Sitting again Monday Hamilton is not in the Brewers' starting lineup against the Giants on Monday.

Impact Hamilton will be out of the lineup for a second consecutive game while Joey Ortiz starts at third base and bats ninth. Hamilton has gone 1-for-7 with one steal and three strikeouts in his two games since returning from the 10-day injured list due to a left hamstring strain.

Taking seat against southpaw Hamilton is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Impact After making his return from the injured list Friday, the left-handed-hitting Hamilton was included in the lineup at third base for both of the first two games of the series when the Brewers faced right-handed starters, going 1-for-7 with a stolen base between the contests. Hamilton will head to the bench Sunday while southpaw Kyle Freeland toes the rubber for Colorado, but he still could be in store for something closer to a part-time role versus righties while Joey Ortiz has made a case for earning more opportunities at the hot corner. Since the start of July, Ortiz has produced a .921 OPS over 20 games.

Brewers activate David Hamilton from injured list and designate Braden Shewmake for assignment

Milwaukee Brewers infielder David Hamilton has come off the injured list after recovering from a left hamstring strain

Impact After completing a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville, Hamilton's 17-day stint on the IL comes to an end. Before being placed on the injured list on July 7, the 28-year-old slashed .240/.317/.333 with three homers and 15 RBI in 237 plate appearances. Milwaukee designated Braden Shewmake for assignment to make room for Hamilton on the active roster.

Sent out on rehab assignment Hamilton (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Hamilton has missed the last two weeks of action with a left hamstring strain but has been cleared to test things out in games. If all goes well, the speedy infielder could return for the start of the Brewers' road trip early next week. Joey Ortiz has posted a 1.013 OPS with three home runs in 11 games since Hamilton was hurt, so Hamilton could operate in more of a reserve role when he returns if the Brewers want to play the hot hand at third base.
