MILWAUKEE — When the Milwaukee Brewers take on the Los Angeles Dodgers at Miller Park, it’s a good bet that Hernan Perez will not only be in the lineup on Saturday afternoon but in left field filling in for injured Ryan Braun.
Perez, Milwaukee’s super-utility man, has seen a bulk of the action in left with Braun out, despite the presence of a bumper crop of top prospects patrolling the outfield at Triple-A Colorado Springs.
And manager Craig Counsell doesn’t expect that to change any time soon.
“I’ll tell you, Hernan Perez has been one of the best outfielders in the big leagues this year,” Counsell said.
