• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Will be slow-played in camp

  Rotowire Feb 11, 2026

  Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Wednesday that Priester will be brought along slowly at the start of camp, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Priester is recovered from the wrist injury he dealt with late last season, but Murphy said that the right-hander has "had a couple things that have kept him from progressing." The manager added that Priester hasn't been shut down and has thrown bullpen sessions, so the Brewers are seemingly just being extra cautious with him. Priester went 13-3 with a 3.32 ERA and 132:50 K:BB over 157.1 frames with Milwaukee during the regular season.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Fires four strong innings vs. LA

  Rotowire Oct 13, 2025

  Priester allowed three hits and three walks while striking out one over four scoreless innings Monday in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers. He didn't factor into the decision. Priester followed Milwaukee's opener, Aaron Ashby, who tossed a scoreless first inning before stepping aside. The 25-year-old right-hander bounced back from a tough outing in Game 3 of the NLDS against Chicago, delivering four scoreless frames despite navigating around some traffic on the bases. Priester was assisted by an incredible 8-6-2 double play in the top of the fourth inning, helping him out of a bases-loaded jam. He also managed to induce a key double play to end the fifth, exiting his appearance in a scoreless game.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Unable to escape first inning

  Rotowire Oct 9, 2025

  Priester took the loss in Game 3 of the NLDS against the Cubs on Wednesday after giving up four earned runs on three hits and two walks while striking out one batter over two-thirds of an inning. Although he took the mound in the first inning with a 1-0 lead, Priester was never able to settle into Wednesday's contest. He coughed up a leadoff homer to Michael Busch before allowing three of the next four batters he faced to reach base. A Pete Crow-Armstrong single brought in two more runs for Chicago and forced Brewers manager Pat Murphy to turn to Nick Mears, who allowed an inherited runner to score. Milwaukee's offense was unable to close the gap over the next eight frames, so the two sides will play another game at Wrigley Field on Thursday. Meanwhile, Priester will likely be kept off the mound for the remainder of the series.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Win streak finally ends

  Rotowire Sep 27, 2025

  Priester (13-3) took the loss Friday, giving up three runs on nine hits and a walk over five innings as the Brewers fell 3-1 to the Reds. He struck out four. For the first time since May 13, Priester found his name in the loss column, ending a streak of 12 straight winning decisions. The right-hander is still taking plenty of momentum into the postseason, however -- he hasn't allowed more than three runs in a start since Aug. 10, posting a 2.79 ERA over his last seven trips to the mound and 38.2 innings. With Milwaukee locked into a first-round bye, Priester will close the books on his 2025 regular season having compiled a 3.32 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 132:50 K:BB in 157.1 innings.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Fans 10 in no-decision

  Rotowire Sep 18, 2025

  Priester allowed two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out 10 over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Thursday. Priester was good, but he left the game with the Brewers trailing 2-1, denying him a chance at the win while also falling an out short of a quality start. His lone mistake Thursday was a two-run home run to Luis Rengifo in the fifth inning. This was Priester's third 10-plus strikeout game, and he's allowed just six runs over 18 innings across his three starts in September to carry over his positive momentum from the end of August. The 25-year-old right-hander is now at a 3.25 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 128:49 K:BB through 152.1 innings over 28 appearances (23 starts) this season. His last outing of the regular season is projected to be a road start in San Diego next week.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Another strong effort in 13th win

  Rotowire Sep 13, 2025

  Priester (13-2) picked up the win Friday against the Cardinals, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk in 5.1 innings. He struck out five. Priester is now on a five-start streak of yielding two runs or fewer. Additionally, he's given up two runs or fewer in 10 of his last 11 outings. The right-hander has found a home in Milwaukee this year, working to a strong 3.25 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 118:47 K:BB over 146.2 innings. He's next scheduled to face the Angels, who have a poor .651 OPS against right-handed pitching since the beginning of August.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Sets franchise record Friday

