Outlook Shane Drohan
Shane Drohan’s Versatility and Spot Start Potential Give First-Place Brewers a Massive Boost
Shane Drohan has been outstanding out of the bullpen lately, pitching to a stellar 3.07 ERA and 1.07 WHIP with 24 strikeouts over his last 20.5 innings. He currently slots in as the primary long reliever for the first-place Brewers (41-25). With Milwaukee's pitching staff heavily depleted by injuries to key arms like DL Hall and Brandon Woodruff, Drohan's versatility has become indispensable to the team's success.
Comparing his hot streak to our projections, some regression could be on the horizon as our models forecast a 4.24 ERA and 1.35 WHIP. Still, his career 3.27 ERA and 1.17 WHIP suggest he is fully capable of maintaining respectable ratios. His high strikeout upside, highlighted by a 10.54 K/9 over the last 30 days, makes him much more than just a standard middle-relief option.
Looking at the remaining matchups, Drohan is scheduled to make a spot start on June 13 at home against the Phillies and Aaron Nola, who is struggling with a 5.86 ERA. Our weekly projection expects 4.1 innings of work with a sharp 2.81 ERA and 3.3 strikeouts. Due to this favorable matchup and his potential to log bulk frames, he is a fantastic option to plug into lineups. Verdict: Stream.

Outlook Sean Burke
Sean Burke remains a strikeout force for the division-leading White Sox ahead of a challenging date with the Dodgers
Burke has experienced some turbulence lately, posting a 6.59 ERA and 1.95 WHIP over his last 4.1 innings, though he still managed seven strikeouts in that span. He continues to serve as the staff anchor for the first-place White Sox, who hold a 36-31 record in the AL Central despite dealing with multiple pitching injuries and shortstop Colson Montgomery’s back tightness.
Under the hood, Burke's 3.98 ERA and 1.21 WHIP across 13 starts this season represent a solid step forward from his 4.41 ERA in 2025. While his walk rate has ticked up slightly over the last month, his improved WHIP and 8.89 K/9 rate over 67.8 innings indicate his rotation growth is sustainable. Expect some slight regression over the long haul, but his ability to miss bats keeps his floor relatively safe.
Looking at the remainder of the week, Burke is scheduled for a single home start on Friday against the Dodgers and Roki Sasaki. While facing a powerhouse lineup is a tough test, our data expects a sharp outing with a 2.99 ERA and a 0.97 WHIP over 7.0 projected innings. Despite the challenging opponent, his strikeout upside makes him a viable Start.
