Joins big-league club The Brewers recalled Ashby from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.
Impact The left-hander has started in 14 of his 25 appearances for Nashville this season, and he's recently been operating out of the bullpen. Ashby has delivered six straight scoreless appearances at Triple-A and has a 14:1 K:BB during that stretch. He'll step into relief role for the Brewers, taking the roster spot of Nick Mears (forearm).

Fights control in loss Ashby (0-2) took the loss Wednesday as the Brewers were downed 2-0 by the Phillies, giving up two runs on two hits and five walks over five innings. He struck out three.
Impact The southpaw was recalled from Triple-A Nashville earlier in the day but had trouble finding the plate, tossing 49 of 91 pitches for strikes, and Ashby eventually paid for the free passes in the fifth inning when Garrett Stubbs led off the frame with a walk before Nick Castellanos clubbed a two-run homer. With Robert Gasser (elbow) the latest Milwaukee pitcher to land on the IL, Ashby figures to get multiple turns in the rotation. He lines up to make his next outing at home early next week against the Blue Jays.

Brewers place starter Jakob Junis on injured list, recall former top-prospect Aaron Ashby
The Milwaukee Brewers placed starting pitcher Jakob Junis on the 15-day injured list Saturday because of a right shoulder impingement, retroactive to WednesdayAPRIL 6 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Recalled from Triple-A The Brewers recalled Ashby from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.
Impact With Jakob Junis (shoulder) headed for the injured list, Ashby will come up from the minors and figures to fill the void in the Brewers' rotation. The 25-year-old lefty didn't pitch at all in 2023 as he worked his way back from a shoulder procedure, and he surrendered three runs across five innings during his first start in Triple-A.

Velocity trending up Brewers general manager Matt Arnold said Tuesday that Ashby's (shoulder) velocity has been trending in the right direction during recent throwing sessions, Curt Hogg of the Milwauk...
Impact Ashby underwent left shoulder surgery in April and struggled to regain his pre-op velocity initially. However, it sounds like it has ticked back up as he further distances himself from the operation. Ashby wound up being limited to just seven rehab innings in 2023, but the hope is that he will be ready to go for spring training.

Rehabbing in Nashville The Brewers transferred Ashby's (shoulder) rehab assignment to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Ashby remains unlikely to return to the Brewers' bullpen this season, but he continues to progress through the team's farm system as he works his way back from a shoulder procedure he underwent in April. The 25-year-old lefty has surrendered eight runs (seven earned) through 5.1 innings during his assignment and should be ready to go for spring training in 2024.

Not expected back this year Ashby (shoulder) is not expected to return to the Brewers this season, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact The rehabbing left-hander will instead finish out the year with scheduled appearances on the farm. He is currently with Double-A Biloxi and will move on to Triple-A Nashville next week. Ashby was diagnosed with an impingement and slight labral tear in February before undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his throwing shoulder in April.

Begins rehab assignment Ashby (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with High-A Wisconsin on Saturday.
Impact Ashby has been on the injured list all season while recovering from a shoulder surgery he underwent in early April. After pitching several side sessions to work out some issues with his delivery, the 25-year-old southpaw is now ready to return to game action. Ashby should be able to rejoin Milwaukee's bullpen as a multi-inning reliever before the end of the season.
SEPTEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Nearing rehab assignment Ashby (shoulder) is on track to begin a minor-league rehab assignment next weekend, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact Ashby has been working through some mechanical issues but recently turned a corner and is about ready to pitch in a live game for the first time in 2023. The 25-year-old left-hander underwent arthroscopic surgery on his throwing shoulder in April.
AUGUST 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Not ready for rehab games Ashby (shoulder) acknowledged Tuesday that he is still working on his delivery in side sessions, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact At last check, the 25-year-old left-hander was said to be nearing a minor-league rehab assignment, but his velocity hasn't returned to full force and he'll need more time before returning to live games. Ashby has been on the shelf all season due to a shoulder injury that required arthroscopic surgery back in early April.
AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Rehab decision coming The Brewers will make a decision on when to send Ashby (shoulder) on a rehab assignment "very soon," Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Ashby has been throwing bullpens and batting practice at the Brewers' complex in Arizona with no issues, but he hasn't been able to get up to his usual velocity. As a result, the team will be forced to decide whether to keep building Ashby up or send him on a minor-league rehab assignment. Manager Craig Counsell emphasized the importance of having Ashby capable of operating at "full octane" for Milwaukee down the stretch, but he added there will be "hurdles to clear" in order to do so.
