Jean Segura finished 3-for-4 with two RBI as the Brewers beat the Cardinals 6-4 on Saturday night.

Segura got the Brewers on the board with a two-run triple in the top of the third inning and also slapped two singles. He has an incredible .361/.404/.582 slash line through 170 plate appearances this season.

Marco Estrada yielded four earned runs in 5 2/3 innings Saturday in a no-decision against the Cardinals.

The Brewers won it in 10 innings, but no thanks to Estrada. He gave up seven hits and issued four walks while tallying only two strikeouts. The outing moved his ERA from 5.32 to 5.44 and his WHIP from 1.36 to 1.42. He will try to bounce back next week vs. Pittsburgh.

Wily Peralta was knocked around for seven runs (six earned) over five innings Friday in a loss to the Cardinals.

Peralta gave up five runs in the first inning, the big blow of which was a grand slam by David Freese. He hung in there for another four innings and finished with a season-high six strikeouts, but the damage was already done. With a 5.94 ERA through nine starts, he'll need to show more consistency to be trusted in fantasy leagues.
May 17 - 11:34 PM

Aramis Ramirez connected for a pair of three-run homers in Friday's loss to the Cardinals.

Ramirez did his best to keep the Brewers in the ballgame, but it ultimately wasn't enough to keep up with the Cardinals' offensive attack. The 34-year-old has already served a lengthy stint on the DL this season due to a knee injury, but if healthy he should be one of the most valuable fantasy third baseman once again.
May 17 - 11:34 PM

Hiram Burgos lost to the Pirates after allowing three runs in five innings on Thursday.

Burgos pitched pretty well in his first three starts last month, but he gave up 11 runs to the Reds on Saturday and he was pretty mediocre tonight. His next start is slated to come against the Dodgers on Tuesday, but it's possible he won't be in the rotation by then.
May 16 - 10:26 PM

Brewers purchased the contract of RHP Francisco Rodriguez from Triple-A Nashville.

K-Rod will join the Brewers on Thursday night in Pittsburgh. He allowed no runs and only one hit in four tune-up appearances in the minor leagues and should do fine as a setup man. The 31-year-old righty could eventually be tried at closer if Jim Henderson falters.
May 16 - 10:03 AM

Yovani Gallardo allowed just three hits and two runs over six innings Wednesday, but two of his four walks came back to bite him in a loss to the Pirates.

Gallardo got a strikeout after Starling Marte's leadoff double in the sixth, but he then walked a pair of batters and Neil Walker made him pay with a two-RBI single. The right-hander struck out five on the night and, all things considered, it was a nice showing in what has been an up-and-down year. He'll take a 4.50 ERA and 1.46 WHIP into next week's start against the Dodgers.
May 15 - 10:42 PM

Rickie Weeks launched a solo homer in Wednesday's loss to the Pirates.

Unfortunately for the Brewers, Weeks' blast was their lone tally on the night. The longball was the second baseman's first this month and just his third of the season. Weeks upped his average to a depressing .187 with the 1-for-3 showing.
May 15 - 10:13 PM

Brewers transferred INF Taylor Green from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.

It's a move made in order to clear 40-man roster space for Francisco Rodriguez. Green is out for the season after undergoing hip surgery last month.
May 15 - 10:10 PM

Brewers optioned C/INF Blake Lalli to Triple-A Nashville.

Lalli batted just .125/.125/.125 over 24 at-bats with the big club. He's being sent down in order to clear room for the arrival of Francisco Rodriguez.
May 15 - 10:09 PM

Chris Narveson (finger) threw a bullpen session over the weekend in Cincinnati and is scheduled for another one while the Brewers are in Pittsburgh.

The left-hander should be ready for a rehab assignment after that. Assuming all goes well, it sounds like Narveson might be ready to return before the end of the month.
May 15 - 7:30 PM

Corey Hart (knee) is unlikely to return from the disabled list on May 30 when first eligible.

Hart has begun running recently without assistance, but he's just not going to be far enough along in a couple weeks to be activated from the 60-day DL. The first baseman is more likely to return within the first couple weeks of June.
May 15 - 7:27 PM

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Brewers are calling up reliever Francisco Rodriguez.

Rodriguez's minor league deal required that the Brewers make a decision by Wednesday whether to add him the roster. The 31-year-old struck out seven over four scoreless innings in the minors and could work his way into the late innings for Milwaukee.
May 15 - 3:44 PM

Ryan Braun went 3-for-6 with two doubles as the Brewers lost to the Pirates in extra innings on Tuesday.

Braun sat out Monday's game with neck tightness, an issue that has plagued him off and on through the early part of the season, but he was back in the lineup producing on Tuesday. The neck issue is something he may continue to deal with as the season progresses, but he's been able to play through it for the most part thus far. It's something to monitor, but it's no reason to downgrade Braun for the time being.
May 15 - 12:38 AM

Kyle Lohse allowed two runs over 5 2/3 innings of a no-decision against the Pirates on Tuesday.

Lohse was in line for the win before John Axford blew the one-run lead in the eighth inning. The right-hander wasn't terribly sharp on the night, allowing five hits and five walks, but he still did his part to limit the damage to just two runs. He'll continue the search for his second win Sunday in St. Louis against his former squad.
