Stephenson walked five Brewers in his three innings of work Monday, also giving up two hits to lead to five runs (four earned).
That notion that Stephenson might get a last-ditch call to the Opening Day rotation has to be scuttled after this outing. "I think the situation just got the best of me," Stephenson said. "I let the game speed up on me. I was rushing and couldn't slow myself down. That led to me just missing arm-side up and away over and over."
