Overview
- Milwaukee assigned Chourio to the 10-day injured list retroactive to Wednesday after an MRI confirmed a right hamstring strain.
- General manager Matt Arnold said the club will take a cautious approach and does not anticipate Chourio missing more than the 10-day minimum.
- Outfielder Brandon Lockridge, acquired from the Padres at Thursday’s trade deadline, was added to the active roster in a corresponding move.
- Chourio had slashed .276/.311/.474 with 17 home runs, 67 RBIs and 18 stolen bases in 106 games while leading the National League with 445 at-bats.
- The roster adjustment maintains outfield depth and supports the Brewers’ bid to stay atop the NL Central during Chourio’s brief absence.
