GAME LOG
Sal Frelick - Taking seat Wednesday Frelick is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.
Impact With the exception of right fielder Garrett Mitchell, the Brewers will send out an all-right-handed-hitting lineup against Cubs southpaw Justin Steele, with Frelick and fellow lefty-hitting regular Brice Turang heading to the bench. Blake Perkins will take Frelick's spot in the outfield, covering center field while batting ninth.

Brice Turang - Sitting against southpaw Turang is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.
Impact The lefty-hitting Turang will hit the bench for the Brewers' second straight matchup with a left-hander, as he previously sat against Nationals southpaw Mitchell Parker on July 13. Andruw Monasterio will get the nod at the keystone and could continue to occupy the short side of a platoon with Turang moving forward.
JULY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Rob Zastryzny - Slated to open Wednesday's game Zastryzny will serve as the Brewers' opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact Zastryzny will receive his third opener assignment of the season. He hasn't recorded more than two outs in any of his 36 appearances between the majors and Triple-A Louisville this season and likely won't be asked to work more than one inning Wednesday. Jakob Junis and Bryse Wilson are candidates to cover multiple innings out of the bullpen once Zastryzny exits the contest.

Gary Sánchez - Returns from IL The Brewers activated Sanchez (calf) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday.
Impact Sanchez missed the previous month of action with a strained left calf. The Brewers will carry three catchers for the time being, which will give the team the option of using Sanchez, William Contreras or Eric Haase at designated hitter on days they're not catching.
JULY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Christian Yelich - Lands on IL with back inflammation The Brewers placed Yelich on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with low-back inflammation.
Impact Yelich was removed from Tuesday's win over the Cubs when his back flared up on him. It's been a nagging issue for Yelich off and on for the last few years, and he will visit with a specialist the coming days, per Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Yelich isn't sure how long he might be sidelined, but his tone Wednesday seemed ominous, as he discussed "a couple different discussions I think that need to be had." Gary Sanchez returned from the 10-day IL to take Yelich's roster spot and will be one of the candidates to fill in for him at designated hitter.

Garrett Mitchell - Registers steal in win Mitchell went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Cubs.
Impact Mitchell is 5-for-14 over four games since the All-Star break, though he's also struck out five times in that span. The outfielder's steal Tuesday was his second of the campaign. He's batting .250 with a .762 OPS, one home run, three doubles, four RBI and four runs scored over 14 contests this year after missing most of the first half with a fractured finger.

Brice Turang - Drives in lone run in win Turang went 1-for-2 with a walk, one RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Cubs.
Impact Offense was at a premium Tuesday, and Turang's RBI single in the eighth inning was the lone run of the game. The second baseman has gone just 2-for-18 with four RBI over four contests since the All-Star break. He's gone 14 games without a multi-hit effort, but he's enough of a speed threat to stay atop the order even when he's not hitting at his best. For the year, Turang has 31 steals, six home runs, 42 RBI, 47 runs scored and a .268/.332/.376 slash line over 97 contests.
JULY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Trevor Megill - Converts 20th save Megill allowed a hit and struck out one in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Cubs.
Impact Pitching for the third time in four days, Megill was able to work around a leadoff single to pick up his 20th save of the campaign. The right-hander has allowed multiple runs in two of his last four outings, though those struggles are yet to cost him his share of the high-leverage duties. He's at a 2.41 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 40:8 K:BB through 33.2 innings this season. Devin Williams (back) is going through a rehab assignment at Triple-A Nashville, so Megill's run as the Brewers' closer could be nearing an end, though he's pitched well enough to potentially make this a committee situation if Williams needs to be eased in after a lengthy absence.

Colin Rea - Throws five shutout innings Rea allowed four hits and two walks while striking out eight over five shutout innings in a no-decision versus the Cubs on Tuesday.
Impact Rea returned to a starting role after pitching behind an opener in his last outing before the All-Star break. The right-hander was generally good Tuesday, though he needed 93 pitches (58 strikes) to complete his five frames in a pitching duel against Jameson Taillon. Rea has allowed two runs or fewer in three of his four outings in July, though he also gave up seven runs July 9 versus the Pirates. For the year, he has a 3.60 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 84:33 K:BB over 110 innings through 20 appearances (17 starts). His next outing is projected to be at home versus Atlanta.

Brice Turang's RBI grounder in the eighth gives the Brewers a 1-0 win over the Cubs

Brice Turang drove in the only run with a grounder in the eighth inning to spoil a superb start by Chicago’s Jameson Taillon, and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Cubs 1-0

Christian Yelich - Dealing with back tightness Yelich was removed from Tuesday's game against the Cubs due to back tightness, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact The 32-year-old outfielder had gone 0-for-1 with two walks before Rhys Hoskins pinch hit for him in the eighth inning. Back injuries have been a recurring issue for Yelich in recent seasons, and he spent nearly a month on the injured list earlier in the season due to a lower-back strain. The severity of his latest injury remains unknown, though the team may offer more details ahead of Wednesday's contest.

Cubs vs. Brewers Prediction, Odds, Picks - July 24
Gary Sánchez - Expected back Wednesday Manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that Sanchez (calf) is expected to return from the injured list Wednesday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact A left calf strain forced Sanchez onto the IL in late June, and he has since gone 1-for-6 with a walk through two rehab games at Triple-A Nashville. Once activated, the 31-year-old backstop will presumably reclaim his role as Milwaukee's backup catcher, replacing Eric Haase.
JULY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Rhys Hoskins - Idle Tuesday Hoskins isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs.
Impact Hoskins will get a day to regroup after going 2-for-11 with a home run in three games since the All-Star break. In his place, Jake Bauers will start at first base and bat seventh.
