Freddy Peralta - Fans season-high 10 in Monday's win Peralta (3-1) picked up the win in Monday's 1-0 victory over Atlanta, giving up two hits and a walk over seven scoreless innings while striking out a season-high 10.

Impact Two of the three baserunners Peralta allowed reached in the first inning, but after he snuffed out that threat, he dominated Atlanta the rest of the way. The right-hander fired 67 of 102 pitches for strikes as he won his third straight start and produced his second quality start of the year, and he'll take a 3.53 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 48:12 K:BB through 35.2 innings into his next outing. Peralta also reached 500 strikeouts for his career with the performance, and among active pitchers who have pitched at least as many innings as him, only Max Scherzer and Gerrit Cole have better lifetime K/9 rates.

Jandel Gustave - To miss approximately six weeks Gustave is expected to miss around six weeks while recovering from a right hamstring strain, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Gustave was placed on the 15-day IL on Sunday, and the injury will sideline him for at least the next month and a half. J.C Mejia figures to take his place in the bullpen, but he's unlikely to see many high-levearge opportunities with Brad Boxberger, Devin Williams and Josh Hader holding down the back end.

Andrew McCutchen - Will ramp up quickly McCutchen is expected to get back up to speed quickly once he's activated from the COVID-19 injured list, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact McCutchen has been on the IL since May 7, but manager Craig Counsell expects him to be back in action for the Brewers shortly after he's cleared to return. "It'll be a quick ramp-up," said Counsell. "This is not a long process for him to get back ready but we have to get him back in the building." The former MVP was hitting .240 with two homers, 14 RBI, three stolen bases and 11 runs scored through 25 games prior to landing on the injured list.

Willy Adames sidelined Monday by sprained ankle, an injury that could land him on the IL The shortstop rolled his ankle on a slide into home plate in the first inning Sunday. He had designs on playing all 162 games this season.

Jace Peterson - Continues to handle regular role Peterson will start at third base and bat eighth in Monday's game against Atlanta, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Peterson's defensive versatility has allowed him to hold down a quasi-everyday role of late, as he'll stay in the lineup for the seventh time in eight games Monday while playing his third different position. He's helped his case for seeing steady at-bats by going 7-for-24 with two home runs and three walks over his last seven starts. The Brewers are without Willy Adames (ankle) due to an injury that could force him to the injured list, so Peterson looks like he may have a clear path to a regular role at third base if Luis Urias is forced to cover shortstop in Adames' stead.

Willy Adames - Could require IL stint Manager Craig Counsell said Monday that Adames (ankle) could require a trip to the injured list, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Adames underwent X-rays that came back negative Sunday, but he's still feeling sore and will visit with team doctors Monday night. He's out of the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta, but the team could choose to give him additional time to recover. If Adames requires a trip to the injured list, Luis Urias and Mike Brosseau would likely see additional time at shortstop, while Pablo Reyes would be a candidate to join the major-league roster.

Willy Adames - Not in Monday's lineup Adames (ankle) isn't starting Monday's game against Atlanta, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Adames sustained a left ankle sprain during Sunday's win over the Marlins, but he underwent X-rays that came back negative. However, he'll be held out of the lineup for the first time this season. Luis Urias will shift to shortstop while Jace Peterson starts at third base.

Brent Suter - Reinstated from paternity list Suter (personal) was reinstated from the paternity list Monday.

Impact Suter missed the Brewers' weekend series against the Marlins following the birth of his child, but he'll rejoin the club prior to Monday's series opener in Milwaukee against Atlanta. Over five appearances since the start of May, the southpaw has posted a 1.80 ERA and 1.40 WHIP in five innings.

Christian Yelich - Nabs fourth steal Yelich went 0-for-3 with two walks, a run and a stolen base in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Marlins.

Impact Though he saw his three-game hitting streak come to an end in the series finale versus his former organization, Yelich still delivered value for fantasy managers thanks to the stolen base, his fourth of the season. Yelich's .807 OPS on the campaign is still nearly 200 points below his marks from his first two years in Milwaukee in 2018 and 2019, but it's a marked improvement from his output in the category (.752) between the previous two seasons.

Rowdy Tellez - Tallies eighth long ball Tellez went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and a walk in Sunday's victory over the Marlins.

Impact Tellez went through a 3-for-28 (.107) stretch in the seven games that preceded Sunday's, but he got back on track with his eighth long ball of the season. He is now up to 29 RBI, which ties him for third among all players league-wide.

Joey Wiemer - Putting power on display Wiemer went 10-for-24 (.417) with five home runs, eight RBI and two stolen bases over his last six games with Double-A Biloxi.

Impact Double-A pitchers have had few answers for Wiemer, who is hitting .302/.375/.605 with nine home runs, 12 doubles and 26 RBI -- to go along with six stolen bases -- through 144 plate appearances at the level. They have been able to strike out him 45 times, though, and his 31.2 percent strikeout rate is the highest of his career. Wiemer's prospect star is on the rise, but he's going to have to make more contact to assert his standing.

Brandon Woodruff - Picks up win over Marlins Woodruff (4-2) allowed three runs (one earned) on five hits and two walks over five innings Sunday, striking out six and earning a win over Miami.

Impact Woodruff coughed up a two-run single to Payton Henry in the second inning after the frame began with an error. He was then taken deep for a solo shot in the third by Jorge Soler. The 6-foot-4 righty saw his season ERA drop to 5.35 through 33.2 innings, but he's given up five home runs over his last three outings. Woodruff will look to string together victories in his projected home start against Washington next weekend.

Willy Adames - X-rays negative Adames (ankle) underwent X-rays that came back negative Sunday, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

Impact Adames exited Sunday's win over the Marlins due to a left ankle sprain, and he doesn't appear to be dealing with any structural damage. He'll be reevaluated when the Brewers return to Milwaukee on Monday and is considered day-to-day for now. If Adames misses any additional time, Luis Urias and Mike Brosseau would likely fill in at shortstop.

Kolten Wong - Perfect day at plate Wong went 2-for-2 with a solo home run, two runs scored and three walks in Sunday's 7-5 win over Miami. He also stole two bases.

Impact Wong stuffed the stat sheet in Sunday's victory. He drilled a solo homer off of Elieser Hernandez in the fifth inning and added a pair of steals in the third and eighth frames. He's up to eight steals and five homers with a .257/.333/.431 slash line through 126 plate appearances.
