Brewers Lose Kolten Wong, Shake Up Bullpen

Kolten Wong has been a mainstay for Milwaukee this year playing in 52 games. His stint on the injured list was retroactive to June 8, and he’ll look to return for the Brewers as soon as possible. Posting a .700 OPS this season, he’s been exactly league average at the plate.

Milwaukee replaced Wong on the active roster by recalling second basemen Mark Mathias from Triple-A Nashville. Mathias made his Major League Debut during 2022 and has now played in four games for the Brewers this season. He’s got two hits in 11 at bats, one of which was a home run.

Alongside the middle infield moves, Milwaukee also swapped out a reliever. Right hander Luke Barker was sent back to Triple-A in favor of fellow right hander Peter Strzelecki. Strzelecki has seen action in two games for the Brewers this season, working three innings and allowing just a single run.
