Split Squad Showdown: Brewers Face Mariners and Angels in Spring Training Action
Milwaukee is bringing the heat today with a split squad setup, sending one group to take on the last place Mariners in Peoria while the other half stays home in Phoenix to face the Angels. The Brewers are right there in the mix near the bottom of the Cactus League standings, and these matchups give them a chance to keep building before the regular season kicks off.
Harrison Takes the Mound for the Varsity Lineup
Kyle Harrison gets the nod in the home game versus the Angels, and honestly, this is a big one for him. Yeah, he's given up eight runs (seven earned) over seven innings this spring, but here's the thing: he's struck out 12 batters in those same seven frames. His stuff has looked solid, and with Quinn Priester injured and Brandon Woodruff still ramping up, Harrison has a legitimate shot at sticking in the rotation. This start is his chance to prove he belongs in Opening Day plans. Aaron Ashby and DL Hall, the team's two lefty swingmen, are also scheduled to pitch today.
Rodriguez Leads the Charge in Peoria
Over in Peoria against Seattle, Carlos Rodriguez gets the start. This is his second appearance since returning from World Baseball Classic duty with Nicaragua last week, when he threw two innings. He won't be alone either: Easton McGee and Jacob Waguespack are also slated to pitch for the Brewers in this game.
The Mariners are bringing a younger roster to this one, including Tyler Black leading off fresh off his own WBC action. You'll also see Jett Williams, Brock Wilken, Luis Lara, Cooper Pratt, and Marco Dinges taking their cuts. The Mariners sit at 7-17 in spring training, dead last in the Cactus League standings.
Game Time and Where to Watch
Both games kick off at 3:10 p.m. CT. The Peoria matchup against the Mariners is available on Brewers.TV, while the home game against the Angels airs on WTMJ and the Brewers Radio Network. The Angels come in at 12-14 this spring, so Milwaukee's got work to do on both fronts.
