Brent Suter Hit With Loss In Five-Inning Effort
Brent Suter went five innings, giving up six hits, three earned runs and four strikeouts in the 10-4 loss to the Cincinnati Reds. Suter had a rough second inning where he gave up all three of his runs, but outside of that, it was smooth sailing for him through the other four innings. He displayed solid control, as he didn't allow a single walk and managed to maintain an impressive 69 pitch count through five innings of work. However, Brewers manager Craig Counsell decided to pull him out in favor of Oliver Drake. Suter will remain a desperation streaming option against favorable opponents and now ups his ERA to 4.87.

Brent Suter Agrees With Reds On One-Year Deal
Brent Suter and the Cincinnati Reds agreed to a one-year deal on Thursday, pending a physical, according to sources familiar with the deal. The contract pays him $2.5 million in 2024 with a $3.5 million club option or $500,000 buyout for the 2025 season. The 34-year-old southpaw comes to Cincy after posting a 3.38 ERA (3.44 FIP) and 1.29 WHIP with 25 walks and 55 strikeouts in 69 1/3 innings over 57 appearances (two starts) in his one and only season with the Colorado Rockies. He has a respectable 3.49 ERA and 1.22 WHIP in eight major-league seasons but has only one save to show for it in 464 total innings pitched. In a likely middle-relief role with the Reds, Suter will be off the fantasy radar in the majority of leagues.

Brent Suter Returns From Injured List Wednesday
Brent Suter has been activated from the injured list after recovering from an oblique injury. The left-handed reliever last pitched on June 20 before being placed on the 15-day IL. The 33-year-old has been excellent in his first season with the Rockies following parts of seven seasons with the Milwaukee Brewers, working to a 2.81 ERA across 31 appearances, although his 4.38 SIERA suggests regression is on the horizon. Suter has also benefited from a tiny 4.3% HR/FB that is well below his 12.5% career mark. Fellow southpaw Fernando Abad has been designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Brent Suter Left Off NLDS Roster With Oblique Strain
Brent Suter (oblique) was not included on the team's 26-man NLDS roster. He is dealing with a minor right oblique strain. The 32-year-old left-hander was a solid bullpen arm for the team this year. He made 61 appearances and posted a 3.07 ERA and a 1.31 WHIP while tallying 12 wins and nine holds. Lefty Eric Lauer, who was a starter for the team most of the year, could work in a relief role in the NLDS, and the team also has Aaron Ashby as a left-handed middle relief option out of the bullpen.
