Jared Koenig - Likely to return over weekend The Brewers are expected to activate Koenig (elbow) from the 15-day injured list at some point during their weekend series with the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Koenig has been on the shelf since April 6 while recovering from an UCL sprain, but he's been on a rehab assignment at Triple-A Nashville since late May. He's been particularly effective over his last three appearances, turning in a 6:1 K:BB while giving up one run in 2.1 innings. His impending return from the IL will give the Brewers another left-handed option out of the bullpen.

Robert Gasser - Moving to bullpen temporarily Gasser will be available in relief for the Brewers for their upcoming weekend series versus the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Gasser owns a 4.50 ERA and 1.27 WHIP in six starts with Milwaukee this season, but he pitched well in his most recent two outings, covering a combined 11.2 innings and striking out 13 batters while yielding just two earned runs on six hits and three walks. However, with the Brewers getting Brandon Woodruff back from the injured list Monday to fill out their rotation, Gasser will have to settle for a relief role for the time being. The young left-hander shouldn't have to wait long for his next starting opportunity, however; after Thursday's off day, the Brewers will close out their pre-All-Star break schedule with 18 games in 17 days. Milwaukee will likely expand to a six-man rotation at some point during that stretch, and Gasser is expected to be the top choice to fill the open spot.

Brewers-Abner Uribe Crotch Chop Saga Finally Ends With Suspension The Milwaukee Brewers hurler will be suspended for Wednesday night's contest against the Cincinnati Reds.

Abner Uribe - Serving one-game ban Wednesday The Brewers announced that Uribe has dropped his appeal of a one-game suspension and will serve the ban during Wednesday's contest in Cincinnati, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact MLB initially handed Uribe the suspension May 29, after he was deemed to have taken part in an unsportsmanlike celebration during his relief appearance against the Cardinals three days earlier. Uribe had continued to pitch for Milwaukee while appealing the ban, but after he was used in relief in four of the past five days, Wednesday marked an opportune time for him to drop the appeal. He'll be available for the Brewers following Thursday's team off day.

Jake Bauers - Records first triple Bauers went 1-for-3 with an RBI triple and a walk in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Reds.

Impact After striking out in each of his first two plate appearances, Bauers came through with the game's first run, lacing a triple down the right-field line to drive in a runner. The three-bagger was his first of the season. The hit was a welcome sight for Bauers, who had been struggling at the plate entering Tuesday, batting just .161 with a 40.5 percent strikeout rate over his previous 10 games. The 30-year-old is now slashing .267/.373/.496 with 13 home runs, 12 doubles, 47 RBI, 43 runs scored and five stolen bases across 68 games.

Trevor Megill - Reaches double-digit saves Megill earned the save Tuesday against the Reds, tossing a scoreless ninth inning in Milwaukee's 2-0 victory.

Impact Megill was handed a two-run lead in the ninth and needed just 12 pitches to retire Cincinnati in order, securing his 10th save of the season. The right-hander has held opponents scoreless in 13 of his last 14 appearances while piling up 19 strikeouts during that stretch. After a shaky start to the year, Megill has steadily lowered his ratios and continues to look like a lockdown late-inning option for Milwaukee. He now owns a 3.72 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 38:8 K:BB across 29 innings this season.

Brandon Sproat - Fans career-high 10 in win Sproat (2-4) earned the win Tuesday against the Reds, allowing one hit while striking out 10 over six scoreless innings.

Impact Sproat turned in the best start of his young career, overpowering Cincinnati's lineup while carrying a no-hit bid into the sixth inning before Jose Trevino lined a single to center field. The right-hander threw 58 of his 80 pitches for strikes and generated an impressive 18 swing-and-misses. His 10 strikeouts set a new career high, and he continued to show improved command by extending his streak to five consecutive starts with two or fewer walks. Sproat now owns a 5.43 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 73:32 K:BB across 69.2 innings this season and is lined up for a rematch against the Reds in his next start, this time at home.
