Tatis exited after four innings in Tuesday's 10-4 loss to the Athletics due to left shoulder discomfort, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Tatis appeared uncomfortable following a swing on his second at-bat of the game in the second inning, though he stayed in the contest for one more at-bat (which resulted in a flyout) before he was pulled from the contest. After the game, manager Mike Shildt characterized the issue as left shoulder discomfort, though he added that the star outfielder was "checking out medically" and that the team "erred on the side of caution" in removing him. Nonetheless, it's possible that Tatis will have to miss time due to the issue, and more should be known about the injury after the team further evaluates him. Tatis has had problems with his left shoulder in the past, though he's been mostly clear of the issue since undergoing surgery to repair a torn labrum in the shoulder in September 2022.

Contreras went 1-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 7-1 win over Colorado.

Contreras first drove in Jackson Chourio on a single in the third inning, and he later smacked his first homer of the season in the seventh inning to put the Brewers in front 7-1. The star backstop is still slashing just .143/.286/.229 with two RBI over 42 plate appearances so far, but he does have six runs scored and seven walks through his first 10 outings.

Yelich went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 7-1 win over Colorado.

Yelich went back-to-back with William Contreras for a solo blast in the seventh inning, giving the Brewers a 6-1 lead. It's still been a sluggish start at the dish by Yelich, who's slashing .139/.279/.306 with two long balls and six RBI through 43 plate appearances, but the star left fielder does have two stolen bases already this year.

Matsui allowed one run on two hits with a strikeout in an inning Tuesday against Athletics. He has a 1.80 ERA with nine strikeouts and two walks in five innings.

Matsui is working in middle relief but could be used in higher-leverage roles if he can continue his high strikeout totals and limit his walks. After striking out 12 batters per nine innings during his 10-year career in Japan, Matsui's K rate dipped after moving to the States. His 26.8 percent strikeout rate during the regular season last year was still above league average, but Matsui's 10.5 percent walk rate likely prevented possible ascension to higher-leverage work.

Doyle went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-1 loss to Milwaukee.

Doyle took Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta yard for a solo blast in the first inning to score the Rockies' only run Tuesday, and he also stole his first base of 2025 in the fifth frame. Over 44 at-bats (10 games) to open the season, Doyle is batting a productive .273 with two homers, two doubles, six RBI and five runs scored.

Wheeler didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's loss to Atlanta. He gave up five runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out seven across 5.1 innings.

Wheeler fell behind when he gave up a three-run homer to Sean Murphy in the second inning. Wheeler was able to settle in and fanned five batters over the next three scoreless frames before being tagged for two more runs in the sixth inning. He allowed five hits over his first two starts, but he gave up eight hits Tuesday and was unable to escape the sixth inning despite tossing 104 pitches (71 strikes). Wheeler has started the season with a 3.44 ERA and 0.98 WHIP and leads the National League with 25 strikeouts. He's slated to face the Cardinals on the road in the series finale Sunday, when he'll look to register his second win of 2025.

Wood went 3-for-4 with two home runs, five RBI and a walk in Tuesday's win over the Dodgers.

Wood got started early with a two-run shot in the first inning. He drew a bases-loaded walk in the second before bashing another two-run shot in the fourth. He's up to four home runs this season, including three over his last two games. Wood is slashing .275/.356/.625 with six extra-base hits and 10 RBI through 11 games.

Castellanos went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two RBI in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to Atlanta.

Castellanos got the Phillies on the board with an RBI single in the first inning, and he drove in his second run of the game in the third frame on a double to center field. The 33-year-old outfielder has started the 2025 season slashing .314/.385/.571 with four walks, three doubles, two home runs and seven RBI across 39 plate appearances.

Lord allowed two hits and two walks over three scoreless innings in a no-decision Tuesday. He struck out four during the win over the Dodgers.

Lord was given the nod in a spot start and turned in a solid appearance. He needed 55 pitches (33 strikes) to get through three frames, but he avoided danger and kept the Dodgers off the board. Lord now owns a 1.80 ERA with a 4:4 K:BB through five innings this season. He's currently lined up to start in Pittsburgh next week.

Schwarber went 3-for-3 with a solo home run and drove in two additional runs in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to Atlanta.

Schwarber was able to log a rare triple Tuesday -- his first since 2023 and 13th of his major-league career -- which drove in two runs in the third, and on his next at-bat he took Chris Sale deep for a 462-foot moonshot to center field. Schwarber has started the season slashing .324/.444/.811 with six walks, five home runs and 11 RBI across 45 plate appearances.
