ERIC LAUER NEWS

Starting must-win Game 4 Lauer will start Game 4 of the NLDS on Tuesday against Atlanta.

Impact This will be Lauer's postseason debut. He gave up five runs in five innings against the Dodgers on Oct. 1 -- his last appearance -- but he logged a 1.15 ERA, 0.70 WHIP and 32:8 K:BB in 31.1 innings over his five starts prior to that final outing. With this being a must-win game for Milwaukee, manager Craig Counsell will likely turn to his bullpen at the first sign of trouble, and Lauer almost certainly won't face any hitters more than twice.

No-decision Friday Lauer didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Dodgers after allowing five runs on six hits and two walks while fanning three across five innings.

Impact Lauer had given up one or fewer runs in each of his last five starts, but the wheels came off in this one and posted his second-worst mark of the season when it comes to runs allowed. He was facing one of the best offenses in the National League, however, and this poor outing shouldn't erase the great job he's been doing on the mound of late. The southpaw will end the regular season with career-best marks in both ERA (3.19) and WHIP (1.14) across 24 appearances (20 starts).

Quiets Mets in win Friday Lauer (7-5) allowed one run on three hits while walking two and striking out nine as he got the win over the Mets on Friday.

Impact Lauer continued his streak of dominance with his third win over his last four starts. The 26-year-old has allowed one run or less in each of his five starts in September and recorded a season-high nine strikeouts Friday. The Mets got to him in the opening frame after Brandon Nimmo tripled to lead off the game and Francisco Lindor grounded out to the shortstop to bring him home. Lauer has definitely solidified himself as the Brewers' No. 4 pitcher heading into the postseason, but first is projected for a showdown against the Dodgers next week. He'll carry a 2.93 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 114:39 K:BB into his next start.
