Brewers' Sal Frelick: Team optimistic about injury
Rotowire
The Brewers don't believe Frelick suffered an oblique strain, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Frelick was grimacing in pain after his fourth-inning single in the second game of Saturday's twin bill, and after a visit from the training staff, he exited the contest with what was described as left side tightness. However, the Brewers don't seem to think it's a new injury; Frelick had been dealing with pain in that area coming into Saturday. Testing will likely be needed to confirm the extent of the issue, but he should be considered day-to-day for now.

Brewers' Sal Frelick: Comes off IL
Rotowire
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.
