LIVE: Brewers vs. Diamondbacks | 02/26/2025 Listen LIVE as the Milwaukee Brewers take on the Arizona Diamondbacks in Scottsdale, AZ
Kyle Nelson - Falters in spring debut Nelson (shoulder) retired two batters and was charged with two earned runs on three hits while striking out one in Tuesday's 4-2 Cactus League loss to the Cubs.
Impact Making his spring debut after he had been sidelined since last April while he recovered from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery, Nelson perhaps unsurprisingly struggled with his command. He served up home runs to two of the five batters he faced and was charged with a blown save after giving up a 2-0 lead in the fifth inning. The southpaw possesses a spot on the Diamondbacks' 40-man roster, but since he has two minor-league options remaining, he could open the season at Triple-A Reno if the organization determines he needs more time to knock off some rust coming out of the spring.

Owen Caissie - Optioned to Triple-A The Cubs optioned Caissie (groin) to Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday, Jared Wyllys of AllCHGO.com reports.
Impact The club also reassigned Brett Bateman (hand), Brandon Birdsell (lat) and Antonio Santos to minor-league camp. Caissie underwent core muscle surgery over the offseason and has been slowed in camp by a groin injury, which may or may not be related to the operation. It's not clear when Caissie might be ready to play in games, but he'll begin the year with Iowa.

Bryce Jarvis - Cleared for spring debut Jarvis (elbow) is expected to make his Cactus League debut in Wednesday's game against the Brewers, Alex D'Agostino of SI.com reports.
Impact Jarvis didn't make any appearances after July 30 of last season while recovering from an elbow sprain, but the 27-year-old righty doesn't seem to be too far behind the Diamondbacks' other relievers in spring training. He'll be competing for a multi-inning role out of the bullpen during camp after he turned in a 3.19 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 38:33 K:BB across 59.1 frames before spending the final two months of the 2024 campaign on the shelf.

Drey Jameson - Making spring debut Wednesday Jameson (elbow) is scheduled to make his Cactus League debut in Wednesday's game against the Brewers, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
Impact Once starter Corbin Burnes exits the contest, Jameson is on track to make what will be his first appearance at any level since July 6, 2023 after he missed the last season and a half while recovering from Tommy John surgery, which he underwent in September of that year. Jameson progressed to throwing bullpen sessions by the end of last season, and his lengthy rehab program appears to have gone without any snags over the winter and during the early part of spring training. The 27-year-old is in contention for a spot in the Diamondbacks' Opening Day bullpen, but because he has two minor-league options remaining, an assignment to Triple-A Reno could be in the cards if he isn't sharp during his Cactus League appearances.
