Adrian Houser Taking Over Jimmy Nelson's Rotation Spot
6 years agoThe Milwaukee Brewers are shuffling around their pitching staff moving Jimmy Nelson to the bullpen and placing Adrian Houser in the rotation to start on Wednesday versus the Mariners. Nelson has struggled in three starts in his return from shoulder surgery that kept him out of the entire 2018 campaign. He holds an ugly 9.75 ERA while striking out 13 and walking 10 batters in his 12.0 innings of work and can be dropped in all formats. Houser has "started" two games early in the season, but only threw a combined six innings in these contests. He's shined in the bullpen with a 2.27 ERA and 36 strikeouts in 31.2 innings, but doesn't hold much fantasy value until he gets fully stretched out as a starter.
