More roster notes:

- Jose Quintana agreed to be optioned to the Minors to complete his build-up.

- Only three “starting pitchers” but four length guys in ‘pen: Tyler Alexander, Chad Patrick, Elvin Rodriguez, Connor Thomas.

- Jake Bauers and Isaac Collins are on the team.

Fantasy Impact:

Bauers’ .939 OPS with 3 home runs in 15 spring games, following an offseason minor-league re-signing, earns him a Brewers roster spot Tuesday for occasional first base and DH starts. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should stash him, banking on his power for spot value in Milwaukee’s 2025 lineup if he gets regular at-bats.
