After breaking a three-game losing streak on Sunday, the Brewers are back tonight to continue their homestand. Next up are the Arizona Diamondbacks, who are in for a three-game series.
For the Brewers, Chad Patrick is on the mound tonight. He’s coming off of a rough appearance in Detroit where he allowed four runs in four innings. Other than that appearance, he’s been good this season, allowing zero or one runs in his other four appearances. For the Diamondbacks, Merrill Kelly is making his third start of the season. He’s coming off of a bad start against the White Sox, allowing eight runs in 4 1/3 innings.
Prior to tonight’s game, we received several injury updates on the Brewers’ roster from Pat Murphy:
- Jackson Chourio and Andrew Vaughn are both scheduled to begin rehab appearances tomorrow night with Triple-A Nashville. Their expected return is on Monday, May 4.
- Quinn Priester is throwing a side session tomorrow and will make his next rehab start on Friday. He’s expected to throw “four ups” and around 60-65 pitches. As for his command issues, they are normal in a return from the type of injury he is recovering from.
- Christian Yelich remains on schedule in his recovery. He’s in the process of ramping up his hitting and running program, and is estimated to return in late May.
- Jared Koenig is expected to begin a throwing program today. He’s not expected to return until late May to early June.
The batting orders continue to cycle for the Brewers, as they will continue with their streak of not using the same lineup in two different games this season. Garrett Mitchell gets his second chance as the leadoff hitter tonight, with William Contreras and Brice Turang batting second and third. Tyler Black is batting cleanup as the DH with Jake Bauers behind him fifth. Brandon Lockridge, Sal Frelick, David Hamilton, and Joey Ortiz round out the lineup.
First pitch is scheduled for 6:40 p.m. on Brewers.TV and the Brewers Radio Network.
