Garrett Stallings coverage
3 players who could be surprise additions to Brewers' 2026 postseason roster
The Brewers are one win or Braves loss away from clinching a first-round bye and advancing directly to the NLDS, which they'll begin on October 3. For their playoff roster, Milwaukee is expected to carry 14 position players and 12 pitchers, creating roster construction decisions heading into the postseason. Pitcher Garrett Stallings, a 29-year-old rookie with a 0.00 ERA across 14 innings this season, could be a surprise addition if the team needs an innings eater, though he faces competition from 12 other pitchers who appear to be locks. Catcher Bo Naylor, recently called up when rosters expanded, has seen limited action behind William Contreras and Gary Sánchez but could emerge as a playoff roster candidate.
Reviewing the BrewGame Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (95-58) @ Baltimore Orioles (75-78)
The Brewers face the Orioles in Milwaukee's final interleague series of the season, needing to go 5-4 down the stretch to reach 100 wins for the first time in franchise history while also chasing the Dodgers for the top playoff seed. Dustin May takes the mound for Milwaukee after a mixed tenure with the team, though he delivered a dominant six-inning shutout in his last start against Cincinnati. Baltimore counters with lefty Cade Povich, who carries a 4.05 ERA this season and has faced only two Brewers previously, both of whom recorded hits off him. The Brewers made a roster move by optioning Garrett Stallings to Triple-A and recalling Colton Gordon.
Brew Crew BallBrewers call up forgotten piece of Lance McCullers Jr. trade for bullpen reinforcement
The Milwaukee Brewers promoted left-hander Colton Gordon to the major leagues after acquiring him from Houston at the All-Star Break as the real centerpiece of a trade that also brought Lance McCullers Jr., who was quickly designated for assignment. Gordon spent two months pitching for Triple-A Nashville, posting a 4.67 ERA over 54 innings with 10 home runs allowed despite limiting walks. The Brewers called him up to bolster their bullpen following Kyle Harrison's short outing in Pittsburgh, optioning right-hander Garrett Stallings to make room. Gordon features a mix of fastballs, slider, and off-speed pitches, though he has struggled with home runs and inconsistent command within the strike zone.
Reviewing the Brew3 Brewers pitchers who could make surprise starts down the stretch as team rests rotation regulars
The Brewers clinched the NL Central and home playoff games, allowing them to rest their regular rotation arms down the stretch. Coleman Crow, a 25-year-old Triple-A pitcher with a 3.76 ERA and eight wins this season, has already made four major league starts and could return for additional appearances in September to gain experience. Brent Stallings, a 29-year-old rookie reliever currently on the roster, has pitched 11 scoreless innings with 11 strikeouts and could potentially make a spot start given his experience as both a starter and reliever in the minors.

The Brewers had an exceptional week highlighted by dominant pitching and explosive offensive performances. Robert Gasser led the way with 9 2/3 innings across two starts, posting a 1.86 ERA with 10 strikeouts, while relievers like Garrett Stallings made history by recording a save in the team's 20-0 shutout victory over the Reds on Friday. William Contreras paced the offense with three home runs and 12 RBIs, and Jackson Chourio led the team with 13 hits and a .481 batting average as the Brewers won five games and moved up to 28th in home runs league-wide with 146.
Brew Crew BallGame Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (91-56) vs. Cincinnati Reds (69-77)
The Brewers can clinch a playoff spot tonight against the Reds with a win or losses by San Diego and Arizona, coming off a sweep of the Cubs that essentially secured the NL Central. Milwaukee's postseason pitching rotation remains uncertain, with Dustin May and Kyle Harrison competing for spots; May makes his seventh start as a Brewer after struggling in his last two outings with six runs allowed in eight innings. The Reds counter with lefty Andrew Abbott, who has posted a 4.43 ERA this season but performed better against Milwaukee in two previous starts, allowing three earned runs over nine innings. Brandon Sproat was sent to Triple-A Nashville following a poor outing, while Garrett Stallings was recalled to the roster.
Brew Crew BallBrewers to give 29-year-old rookie right-hander another opportunity in the big leagues
Garrett Stallings, a 29-year-old right-hander making his debut season with the Brewers, has been promoted to the major-league roster for the final month of the season. Stallings was drafted by the Angels in 2019 but didn't begin his professional career until 2021 due to the minor league cancellation, and has since been traded twice before joining Milwaukee in May 2024. Since his July 2 debut, he has pitched 8.0 innings without allowing a run across multiple stints between the majors and Triple-A. The Brewers made the move by optioning Brandon Sproat to Triple-A after a poor relief appearance.
