Tyson Miller - Called up Wednesday The Brewers recalled Miller from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Miller will return to the big leagues after he was optioned to Triple-A right before the regular season started. The right-hander has appeared in seven games with Nashville so far in 2023, producing a 1.42 ERA and 1.15 WHIP with nine strikeouts over 12.2 innings. To make room for Miller on the major-league roster, Alex Claudio was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Tyler Naquin - Returns to action at Triple-A Naquin (shoulder) was activated from Triple-A Nashville's 7-day injured list Tuesday and went 3-for-4 with two stolen bases and a run scored in his return to the lineup for the Sou...

Impact Naquin was sidelined for a little over a week due to the bruised shoulder but looked plenty healthy in his return to the lineup. With Garrett Mitchell (shoulder) recently joining Tyrone Taylor (elbow) on the Brewers' 10-day IL and with Triple-A teammate Sal Frelick (thumb) likely out for the next 6-to-8 weeks, Naquin could be next in line for a promotion if Milwaukee needs another outfielder.

Impact Contreras will get Wednesday off after going 2-for-7 with a homer over the first two games of the series with the Tigers. Victor Caratini is starting behind the plate and hitting sixth while Contreras rests.

Eric Lauer - Tore nail during start Lauer tore the nail on his left middle finger in a loss to the Pirates on Wednesday, but he doesn't expect to miss a start,Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Lauer struggled over three innings by allowing four runs on eight hits, and he was visited by a team trainer during the long second inning. The southpaw didn't blame the tear for his command issues, but it clearly didn't help. For now, it seems very likely that Lauer will make his next scheduled start, but if there are any side effects it's possible he'll be pushed back a day or two.

Eric Lauer - Labors through three frames Lauer (3-2) took the loss Tuesday versus the Tigers, allowing four runs on eight hits and two walks in three innings. He struck out four.

Impact The left-hander needed 85 pitches to record just nine outs, with Detroit scoring all four of its runs during a 40-pitch second inning. It's been boom or bust through five starts for Lauer this year, as he's given up 10 earned runs in his two losses but has a 2.37 ERA across 19 frames in his three victories.

Blake Perkins - Back to bench Tuesday Perkins is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

Impact Perkins had started each of the Brewers' last three games, but he went just 1-for-8 with four strikeouts during that stretch and will now head to the bench. The Brewers have a long-term opening in the outfield with Garrett Mitchell (shoulder) soon set to undergo what could be a season-ending surgery, but Perkins hasn't made an early case to receive a regular role.

Sal Frelick - Undergoes surgery, out 6-8 weeks Frelick underwent UCL repair surgery on his left thumb Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports

Impact After spraining his thumb last week, Frelick's injury was initially believed to be relatively minor, but he is now expected to be out for up to eight weeks due to the surgery. The 23-year-old prospect was slashing .232/.317/.321 in Triple-A Nashville prior to getting injured, and he could be in line for a promotion when he returns now that Garrett Mitchell (shoulder) is likely out for the rest of the season.

Garrett Mitchell - Will undergo surgery Mitchell will have surgery on his left shoulder after receiving a second opinion Tuesday, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

Impact After suffering significant damage to his labrum while sliding into third base last week against Seattle, Mitchell will now officially undergo surgery. The speedy center fielder will likely be held out of action until the final weeks of the season, if not the rest of it. Since Mitchell's injury, Joey Wiemer has received the majority of reps in center field for Milwaukee, but that could change once Tyrone Taylor (elbow) and Sal Frelick (thumb) recover from their respective injuries.

Gus Varland - Set for rehab appearances Varland (hand) is set to make rehab appearances Thursday and Saturday with High-A Wisconsin, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact If both of those outings go smoothly, Varland will then travel to Colorado with the Brewers next week and should be activated at some point during the three-game series (May 2-4) at Coors Field. He's been sidelined since April 15 due to a right hand contusion.

Colin Rea - Handed first loss Rea (0-1) allowed four runs on five hits and four walks over five innings Monday, striking out one and taking a loss against Detroit.

Impact Nearly all of the damage against Rea came on Nick Maton's three-run shot in the third inning. Rea later coughed up one more run in the fifth during his lackluster outing. After a solid season debut, he's been tagged with eight runs over 10 innings in his last two starts, ballooning his ERA to 5.17. Rea is projected for a home matchup with the Angels this weekend.
