underwent concu sion testing following the Brewers 5-4 win over the Reds today, after the star catcher was involved with a collision with on the games final play. Fairchild was thrown out at home plate trying to Russell Westbrook Jersey score from second base on a single, and Contreras was down on the ground for a few moments after being clipped by Fairchilds forearm. Placement on the concu sion-related injured list would keep Contreras out of action for a minimum of seven days, though it isnt yet clear if an IL stint is under consideration. It probably seems likely that he wont be in Mondays lineup for precautionary reasons, and the Brewers can only hope that the star catcher has avoided any kind of head injury. Contreras had two more hits today to raise his season-long slash line to .305/.367/.467 over 316 plate appearances, for an outstanding 137 wRC+ and 2.6 fWAR (17th in all of baseball). More from around the NL Central From one Contreras brother to another, as speedy recovery from forearm surgery might take another quick step with a minor league rehab a signment. Cardinals manager told Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat ( ) and other reporters that Contreras might begin play at one of the teams affiliates as early as Tuesday, if not nece sarily Triple-A Memphis. Contreras hasnt played since May 7 when his left forearm was fractured by a swing, and he has made remarkable progre s considering the 10-week timeline initially projected after his surgery.

While the Pirates havent gotten much from their relief corps this season, GM Ben Cherington said the team wont change its lower-cost approach to finding bullpen help. In his weekly radio appearance on 93.7FM (hat tip to ), said were going to keep taking shots on le s-proven guys who have pitch qualities that we believe can translate to major league succe sand over time, were gonna hit on enough of those and its gonna add up to a good bullpen . These pitchers could come from both outside the organization and from within Pittsburghs own farm system. If Cheringtons tactics seem limited, it should be noted that virtually every team in baseball tries the same methods, given how reliever performance can vary so greatly from season to season and how unheralded pitchers emerge every season to become ace bullpen arms. This past winter actually saw the Bucs deviate from their usual plan by signing to a one-year, $10.5MM deal, though Chapmans shaky performance has led to a lot of second-gue sing on that acquisition.
