Brewers' Aaron Ashby: Fights control in loss
Ashby (0-2) took the loss Wednesday as the Brewers were downed 2-0 by the Phillies, giving up two runs on two hits and five walks over five innings. He struck out three.
The southpaw was recalled from Triple-A Nashville earlier in the day but had trouble finding the plate, tossing 49 of 91 pitches for strikes, and Ashby eventually paid for the free passes in the fifth inning when Garrett Stubbs led off the frame with a walk before Nick Castellanos clubbed a two-run homer. With Robert Gasser (elbow) the latest Milwaukee pitcher to land on the IL, Ashby figures to get multiple turns in the rotation. He lines up to make his next outing at home early next week against the Blue Jays.

Brewers' Robert Gasser: Headed for second opinion
Gasser is traveling to Los Angeles to receive a second opinion on his injured left elbow from Dr. Neal ElAttrache, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Gasser was placed on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a left flexor strain, but the pitcher and the Brewers are still trying to get a better handle on his diagnosis and treatment options. More information on a potential timetable for Gasser could be available later this week.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Sitting against righty Wednesday
Bauers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.
Bauers will take a seat for the second day in a row, this time against a right-handed pitcher (Aaron Nola) after his absence from the lineup for Tuesday's 2-1 loss came while southpaw Cristopher Sanchez started for Philadelphia. Though he's been playing more often than not against right-handed pitching of late, Bauers is slashing just .176/.276/.314 over his last 15 games and could begin to lose out on starts more frequently if he fails to right the ship.

Brewers' Tobias Myers: Returns to majors
The Brewers recalled Myers from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.
Myers should be available out of the bullpen beginning with Wednesday's game against the Phillies, but he might be needed to make some starts while the Brewers are without multiple rotation members. The rookie right-hander holds a 5.40 ERA and 27:10 K:BB over 26.2 innings for Milwaukee, covering six starts and one relief appearance.

Brewers' Aaron Ashby: Recalled ahead of start
The Brewers recalled Ashby from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.
He will draw the start Wednesday in Philadelphia, taking the rotation spot of the injured Robert Gasser (elbow). Ashby was knocked around in his lone previous start with Milwaukee this season back on April 8 in Cincinnati, and though he's struggled on the whole at Nashville this season (6.80 ERA, 1.99 WHIP in 43.2 innings), he fired seven shutout frames in his most recent outing last Friday. Ashby could be needed for multiple turns through the rotation with Gasser likely to be out for a while.

Brewers' Janson Junk: Sent to Triple-A
The Brewers optioned Junk to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.
Junk was called up from Triple-A on Saturday but didn't make any appearances out of the Milwaukee bullpen before being sent back to Nashville. He's made some starts with Nashville this season and could be thrust into the rotation as he rejoins the affiliate after the Brewers recalled two of Triple-A club's starters (Aaron Ashby and Tobias Myers) on Wednesday.

Brewers' Robert Gasser: Placed on IL with flexor strain
The Brewers placed Gasser on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a left flexor strain.
Initial testing on Gasser's left elbow provided encouraging results, but a second opinion evidently revealed the strain. It's not clear at this point how much time the rookie southpaw might miss, but he'll almost certainly miss more than the minimum 15 days. Gasser has been a bright spot for Milwaukee this season, posting a 2.57 ERA and 16:1 K:BB over 28 frames covering five starts.

Brewers' Colin Rea: Goes four innings in bulk relief
Rea didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Phillies, allowing four hits and two walks over four scoreless innings. He struck out two.
Rea entered in the second inning after Jared Koenig opened the game with 1.1 scoreless frames. Rea would manage to hold the Phillies off the board for four innings, though he'd need 70 pitches to record 12 outs. It's the second time so far this year that Rea's worked behind an opener. Overall, he's 4-2 with a 3.53 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 44:23 K:BB across 63.2 innings. Rea's currently in line for a road matchup with the Tigers on Sunday, though it's unclear if he'll work as a traditional starter or in a bulk role again.

