Pedro Severino - Trying first base Severino (suspension) played first base in his first rehab game for Double-A Biloxi on Saturday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Impact He hasn't played first base before in the majors, but as a right-handed hitter with power, it's possible Severino could get looks at first base when the Brewers face lefties. This is more a testament to the fact the Brewers like the production they have gotten from Omar Narvaez and Victor Caratini at catcher, and Severino doesn't have any minor-league options remaining. Severino is a career .262/.324/.441 hitter against lefties, good for a 102 wRC+. He is due back from his suspension the first week of July.

Aaron Ashby - Throws Saturday Ashby (forearm) performed well during a throwing session Saturday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Ashby exited Thursday's start against the Mets as a precautionary measure due to left forearm tightness, but he's downplayed the severity of the issue in recent days. He said Friday that he expects to make his next turn through the rotation, and he was able to ramp up his intensity during Saturday's throwing session. Manager Craig Counsell said Saturday that the left-hander remains day-to-day for now, but he's certainly trending in the right direction.

Impact Brosseau has been sidelined with a right ankle sprain since early June, but he resumed jogging, taking swings and throwing last week. The 28-year-old should be cleared to return to game action in the minors in the coming days, but the Brewers haven't revealed what affiliate Brosseau will join. Regardless of the affiliate, it's possible that Brosseau will be reinstated from the injured list late next week or sometime next weekend.

Impact Wong initially hoped to return from the 10-day injured list as early as Saturday, but he'll be unable to do so following his setback. It's not yet clear when the 31-year-old will be able to return to game action, but Luis Urias should continue to see most of the playing time at second base while Jace Peterson sees additional playing time at the hot corner in Wong's absence.

Impact The long ball was Hiura's sixth of the season, and it was also his first extra-base hit off a lefty this season.
