Milwaukee Brewers Adjust Roster: Anderson to Injured List
The Milwaukee Brewers have made moves in their roster, including placing reliever Grant Anderson on the 15-day injured list due to tendinitis in his right ankle.This announcement, issued on Monday, is retroactive to Sunday.
Simultaneously, the team has called up pitchers Easton McGee and Tobias Myers from Triple-A affiliate Nashville, and Chad Patrick has been optioned to Nashville. Brewers manager Pat Murphy also reported before Monday’s game against the Arizona Diamondbacks that outfielder Jackson Chourio is close to returning from the injured list, as he recovers from a right hamstring strain. Chourio, whose last appearance in the Major Leagues was on July 29, began a rehabilitation assignment on Friday.Anderson, 28, has participated in 57 games this season, with a 2-5 record and a 2.87 ERA. He has accumulated 66 strikeouts in 62 2/3 innings. McGee, 27, has an ERA of 7.36 with no decisions in seven appearances with Milwaukee. In 27 games with Nashville, he is 5-0 with an ERA of 3.57. Myers, also 27 years old, has a 1-1 record with a 3.90 ERA in 12 games with Milwaukee. In Nashville, he has a 2-6 record with a 3.77 ERA in 12 appearances. Patrick has a 3-8 record with a 3.60 ERA in Milwaukee, where he has been a starter in 20 of his 21 appearances. The 27-year-old was the starter on Sunday and struck out seven batters, allowing two runs in 5 1/3 innings, without getting a decision in the 4-3 loss against the San Francisco Giants.I don’t think it’s today or tomorrow, but I think we’re close.
