The Brewers injury list has been growing. It got a little bigger last night when Hunter Renfroe left the game against the Padres early. After a MRI today, the Brewers decided to place Renfroe on the 10-day IL. As a corresponding move, Mark Mathias was selected from Nashville.
The loss of Renfroe is a tough one for the Brewers. He was one of the top players on offense with a .266/.303/.503 batting line, 123 wRC+, 9 home runs, 19 RBI, and 0.8 fWAR. It’s unsure how long he will need to recover, but being placed on the IL means it will be at least a week and a half.
