Overview

  • Milwaukee put José Quintana on the 15-day injured list with a left calf strain after he tested the injury, effectively shelving him for the rest of the regular season.
  • Manager Pat Murphy said Trevor Megill’s right flexor strain recovery “is not checking out medically,” leaving the All-Star closer’s timetable uncertain after an Aug. 27 IL placement.
  • Megill, who has 30 saves with a 2.54 ERA, has had recent throwing sessions scaled back, with Murphy emphasizing that his health takes priority and that pushing through in October is not recommended.
  • Right-handed reliever Nick Mears was reinstated from the 15-day injured list to fill the active roster spot opened by Quintana’s move.
  • Left-hander Robert Gasser logged 2 2/3 scoreless rehab innings at Triple-A Nashville and could be used in a multi-inning role, while Chad Patrick impressed with a three-strikeout inning on Tuesday.
