The Brewers are heading to St. Louis for their first series against the Cardinals this season.
Through the first three weeks of the season, all of the teams in the NL Central have been competitive. There’s only a three-game gap between first and fifth place, which is tied for the smallest gap in the majors (the AL East also has a three-game gap). The first and fifth place teams will face off this weekend in St. Louis, as the Brewers travel to face the Cardinals. It wouldn’t take much for the Cardinals to close that gap this weekend, so the Brewers have to be ..read more

Kevin Herget also clears waivers, sent to Nashville
The Milwaukee Brewers have sent right-handed pitcher Tobias Myers back to Triple-A Nashville after one day with the big league squad. Fellow righty Kevin Herget also cleared waivers after being designated for assignment, and he’ll join Myers in Nashville.
Myers, who still has yet to make his MLB debut, is 1-1 with a 1.84 ERA and 19 strikeouts in three starts with the Sounds this season. He was called upon yesterday as an emergency arm in what was a bullpen game for the Brewers, but the Crew made it through the ..read more

Vladimir Gutierrez designated for assignment to make room on 40-man roster
The Brewers have selected right-hander Tobias Myers from Triple-A Nashville, optioning lefty Jared Koenig to make room on the active roster and designating Vladimir Gutierrez for assignment to create space on the 40-man roster.
Myers, 25, was a sixth-round pick by the Orioles in 2016. He signed with the Brewers in fall 2022 after bouncing around several organizations. Across 140 2⁄3 innings between Double-A Biloxi and Triple-A Nashville last season, Myers went 10-5 with a 4.93 ERA and 175 s ..read more

Wade Miley pitched only three innings after taking a ball off his knee in the first inning
Box Score

The first inning was one to forget. The Padres led off with back-to-back singles, then loaded the bases after Jake Bauers missed the catch on a sacrifice bunt. Manny Machado brought in the first r ..read more

Yelich has been out since leaving Friday’s game against the Orioles
The Milwaukee Brewers have placed outfielder Christian Yelich on the injured list with a low back strain, retroactive to April 13. To fill his roster spot, Milwaukee recalled utility man Owen Miller from Triple-A Nashville.
Yelich, 32, was enjoying a renaissance season prior to his injury, slugging five homers, driving in 11, stealing two bases, and hitting .333/.422/.744 across 11 games prior to his injury. What was once considered a day-to-day injury ultimately will shelf Yelich for a couple w ..read more
