Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Brewers fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
In this week’s Reacts survey, we asked fans which young pitcher they’re most looking forward to seeing play with the Brewers this season. The results were a bit more split than I honestly expected. I’m not surprised at the order, though.
Brandon Sproat finished atop the voting at 39%,
followed by Kyle Harrison (27%), Logan Henderson (23%), and Robert Gasser (11%). Sproat and Harrison, two of the newest Brewers, are also the only two of the group in the majors right now. Both Henderson and Gasser are at Triple-A, though they’re certainly among the “first men up” in the event of an injury or bad performance.
While we haven’t yet gotten a glimpse at Sproat or Harrison, both are slated to pitch in the next few days; Sproat gets the start on Sunday against the White Sox, and Harrison will follow against the Rays on Monday.
In a quick cup of coffee with the Mets last year, Sproat made four starts, pitching to a 4.79 ERA, 2.80 FIP, and 17 strikeouts over 20 2/3 innings. Harrison, still only 24, is the most experienced of the group, as he’s made 42 appearances (37 starts) over three seasons with the Giants and Red Sox. In 2025, he appeared in 11 games (six starts) between the two teams, pitching to a 4.04 ERA, 3.72 FIP, and 38 strikeouts over 35 2/3 innings.
Gasser and Henderson each had cameos with Milwaukee the last two seasons, as Gasser has made seven starts with a 2.67 ERA, 3.96 FIP, and 21 strikeouts over 33 2/3 innings with a Tommy John surgery in the middle. Henderson made five starts with a 1.78 ERA, 3.02 FIP, and 33 strikeouts over 25 1/3 innings in 2025 but dealt with elbow injuries in the second half of the season. Elbow soreness lingered this spring, but the team sounds hopeful that it’ll clear up with some extra rest.
It should be a fun season with so much young talent in the rotation! Thanks for participating in our Reacts survey, and be sure to use FanDuel Sportsbook for all of your sports betting needs.
