Brewers 2025 Discussion - Frelick Activated, Black Sent Down

I'm a little confused how a healthy vet like Quintana won't be ready. He wasn't that late arriving to camp and I would assume he would have had a throwing routine going since he planned on playing this season.

I get it's a long season and no need to risk anything at this point it's just a little confusing given the circumstances.

There's an off day in NY. His regular rest (4 days) would have him pitching game 5 on April 1. I can see giving him an extra day though.

I was coming to post the same thing. He signed March 5th and was presumably on his own throwing program to stay in shape while waiting to sign. How he wouldn't be ready to make a start for us in that second series of the season I don't quite understand.

I doubt he did any serious throwing as a free agent, if he did any throwing at all. He wouldn’t risk an injury. He was waiting for a team to pay him to throw.

If Turang is out opening day, what is our infield? Ortiz at SS, Durbin at 2B, and Dunn at 3B? Capra possibly in play? Looks like Durbin had a mediocre spring.

Is Tyler Black making the team? Saw his numbers… oooof.

With the Yanks starting a lefty I'd guess we'd see Durbin, Ortiz, & Capra start
