Rotowire
Frelick went 3-for-8 with a walk and two RBI across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Cubs.

Brewers' Sal Frelick: Checking back into starting nine
Rotowire

Rotowire
Frelick (knee) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in Atlanta but will be available off the bench, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Frelick will miss a third straight start due to soreness in his left knee. It sounds like he could be back in the lineup as soon as Wednesday, but with a team off day looming Thursday, the Brewers might opt to hold Frelick out of action until Friday, when they begin a homestand.
Frelick (knee) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta.
Frelick will take a seat for the second day in a row, after he was removed from Saturday's 8-2 win over the Nationals as a precaution when he experienced soreness in his surgically repaired left knee. According to MLB.com, the Brewers are looking into long-term solutions for Frelick to treat his knee, but he's expected to avoid a stint on the injured list and move past the issue after a few days of rest. Brandon Lockridge will draw another start in right field Monday in place of Frelick.

Brewers' Sal Frelick: Removed with sore knee
Rotowire
Frelick was removed from Saturday's game against the Nationals due to left knee soreness.
The Brewers are labeling Frelick's removal as precautionary, which could signal that his injury is relatively minor. If the 25-year-old ends up having to miss any amount of time, Brandon Lockridge would be the likely choice to pick up starts in right field.
The Brewers activated Frelick (hamstring) off the 10-day injured list Saturday.
Frelick suffered a Grade 1 left hamstring strain in the Brewers' final game before the All-Star break, so he'll end up missing only seven games due to the extra time off. Blake Perkins has been a near-everyday part of the Brewers' lineup while Frelick has been out, but the former will likely see a reduction in playing time now that the team's starting outfield is healthy. Tyler Black was optioned to the minors Saturday to make room for Frelick on the 26-man roster.
