Returning to Triple-A The Brewers optioned Black to Triple-A Nashville on Monday.

Impact Milwaukee promoted Black from Nashville on Friday after Blake Perkins and Isaac Collins were placed on the bereavement list and paternity list, respectively, but the 25-year-old will head back to the minors with both players having since rejoined the Brewers. During his brief stay with the big club, Black didn't make a start but appeared in two of the Brewers' three games in Cincinnati over the weekend, going 0-for-2 with three walks.

Called up Friday The Brewers recalled Black from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Impact The 26-year-old was up with the Brewers for a few days in late July and went 2-for-6 with two walks, a double, an RBI and a run in three games. Black will rejoin the big club ahead of the three-game set this weekend in Cincinnati, and he should have a path to playing time with Blake Perkins (bereavement) and Isaac Collins (paternity) away from the team.

JULY 26 • Associated Press

Returns to minors Milwaukee optioned Black to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

Impact Black had been called up from Nashville on Sunday and got into three games with the Brewers (though he made only one start), going went 2-for-6 with a double and an RBI. His return to the minors Saturday makes room on the 26-man roster for the return of Sal Frelick (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list.

Called up Sunday The Brewers called up Black from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.

Impact Black began the season in the minors, then fractured the hamate bone in his right hand in late March and missed over six weeks of action. He's largely struggled in 24 contests with Nashville, posting a .191/.301/.303 slash line, but has produced five stolen bases, two homers and 17 RBI. Black's big-league opportunity comes as a result of Jake Bauers landing on the 10-day IL on Sunday due to a shoulder injury.

Makes season debut at Triple-A Black (hand) was reinstated from Triple-A Nashville's 7-day injured list Wednesday and went 0-for-3 with a walk and an RBI while playing eight innings in left field in a 5-2 loss t...

Impact Black was cleared to make his 2025 debut for the Triple-A club after completing his recovery from surgery to repair a fractured right hand, which he sustained late in spring training. Before he was activated, Black played 10 games in a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League, slashing .387/.513/.613 with one home run in 39 plate appearances. Black should handle an everyday role with Nashville and will likely see starts in the infield in addition to both corner-outfield spots.

Closing in on 2025 Triple-A debut Black (hand) has made six appearances in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League during his rehab assignment, going 7-for-18 with two doubles, one triple, four walks, three RBI and...

Impact After falling short in his bid for a spot on the Brewers' Opening Day roster and being optioned to Triple-A Nashville on March 22, Black ended up beginning the season on Nashville's injured list due to a hamate fracture in his right hand. He underwent surgery and missed about six weeks of action before kicking off his rehab assignment in Arizona on May 15. He's expected to be activated from Nashville's IL early next week, according to MLB.com.

Rehabbing in Arizona Black (hand) began a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League last Thursday and has slashed .455/.571/.818 over 14 plate appearances through his first four games...

Impact Black remains on Triple-A Nashville's injured list after he sustained a fractured hamate bone in his right hand late in spring training, but he looks to be close to making his season debut with Milwaukee's top affiliate. The 24-year-old appeared in 18 games with the big club in 2024 and retains a spot on the Brewers' 40-man roster, but once activated, he'll likely need to turn in a solid run of production at the plate with Nashville before he garners consideration for a call-up.

MAY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Out 6-to-8 weeks with hand fracture Black will be sidelined 6-to-8 weeks after suffering a fractured right hamate bone, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact It's an injury that typically requires surgery and often results in a loss of power initially upon a return to action. In all likelihood, Black won't be an option for the Brewers until June or so. He managed just a .561 OPS during his time with the big club last season.

MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Nashville The Brewers optioned Black to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

Impact Between his poor showing in the Cactus League (5-for-34) and his struggles with the Brewers last season (.561 OPS), it seems Black is having a very hard time figuring out major-league pitchers. He'll now head back to Nashville in an effort to right the ship, but the 24-year-old infielder may be running out of chances to prove himself as a big-league hitter.

