EDGE Analysis

Petricka was designated for assignment by the Brewers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Petricka has a 3.38 ERA in eight innings this season, but that number isn't in line with his 3:6 K:BB. He'll be removed from the 40-man roster to make room for Gio Gonzalez.

Petricka was recalled as expected Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Petricka has already spent two separate stints on the big-league roster. As a reliever with options, expect him to continue to bounce between Milwaukee and Triple-A San Antonio throughout the season. Junior Guerra was placed on the bereavement list in a corresponding move.

Petricka is expected to rejoin the Brewers' bullpen Monday, Robert Murray of The Athletic reports.

Petricka was optioned to Triple-A San Antonio on Friday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Petricka was up for just two days while Alex Wilson was on the paternity list. He pitched two scoreless innings during his latest stay with the big-league squad, bringing his ERA down to 4.50 on the season. With Wilson back with the team, Petricka heads back to the minors to wait for his next opportunity.

Petricka was recalled from Low-A Wisconsin on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Petricka will rejoin the big-league bullpen for the time being with Alex Wilson (personal) heading to the paternity list in a corresponding move. The 30-year-old allowed two runs in two innings before being demoted to Low-A earlier in the season, so he'll likely be limited to low-leverage work during his second stint with the big club.

Petricka was optioned to Low-A Wisconsin on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Petricka allowed two runs and walked four over two innings for the Brewers out of the bullpen so far this season, and they've likely sent him to Low-A for proximity reasons. In a corresponding move, Aaron Wilkerson was recalled from Triple-A San Antonio.

Petricka was called up from Triple-A San Antonio on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Petricka was sent to Triple-A at the end of spring training but makes his way back to the majors with the Brewers in need of a fresh bullpen arm. The 30-year-old had a 4.53 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 41:16 K:BB in 41 appearances with the Blue Jays in 2018.

Petricka was optioned to Triple-A San Antonio on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Petricka posted a solid 3.27 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 13:6 K:BB through 11 Cactus League frames, but it wasn't enough for the right-hander to secure a spot in Milwaukee's Opening Day bullpen. The 30-year-old owns a career 3.98 ERA across parts of five big-league seasons (223.2 innings), so he should be one of the first arms called upon when a fresh reliever is needed at the major-league level.
