Fedde, 32, has a 5.76 ERA over 125 innings this season and is expected to primarily serve in a mop-up role.

The Brewers' All-Star closer Trevor Megill is on the 15-day injured list with a right flexor strain, which is expected to sideline him for approximately 70 days, raising concerns about his availability for the postseason.

Megill, who has a strong record of 5-3 with a 2.54 ERA and 30 saves, considers his injury minor and aims to recover in time for the playoffs.

In Megill’s absence, the Brewers are adopting a closer-by-committee approach, utilizing pitchers like Abner Uribe, Shelby Miller, Jared Koenig, Aaron Ashby, and Nick Mears for save opportunities.

Abner Uribe, who has a 1.71 ERA and three saves over 63 appearances, is expected to take the first chance at closing in Megill’s absence.

Trevor Megill has blown three of his last four save opportunities, and his injury has prompted the team to explore multiple options for closing roles.

In a recent game, Isaac Collins hit a bases-loaded sacrifice fly in the ninth inning to secure a win against Arizona, overcoming a six-run deficit earlier in the game.

Other notable games included the Athletics' walk-off 7-6 victory over the Tigers and Justin Verlander earning his first home win with the Giants since joining the team, with a strong performance against the Cubs.

The Brewers currently lead Major League Baseball with the best record, likely securing home-field advantage and a first-round bye in the upcoming postseason.

The average recovery time for a flexor strain is about 70 days, which casts doubt on Megill’s ability to return before the playoffs begin.

The Milwaukee Brewers have signed veteran pitcher Erick Fedde, who was activated in time to pitch against Arizona, marking his third team this season after being released by the Atlanta Braves three days prior.
