The Brewers designated Scahill for assignment Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

With the Brewers set to play six games in five days, the team dropped Scahill from the 40-man roster to open up a spot for a sixth starter in Brandon Woodruff, who will make his MLB debut in Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Cardinals. Scahill surrendered one of the 10 runs the Brewers bullpen yielded in Sunday's blowout loss to the Diamondbacks, bringing his ERA up to 3.57 over 17.2 innings with the big club. The Brewers are hoping to stash the 30-year-old at Triple-A Colorado Springs if he passes through waivers unclaimed.
