Arcia will start at shortstop and bat seventh Tuesday against the Padres.

The Brewers have deemed Arcia big-league ready and will slot him in against Luis Perdomo in his major league debut, as Jonathan Villar transitions to third base. Arcia, 21, hit .267/.320/.403 with eight homers and 15 stolen bases in 100 games with Triple-A Colorado Springs this season, against competition that was (on average) more than five years older than him. The team seems content to let Arcia learn on the job and gain valuable experience over the remainder of the season.
