  • Brewers' Wade Miley: Requires Tommy John surgery

    Miley was diagnosed with a torn UCL in his left elbow Friday and will undergo Tommy John surgery, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The 37-year-old landed on the shelf with elbow swelling early in the week and had his initial MRI results come back inconclusive, but an in-person arthrogram revealed the worst-case scenario. It's a brutal development for the Brewers' rotation and Miley individually, who at this point plans to continue his career after recovering from the procedure.

  • Brewers' Joel Payamps: Pitches eighth inning Thursday

    Payamps pitched a scoreless eighth inning of Thursday's 7-5 win over the Pirates, giving up one hit and one walk en route to claiming his third hold of the season.

    Just one day after notching his fourth save of the season, Payamps moved to a setup role Thursday, with Trevor Megill coming on in the ninth inning to nab his first save. Brewers manager Pat Murphy hasn't clarified that Megill will be the team's top option for save chances moving forward, so Payamps could end finding himself as part of a committee at closer with Megill and perhaps Abner Uribe.

  • Brewers' Trevor Megill: Nabs first save

    Megill pitched a perfect ninth inning Thursday to notch his first save of the season in the Brewers' 7-5 win over the Pirates.

    Megill and Joel Payamps flipped roles from Wednesday's 3-2 win, when Megill pitched a clean eighth inning before Payamps pitched the ninth and collected the save. It's uncertain whom the Brewers will turn to for the next save opportunity, which tracks with manager Pat Murphy's comments from earlier in the season indicating that intended to "pass the Fireman's hat around" with the save chances once Devin Williams (back) got injured.

  • Brewers' Rhys Hoskins: Three hits, two RBI in win

    Hoskins went 3-for-5 in Thursday's win over the Pirates with a double, two RBI and a stolen base.

    Hoskins singled home William Contreras in his second at-bat to tie the game at 3-3 and later added an RBI double to give Milwaukee a one-run lead. The first baseman has recorded at least one RBI in four of his last six games, while Thursday marked his second three-hit effort of the season. With that said, he's still batting just .219 (16-for-73) in April with four homers and 13 RBI.

  • Brewers' William Contreras: Goes yard, scores three times

    Contreras went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, three runs scored and a stolen base while also drawing a walk in Thursday's win over the Pirates.

    Contreras launched a solo homer off Mitch Keller in the top of the first inning to give Milwaukee an early lead and came around to score the team's third run on a Rhys Hoskins single in the third. He then added a single in the fifth frame before going on to steal his second base of the season. The catcher scored three runs in the contest, a mark he's hit three times already this season, while also recording multiple hits for the second consecutive game. Contreras is batting .373 (31-for-83) in April with five homers, 20 RBI and 21 runs scored.

  • Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Allows season-high five runs

    Peralta did not factor into the decision against the Pirates on Thursday, allowing five runs on five hits and five walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out five.

    Peralta struggled with his command throughout the contest, allowing four of the first eight batters to reach base before going on to surrender a season-high five runs. The right-hander gave up three runs in the first inning alone and failed to make it through five frames for the first time this season. Peralta also recorded a season-low five strikeouts on the afternoon after recording at least seven in each of his first five starts to open the campaign.

  • Brewers' Bryan Hudson: Earns second win

    Hudson (2-0) earned the win Wednesday over the Pirates, allowing one hit over 1.2 scoreless innings. He struck out one.

    Hudson has now earned wins in his last two appearances as he continues to impress early in the year. The left-hander has allowed just one run over 13.1 innings while posting an impressive 0.60 WHIP and 13:2 K:BB. Hudson made six appearances with the Dodgers last season, working to a 7.27 ERA over 8.2 innings.

  • Brewers' Joey Ortiz: Not in Thursday's lineup

    Ortiz is out of the lineup for Thursday's game in Pittsburgh.

    He started the last four games at third base but will give way to Oliver Dunn for Thursday's tilt. Ortiz has been struggling at the plate lately, going 1-for-13 across his last seven contests, though he does have a 3:3 K:BB over that span.

  • Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Getting breather Thursday

    Chourio is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Pittsburgh.

