Though he didn’t make the team out of Spring Training, it was widely expected that Adrian Houser would see some action with the Milwaukee Brewers in 2019. What wasn’t known was whether that action would be as a starter as a reliever.
It turned out that Houser would be used in both capacities. As a reliever, he was near dominant, but as a starter, at first anyway, the results were mixed. By the end of the year, though, he was arguably Milwaukee’s second most reliable starter outside of Jordan Lyles. Combined, Houser’s 2019 performance earns him high marks.
