The Brewers continue to play without Sal Frelick, as he has been out since July 17.
This week, the Brewers announced the latest update on Frelick.
MLB.com wrote (on August 19): “Was in Milwaukee on Aug. 18 to work out with the Major League team before returning to the Minors to continue his rehab assignment. The Brewers want to see two pain-free days throwing before they consider adding Frelick back to the bigs.”
According to the site, he could return as soon as Friday.
Before getting hurt, Frelick had been batting .236 with 65 hits, four home runs, 34 RBIs, 33 runs and six stolen bases in 90 games.
He was picked in the 1st round of the 2021 MLB Draft.
The 26-year-old is in the middle of his fourth season at the MLB level (all with the Brewers).
Frelick would be a nice boost to the Brewers when he returns.
He won a Gold Glove Award during the 2024 season (when he was 24).
Looking At The Brewers Right Now
The Brewers are in the middle of a very strong 2026 season where they look like a team who can reach the World Series.
