Article: Brewers Outright Ray, Gustave and Severino Begin Rehab

[TL Schwerz]

The Milwaukee Brewers made a couple of procedural moves prior to action on Friday night. Former 5th overall pick from the 2016 draft, Corey Ray, was outrighted to Triple-A Nashville. Pitcher Jandel Gustave and catcher Pedro Severino also began rehab assignments with the Sounds.

Corey Ray made his Major League debut in April last year appearing in a single game for Milwaukee. The outright removes him from the 40-man roster, a disappointing development for a guy that was a former top 100 prospect. Playing through injuries this year, he’s struggled mightily at Triple-A.

Jandel Gustave has been out since mid-May with a hamstring injury. He’s pitched 13 innings for Milwaukee this season and has posted some of the best strikeout numbers in his career. Pedro Severino is getting game action in as his 80-game suspension after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance is nearing an end.

The Brewers roster shuffle will continue as Josh Hader is not with the team this weekend either.
