Brewers place Matt Bush on injured list, recall Jason Alexander

The Brewers made a roster move ahead of Tuesday night’s game against the Diamondbacks, placing reliever Matt Bush on the injured list and recalling swingman Jason Alexander.

Brewers roster move: Matt Bush to IL with non-COVID illness. Jason Alexander is active tonight.

The illness will bring a close to Bush’s first season with the Brewers. Milwaukee acquired him at the trade deadline after shipping Josh Hader to the Padres, and the expectation was that Bush’s live arm would be a reliable presence in a high-leverage role.
