan (6-5) allowed two runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out five over five innings to take the loss versus Atlanta on Sunday in the Little League Classic.

Impact After a relief appearance earlier in the week, Drohan was back in the rotation. While he didn't have a poor start, the 11 baserunners he allowed got his pitch count up quickly, and he exited at 83 pitches (54 strikes). Drohan is now at a 3.84 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 104:36 K:BB through 105.1 innings over 26 games (15 starts) this season. The left-hander is expected to face some workload limitations over the final month-plus of the season, which could lead to him filling a multi-inning relief role if/when the Brewers trim their rotation back down to five starters.

Rejoining rotation Sunday Drohan is slated to start Sunday's game against Atlanta in the MLB Little League Classic in Williamsport, Pa., Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Drohan had made 13 consecutive appearances as a starter before the Brewers made him available out of the bullpen Tuesday, when he struck out a batter and allowed one hit and two walks over two innings in a 22-0 win over the Mariners. The southpaw will slot back into Milwaukee's six-man rotation this week, but he appears to be the pitcher most at risk of losing his starting spot once the Brewers eventually condense the rotation to five as the postseason draws closer. Murphy acknowledged as much Sunday, telling McCalvy that the Brewers have discussed the possibility of shifting Drohan into a hybrid role in an effort to keep his innings in check. After missing most of the 2024 campaign while recovering from left shoulder nerve decompression surgery, Drohan covered 54 innings between two minor-league stops in the Red Sox organization in 2025. He's already up to 114 innings between Milwaukee and Triple-A Nashville this season.

Brewers Match Baseball’s Modern-Era Record For Biggest Shutout With 22-0 Win

Takes no-decision against Dodgers Drohan allowed three runs on three hits and three walks while striking out five over 5.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Thursday.

Impact Given the difficulty of the opponent, this was a fair performance for Drohan, who threw 53 of 85 pitches for strikes. He's worked into the sixth inning in seven of his last eight outings, but he's given up at least three runs in six of those games. On the year, he has a 3.94 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 98:31 K:BB through 98.1 innings over 24 games (14 starts). Drohan looks set to have a starting role as long as the Brewers stick with a six-man rotation, and his next outing is projected to be at home versus the Mariners.
