Suter (2-0) earned the win in Wednesday's 11-6 win over the Reds. He allowed one walk over one scoreless inning.
Suter has been excellent for the Rockies this season. The veteran left-hander has allowed just one run in his last 17.1 innings (12 appearances), lowering his ERA to 0.98 with a 0.98 WHIP and 26:10 K:BB. While Suter hasn't received a save opportunity this year, he could eventually work his way into the picture if Pierce Johnson or Daniel Bard struggle.

Rockies' Brent Suter: Pitching well with new club
Rotowire
Suter has allowed two earned runs on seven hits and five walks while striking out 10 across his first 11.2 innings with the Rockies.
Suter has worked primarily in a multi-inning role, as he's recorded at least four outs in six of his seven appearances. He's pitched in relatively low-leverage situations -- early in the game and without the lead -- so he won't be a source of saves and may not even be in the position to accrue many holds.

Rockies' Brent Suter: Avoids arbitration with new deal
Rotowire
Suter agreed to terms with Colorado on Friday, signing a one-year, $3 million contract to avoid arbitration, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Suter played his seventh MLB campaign for the Brewers last season, pitching in 54 games as a reliever and posting a 3.78 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 53:22 K:BB over 66.2 innings. He was claimed off waivers by the Rockies on Friday and quickly agreed to terms with the club for the 2023 campaign. Given Colorado's bullpen woes last year, Suter should begin next season in a high-leverage role, possibly as the primary setup man ahead of closer Daniel Bard.

Rockies' Brent Suter: Claimed by Rockies
Rotowire
Suter was claimed off waivers by the Rockies on Friday.
Suter got off to a rough start last season, posting a 4.58 ERA ahead of the All-Star break, but a 2.87 ERA and 1.05 WHIP during the second half of the season showed that the 33-year-old lefty was still a viable option out of the 'pen. He could be an arm that Colorado relies on often in 2023 as the team looks to improve on a 2022 campaign in which they ranked last in bullpen ERA (4.85).

Suter faced only one batter in Tuesday's contest, but he struck him out and helped the Brewers maintain a lead they would not relinquish.

Rotowire
Suter left Friday's game against the Cardinals after colliding with the dugout railing, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

Brewers' Brent Suter: Excluded from NLDS roster
Rotowire
Suter was not included on Milwaukee's NLDS roster against Atlanta, JR Radcliffe of reports.
This move comes as a bit of a surprise, considering Suter appeared in 61 games this season and posted a 3.07 ERA as a key member of the bullpen. That said, he did suffer eight blown saves in 2021 and had a pedestrian 4.30 ERA in his last 14 appearances. As a soft-throwing lefty, Suter might have faced some difficult matchups against Atlanta's righty-heavy, power-hitting lineup.

Brewers' Brent Suter: Snags 12th win
Rotowire
Suter (12-5) struck out two in a perfect inning, earning the win Sunday versus Pittsburgh.
The southpaw worked the fifth inning after Eric Lauer lasted only four frames in his return from the COVID-19 injured list. Suter kept Pittsburgh off the bases, and Milwaukee held onto a narrow 2-1 lead to the end of the game. As a multi-inning reliever, Suter has been particularly effective at snagging wins this year. He's added a save, six holds and seven blown saves while posting a 2.81 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 57:18 K:BB through 57.2 innings.

Brewers' Brent Suter: Notches first career save
Rotowire
Suter picked up his first career save in Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Cubs.
With Josh Hader (COVID-19) out of action and both Devin Williams and Brad Boxberger pitching in the first game of the twin bill, manager Craig Counsell turned to Suter for the final four outs of the nightcap and the southpaw delivered. Fantasy players should not count on Suter tallying more than another save or two, but he is still providing value elsewhere, allowing just one earned run in 15.1 innings (0.59 ERA) while racking up three wins and posting a 1.04 WHIP over his last 12 trips to the mound.
