Garners third straight start Urias will start at second base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact He'll pick up a third straight start at the keystone after going 3-for-7 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a run in his first two games with Boston since being added to the 26-man active roster after he was acquired from the Brewers on Tuesday. Considering that the second-base spot has been a revolving door all season for Boston, manager Alex Cora may be content to give Urias a trial as the everyday option at the keystone, at least while Urias is putting together quality plate appearances.

Recalled to Boston Boston recalled Urias from Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Urias was acquired from the Brewers just before Tuesday's trade deadline and will look to start fresh with the Red Sox in what has been an injury-stunted 2023 campaign. When healthy this season, the 26-year-old former top prospect has slashed just .145/.299/.236 with one home run in 20 major-league games. Christian Arroyo was designated for assignment Friday in a corresponding roster move.

AUGUST 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dealt to BoSox The Brewers traded Urias to the Red Sox on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact After a disappointing start to the season, the Brewers optioned Urias to Triple-A Nashville at the end of June. Since then, Urias has slashed .250/.392/.447 with four homers. It's unclear whether the Red Sox plan on keeping Urias in the minors or adding him to their MLB bench, but he doesn't project to offer much fantasy value either way.

AUGUST 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Nashville Milwaukee optioned Urias to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.

Impact Urias missed all of April and May due to a severe hamstring strain and has not been able to get it going here in June, so he'll head to the minors to face some lesser competition. Brice Turang is returning to the Brewers in a corresponding roster move.

JUNE 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Wednesday Urias is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Mets.

Impact Brian Anderson will cover third base with Blake Perkins patrolling right field. Urias went 0-for-3 in Tuesday night's loss at New York and is batting just .148/.303/.241 over 19 games (67 plate appearances) in what has been an injury-marred first half of the 2023 season.

JUNE 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Steps out of lineup Urias is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Urias started the past four games and will take a seat Sunday in Cleveland after going 3-for-13 with a double, a walk, an RBI and two runs. Owen Miller will move to the hot corner while Andruw Monasterio starts at second base.

JUNE 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Monday Urias is not in the starting lineup Monday against Arizona.

Impact Urias will get a day off after he went 2-for-10 with two RBI and a run scored while starting all three games of the team's series with the Pirates. Brian Anderson will slot in at third base while Raimel Tapia draws the start in right field and bats sixth in the series opener with the Diamondbacks.

JUNE 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not in Saturday's lineup Urias will be on the bench Saturday against Oakland.

Impact Urias returned from the 60-day injured list Monday but has so far not been asked to start more than two games in a row. He hasn't done much at the plate in four games since returning from his hamstring strain, going 1-for-13 with five strikeouts. Owen Miller starts at third base Saturday.

JUNE 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Wednesday Urias is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Orioles.

Impact Urias will grab some rest after going 0-for-6 with three strikeouts (and a pair of walks) in his first two games since returning Monday from a severe hamstring strain. Owen Miller is at third base for the Brewers on Wednesday and Andruw Monasterio will play second.

JUNE 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Makes return from IL Urias was activated from the 60-day injured list Monday.

Impact The initial expectation was that Urias would be activated Tuesday when the Brewers return home, but he has instead met up with them in Cincinnati a day earlier. Urias has missed most of the season with a strained hamstring. He figures to see the lion's share of playing time at third base, with Brian Anderson playing more in right field.

JUNE 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Expected back Tuesday Urias (hamstring) is expected to be reinstated from the 10-day injured list before Tuesday's game versus the Orioles, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Urias has been out for two months with a severe hamstring strain, but the infielder was able to start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville, and he's now ready to return to the Milwaukee lineup early next week. The Brewers will need to make room on the 40-man roster in order to incorporate Urias, as he's currently on the 60-day injured list. Once active, he should see regular time with Milwaukee, and he could hit near the top of the lineup, especially against left-handed pitching.

JUNE 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to return this week Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Tuesday that Urias (hamstring) is likely to return early next week, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Urias began a minor-league rehab assignment last week and was eligible to return from the injured list ahead of Tuesday night's game in Toronto, but it sounds like the Brewers will keep him on the farm throughout their current road trip, which runs through next Monday. The 25-year-old infielder has been on the shelf since April 1 because of a severe hamstring strain.

