• Brewers' Christian Arroyo: Returns to action at Triple-A

  04/22/2024 • By RotoWire

  Arroyo (wrist) has gone 0-for-6 with two walks and two runs in two games since being reinstated from Triple-A Nashville's 7-day injured list Wednesday. The wrist injury ended any hope Arroyo had of winning a spot on the Brewers' Opening Day roster, but rather than exercising the opt-out clause in his minor-league contract, he elected to rehab the injury at the organization's facility in Arizona before making his season debut for Nashville. He'll stick around in Nashville with the hope of performing well enough to earn a promotion to Milwaukee.

• Brewers' Christian Arroyo: Not expected to opt out

  03/24/2024 • By RotoWire

  Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Sunday he doesn't expect Arroyo, who is dealing with a wrist injury, to exercise the opt-out in his minor-league contract, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Arroyo was reassigned to minor-league camp and has an opt-out in his deal this weekend, but it appears he plans to remain in the organization for now. Even though the 28-year-old won't be included on the Opening Day roster, it could pay off to stick around given the Brewers' only established infielders are Willy Adames and Rhys Hoskins.

• Brewers' Christian Arroyo: Getting look at third base

  02/22/2024 • By RotoWire

  Brewers manager Pat Murphy said recently that Arroyo will receive the bulk of his reps this spring at third base, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. He'll also be mixed in at first base. Arroyo is capable of playing both middle infield spots, as well, but it sounds like his focus will be on the corners, and he could even push for ample playing time at a third base spot that's wide open for the Brewers. Also competing for starts at the hot corner along with Arroyo will be Andruw Monasterio, Joey Ortiz, Tyler Black and Owen Miller. Milwaukee is also giving Sal Frelick some reps at third base, although it doesn't appear he's a real candidate for starts there, at least not initially.

  01/25/2024 • By RotoWire

  Arroyo signed a minor-league contract with the Brewers on Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training, Buster Olney of ESPN reports. The deal will be worth $1.5 million if he cracks the Opening Day roster, with another $500,000 possible in incentives. Arroyo is a career .252/.299/.394 hitter over parts of seven big-league seasons, most recently posting a disappointing .638 OPS in 2023 with the Red Sox. He can play all over the infield and also fill in at the corner outfield spots in a pinch.
