Brewers Battered by Injuries, Young Talent Steps Up

It's March 28th.

You're listening to Milwaukee Brewer's news today, AI Power Coverage of Your Team.

I'm Cory with the story.

The Milwaukee Brewer's rolled through spring training healthy, but now they're getting

slammed by injuries right out the gate.

First baseman Andrew Vaughn landed on the 10-day injured list on March 28th with a fractured

left-ha'mate bone, expected to miss 4-6 weeks.

He's the second starter sideline in 3 days.

After outfielder Jackson Churrio went down on March 26th with a fractured third metacarpal

in.

His left hand.

Vaughn got hurt on a swing during their opening day blowout win over the Chicago White

Sox on March 26th, a 14-to-2 route at American, family field.

Churrio's came from getting plunked by a pitch.

To fill the gap, they called up captured Jefferson Quarrow from Tribal A Nashville to the 26-man

roster.

Vaughn was a beast last year after the trade from the White Sox, hitting 3-8 with nine

homers in 64 games, then crushing it in the playoffs against the Cubs.

Fans and the team feel the sting, with manager Pat Murphy noting it hits two of their top five

right handed bats hard.

Jake Bauer steps up at first base, and Gary Sanchez might spell him against lefties.

Quarrow's got a greedy backstory, battling shoulder surgeries in the minors, but ready

for his big league shot at age 23.

Meanwhile, right hander Quinn Priester threw a solid bullpen session, pain free, eyeing

a May return to the rotation.

The brewers are shuffling the line up early, but with young talent stepping up and Priester

trending right, they could turn this rough start into fuel.

For another strong run.
