Alex Claudio exits early after comebacker Saturday

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Alex Claudio left Saturday's Cactus League game after being hit in the leg by a comebacker.

Fantasy Impact

The comebacker came off the bat of the first and only batter Claudio would face on the day as he left the game after completing the Nick Pratto groundout. Brewers skipper Craig Counsell did not have an official update on the southpaw but did say after the game he thinks Claudio will be OK. The 31-year-old has scuffled in recent seasons and pitched just 3 1/3 innings in 2022. He owns a career 3.60 ERA across 355 big-league appearances but has posted an ERA of 4.06 or worse in each of his last four seasons prior to 2022.
