Impact Claudio will serve as Edwin Diaz's replacement after Diaz tore his right patellar tendon Wednesday. Once Claudio returns from the WBC, he will most likely begin the season with Triple-A Nashville.

Alex Claudio - Joining Team Puerto Rico Claudio was added to Team Puerto Rico's roster for the World Baseball Classic, Marly Rivera of ESPN.com reports.
Brian Anderson - Racking up hits this spring Anderson is 8-for-19 (.421) with two home runs through nine games this spring in the Cactus League.
Impact Anderson had a rough final year in Miami last season, but there's some thought that he could be rejuvenated offensively following an offseason move to Milwaukee. He's in line for everyday playing time out of the gate, whether in the corner outfield or his standard position at third base, and American Family Field is a lot friendlier to hitters than loanDepot park. There should deep-league fantasy appeal here.

Justin Wilson - Progressing nicely in rehab Wilson (elbow) began a flat-ground throwing program and has been "progressing nicely," Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact Wilson signed with the Brewers in February while in the process of recovering from the Tommy John procedure he underwent in June. The team still expects the veteran reliever to return in July, at which point he will likely give the Brewers some bullpen depth and see most of his appearances come during low-leverage scenarios.

Garrett Mitchell - Target return pushed back Brewers manager Craig Counsell said the team will "go slow" in working Mitchell back from his right hamstring injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact Mitchell was originally scheduled to return to game action sometime this weekend, but now the team is reportedly aiming for the speedy center fielder to return around Tuesday. Despite the delay, Mitchell still figures to be at full health by Opening Day.

Aaron Ashby - Throws on flat ground Ashby (shoulder) played catch on flat ground Wednesday in Brewers camp, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Ashby said he was tossing at a distance of about 75 feet and that the workout lasted around 10 minutes. He plans to do something similar within the next couple of days, assuming his left shoulder continues to respond well. The 24-year-old southpaw will open the 2023 season on the injured list after being diagnosed last month with a slight labral tear and impingement, but he could be an option for Milwaukee by mid-May if there are no hiccups in his throwing progression.

Brandon Woodruff - Held back due to wet conditions Woodruff won't make his scheduled start during Wednesday's Cactus League game versus the Diamondbacks due to wet field conditions, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Impact There's a good chance the game will be rained out, anyway, but either way Woodruff will get his work in on the side. If the contest is played, Matt Bush will serve as an opener and be followed by Gus Varland and Hoby Milner.

Bryse Wilson - Throwing well this spring Wilson tossed 3.2 scoreless innings of relief in Monday's exhibition contest. He allowed one hit, hit a batter and posted a 2:2 K:BB in the outing.
Impact Wilson has toed the rubber three times this spring, and he has kept the opponent off the scoreboard on all three occasions while posting a 0.71 WHIP and 6:2 K:BB over 5.2 combined frames. The 25-year-old has not found much success at the top level, but he cannot be optioned, and his strong spring could help him break camp with the big club.
MARCH 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Corbin Burnes - Cruises in third spring start Burnes threw 29 pitches over four scoreless innings in Monday's spring game. He allowed just one hit, hit a batter and posted a 5:1 K:BB in the outing.
Impact Burnes gave up a couple earned runs in his first two exhibition outings, but he was locked in Monday, allowing just three runners to reach base. He has not officially been named the Opening Day starter for the Brewers, but expect him to be on the mound when they kick off the regular season March 30 against the Cubs.

Alex Claudio - Sent to MiLB camp Claudio was assigned to minor-league camp Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Claudio figures to begin the 2023 campaign with Triple-A Nashville and serve as veteran bullpen depth for the Brewers. The southpaw appeared in three games a season ago while with the Mets and hurled 3.1 scoreless frames, striking out two and walking two in the process.

Thyago Vieira - Joining minor-league camp Vieira was assigned to minor-league camp Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Vieira agreed to a minor-league contract with Milwaukee earlier in the year and looked to have a chance to crack the Opening Day roster as part of the Brewers' bullpen. However, he got roughed up in three spring appearances, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks while striking out three over three frames of relief work and will now head to minor-league camp. The right-hander will serve as bullpen depth and figures to have a chance for a mid-season promotion.
MARCH 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ethan Small - Sent to Triple-A camp Small was optioned Monday to Triple-A Nashville by the Brewers, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Small was auditioning for a bullpen spot with the Brewers this spring, but he comes up short -- at least to begin the season. The left-hander has shown impressive swing-and-miss stuff, but also has had trouble finding the strike zone, and that includes three walks in five innings over four Cactus League appearances. If Small can ever find the command, he has a chance to be a fantasy contributor, but there's as much risk as there is reward in his profile.

Colin Rea - Heads to MiLB camp Rea was assigned to minor-league camp Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Rea will head to Milwaukee's farm system to serve as pitching depth after spending the 2022 season in Japan with the Fukuoka Softbank Hawks. His last big-league experience dates back to 2021 when he made one appearance for the Brewers, though he also pitched in 20 contests during the 2016 season across stops in Miami and San Diego.
