One of the players who entered spring in a critical position was Adrian Houser. With his three option years gone, he was facing a position where he would have to make the roster or be exposed to waivers. Some of that stress has been lifted now. Today, Adam McCalvy reported that the Brewers have been granted a fourth option year for Adrian Houser, allowing him to be sent to and from the minors for one more year.
All major league players on the 40-man roster are given three option years in their MLB careers.
