Brewers: How close is Luis Urias to playing in a game?

When the Milwaukee Brewers traded for infielder Luis Urias, the team expected him to compete for the starting shortstop role with Orlando Arcia. However, he’s spent Spring Training watching drills instead of participating in them due to having suffered a fractured hamate bone in his left wrist over the winter.

Urias has been cleared to begin baseball activities and he should be able to appear in games shortly.

How was Urias acquired?

Urias came to the Brewers with Eric Lauer from the San Diego Padres in exchange for Zach Davies and Trent Grisham.