    Chourio is 1-for-12 with eight strikeouts over his last four games, so he'll get a breather as the Brewers and Pirates wrap up their series with a day game after a night game. Joey Wiemer will pick up a start in the outfield in Chourio's stead.

  • Brewers' Tobias Myers: Getting another start

    Myers is slated to start Sunday's game against the Yankees at American Family Field, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

    With Wade Miley (elbow), DL Hall (knee) and Jakob Junis (shoulder) all still on the injured list without clear timelines to return, Myers will end up sticking around for a second turn through the Milwaukee rotation. The 25-year-old had been a standout performer for Triple-A Nashville prior to getting called up this week and held his own in his MLB debut Tuesday, taking the loss despite limiting the Pirates to one run on four hits and one walk over five innings.

  • Brewers' Joel Payamps: Grabs fourth save

    Payamps recorded the save in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Pirates, striking out two in a scoreless ninth inning.

    The Pirates made things interesting in the ninth, getting the tying and go-ahead runs on base on a pair of Milwaukee errors. However, Payamps got Jared Triolo to fly out before striking out Andrew McCutchen to seal the 3-2 victory, notching his fourth save of the year. The 30-year-old Payamps has three saves in his last four outings as he lowered his ERA to 3.72 with a 0.62 WHIP and 9:1 K:BB through 9.2 innings. Payamps appears to be the current favorite for saves but is hardly locked in as Milwaukee's closer, with Abner Uribe and Trevor Megill also in the mix.

  • Brewers' Christian Yelich: Resumes on-field work

    Yelich (back) was spotted running on the field prior to Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Pirates, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    While Yelich's ability to take part in some form of on-field activity is a positive sign as he works his way back from a lower-back strain, he has yet to resume swinging a bat or playing catch since landing on the 10-day injured list on April 16. The Brewers haven't set a firm target date for Yelich's return to the lineup, but at the very least, he doesn't look as though he'll be ready to come off the IL when first eligible this weekend.

  • Brewers' Wade Miley: MRI results inconclusive

    Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Wednesday that an MRI on Miley's left elbow was inconclusive, prompting the Brewers to send the left-hander to Cincinnati for an in-person arthogram, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Miley was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday due to left elbow inflammation, but the Brewers apparently still have some concern that the southpaw may be dealing with some ligament damage. The arthogram should offer more clarity on the matter, while also helping the Brewers in deciding a treatment plan for Miley's injury. Tobias Myers was called up from Triple-A Nashville on Monday and ended up taking Miley's spot in the rotation Tuesday in Pittsburgh.

  • Brewers' Jake Bauers: On bench again Wednesday

    Bauers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

    Bauers was on the bench for Tuesday's 2-1 loss while Pittsburgh brought left-hander Bailey Falter to the hill, and the lefty-hitting first baseman will remain in a reserve role Wednesday while southpaw Josh Fleming opens the contest for the Bucs. Owen Miller will draw the start at first base in place of Bauers.

  • Brewers' Bryse Wilson: Set to open Wednesday's game

    Wilson is slated to serve as the Brewers' opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Pirates, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

    Wilson will take the hill for his second start in his last three appearances, with his most recent outing coming in relief Saturday, when he tossed 1.1 innings against the Cardinals en route to scooping up a win. Since he'll be taking the hill Wednesday on three days' rest and hasn't recorded more than 11 outs in any of his seven appearances on the season, Wilson likely won't reach the five innings he'll need to hit to qualify for a win. The Brewers aren't expected to have a designated bulk reliever work behind Wilson, but unless the team calls up another pitcher from the minors prior to Wednesday's contest, Bryan Hudson -- who tossed 2.1 scoreless innings in his last appearance Sunday -- represents the most logical option to fill multiple innings once Wilson exits the game, if needed.

  • Brewers' Ryan Birchard: Lands on Single-A injured list

    Single-A Carolina placed Birchard on its 7-day injured list Tuesday with an unspecified injury.

    Birchard, the No. 155 overall pick of the 2023 First-Year Player Draft, made his professional debut for Carolina on April 6, tossing four innings and striking out six while allowing one unearned run on one hit and two walks. He hasn't pitched in the two weeks since that outing, however, and the injury explains why he's been held out of action.
