Urias (hamstring) is expected to be reinstated from the 10-day injured list prior to Tuesday's game versus the Orioles, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Urias has been out for two months with a severe hamstring strain, but the infielder was able to start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville on May 24 and has apparently made a full recovery from the injury. The Brewers will need to make room on the 40-man roster in order to incorporate Urias, as he's currently on the 60-day injured list. Once active, Urias could settle back into a regular role at third base, but his playing time could become more infrequent when Willy Adames (concussion) likely returns from the 7-day injured list later in the week to make the Milwaukee infield more crowded.

Brewers' Luis Urias: Unlikely to return this week
Rotowire
Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Tuesday that Urias (hamstring) is likely to return early next week, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Urias began a minor-league rehab assignment last week and was eligible to return from the injured list ahead of Tuesday night's game in Toronto, but it sounds like the Brewers will keep him on the farm throughout their current road trip, which runs through next Monday. The 25-year-old infielder has been on the shelf since April 1 because of a severe hamstring strain.

Brewers' Luis Urias: Progressing in running program
Rotowire
Urias (hamstring) progressed to running at 50 percent Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
The 25-year-old landed on the shelf April 1 after he suffered a major hamstring strain Opening Day, and he should be nearing the halfway point in his recovery process. Urias will be eligible to be reinstated from the 60-day IL on May 31, though he clearly still has significant work to do in his rehab program.

Brewers' Luis Urias: Transferred to 60-day IL
Rotowire
Urias (hamstring) was transferred Tuesday from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Urias suffered a severe left hamstring strain in the Brewers' season opener March 30 against the Cubs. The initial timeline called for him to miss at least eight weeks, so this is mostly just a procedural move to clear out a 40-man roster spot.
Urias was placed on the injured list Saturday with a hamstring strain which could keep him out for eight weeks, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Urias suffered the injury on Opening Day, and it's evidently a fairly serious one. He's been given a timetable of six-to-eight weeks, with the Brewers expecting him to fall on the latter end of that range. Mike Brosseau will take over at third base Saturday, but Brian Anderson, who starts in right field, could wind up being the primary option against righties. That would open up more at-bats for Brewers outfielders, including Joey Wiemer, who was recalled to take Urias' spot on the roster.

Brewers' Luis Urias: Could head to injured list
Rotowire
Urias (hamstring) could be headed to the injured list, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Urias was removed Thursday with a left hamstring injury, and it has been reported that the Brewers will call up Joey Wiemer before Saturday's game against the Cubs. That would allow the Brewers to move Brian Anderson to third base while Wiemer would likely be the regular in right field. Should Urias be placed on the IL, he wouldn't be eligible to return until April 10, at the earliest.
Urias suffered a left hamstring injury Thursday versus the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
The Brewers expect to have an update on the third baseman either Friday or Saturday, so Urias could miss Game 2 of the season-opening series on Saturday. Urias went 0-for-4 on Opening Day.
Urias (head) will start at third base and bat fifth in Sunday's Cactus League game against the Diamondbacks.
Urias had been out of action the past two days after he experienced a bout of dizziness, but he was never diagnosed with a concussion and looks like he'll be good to go after a brief respite. Though he'll be making his first start of the spring at third base, Urias is projected to see most of his action at the keystone in 2023 after seeing five of his six Cactus League starts to date at that position.

Brewers' Luis Urias: Three-run homer in WBC loss
Rotowire
Urias hit a three-run homer during Monday's 6-5 loss for Team Mexico to Team Japan in the semifinals of the World Baseball Classic.
Urias swatted the homer with two runners aboard off an otherwise impressive Roki Sasaki to give Mexico a 3-0 lead in the fourth. The infielder played well in the tournament with a .278/.381/.444 slash with a homer and four RBI. With Mexico now eliminated, he'll head back to Arizona. He's expected to be a regular for the Brewers during the 2023 campaign.
