• Brewers' Keston Hiura: Headed back to Triple-A

  10/02/2021 •

  Hiura was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday. Hiura was recalled to the big-league club Thursday, so his promotion was short-lived. He started one of two games during his time with the club and collected one hit and drove in one across four at-bats. The move will end a disappointing campaign for Hiura, as he hit just .168/.256/.301 across 197 plate appearances for Milwaukee and also spent a large portion of his season in Nashville.

  Hiura was recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Thursday. Hiura has been in the minors since mid-August, and he slashed .150/.274/.280 with three home runs, four doubles, 10 RBI and eight runs across 31 games since his demotion. The 25-year-old has hit .166 across 59 major-league appearances this year and should serve as a depth option heading into the final series of the regular season.

• Brewers' Keston Hiura: Activated at Triple-A level

  08/17/2021 •

  Hiura was activated from the COVID-19 list at Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday. It's been a frustrating year for Hiura, but he's at least now through his two-week COVID-related absence. There doesn't appear to be a role available for him at the major-league level at the moment, but he'll at least now be able to get back into game action in the minors.

• Brewers' Keston Hiura: On COVID IL at Triple-A

  08/03/2021 •

  Hiura is on the COVID-19 injured list at Triple-A Nashville. He has not appeared in a game since being optioned to Triple-A on July 30. There was no room for him to get playing time on the big-league roster, particularly after the acquisitions of Rowdy Tellez and Eduardo Escobar, so he shouldn't be expected to return to the majors anytime soon.

• Brewers' Keston Hiura: Demoted again

  07/30/2021 •

  Hiura was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Friday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Hiura didn't have an everyday role in the time since his latest call-up in late June and didn't look great at the plate, striking out 39.4 percent of the time while slashing a passable but unexciting .230/.324/.443. The acquisition of Eduardo Escobar means his role was expected to shrink still further down the stretch, so he'll head to the minors in search of regular at-bats. He has very little to prove at the Triple-A level, however, hitting .347/.434/.691 there in 77 career games.
