Eric Lauer pitching for Brewers versus Braves in NLDS Game 4
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Eric Lauer will start Game 4 of the NLDS on Tuesday versus right-hander Charlie Morton and the Atlanta Braves.
The Brewers are reluctant to start Corbin Burnes on short rest, so Lauer is receiving the call on Tuesday. This is an elimination game, so the 26-year-old left-hander could see a quick hook if he gets off to a slow start. Lauer's last outing was against the Los Angeles Dodgers on October 1. He ended the regular season with a 3.19 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, and 117 strikeouts over 118 2/3 innings.
numberFire's models project Lauer for 20.2 FanDuel points and he has an $8,800 salary on Tuesday. The southpaw has a higher strikeout rate versus righties, but he also allows a 44.6% fly-ball rate and 39.1% hard-hit rate. Meanwhile, Lauer owns a middling 17.9% strikeout rate and 12.8% walk rate versus left-handers.
