Robert Gasser Seeking Second Opinion On Injured Elbow
6 months agoMilwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said in his pregame session on Monday that rookie left-hander Robert Gasser (elbow) is dealing with "some tightness, soreness" in his left elbow and that he's in the process of receiving a second opinion. In just the fifth start of his rookie season on Saturday against the Chicago White Sox, Gasser gave up three runs in five innings and was handed a no-decision. The 25-year-old southpaw apparently complained of elbow soreness and tightness after that outing, though, and now is unlikely to make his next scheduled turn in Milwaukee's rotation this week against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Brewers are likely to play it safe with their No. 4 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, so don't be surprised if he eventually lands on the injured list. Gasser has gone 2-0 with a 2.57 ERA and 1.04 WHIP with a 16:1 K:BB in his first five MLB starts in 2024.