Brewers' Aaron Ashby: Starting Wednesday
The Brewers will recall Ashby from Triple-A Nashville to start Wednesday's game versus the Phillies, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
With Robert Gasser (elbow) potentially facing a stint on the injured list, the Brewers will promote Ashby from Triple-A to fill the open slot in their rotation. Ashby was brought up for a spot start in early April, during which he allowed four earned runs in just 3.2 innings while striking out two batters and walking two. He hasn't been much better in the minors so far, posting a 6.80 ERA and 1.99 WHIP through 43.2 innings, though he threw seven shutout frames during his most recent outing with Nashville.

Brewers' Aaron Ashby: Could start Wednesday vs. Phillies
Ashby joined the Brewers' taxi squad in Philadelphia and could be formally called up from Triple-A Nashville to start or work as a bulk reliever in Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Ashby appears poised to slide into the rotation spot that belonged to Robert Gasser, who is awaiting a second opinion on his sore elbow and is expected to land on the 15-day injured list and miss out on at least a couple of starts. In his lone start for Milwaukee this season back on April 9 in Cincinnati, Ashby was blitzed for eight runs (four earned) in 3.2 innings. Upon returning to Nashville after that game, Ashby continued to struggle in his subsequent seven outings at Triple-A (9.54 ERA, 2.54 WHIP and 30:30 K:BB in 26.1 innings), but he's righted the ship over his past two starts. He delivered his best performance of the season in his most recent of the two starts Friday versus Memphis, striking out five over seven scoreless frames while allowing two hits and three walks. With Gasser set to go on the shelf and the Brewers still waiting on Joe Ross (back), Jakob Junis (shoulder) and DL Hall (knee) to return from the IL, Ashby could be in store for multiple turns through the rotation if he fares reasonably well Wednesday.

Brewers' Jakob Junis: Beginning rehab outings
Junis (shoulder/head) will begin his minor-league rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Nashville, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Reports.
The righty has been on the shelf since April 6 due to a right shoulder impingement and had his return timeline pushed back further after he was stretchered off the field April 22 when he was struck in the head by a foul ball in batting practice. After resuming his throwing program a few weeks ago, Junis reported to the Brewers' spring complex in Arizona last week and checked out fine after facing hitters. He'll likely require multiple rehab outings to build up his pitch count and potentially put himself in consideration for a spot in Milwaukee's rotation.

Brewers' Robert Gasser: Initial MRI encouraging
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that Gasser (elbow) might miss some time but that the first MRI looked "pretty normal," Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
The left-hander will receive a second opinion for the tightness and soreness in his elbow, but the initial imaging results are encouraging. Gasser still seems unlikely to avoid a stint on the injured list given it's an elbow issue, but the Brewers have yet to make an official roster move.

Brewers' Sal Frelick: On bench Tuesday
Frelick is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Philadelphia.
Frelick will avoid lefty Cristopher Sanchez on Tuesday, giving way to Jackson Chourio in right field. Frelick is slashing .253/.335/.333 with a pair of homers and seven stolen bases on the year.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Taking seat Tuesday
Bauers is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.
As per usual, Bauers will ride the pine with the Brewers facing a left-handed pitcher. Rhys Hoskins will play first while Gary Sanchez fills the DH spot.

Brewers' Brice Turang: Idle against lefty
Turang is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.
Turang will dodge a matchup with southpaw Cristopher Sanchez on Tuesday, joining fellow lefties Jake Bauers and Sal Frelick on the bench. Andruw Monasterio will play second and bat ninth.

Brewers' Colin Rea: Set to work behind opener Tuesday
Rea is expected to pitch in bulk relief behind opening pitcher Jared Koenig in Tuesday's game against the Phillies in Philadelphia, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.
Koenig is expected to receive his second opener assignment in as many days after he needed just five pitches to retire the Phillies' top three hitters in Monday's 3-1 win. Look for Koenig to work no more than an inning or two Tuesday before turning the game over to Rea, who previously worked behind Koenig on May 25 in Boston. The arrangement ended up working out well for Rea's fantasy managers, as he picked up the win against the Red Sox that day while allowing two runs and striking out two batters over 5.2 innings.
