DENVER – New Brewers pitcher Quinn Priester was expected to make his first start with the Crew on Thursday.
“We think this guy can help us now and in the future,” Matt Arnold, GM and Senior VP, told WTMJ’s Wis. Morning News on Thursday. “He’s not a finished product, but he’s got really great stuff and has good ingredients to work with.”
Priester comes from the Red Sox via trade. He has pitched in 21 big league games, including 15 starts. He is 6-9 with a 6.23 ERA.
