Adrian Houser - Allows five in loss Houser (7-6) allowed five runs on five hits and three walks with four strikeouts through five innings, taking the loss in Saturday's 6-4 defeat to the Twins.
Impact This was a perplexing outing for Houser. Through three innings, the right-hander was working on a no-hitter. In the fourth, the Twins sent 10 men to the plate and scored four times, as Houser gave up three hits, three walks and hit a batter. But baseball is weird, and the 28-year-old followed that clunker of an inning up with a three-pitch frame in the fifth, retiring Jorge Polanco, Josh Donaldson and Max Kepler on back-to-back-to-back offerings. Regardless of the oddities associated with this start, the five runs are a letdown, as Houser entered play having allowed just one earned run in his last 16.2 innings.

Ethan Small - Returns from injured list Small (finger) was activated off the 7-day injured list and started for Triple-A Nashville on Saturday, Sounds broadcaster Jeff Hem reports.
Impact Small delivered two scoreless frames in his first start since July 6 after being on the injured list with a strained tendon in his left middle finger. The 24-year-old made one rehab appearance with the rookie-level affiliate Tuesday and is now back with Nashville to close out the Triple-A season. He has a 1.77 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 73:30 K:BB over 56 innings between Double-A and Triple-A this year.

Willy Adames - DH'ing Saturday Adames (quadriceps) is batting second as the designated hitter Saturday against the Twins.
Impact Adames hasn't played since exiting Tuesday's game with a quadriceps injury. It's unclear how soon the shortstop will be able to play his position again, but the Brewers might DH him again Sunday to take advantage of the last game in Minnesota and protect Adames' health.

Eric Lauer - Allows two runs in loss Lauer (4-5) yielded two runs on six hits and two walks over 4.2 innings Friday, striking out six and taking a loss against Minnesota.
Impact Lauer coughed up a two-run homer to Josh Donaldson in the first inning but avoided any further damage. He needed 102 pitches (63 strikes) to get through 4.2 frames and has now failed to finish five innings in three straight starts. The 26-year-old's ERA is now up to 3.61 through 82.1 innings. Lauer is lined up to face the Giants on the road next week.

Freddy Peralta - Impresses during bullpen Peralta (shoulder) impressed during Friday's bullpen session, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact The Brewers have been hopeful that Peralta will be able to return by late next week or sometime next weekend, and he drew praise from manager Craig Counsell following Friday's throwing session. The right-hander will likely throw another bullpen in the coming days before the team doctors determine his return date.

Willy Adames - Could return Saturday Adames (quadriceps) hit and ran on the field ahead of Friday's game against the Twins, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Impact Adames will participate in baseball activities again Saturday, and manager Craig Counsell said that the 25-year-old will return to the lineup as the designated hitter Saturday if all goes well. The shortstop has missed the last three games due to left quadriceps discomfort.
AUGUST 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Eduardo Escobar - Progressing in recovery Escobar (hamstring) played catch and hit ahead of Friday's game against the Twins, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Impact Escobar is expected to miss approximately two weeks after he was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a strained right hamstring, but it's encouraging to see him resume activities shortly after he sustained the injury. The 32-year-old still has several steps remaining in his recovery before he's cleared to return to game action, but he appears to be on the right track.
