Brewers call up IF Caleb Durbin after sending Oliver Dunn to the minors

The Milwaukee Brewers have called up infielder Caleb Durbin

APRIL 18, 2025 • Associated Press

Officially called up The Brewers recalled Durbin from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Impact Durbin entered spring training as the favorite to start the season as Milwaukee's primary third baseman, but he ended up beginning the campaign in the minors. The 25-year-old hit well to start the season at Nashville with two homers, three steals and a .278/.316/.481 slash line in 13 games, and he's now primed to make his MLB debut for the Brewers. Following the demotion of Oliver Dunn on Thursday, Durbin is poised to receive regular playing time at the hot corner.

En route to Milwaukee The Brewers will recall Durbin from Triple-A Nashville on Friday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Brewers were left with a hole at third base after optioning Oliver Dunn to Nashville on Thursday, and it now appears that Durbin will take over as Milwaukee's primary starter at the hot corner once he officially joins the big-league club. The 25-year-old speedster has slashed .278/.316/.481 with two home runs, three RBI, 12 runs scored and three stolen bases through 58 plate appearances, and he's recorded a base hit in 11 of his 13 games. His first game in Milwaukee will mark his MLB debut.

Devin Williams saves first game with New York Yankees by a whisker

Devin Williams saved his first game with the New York Yankees by a whisker

Relegated to minors The Brewers optioned Durbin to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

Impact Durbin entered camp with a good chance to make the Opening Day roster and possibly win a regular starting job in the infield. He slashed .250/.322/.404 with two homers, seven RBI, 12 runs scored and seven stolen bases across 17 games, but the Brewers will opt to give the 25-year-old a few more reps in Triple-A before he makes his MLB debut. With Durbin now in the minors, the Brewers may turn to Oliver Dunn or Vinny Capra to start at the hot corner.

Roster spot might be secure Durbin's spot on the Brewers' Opening Day roster could now be secure after Andruw Monasterio was optioned to Triple-A Nashvillle, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Impact Though he's batted only .227 this spring, Durbin has popped a pair of home runs and also stolen four bases. That he's projected to make the Opening Day roster isn't a surprise, but it's still not clear how much playing time he'll receive. Durbin is in the running to be the team's primary third baseman, but Oliver Dunn and Vinny Capra have had great springs and are also in the mix.

In Thursday's lineup Durbin (forearm) will start at third base and bat eighth in Thursday's Cactus League game against the White Sox.

Impact Durbin has been sidelined for the past several days after getting hit in the forearm by a foul ball over the weekend, but a few days of rest now has him ready to return to game action. The 25-year-old has slashed .172/.273/.379 with two home runs and seven runs scored this spring, and Thursday will mark the fourth consecutive game he's started at third base rather than second.

Recovering from forearm injury Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that Durbin has been out of the Cactus League lineup since Saturday after the 25-year-old infielder was struck in the forearm by a foul ball over th...

Impact The Brewers aren't overly concerned about the injury, with Murphy noting that X-rays on Durbin's forearm returned negative. Durbin could have played in Tuesday's Cactus League game against the Cubs if needed, but the Brewers instead opted to take advantage of Wednesday's off day to give him some extra time to heal. If he's able to play Thursday against the White Sox, Durbin will look to build momentum in his bid to win a spot on the Opening Day roster. He's flashed power (two home runs) and speed (two stolen bases) through his first 10 games this spring, but he's hitting just .172.

Shines in spring game Durbin went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs and a stolen base in Monday's spring game.

Impact Durbin led off Monday's contest and socked his second long ball in four days on the second pitch he saw. Brice Turang figures to be Milwaukee's primary leadoff option against righties when the regular season gets underway, but he will likely hit lower in the order against southpaws, and Durbin -- who as things stand could open the campaign as the starting third baseman -- will be among the candidates to hit first those days.

Yankees get closer Devin Williams from Brewers for Nestor Cortes, Caleb Durbin

The New York Yankees have acquired All-Star closer Devin Williams from the Milwaukee Brewers for left-hander Nestor Cortes and infield prospect Caleb Durbin

DECEMBER 13, 2024 • Associated Press

Moving to Milwaukee The Brewers acquired Durbin and Nestor Cortes from the Yankees on Friday in exchange for Devin Williams, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Durbin was added to New York's 40-man roster in November in order to protect him from the Rule 5 Draft and was expected to have "a big, big role" in the majors next season, per manager Aaron Boone, but he's instead been shipped out to acquire an All-Star closer. The 24-year-old was one of the organizations top prospects and should have an immediate path to playing time in Milwaukee following the departure of shortstop Willy Adames. Durbin features a high-contact, low-power bat and had an .867 OPS with 10 homers and 29 stolen bases in 82 games at the Triple-A level in 2024.

DECEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Brought onto 40-man The Yankees selected Durbin to their 40-man roster Tuesday.

Impact Manager Aaron Boone said last week that Durbin would play "a big, big role" for the Yankees in 2025, so it isn't too surprising to see the 24-year-old receive a 40-man spot ahead of December's Rule 5 Draft. Durbin slashed .287/.396/.471 with 10 home runs and 60 RBI at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last season, and Boone's comments suggest he has a decent chance of making the Yankees' Opening Day roster.

Seen as integral piece next season Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that Durbin is "going to play a big, big role for us this upcoming season," Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

Impact Durbin, who turns 25 in February, batted .287/.396/.471 with 10 home runs, 29 stolen bases and a 37:47 K:BB this season with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He also boasts a .934 OPS with four homers and 23 steals in 21 games so far during Arizona Fall League play. Durbin has played every position other than first base and catcher, but he spent most of his time in 2024 at second base and could be a candidate to start there for the Yankees in 2025. While not yet on the 40-man roster, Durbin is a shoo-in to be added to it this offseason in order to be protected from the Rule 5 Draft.

Returns from IL, heads to Double-A Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre reinstated Durbin (hand) from its 60-day injured list Thursday and assigned him to Double-A Somerset.

Impact Durbin was slashing .299/.413/.458 with three home runs and 20 stolen bases in 46 games with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before he was shelved in late May with a right hand injury. He made one rehab appearance with Single-A Tampa last Wednesday before Scranton/Wilkes-Barre opted to activate him a day later. Though Durbin has technically been assigned to Somerset and has gone 2-for-14 at the dish over his four starts at Double-A, he's essentially continuing his rehab assignment. Look for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to bring Durbin back once he has more time to build up at-bats with Somerset.
