Will Smith’s

Reliever appeal of an eight-game suspension for using a foreign substance will be heard by Major League Baseball in St. Louis on Monday. The Brewers aren’t sure if a ruling will come down immediately. Whether the suspension is reduced or not, the Brewers will play shorthanded while Smith is absent. “We’re going to have to be flexible,” said manager

Counsell said he will decide whether it’s time to replace struggling right-hander (1-2, 7.36 earned run average) as his eighth-inning pitcher with games on the line. “We’ve kind of tossed around being open to more ways to get zeros up there,” he said. “We’ll be open to that. The best way to do it is just for the guys to pitch well. You’re still going to have to use everybody. He just needs to make pitches.”
