Robert Gasser To Throw Two Innings Saturday
8 months agoMilwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Robert Gasser (elbow), who has been sidelined with bone spurs in his left elbow, is scheduled to throw two innings in an extended spring training game this Saturday. The club's No. 6 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, will begin building back up and should eventually be sent to Triple-A Nashville. Gasser had a 3.09 ERA and 1.17 WHIP with 115 strikeouts in his final 93 1/3 innings for Nashville in 2023 and should at least be a backend starter for the Brew Crew eventually at the major-league level, potentially later this season. He uses a fastball-sinker combination to set up his nasty slider, and he's been able to put up solid strikeout numbers in the minors thanks to his good control. Gasser has the stuff to warrant stashing in AL-only leagues for a potential big-league debut later in 2024.
