INJURIES

Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio probably heading to injured list with hamstring issue

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio likely will head to the injured list after hurting his hamstring earlier this week
AUGUST 1, 2025 • Associated Press
Shipped to San Diego The Padres acquired Cortes (elbow), infielder Jorge Quintana and cash from the Brewers on Thursday in exchange for outfielder Brandon Lockridge, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic repor...
Impact Cortes had been on the Brewers' 60-day injured list due to a left elbow flexor strain, but he should be ready to rejoin the big leagues after completing a four-start rehab assignment and building up to 5.2 innings and 93 pitches in his most recent outing for Triple-A Nashville on July 24. However, with the Milwaukee rotation fully stocked at the big-league level and having viable starting arms on hand at the Triple-A level in right-handers Chad Patrick, Logan Henderson and Tobias Myers, Cortes was deemed an expendable piece. He'll have a better chance at earning a full-time rotation spot in San Diego, where he could step in to replace right-hander Randy Vasquez as the team's No. 5 starter. Both Vasquez and Cortes could be in danger of moving to the bullpen when Michael King (shoulder) returns from the injured list, however.

Traded to San Diego The Brewers traded Cortes (elbow) to the Padres on Thursday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
Impact Cortes is on the 60-day injured list due to a left elbow flexor strain and was gearing up for a return with the Brewers in August. However, if the Brewers had activated the southpaw, he would have expanded the starting rotation to a six-man or he have been used in long relief. He now joins a clustered starting rotation in San Diego, but it has been dealing with injuries.

Looks strong in latest rehab start Cortes (elbow) struck out nine and allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and one walk in 5.2 innings Thursday in his latest rehab start for Triple-A Nashville.
Impact Cortes built up to 93 pitches (65 pitches) in what was the fourth and likely final start of his rehab assignment. The veteran southpaw has pitched effectively between his three outings with Nashville and one with High-A Wisconsin, logging a 1.00 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 18:3 K:BB in 18 innings. Though Milwaukee currently has five healthy starters who are all pitching well at the moment, manager Pat Murphy could be compelled to expand the rotation to six to make room for Cortes, who made just two starts for the Brewers before landing on the injured list April 6 due to a left elbow flexor strain. For his part, Murphy told Sophia Minnaert of FanDuel Sports Network Wisconsin on Friday that the Brewers were still deciding on the next steps for Cortes, who could work in long relief if Milwaukee is unwilling to run a six-man rotation.

Nearing end of rehab assignment Cortes is scheduled to throw 90 pitches Thursday in what may be his final rehab start, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.
Impact Cortes has made three rehab appearances with High-A Wisconsin in which he has allowed just one earned run across 12.1 innings. In his most recent appearance July 18, he pitched 5.1 innings, which is the first time he made it through five during the rehab stint. Eyeing 90 pitches Thursday, he should be able to expand upon the prior outing.

Sharp in second rehab start Cortes (elbow) struck out two and allowed three hits and no walks over four scoreless innings in his rehab start Thursday with High-A Wisconsin.
Impact Since beginning his rehab assignment earlier this month, Cortes has pitched effectively over his two starts with Wisconsin and Triple-A Nashville, tossing seven scoreless frames with a 6:0 K:BB. He built up to 54 pitches (36 strikes) in Thursday's outing, and Cortes may need just one more outing in the minors to get stretched out a bit more before making his return from the 60-day injured list shortly after the All-Star break. Though the Brewers are flush with appealing rotation options, Cortes' strong track record as a starter with the Yankees over the last four seasons should be enough for him to reclaim a starting role with Milwaukee once he's activated. Cortes made just two appearances for the Brewers before being placed on the IL on April 6 due to a left elbow flexor strain.

JULY 9, 2025 • Associated Press
Continuing rehab stint Cortes (elbow) will continue his rehab assignment Thursday with High-A Wisconsin, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.
Impact The veteran left-hander covered three scoreless innings during his first rehab outing with Triple-A Nashville last week, and he'll attempt to build up to around the 65-pitch mark Thursday. Cortes is likely to make an additional rehab start before potentially rejoining Milwaukee's rotation shortly after the All-Star break.
