Walker is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Walker will be withheld from the starting lineup for Game 162 against Jack Flaherty and the Cardinals. Jonathan Villar draws the start at the keystone in his stead, batting second. After a strong showing following his late-season acquisition (125 wRC+ in 38 games), the Brewers will surely make a push to re-sign Walker this offseason.

Walker is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs. Walker struck out in four of his five at-bats during Saturday's dramatic extra-innings victory over the Cubs and will be stationed on the bench as the Brewers face off against southpaw Jose Quintana. Hernan Perez draws the start at second base and will bat leadoff.

Walker is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates. Walker heads to the bench following two straight starts as Hernan Perez moves over to the keystone for the series finale. Since joining Milwaukee on Aug. 12, Walker has slashed .267/.394/.467 with four home runs and 13 RBI.

Walker is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins. Walker played hero during Friday's win over the Marlins, slugging a grand slam in the eighth inning of that contest. Despite his recent success, he'll open the game on the bench for the second consecutive day as the Brewers are facing off against Marlins southpaw Dillon Peters. Hernan Perez will again draw the start at second base and bat leadoff in his stead.

Walker is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins. Walker will give way to Hernan Perez at second base against lefty Adam Conley, as he did the last two times the Brewers faced southpaws. The switch-hitting Walker has fared far better from the left side of the plate this season and will likely continue to play primarily against righties over the remainder of the season.

That's up by $200k from 2017. Highly unlikely to impact the #Brewers. Walker played under QO last year; can't be of… https://t.co/QBYqXKcdKz
