Summary
The Brewers scramble to patch up their pitching staff after Brian Fitzpatrick’s elbow injury sidelines him again, prompting a quick move to bring in Joel Kuhnel — a familiar face who’s never actually pitched for them this season. With eight pitchers already hurt this year, including Quinn Priester and others dealing with various injuries, the team’s depth is stretched thin. Kuhnel, 31, brings some recent bullpen experience but has a modest career record. As the Brewers wait for updates on Fitzpatrick — possibly facing Tommy John surgery — they’re hoping Kuhnel can help fill the void while they navigate a brutal injury crisis across the rotation.
