An ankle injury has ruled out the Brewers’ shortstop Willy Adames for 10 days, the team revealed Wednesday. The change has taken effect on May 16.
Triple-A Nashville Sounds infielder Keston Hiura has joined the Milwaukee roster. During a sacrifice fly attempt, Adames was injured and had to leave Sunday’s game against Atlanta Braves.
Afterward, the runner hobbled away from the field in obvious discomfort. Stearns stated earlier in the week that an IL stay was still an option for Counsell, despite the fact that X-ray results were negative.
The daily shortstop job now goes to Luis Uras, since Adames has been sidelined with an injury. He’s started both of the team’s previous two games at shortstop, and he’ll start there once again on Wednesday.
