Impact Ortiz sat out the Brewers' final two regular-season contests to recover from an assortment of injuries, and after also getting extra time to heal thanks to a first-round bye, he is on the NLDS roster and in the lineup to begin Milwaukee's postseason run.

Will be ready for NLDS Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Friday that Ortiz (knee/abdomen) is "progressing in the right direction" and expected to be on the NLDS roster, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Ortiz was banged up down the stretch of the regular season, nursing knee, abdominal and groin issues. It's a fair assumption that the infielder isn't 100 percent, but he's doing well enough to strap it on for the NLDS. Ortiz should be the Brewers' primary third baseman during the postseason as long as he holds up physically.

Impact Ortiz appeared to tweak something while legging out an infield single in the second inning and was eventually taken out of the game in the eighth. The Brewers will likely provide an update on his status after the game once they take a closer look at him, but he could sit out the team's final two regular-season games as a precaution to keep him as healthy as possible for the postseason.
