Dazzles in Tuesday's win Montas (6-8) picked up the win in Tuesday's 3-2 victory over the Cardinals, allowing one hit and one walk over seven scoreless innings. He struck out three.

Impact The 31-year-old right-hander retired the first 10 batters he faced before Alec Burleson poked a single up the middle in the fourth inning, and Montas never even let a runner get into scoring position before exiting after 89 pitches (56 strikes). He's been an astute trade deadline pickup for the Brewers so far, posting a 2.57 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 21:8 K:BB through his first four starts and 21 innings with his new team. Montas will carry a 13-inning scoreless streak into his next outing, which lines up to come on the road this weekend in Oakland against one of his former clubs.

Fans six in no-decision Montas did not factor into the decision in a win over the Dodgers on Wednesday, allowing three unearned runs on five hits and three walks over five innings while striking out six.

Impact Montas struggled early, allowing the first four batters to reach in the opening frame, though the leadoff man would only reach due to a fielding error by Joey Ortiz. The right-hander saw three unearned runs come across in the frame before holding the Dodgers scoreless over the next four innings. Montas has now allowed three runs or fewer in all three of his starts since being acquired by Milwaukee and has posted at least five strikeouts in four straight outings. Over that former stretch he's gone 1-0 while posting a 18:7 K:BB.

Lasts four frames in no-decision Montas allowed three runs on two hits and four walks over four innings during Thursday's 16-7 win against Atlanta. He struck out seven and did not factor in the decision.

Impact The right-hander started off the contest with two scoreless frames and five punchouts, but Austin Riley tagged him for a three-run homer during the third inning. Montas needed 91 pitches (55 strikes) to record just 12 outs, as he was unable to complete the necessary five innings to qualify for a win after Milwaukee spotted him an 8-0 lead. The 31-year-old has a 5.10 ERA through 21 starts this season, and he's given up six runs over five innings across two outings since being acquired by the Brewers.

Nabs win in Brew Crew debut Montas (5-8) picked up the win Friday, giving up three runs on nine hits over five innings in an 8-3 victory over the Nationals. He struck out five without walking a batter.

Impact The right-hander was solid in his Milwaukee debut, tossing 58 of 89 pitches for strikes and issuing zero free passes for the first time since he got the Opening Day assignment for Cincinnati on March 28 -- a start which coincidentally also came against Washington. Montas has lasted more than five innings only once in his last five outings, a stretch in which he's stumbled to a 7.27 ERA while serving up seven home runs in 26 innings, and CJ Abrams did tag him for a two-run shot in the third inning Friday. Montas will try to keep the ball in the park, and give his new team some length, when he makes his next trip to the mound on the road next week in Atlanta.

Debuting for Milwaukee on Friday Montas is scheduled to make his debut for the Brewers against the Nationals on Friday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact The right-hander was acquired by Milwaukee from Cincinnati on Monday, and he'll make his team debut on the road in Washington. Montas hasn't been particularly effective this season with a 5.01 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 78:41 K:BB over 93.1 innings, but in recent years the Brewers have been one of the better teams in the majors when it comes to getting the most out of their pitchers.

Traded to Milwaukee The Brewers acquired Montas from the Reds on Monday in exchange for outfielder Joey Wiemer, right-hander Jakob Junis and cash considerations, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

Impact Montas will remain in the NL Central, heading to Milwaukee after compiling a 5.01 ERA and 1.44 WHIP with 78 strikeouts over 93.1 innings in 19 starts with the Reds this season. The right-hander has had a rough three-start run since July 10, allowing 16 runs over 16 innings, raising his ERA from 4.19 to 5.01.
