Brewers' Chad Patrick: Allows two runs in no-decision
Rotowire
Patrick did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 4-2 win against the Rays, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks with four strikeouts over 4.1 innings.
Patrick was handed a 3-2 lead in the top of the fifth inning but was unable to complete the frame and earn the win after allowing a double and walk. He generated 11 swinging strikes on 81 pitches and has now allowed three earned runs or fewer in all eight of his starts this season. He'll carry a 3.19 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 36:14 K:BB across 42.1 innings into a home matchup with the Twins next weekend.

Brewers' Trevor Megill: Notches fifth save
Rotowire
Megill earned the save in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Rays, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.
Megill was called upon to protect a 4-2 lead in the ninth and did so on just 13 pitches. Since blowing his first save April 12, the 31-year-old has converted four straight chances while yielding only one run over nine appearances. On the season, he owns a 3.18 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB across 11.1 innings while securing five saves in six opportunities.

Brewers' Christian Yelich: Homers, steals in win
Rotowire
Yelich went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Rays.
Yelich homered and stole a base in the same game for the second time this week and the fourth time this season. He's struggled overall in May, though, going just 6-for-35 with a 1:13 BB:K in nine games. On the season, he carries a disappointing .208 batting average but continues to provide value with seven home runs, 26 RBI, 19 runs scored and eight steals across 165 plate appearances.

Brewers' Brandon Woodruff: Excels in short rehab outing
Rotowire
Woodruff (shoulder) gave up one earned run on two hits and no walks while striking out three batters over 2.1 innings in his rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Nashville.
After covering at least five innings in each of his previous three rehab outings, Woodruff covered about half of that length Sunday, though the lighter workload was a pre-planned arrangement in what will be his final start of his minor-league assignment, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Woodruff was efficient in the abbreviated outing, spotting 28 of 39 pitches for strikes and giving up a pair of softly hit singles. Woodruff had built up to 83 pitches in his previous start with Nashville on Tuesday, so he should be able to handle something close to a typical starter's workload once he joins the Brewers. Milwaukee is expected to activate Woodruff from the 15-day injured list next weekend to have him start against the Twins at American Family Field in what will be his first big-league outing since Sept. 23, 2023.
Brewers' Isaac Collins: Sitting for second time in series
Rotowire
Collins is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
After Garrett Mitchell (oblique) landed on the injured list April 26, Collins has taken on a more regular role in the outfield and has produced a .782 OPS since that time. However, his grasp on an everyday gig could be slipping, as Collins now finds himself on the bench versus a right-handed pitcher (Drew Rasmussen) for the second time in the series. Jake Bauers will pick up another start in left field at Collins' expense.

Brewers' William Contreras: Making third straight start
Rotowire
Contreras will start at catcher and bat cleanup in Sunday's game against the Rays.
Though he sat out Wednesday's 9-1 loss to Houston, Contreras confirmed that he planned to continue playing through a fractured middle finger on his catching hand. The two-time All-Star caught eight innings Friday and nine more Saturday while going 1-for-7 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored. Even with the Brewers playing a day game Sunday, Contreras won't be deployed as a designated hitter and will remain behind the plate, a sign the coaching and training staffs are comfortable with his health.

Brewers' Elvis Peguero: Moves up to big leagues
Rotowire
The Brewers recalled Peguero from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.
Milwaukee sent starter Tobias Myers to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Peguero was a staple of the Milwaukee bullpen in 2024, but the 28-year-old righty posted a 5.68 ERA and 1.74 WHIP in five appearances to begin the season before being optioned to Nashville on April 11. The right-hander has performed better over the past month at Triple-A, giving up two earned runs on six hits and four walks over eight innings across seven appearances.

Brewers' Tobias Myers: Sent to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Brewers optioned Myers to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.
The right-hander gave up two runs over four frames in a no-decision Saturday versus the Rays, and it appears he'll be the odd man out of the rotation with Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) and Aaron Civale (hamstring) nearing their returns from the injured list. Myers missed most of the first month of the season due to an oblique strain and never fully found his footing through five outings with a 3.86 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 11:10 K:BB across 16.1 innings. The 26-year-old was a key rotation piece for Milwaukee last season and will likely get another look in the majors before too long.
Brewers' Tobias Myers: Goes four innings in no-decision
Rotowire
Myers did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Rays, allowing two runs on three hits and three walks with three strikeouts over four innings.
Myers allowed two runs in the fourth inning and was lifted after 75 pitches, 47 of which went for strikes. The 26-year-old has completed five innings just once through four starts, never exceeding 82 pitches. He owns a 3.86 ERA, 1.53 WHIP, and 11:10 K:BB across 16.1 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Twins next weekend.
Dalbec signed a minor-league contract with the Brewers on Saturday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Dalbec became a free agent Tuesday after being designated for assignment by the White Sox, with whom he went 4-for-18 across seven games. Now in the Brewers organization, the 29-year-old will return to Triple-A, where he's slashed .326/.354/.696 over 48 plate appearances this year.

Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Busy on basepaths Friday
Rotowire
Chourio went 3-for-5 with a run scored and two stolen bases in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Rays.
His error in center field in the third inning helped Tampa Bay get on the board, but Chourio did his best to make up for it from the leadoff spot. The 21-year-old has been on a roll over the last couple weeks, slashing .304/.316/.446 since April 25 with one homer, three steals, four RBI and five runs in 13 contests.

Brewers' Jose Quintana: Settles for no-decision Friday
Rotowire
Quintana came away with a no-decision in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Rays, giving up three runs (one earned) on five hits and two walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out three.
An error by Jackson Chourio in the third inning and an interference call on Caleb Durbin in the sixth during a rundown led to the two unearned runs against Quintana. The veteran southpaw got the hook after 75 pitches (51 strikes) and passed a big personal milestone along the way -- he's one of only six active pitchers with over 2,000 career innings in the majors, joining a group that includes Justin Verlander, Clayton Kershaw and Chris Sale. The Brewers have rotation reinforcements on the way, but Quintana's spot seems secure given his 2.65 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 24:11 K:BB through 34 innings. He'll look to get back in the win column in his next outing, which lines up to come on the road next week in Cleveland.
Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Starting Monday vs. Cleveland
Rotowire
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Friday that Peralta (groin) is scheduled to start against the Guardians on Monday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Peralta tweaked his groin near the end of his last start against the Cubs this past Sunday. He was able to throw a bullpen session Friday without issue, and the 28-year-old right-hander is on track to take the hill for the Brewers on Monday while Chad Patrick gets the start against the Rays on Sunday. Peralta is 4-2 in eight starts with a 2.18 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 48:15 K:BB across 45.1 innings.

Brewers' Aaron Ashby: Shifting rehab to Triple-A
Rotowire
Ashby (oblique) will move his rehab assignment to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Ashby started the season on the injured list due to a right oblique strain he suffered in mid-March. He was recently cleared to embark on a rehab assignment, and in his lone outing in the Arizona Complex League on Tuesday he allowed three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out one over 1.1 innings. The 26-year-old southpaw is aiming to toss about three innings Sunday, and he'll likely need multiple rehab outings before he's cleared to return to the majors.
