Imaging on Trevino's right hand came back negative Saturday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

After taking a foul tip off his right hand during Friday's contest, Trevino will avoid the injured list, as a CT scan revealed no fracture. The 32-year-old backstop will be thrust into a significant role for the first few weeks of the regular season while Tyler Stephenson works his way back from an oblique strain.

Turang was scratched from the lineup for Saturday's spring game against the Athletics due to right shoulder fatigue, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Turang's removal from the lineup was said by the Brewers to be precautionary, and it doesn't appear the injury is a long-term concern. He could sit for a couple days to aid his recovery, but the issue shouldn't impact his availability for Opening Day. Turang appeared in 155 regular-season games in 2024 and slashed .254/.316/.349 with 50 stolen bases, seven home runs and 50 RBI over 619 plate appearances.

Myers was removed from Saturday's game against the Angels with left oblique discomfort, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Myers was grabbing at his left side before leaving the game alongside a trainer in the second inning. It remains to be seen how severe his injury is, but the Brewers will likely take a look at him in the clubhouse and provide an update in the near future. If Myers would need to spend time on the injured list to begin the season, Tyler Alexander would be the most likely candidate to join Milwaukee's Opening Day rotation.

Riley (hand) will start at third base and bat second in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Twins.

Riley was forced to make an early exit from Friday's contest after getting hit on the right hand by a pitch, but no damage was done and he's right back in the lineup a day later. The 27-year-old has had a very successful spring so far, going 8-for-26 with two RBI and two runs scored over 11 games.

Turang was scratched from the lineup ahead of Saturday's Cactus League game against the Athletics.

It's currently unknown why Turang was removed from Milwaukee's starting nine, but the team should offer some clarity shortly. In the meantime, Cooper Pratt will take over at shortstop and bat ninth.

Strahm (shoulder) began playing catch from 75 feet Saturday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

Strahm said he no longer has any pain in his left shoulder, and he was cleared to begin throwing after visiting a doctor Saturday. He's set to extend his throwing distance Sunday, but it's still unclear if he'll have enough time to build up to game readiness before Opening Day.

Arraez went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run and a stolen base in Friday's Cactus League win over Texas.

Arraez is swinging a hot bat this spring, batting .433 over 30 at-bats. He did a couple things Friday that are out of the norm for him, as he both hit a homer and stole a base. Arraez had just four long balls and nine thefts over 672 regular-season plate appearances last year, which are reasons why he's often taken outside of the top 150 in fantasy drafts. That said, Arraez is as dependable as it gets when it comes to providing elite batting average, as evidenced by his run of three consecutive batting titles.

The Marlins placed Nardi on the 60-day injured list Saturday with lower-back inflammation.

A setback in Nardi's recovery from a lower-back injury has kept him shut down from throwing since March 5. His status for Opening Day had been in question, but moving to the 60-day IL will ensure he remains out until at least late May. His roster spot will be filled by Seth Martinez, who was claimed off waivers from the Mariners on Saturday.

The Marlins claimed Martinez off waivers from Seattle on Saturday.

Less than two weeks after moving from Miami to Seattle via waiver claim, Martinez will now head right back to Miami. The 30-year-old righty allowed four runs in just two-thirds of an inning during his lone appearance of the spring but his career 3.93 ERA should give him a good chance of sticking around in the Marlins' bullpen. Andrew Nardi (back) was placed on the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Mears (illness) may not be ready for the start of the regular season, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Mears returned to Brewers camp Thursday after spending several days fighting off an illness, losing nearly 10 pounds in the process. He made three appearances in the Cactus League before getting sick, but Hogg relays that it will be difficult for Mears to get all of his necessary work in before the end of camp.