MAY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Begins rehab assignment Urias (hamstring) is beginning a rehab assignment Wednesday with Triple-A Nashville.

Impact Urias will play third base and bat second for the Nashville Sounds in his first live game since he suffered a severe left hamstring strain back on Opening Day. He seems likely to be activated from the 60-day injured list in the early portion of the Brewers' upcoming road trip, which begins May 30 and runs through June 5.

MAY 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rehab assignment imminent Urias (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday or Wednesday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Urias has been playing in some extended spring training games lately without issue and is almost ready to test things out in official rehab contests. He's been on the shelf since suffering a strained hamstring on Opening Day and isn't eligible for activation until May 31.

MAY 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Progressing in running program Urias (hamstring) progressed to running at 50 percent Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact The 25-year-old landed on the shelf April 1 after he suffered a major hamstring strain Opening Day, and he should be nearing the halfway point in his recovery process. Urias will be eligible to be reinstated from the 60-day IL on May 31, though he clearly still has significant work to do in his rehab program.

APRIL 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Transferred to 60-day IL Urias (hamstring) was transferred Tuesday from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Urias suffered a severe left hamstring strain in the Brewers' season opener March 30 against the Cubs. The initial timeline called for him to miss at least eight weeks, so this is mostly just a paperwork move to clear out a 40-man roster spot.

APRIL 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

May miss eight weeks Urias was placed on the injured list Saturday with a hamstring strain which could keep him out for eight weeks, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Urias suffered the injury on Opening Day, and it's evidently a fairly serious one. He's been given a timetable of six-to-eight weeks, with the Brewers expecting him to fall on the later end of that range. Mike Brosseau will take over at third base Saturday, but Brian Anderson, who starts in right field, could wind up being the primary option against righties. That would open up more at-bats for Brewers outfielders, including Joey Wiemer, who was recalled to take Urias' spot on the roster.

APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Could head to injured list Urias (hamstring) could be headed to the injured list, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Urias was removed Thursday with a left hamstring injury, and it has been reported that the Brewers will call up Joey Wiemer before Saturday's game against the Cubs. That would allow the Brewers to move Brian Anderson to third base while Wiemer would likely be the regular in right field. Should Urias be placed on the IL, he wouldn't be eligible to return until April 10, at the earliest.

APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Injures hamstring Urias suffered a left hamstring injury Thursday versus the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Brewers expect to have an update on the third baseman either Friday or Saturday, so Urias could miss Game 2 of the season-opening series on Saturday. Urias went 0-for-4 on Opening Day.

MARCH 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Draws back into lineup Urias (head) will start at third base and bat fifth in Sunday's Cactus League game against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Urias had been out of action the past two days after he experienced a bout of dizziness, but he was never diagnosed with a concussion and looks like he'll be good to go after a brief respite. Though he'll be making his first start of the spring at third base, Urias is projected to see most of his action at the keystone in 2023 after seeing five of his six Cactus League starts to date at that position.

MARCH 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Expected back Sunday Urias experienced dizziness before Friday's Cactus League game, but he is expected back in the lineup for Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Urias was scratched from the lineup before Friday's game, but it was just precautionary and the Brewers wanted to give him a couple of days off. It appears he'll be more than ready for the start of the season come Thursday.

MARCH 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scratched from lineup Friday Urias was scratched from the Brewers' lineup ahead of Friday's Cactus League game against the Rockies, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact It's unclear why Urias was taken out of the Crew's lineup, but it doesn't seem like it's injury-related. Cam Devanney will take over for him at third base.

MARCH 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Three-run homer in WBC loss Urias hit a three-run homer during Monday's 6-5 loss for Team Mexico to Team Japan in the semifinals of the World Baseball Classic.

Impact Urias swatted the homer with two runners aboard off an otherwise impressive Roki Sasaki to give Mexico a 3-0 lead in the fourth. The infielder played well in the tournament with a .278/.381/.444 slash with a homer and four RBI. With Mexico now eliminated, he'll head back to Arizona. He's expected to be a regular for the Brewers during the 2023 campaign.
