Jackie Bradley Jr. - Starting again Wednesday Bradley will start in right field and bat eighth Wednesday against the Phillies. Impact Bradley will crack the starting nine for the third time in four games, with Avisail Garcia getting some extra maintenance Wednesday after recently returning from a tight hamstring and back. Garcia should be ready to take on an everyday role in right field moving forward, with Christian Yelich and Lorenzo Cain joining him in Milwaukee's regular outfield configuration. As such, opportunities are likely to be scarce for Bradley the rest of the way. The 31-year-old Bradley continues to impress with his defense, but not enough to atone for his lowly .521 OPS -- a nearly 300-point drop his 2020 mark (.814).
