Hader struck out one but gave up a game-winning home run to Marwin Gonzalez in the eighth inning of Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Drew Pomeranz opened the eighth by putting two ducks on the pond, and he got stuck with the loss when Hader allowed those inherited runners to score. It's still the fifth blown save of the season for the Brewers' closer, and three of them have come in his last four chances. With Hader struggling and Milwaukee fighting for an NL Central crown, Matt Albers could continue to work his way into the ninth-inning mix.

Hader (2-5) struck out four and picked up the win after blowing his fourth save of the season Friday, allowing one run on one hit and one walk in 1.2 innings in a 6-5 victory over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty served up a solo shot to Elvis Andrus in the top of the ninth inning to squander a 5-4 lead but then got the win when Eric Thames responded with a walkoff blast in the bottom of the frame. Hader now has 25 saves in 29 chances this season with a 2.77 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 102:15 K:BB through 55.1 innings -- the second straight season he's topped 100 strikeouts.

Hader allowed a run on two hits but struck out two over 1.1 innings against the Pirates on Monday en route to the save.

EDGE Analysis

One of his three blown saves this season came against the Pirates, but he had enough insurance to avoid that Monday. With a 1-5 record and 2.68 ERA, Hader isn't the most stellar closer in those categories, but he does have 25 saves, a 0.78 WHIP and 98 strikeouts in 53.2 innings. He has 10 strikeouts in his last six frames.

Hader (1-5) took the loss and was hit with the blown save against the Athletics on Thursday, recording one out while giving up two earned runs on one hit in the Brewers' 5-3 defeat. He walked one and didn't record a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

Tasked with protecting a one-run lead, Hader served up a go-ahead two-run blast to Matt Chapman, saddling him with his fifth loss of the season along with his third blown save. It was Hader's second loss in his last three appearances, so he's hit a bit of a rough patch, but he still has great numbers overall with a 2.58 ERA, a 0.76 WHIP and a 96:14 K:BB over 52.1 innings.

Hader picked up the save Wednesday against the A's after tossing a scoreless inning while allowing one hit.

EDGE Analysis

With two outs, the A's got the tying run to the plate following a single by Jurickson Profar, but Hader managed to shut the door by causing Marcus Semien to ground out. It was a nice bounce back from Tuesday, when the 25-year-old took the loss against Oakland after surrendering a walkoff home run. Through 40 appearances this season, Hader owns a 2.25 ERA, 0.73 WHIP and 96:13 K:BB with 24 saves.

Hader (1-4) took the loss against Oakland on Tuesday, retiring one batter on a strikeout before giving up a walkoff home run.

EDGE Analysis

Hader was summoned in the 10th inning with the score tied 2-2 and struck out Matt Chapman to begin the frame before serving up a game-ending homer to Matt Olson. Though he has improved upon most of last season's dominant numbers by compiling a 2.29 ERA. 0.73 WHIP and 16.9 K/9 with 23 saves, Hader was been more susceptible to the long ball this year, giving up 10 in 51 innings to eclipse the nine he surrendered in 81.1 frames in 2018.

Hader allowed one hit and struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning Friday to record his 23rd save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

The left-hander is locked in at the moment, posting a 0.00 ERA and 13:0 K:BB over his last five appearances and 5.2 innings, picking up three saves and two holds along the way. Hader's numbers on the season have been even better than his breakout 2018, and he remains arguably the most valuable relief pitcher in the game.

Hader gave up one hit while striking out two batters in a scoreless inning against Arizona on Sunday to earn his 22nd save.

EDGE Analysis

Hader entered in the ninth inning staked to a three-run lead and made easy work of the Diamondbacks, striking out two and allowing only a harmless single. The scoreless outing was a welcome sight after Hader allowed two runs in three of his previous five appearances. Despite the recent struggles, the flamethrowing lefty has continued to cement his name atop of the list of the most dominant relievers in baseball this season, compiling a 2.27 ERA, 0.71 WHIP and 16.6 K/9 while converting 22 of 24 save opportunities.

Hader allowed two unearned runs on three hits and zero walks while striking out two during the ninth inning in his 21st save of the season to finish a 5-4 victory against the Braves on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The game should have finished two batters earlier, but Brewers catcher Manny Pina committed a throwing error after a dropped third strike. That led to two runners scoring against Hader in the frame. Because of the blunder, though, Hader picked up an extra strikeout, and he still posted his 21st save. He is 21-for-23 in save chances with a 2.35 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 84 strikeouts in 46 innings this season.

Hader blew his second save of the season in Friday's 10-7 extra-inning loss to the Giants, giving up two runs on two home runs over two innings while striking out three.

EDGE Analysis

Entering the game in the eighth inning to protect a 5-4 lead, Hader served up a pinch-hit solo shot to Tyler Austin and another homer to Brandon Crawford in the ninth to put the Brewers behind, only for Christian Yelich to bail the Milwaukee closer out in the bottom of the ninth with a triple and eventual tying run off Will Smith. Hader was dealing with back stiffness prior to the All-Star break that cost him a chance to appear in the Midsummer Classic, and his first appearance after the break suggests he may not be 100 percent yet.