  Rotowire Sep 6, 2025

  Priester (12-2) picked up the win Friday, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk over seven innings in a 5-2 victory over the Pirates. He struck out six. The 25-year-old right-hander continued an incredible run that has seen him reel off 11 straight winning decisions since his last loss May 13, setting a new Brewers record in the process. The quality start was Priester's ninth of the year, and he's given up two runs or fewer in eight of nine outings since the All-Star break, posting a 2.73 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 43:14 K:BB in 52.2 innings over that stretch. He'll look to keep rolling in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come on the road next week against the Rangers.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Pushed to Saturday with wrist issue

  Rotowire Aug 27, 2025

  Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that Priester's next start will be pushed back to Saturday versus the Blue Jays due to a "wrist thing," Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Priester had been scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks, but the Brewers have opted to give him some extra rest due to a minor injury. Aaron Ashby is serving as the Brewers' opening pitcher, and the newly signed Erick Fedde will pitch in bulk relief for the Brewers on Wednesday.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Snags 10th win

  Rotowire Jul 29, 2025

  Priester (10-2) yielded two runs on eight hits and two walks over 5.2 innings Tuesday, striking out three and earning a win over the Cubs. Priester fell one out short of delivering his fourth straight quality start but still moved 9-0 over his last 11 appearances. He gave up one run through five innings before Nico Hoerner knocked a solo shot in the sixth. Priester generated 11 swinging strikes on 86 pitches, including five with his slider. He's produced a 2.49 ERA over his last 12 starts, bringing his season ERA down to 3.27 with an 89:36 K:BB across 107.1 innings. Priester has not been charged with a loss since May 13. He'll look to continue riding the momentum in Atlanta next week.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Excels in relief with seventh win

  Rotowire Jul 12, 2025

  Priester (7-2) earned the win Friday against the Nationals, giving up two runs on four hits and two walks in six innings. He struck out five. The Brewers deployed Priester in relief for the fifth time this season, and the hurler piggybacked off opener DL Hall with six strong innings. Milwaukee jumped out to a 6-1 lead in the third inning, and Priester was able to keep Washington off balance while inducing nine groundouts. The 24-year-old right-hander has emerged as a legitimate weapon in 2025, working to a 3.55 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 70:32 K:BB over a career-high 88.2 innings, but it remains to be seen how Priester will be utilized once Nestor Cortes (elbow) wraps up his rehab assignment.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Hit hard in no-decision

  Rotowire Jul 5, 2025

  Priester came away with a no-decision in Friday's 6-5 win over the Marlins, giving up five runs (four earned) on seven hits and two walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out four. Homers by Connor Norby in the fourth inning and Otto Lopez in the fifth accounted for most of the damage off Priester, who got the hook after 83 pitches (52 strikes). The right-hander has failed to last five innings in two of his last three outings, serving up multiple long balls in each, but he hasn't been saddled with a loss since May 13 -- a stretch of nine starts in which he's posted a 2.92 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 42:9 K:BB in 49.1 innings while going 5-0. Priester will look for his sixth straight winning decision in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come at home next weekend against the Nationals.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Masterful in sixth win

  Rotowire Jun 29, 2025

  Priester (6-2) earned the win Saturday, allowing one hit and two walks over seven scoreless innings against the Rockies. He struck out 11. Priester was dominant, setting season highs in both innings pitched and strikeouts while allowing no runs in a start for the first time since April 15. The 2019 first-rounder appears to be hitting his stride in his first year with the Brewers, posting a 1.98 ERA and 1.02 WHIP over five starts spanning 27.1 innings in June. Those outings have helped lower the right-hander's season ERA to 3.35 with a 1.23 WHIP across 15 starts and 78.0 innings.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Serving as bulk reliever Wednesday

  Rotowire Jun 4, 2025

  Priester is scheduled to work in bulk relief behind opening pitcher DL Hall in Wednesday's game against the Reds, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Milwaukee will go back to the Hall/Priester combination after the two successfully worked in tandem this past Friday against the Phillies. In that game, Hall opened the contest with three no-hit, shutout innings, while Priester followed with six innings of two-run ball to earn the win. Hall could work slightly deeper into Wednesday's contest if he's efficient with his pitch count, but Priester still profiles as the Milwaukee pitcher most likely to factor into the decision.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Fans seven in no-decision

