Cooper Pratt Reinstated to Brewers Lineup

Returning a rookie defensive shortstop to the big-league roster creates roster flexibility for ongoing rehab evaluations.

Overview

  • The Brewers reinstated 22-year-old Cooper Pratt from the 10-day injured list and put him back in the lineup after a one-game High-A rehab appearance.
  • Pratt made that rehab appearance for High-A Wisconsin on Tuesday and went 1-for-2 with a single and a sacrifice fly before being activated on Wednesday.
  • Milwaukee optioned outfielder Brandon Lockridge to Triple-A Nashville as the corresponding roster move to clear a spot for Pratt.
  • Utility player Jihwan Bae cleared outright waivers and was removed from the Brewers’ 40-man roster after a brief big-league stint while Pratt was injured.
  • Right fielder Sal Frelick remains on the injured list with a strained right shoulder and was sent to Triple-A Nashville for a two-game rehab evaluation to determine whether he can be activated soon.
