    Hunter Renfroe has been out of action for Milwaukee since May 23 when he left the game in the 4th inning against the San Diego Padres. Renfroe returns to a .266/.303/.503 slash line along with a career best 123 OPS+. Through 39 games in Milwaukee, Renfroe has paid dividends to a Brewers lineup looking to stay atop the NL Central.

    After seeing so many pitchers hit the injured list over the past few weeks, the Brewers have to be excited about getting back one of their key offensive assets. While replacing names like Brandon Woodruff and Freddy Peralta may be impossible, mitigating their impact by scoring more runs is a decent strategy. Renfroe is playing right field and batting fifth tonight for Milwaukee.

    Trevor Gott's placement on the injured list is retroactive to June 6, and he's going down with a right groin strain. Gott has pitched 21 innings during his first season in Milwaukee, and he's posted a 3.86 ERA thus far. One of the better relievers in the Brewers bullpen, the hope would be that the time missed on the injured list is the minimum.
