TREVOR MEGILL NEWS

Notches seventh save Megill gave up a hit and struck out three in a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday to record his seventh save of the season in a 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Impact After blowing his first save of the season the night before, Megill bounced back and fired 11 of 14 pitches for strikes to get the job done, with five of his fastballs clocking in at 99 mph or higher. The right-hander sports a 1.98 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 17:3 K:BB through 13.2 innings this season, and with Devin Williams (back) just now beginning to toss a baseball, Megill figures to handle closing duties with Milwaukee for at least another couple months.

Blows save against Miami Megill blew the save in Monday's loss to the Marlins. He allowed one run on two hits and no walks over one inning while striking out one.

Impact Megill gathered the first two outs of the ninth inning on three pitches before yielding a single to Nick Gordon. Gordon promptly stole second and then was subsequently driven home via an Otto Lopez single to tie the game. This is Megill's first blown save of the season, so he should maintain his role as the Milwaukee closer.

Back on active roster The Brewers reinstated Megill (paternity) from the restricted list Saturday.

Impact After moving Megill to the restricted list to give him extra time with his expanding family, the Brewers will get their flame-throwing reliever back a day later. After a rough start to the season, Megill has posted a 1.69 ERA and 1.13 WHIP over 16 innings since August 16, though the Brewers' immense bullpen depth has kept Megill from seeing many high-leverage opportunities. Clayton Andrews and Caleb Boushley were optioned to rookie ball in corresponding moves.

Moves to restricted list The Brewers transferred Megill (paternity) to the restricted list Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Megill was placed on the paternity list Tuesday, and his move to the restricted list will allow Megill to spend extra time away from the team. Manager Craig Counsell said Megill is expected to return to the team Saturday, so the 29-year-old's availability for the postseason seemingly won't be affected.

SEPTEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on paternity leave The Brewers placed Megill on the paternity list Tuesday.

Impact Megill will miss at least part of Milwaukee's three-game series against the visiting Cardinals as he welcomes a new addition to his growing family. Colin Rea has been summoned from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding roster move.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Working as opener Megill will serve as the opener for Tuesday's game against the Cardinals, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Megill is no stranger to this role, as he opened Milwaukee's matchup Wednesday against Miami and tossed a scoreless frame. The Brewers have yet to reveal who will enter as the bulk reliever, though Adrian Houser and Colin Rea should both be available.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Opening Wednesday Megill will start Wednesday's game against the Marlins, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

Impact After giving up just one run and striking out 22 batters through 11.2 innings since Aug. 16, Megill will get an opportunity to open for Milwaukee and make the first start of his professional career. Megill has thrown up to two innings (twice) in an appearance this season, and he likely won't be expected to last much longer than that Wednesday.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Trending up in August Megill threw two scoreless innings in Sunday's 10-6 victory over the Padres. He allowed three hits, struck out five batters and walked none.

Impact Megill was tasked with getting the final six outs with the Brewers holding a four-run lead heading into the eighth inning, and although he gave up a trio of hits he got the job done. He does not occupy a key role in Milwaukee's bullpen, but he has been as stingy as they come since being recalled from Triple-A Nashville in mid-August, tossing 7.1 scoreless innings while posting a 0.68 WHIP and 13:0 K:BB over six appearances.

AUGUST 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from Nashville Milwaukee recalled Megill from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Impact Megill will return to the Brewers' bullpen ahead of Tuesday night's game against the Dodgers as J.C. Mejia (shoulder) heads to the injured list. Megill, 29, carries a 5.09 ERA and 1.53 WHIP through 17.2 major-league innings this year.

AUGUST 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Nashville The Brewers optioned Megill to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.

Impact Megill made only one appearance out of the Milwaukee bullpen during his five-day stay in the majors and gave up two earned runs on four hits in two innings. The 29-year-old right-hander owns a 5.84 ERA in 83 career appearances at the big-league level.

AUGUST 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back in majors The Brewers recalled Megill from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

Impact With Justin Wilson (lat) headed back to the injured list, Megill will be brought back to the major-league club as Wilson's roster replacement. Megill holds a 4.60 ERA and 1.47 WHIP through 15.2 frames this season and will almost certainly be limited to low-leverage situations while in Milwaukee.

JULY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Nashville The Brewers optioned Megill to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact With the acquisition of Carlos Santana from Pittsburgh on Thursday, Megill will head back to the minors to free up a spot on the Brewers' roster. The 29-year-old righty holds a 4.60 ERA and 1.47 WHIP through 15.2 innings, but he could return to Milwaukee later this year if the Brewers are ever in need of a fresh bullpen arm.

JULY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from Triple-A Milwaukee recalled Megill from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Impact Megill will return to the Brewers' bullpen ahead of Tuesday's series opener against the Phillies. He carries a 4.91 ERA and 20:7 K:BB in 14.2 major-league innings this year.

JULY 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Nashville The Brewers optioned Megill to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Prior to Wednesday, Megill had gone six consecutive appearances without giving up a run. However, he was lit up for three runs over 1.1 innings during a loss to Arizona and will now return to the minors where he holds a 9.95 ERA through 12.2 innings this season. The Brewers have yet to announce a corresponding move, but a bullpen replacement should be added prior to Friday's game against Cleveland.

Picks up three punchouts Megill tossed a scoreless ninth inning in Saturday's 5-0 victory over the Pirates.

Impact Megill got a chance to finish Saturday's contest with the Brewers up a handful of runs, and after allowing a single to the first batter he faced he slammed the door by striking out the next three. Megill has primarily been used in mop-up duty, but he has been effective of late, tossing 4.2 scoreless innings while giving up just three hits and posting a 7:2 K:BB over his last five appearances.