MARCH 22 • ROTOWIRE

Making spring debut Sunday Black (back) is batting third as the designated hitter in Sunday's Cactus League game against the Guardians.

Impact It's the first game action of the spring for Black, who suffered a minor back injury early in camp. The 24-year-old finished last season at Triple-A Nashville but received his first taste of the majors and had a .204/.316/.245 slash line and 29.8 percent strikeout rate in 57 plate appearances. He faces long odds to crack Milwaukee's Opening Day roster.

MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE

Hits off tee Tuesday Black (back) hit off a tee Tuesday and is hoping to make his Cactus League debut next week, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Black tweaked his back last week and has been dealing with some stiffness. The first baseman got into 18 games with the Brewers last season, slashing .204/.316/.245 with a pair of doubles, two RBI and three stolen bases across 57 plate appearances. Black is considered a long shot to make Milwaukee's Opening Day roster barring injury.

FEBRUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with back stiffness Black has been held out of Cactus League play due to minor back stiffness, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact It shouldn't be a long-term issue, but it's not clear when Black might be ready to play in games. Black already seemed unlikely to win a spot on the Opening Day roster, and any delay seemingly decreases his odds.

Moves back to Triple-A The Brewers optioned Black to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.

Impact Black will cede his spot on the 26-man active roster to outfielder Blake Perkins (calf), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list. After getting recalled from Nashville on Aug. 12, Black at designated hitter in five of the Brewers' ensuing nine games while going 2-for-15 with three walks against five strikeouts. Now that Black is out of the mix, the Brewers will likely rotate a number of players at DH, with Gary Sanchez, Jake Bauers and Perkins all being candidates to see upticks in opportunities.

AUGUST 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Absent from lineup again Black is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's contest against the Guardians.

Impact Since being recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Black has gone 1-for-11 over his last four major-league appearances. He'll begin Sunday's contest in the dugout while William Contrereas serves as the designated hitter for Sunday's series finale.

AUGUST 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Taking seat Saturday Black is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Black had started three of the Brewers' previous four games at DH, but he'll yield to William Contreras at the position Saturday while Gary Sanchez catches. Since being called up Monday, Black is 1-for-11 with two runs scored and an RBI.

AUGUST 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Exiting starting nine Thursday Black is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Dodgers.

Impact After getting called up from Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Black sat out the Brewers' series opener versus the Dodgers but served as the designated hitter in both of the past two contests, going 0-for-6 with a walk and three strikeouts. He'll find himself back on the bench for the finale, with Jake Bauers replacing Black in the lineup at DH. The Brewers could take a hot-hand approach to the DH spot while Christian Yelich (back) is on the shelf for the foreseeable future.

AUGUST 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Officially promoted Black was recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Monday.

Impact It was reported earlier in the day that Black was at American Family Field working out, and the team has announced that he'll join the active roster ahead of Monday's game against the Dodgers following the placement of Blake Perkins (calf) on the 10-day injured list. Black's last appearance for the Brewers dates back to June 29, and he's hitting .235 with two doubles, one RBI, three stolen bases and two runs scored in 12 games with the big-league club this season.

AUGUST 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Added to taxi squad Black has been added to the Brewers' taxi squad as injury protection for Blake Perkins (calf), Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Black is with the club at American Family Field on Monday but has not been added to the active roster. The Brewers seem hopeful that Perkins can avoid the injured list, but Black is around in case the injury lingers and a roster move is required. Black is 8-for-34 at the plate in 12 games with Milwaukee this season.

AUGUST 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to Triple-A The Brewers optioned Black to Triple-A Nashville following Sunday's win over the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact The 23-year-old was called up by Milwaukee on June 19 but totaled just 12 at-bats before being sent back to Triple-A. Black is one of the organization's top prospects but doesn't have a clear path to playing time in the big leagues given who the Brewers currently have available, so he'll go back to the minors to get everyday at-bats.
