Sharp against Toronto
Sproat did not factor into the decision Thursday against the Blue Jays, allowing one run on four hits and one walk while striking out six over 6.2 innings.
Analyse
Sproat delivered a much-needed performance after a shaky start to the season, working efficiently and coming within one out of completing seven innings. The right-hander's only run allowed came in the third inning on a sacrifice bunt following back-to-back hits. However, Milwaukee's offense managed just one run of support, forcing Sproat to settle for a no-decision despite the strong outing. His season numbers remain rough, as he still holds a 6.88 ERA, 1.71 WHIP and a 16:11 K:BB across 17 innings. The 25-year-old will look to replicate Thursday's success in his next outing, scheduled against Detroit.

Rejoining rotation Thursday
Sproat (knee) will start against the Blue Jays on Thursday, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.
Analyse
The right-hander picked up a knee injury during his relief outing Saturday against Washington, which was his best showing of the campaign with one run allowed on four hits and three walks over 3.2 innings, but he checked out fine when evaluated Sunday. Sproat will re-enter the rotation Thursday and will likely need another decent showing to solidify his place in Milwaukee's starting five.

Knee checks out okay
Sproat underwent an examination on his right knee that came back clean Sunday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analyse
Sproat landed awkwardly on his right knee on a diving attempt to field a grounder hit by Nationals second baseman Nasim Nunez in the top of the seventh inning Saturday, but he appears to have avoided a long-term injury. The right-hander entered the contest out of the bullpen, delivering 3.2 innings of one-run ball while allowing four hits and three walks. It's unclear if Sproat's next outing will come as a starter or out of the pen again, but the fact that he's healthy is good news.

May have knee injury
Sproat is getting his knee examined following his relief appearance Saturday versus the Nationals, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. In the outing, he tossed 3.2 innings and allowed one run on four hits and three walks while striking out three batters.
Analyse
Sproat was pretty wild Saturday, tossing just 38 of 65 pitches for strikes and issuing three free passes. However, he escaped with only one run his ledger. The right-hander entered in the sixth frame after starting his first game of the campaign and working as an opener in his second. It's not clear how or when the potential knee issue cropped up, but both Sproat and Saturday's starter Kyle Harrison were slated for knee exams following the loss, according to manager Pat Murphy. Results of those tests should provide clarity about whether either hurler is in danger of missing time.
