Houser (groin) allowed two runs over three innings of work with a walk and five strikeouts in a rehab appearance for Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Houser threw 59 pitches, with 37 of them landing for strikes. It's the second rehab appearance for the right-hander as he works his way back from groin tightness that has sidelined him for the beginning of the 2023 campaign. Assuming a positive report following the outing, there's a good chance Houser joins the Brewers as a multi-inning relief option by the end of the week.
