Joey Wiemer News
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Joey Wiemer (knee) is looking at missing multiple weeks of action after suffering an injury earlier in the week. The young outfielder was placed on the 10-day injured list after hurting his knee on Friday. The organization has given a timetable of two or three weeks for Wiemer. This is good news as Wiemer will avoid surgery and only miss a few weeks of action. Jackson Chourio, Blake Perkins, and Sal Frelick figure to all see increased playing time while Wiemer and Christian Yelich (back) recover.
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Joey Wiemer (knee) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday with left knee discomfort. Infielder Andruw Monasterio was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move. Wiemer was removed from Friday's game after injuring his knee when attempting to catch a ball in left field. Wiemer struggled in his first major league season last year with a .204/.283/.362 line. He hit 13 home runs and swiped 11 bags. The 25-year-old carried his struggles into the early part of this season with a disappointing .174/.208/.174 line with no home runs and just one stolen base. The Brewers will have a revolving door in left field for the time being, splitting between Sal Frelick, Jackson Chouiro, and Jake Bauers. Rookie Jackson Chourio was given the nod to man left field in Saturday's game against the Chicago Cubs and will face Jameson Taillon, who is entering the game with a stellar 1.50 ERA.
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Joey Wiemer is absent from Thursday's starting lineup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. This appears to be a routine rest day for the struggling outfielder. Since the All-Star break, Wiemer is slashing .227/.282/.318 in 71 plate appearances. In his absence, Sal Frelick will cover center field and bat cleanup versus right-hander Lance Lynn on Thursday. This could be an interesting spot for Frelick against a struggling pitcher in Lynn.