  Rotowire May 24, 2025

  Priester did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing one run on six hits and one walk over six innings in a 2-1 loss against the Pirates. He struck out seven. Priester gave up a run on two hits in the first inning but settled in and worked around traffic to throw five scoreless frames afterward. A blister on his right middle finger factored into the decision to lift him after just 84 pitches, manager Pat Murphy said postgame. Since getting roughed up for seven runs May 2 against the Cubs, the 24-year-old has posted a 2.53 ERA across 21.1 innings over his last four outings. The right-hander has been used as both a starter and a long reliever this season, pitching to a 4.23 ERA and 1.43 WHIP through nine appearances and seven starts.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Handed tough-luck loss

  Rotowire May 13, 2025

  Priester (1-2) yielded a run on three hits and two walks over five innings Tuesday, striking out three and taking a loss against the Guardians. Priester coughed up a solo homer to Jose Ramirez in the first inning but kept Cleveland's bats fairly quiet for the next four frames. It was Priester's second straight loss despite yielding only two earned runs (four total runs) in those outings. He threw 39 of 69 pitches for strikes and forced only four whiffs Tuesday. His ERA fell to 4.59 with a 23:21 K:BB through 33.1 innings. Priester is lined up to face the Orioles at home next week.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Stuck with first loss

  Rotowire May 7, 2025

  Priester (1-1) took the loss Wednesday, giving up three runs (one earned) on three hits and three walks over five innings as the Brewers were downed 9-1 by the Astros. He struck out three. The right-hander didn't get much help from his offense or his defense, but Priester didn't aid his own cause by issuing at least three walks for the fifth straight outing. After a promising beginning to his stint in the Milwaukee rotation, he's been tagged for 15 runs (13 earned) over his last 14.1 innings with a 9:10 K:BB. With Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) having built up to 83 pitches in his most recent rehab start for Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday and Aaron Civale (hamstring) likely not far behind him in returning from the IL, Priester's time with the big club figures to be running short. If he does get another start, it'll come on the road early next week in Cleveland.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Will follow Alexander on Friday

  Rotowire May 2, 2025

  Priester will work behind Tyler Alexander in Friday's game against the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Alexander is expected to serve as merely an opener against Chicago, so Priester should still handle the bulk of the innings. Priester struggled in his last start against the Cardinals, giving up five runs on eight hits and three walks across five innings in a no-decision.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Remains in rotation

  Rotowire Apr 14, 2025

  Priester is scheduled to make his second start with the Brewers on Tuesday versus the Tigers at American Family Field, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. Milwaukee's rotation became more crowded after Jose Quintana was called up from Triple-A Nashville this past Friday to make his team debut, but Priester will retain a starting role after the Brewers moved Elvin Rodriguez to the bullpen. Priester's standing in the rotation could be on shakier ground in the coming weeks once Tobias Myers (oblique) and Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) are likely ready to return from the 15-day injured list, but the 24-year-old righty did his part to make a strong first impression after being acquired from the Red Sox last Monday. The Brewers tapped Priester to start three days later, and he held his own in a tough environment for pitchers in Colorado, limiting the Rockies to one earned run on six hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Five solid innings in team debut

  Rotowire Apr 10, 2025

  Priester didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Rockies after allowing one run on five hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out four. Other than giving up a leadoff solo homer to Brenton Doyle in the first inning, Priester kept Colorado's bats in check in a tough spot at hitter-friendly Coors Field in his Brewers debut. Priester is helping fill in for the injured Nestor Cortes (elbow) among other sidelined starters, although the right-hander figures to be unlikely to maintain a rotation spot once Milwaukee's pitching staff gets healthier. As it stands, the former top prospect is tentatively scheduled to next face the Tigers at home early next week.

• Brewers' Quinn Priester: Traded to Milwaukee

  Rotowire Apr 7, 2025

  The Brewers acquired Priester from the Red Sox on Monday in exchange for Yophery Rodriguez, a Competitive Balance Round A draft pick, and a player to be named later or cash considerations. Priester had been at Triple-A Worcester, where he allowed two runs with a 6:0 K:BB over four innings in his first start. He will join the major-league club in Milwaukee and should immediately slide into a rotation that's been hit hard by injuries. It's the second time since last summer that Priester has been traded, as he went from the Pirates to the Red Sox for Nick Yorke in July.
