The Brewers optioned Fitzpatrick to Triple-A Nashville on Friday.
Fitzpatrick offered a mixed bag in his first-ever stint in the majors, allowing just two runs (one earned) but with a 4:3 K:BB and seven hits allowed over 5.2 frames. He's clearing off the roster to make room for Coleman Crow, who will start Friday's game in Minnesota.

Brewers' Brian Fitzpatrick: Receives first big-league call-up
Rotowire
The Brewers selected Fitzpatrick's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.
Fitzpatrick had been off to a terrific start with Nashville, allowing just two unearned runs with an 11:2 K:BB over 10.1 innings. He'll receive his first call to the big leagues as a replacement in the Milwaukee bullpen for fellow left-hander Angel Zerpa (forearm), who was placed on the 15-day injured list.
