Alec Bettinger: Cut by Milwaukee
The Brewers released Bettinger on Sunday.
Bettinger reached the big leagues for the first time in his age-25 campaign in 2021, but he didn't have much staying power with Milwaukee after surrendering 15 earned runs in 10 innings across four appearances (one start). He failed to make the Opening Day roster and was outrighted off the 40-man roster in May, and he didn't show enough of a turnaround in his performance at Triple-A Nashville for the Brewers to justify keeping him around in the organization. Over his 13 outings (six starts) with Nashville this season, Bettinger compiled a 6.49 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and 21:21 K:BB in 34.2 innings.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Called up by Brewers
Bettinger was recalled by the Brewers on Thursday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Bettinger has been primarily a starter in the minors and filled that role in one of his four major-league appearances this season, but it looks as though he'll be a reliever for now. He's filling the roster spot that had belonged to Brett Anderson, who landed on the injured list with a bruised shoulder, but Anderson just pitched Wednesday, so his turn in the rotation isn't due up for several days.

Bettinger was called up by the Brewers on Thursday, and he allowed one run on two hits and no walks in a relief inning during the win over the Pirates. He'll return to the minors after left-hander Hoby Milner was recalled in a corresponding move.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Summoned to big club

In a corresponding move, Milwaukee optioned Aaron Ashby to Triple-A after he was blasted for seven runs (four earned) while failing to escape the first inning in his first MLB start Wednesday.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Rejoins Brewers
The Brewers recalled Bettinger from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Called up by Brewers
The Brewers recalled Bettinger from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.
Bettinger spent almost two weeks with Nashville after being optioned May 9, but he now returns to the Brewers for what figures to be a long-relief role. Two appearances is an insufficient sample size, but his 15.43 ERA certainly could use some improvement.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Sent to Triple-A
Bettinger was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.
The 25-year-old was lit up for 11 runs in his big-league debut against the Dodgers last weekend, but he responded well with one run given up over three innings versus the Marlins on Friday. Brett Anderson (hamstring) was activated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move, while Bettinger figures to join the starting rotation at Nashville.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Lit up by Dodgers
Bettinger (0-1) allowed 11 runs on 11 hits and two walks over four innings in a loss to the Dodgers on Sunday. He didn't record a strikeout.
Bettinger's major-league debut realistically couldn't have gone much worse than it did. The biggest hits against him were a pair of grand slams from AJ Pollock and Matt Beaty within the first two innings. Bettinger had a 3.44 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 157:35 K:BB with Double-A Biloxi in 2019, but the right-hander may need more time in the minors before he can contribute positively for Milwaukee at the big-league level.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Starting Sunday in big-league debut
Manager Craig Counsell announced Bettinger will start Sunday's game against the Dodgers, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
The 25-year-old was promoted from the alternate training site Thursday and will receive the start Sunday for his major-league debut. The right-hander will fill the rotation spot of Corbin Burnes (undisclosed) and face the reigning World Series champs. Bettinger worked at the alternate training site last year and spent 2019 at Double-A Biloxi where he posted a 3.44 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 157:35 K:BB over 146.1 innings.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Promotion official
The Brewers recalled Bettinger from their alternate training site Thursday.
Milwaukee cleared a spot on the active roster for Bettinger by placing Corbin Burnes on the 10-day injured list for an unspecified reason. Since Burnes was scheduled to start Sunday's series finale against the Dodgers, Bettinger could be a candidate to fill what will likely be a short-term opening in the Milwaukee rotation. The 25-year-old right-hander last pitched in affiliated ball in 2019, when he posted a 3.44 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 157:35 K:BB in 146.1 innings for Double-A Biloxi.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Call-up on tap
The Brewers will recall Bettinger (elbow) from their alternate training site ahead of Thursday's series opener against the Dodgers, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Bettinger didn't pitch at all during the Brewers' Cactus League slate while dealing with a right elbow injury, but he's returned to full health since the Brewers headed north for Opening Day. While Milwaukee intends to develop Bettinger as a starter, he'll work in long relief during his first stint in the majors. After Wednesday's starter, Zack Godley, gave the Brewers only three innings in a loss to the Marlins before exiting with a finger injury, Bettinger should provide a fresh arm for the team's taxed bullpen.

Brewers' Alec Bettinger: Slowed by elbow soreness
Bettinger battled elbow soreness early in camp but has resumed throwing, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
The injury doesn't sound like it will significantly impede Bettinger's preseason preparation. While he's on the Brewers' 40-man roster, he's yet to pitch above Double-A, so he's unlikely to be in serious consideration for an Opening Day roster spot.
