Jake Bauers News: Struggling for playing time

Bauers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

He's started just one of the Brewers' last seven games, with the 29-year-old sitting against four left-handers and two right-handers during that stretch. While the ongoing absence of Garrett Mitchell (oblique) has opened up a spot in the outfield, Bauers hasn't been able to take advantage. Expect the Brewers continue to use a rotation of Bauers, Isaac Collins and Daz Cameron in left field until Mitchell's return pushes Jackson Chourio from center field back to left.
