Impact Contreras didn't have to miss any time because of the injury, but it did force a move from catcher to the designated hitter spot in Game 3 of the series. He will not require surgery on the knee and is expected to be fine by the time spring training rolls around with an offseason of rest.

Back in lineup as DH Contreras (finger/hip) is in the lineup as the designated hitter for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.
Impact The 26-year-old is said to be dealing with lingering finger and hip issues, but he will tough it out Sunday with the help of the DH tag. Milwaukee has already secured the NL Central, so Contreras could perhaps see additional down time over the final week of the season. That said, he's been a workhorse and will likely push to play as much as the team will let him in preparation for the playoffs.

Diamondbacks visit the Brewers on 4-game road win streak

Dealing with lingering injuries Contreras was held out of Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks due to finger and hip injuries, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Contreras' injuries appear to be minor and he wanted to play Saturday, but the Brewers will rest the 26-year-old catcher for at least one contest. He could be back as soon as Sunday for the series finale, but with the Brewers scheduled for an off day Monday, he could be held out for additional rest until the start of the upcoming road series against the Pirates on Tuesday. Since Sept. 1, Contreras has slashed .286/.397/.500 with three home runs and 12 RBI across 69 plate appearances.

Getting breather Saturday Contreras isn't in the Brewers' lineup Saturday versus Arizona.
Impact Contreras will get a chance to catch his breath Saturday after going 4-for-5 with a two-run homer in Friday's loss. Eric Haase will fill in for him behind the plate and bat ninth.

Four hits in Friday's loss Contreras went 4-for-5 with a two-run home run in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.
Impact The star backstop took Zac Gallen deep in the fifth inning as the Brewers rallied from an early 4-0 deficit, but the Milwaukee offense failed to score a run in any other frame. Contreras is red hot with the playoffs looming, slashing .400/.490/.700 over his last 12 games with three doubles, three homers, eight runs and 12 RBI, and he sits four runs and eight RBI short of reaching 100 in each category for the first time in his career.
