Brewers' Jake Bauers: Back in action Friday
Bauers (abdomen) will start at first base and bat third in Friday's contest versus the Twins.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Hopeful to return Friday
Manager Pat Murphy said that Bauers (abdomen) was available to come off the bench in an emergency Thursday versus the Pirates, and the team is hopeful that he'll play Friday against the Twins, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Bauers missed the final three games of Milwaukee's four-game set against Pittsburgh after suffering an abdominal injury Monday, but it appears his time on the sidelines is nearing its end. The 30-year-old has continued to be one of the Brewers' most productive bats during the second half, slashing .286/.386/.469 with two homers, five RBI, 12 runs scored and two steals in 16 games since the break.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Remains out of lineup
Bauers (abdomen) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Pirates.
It will be the third straight day out of the lineup for Bauers, who is dealing with abdominal soreness. He remains day-to-day for the time being, and it's unclear whether Bauers will be available off the bench Thursday. Andrew Vaughn will be at first base and Luis Lara will play right field for the Brewers on Thursday.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Not in Wednesday's lineup
Bauers (abdomen) is not in the Brewers' starting lineup against the Pirates on Wednesday, Hunter Baumgardt of Fox Sports 920 Milwaukee reports.
Bauers is recovering from abdominal soreness, which will keep him out of the lineup for a second consecutive game. He did some on-field work Wednesday and is considered day-to-day, so he could be back in the lineup for Thursday's series finale against Pittsburgh.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Could remain out Wednesday
Manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that Bauers' abdominal soreness could keep him out during Wednesday's game against the Pirates, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.
Murphy noted that Bauers suffered the injury while diving into home during Monday's contest. The team doesn't believe the issue is serious enough to warrant imaging, but he may still miss a second straight game Wednesday as a precaution. As long as Bauers is out, Andrew Vaughn will get opportunities to start at first base, and Luis Lara will continue to see consistent time in the outfield.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Scratched with abdominal soreness
Bauers was scratched from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates due to abdominal soreness, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Bauers has recorded at least one hit in each of his last nine games, but the Brewers will be without his services for at least Tuesday's contest. Andrew Vaughn will step in as Milwaukee's new starting first baseman and could be in line for more starts if Bauers' injury keeps him out beyond Tuesday.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Reaches 20-homer mark
Bauers went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Angels.
The blast was Bauers' 20th of the campaign, and this is the first season he's reached that mark. He has gone 11-for-25 (.440) with two homers and five RBI over his last seven games. Through 100 contests on the year, he's batting .269 with an .878 OPS, 64 RBI, 66 runs scored, 16 doubles, two triples and eight stolen bases. Bauers is currently playing through a fractured big toe on his right foot, but it doesn't appear that the injury will cost him much playing time.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Clubs three-run homer
Bauers went 2-for-4 with three-run homer and an additional run scored in Friday's victory over the Angels.
The 30-year-old broke the game open during the fifth inning with a three-run blast to right field that doubled Milwaukee's lead to 6-0. The homer ends a 13-game power drought for Bauers, who had just two extra-base hits, three steals, one RBI and eight runs during that span. He continued his breakout campaign in July, finishing the month with a .262/.364/.476 slash line, four home runs, 13 RBI and 16 runs in 25 contests.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Checking back in lineup Wednesday
Bauers (toe) will start at first base and bat third in Wednesday's game against the Giants.
Bauers was diagnosed with a fractured right big toe after fouling a ball off of himself Monday, but he apparently needed just a day off in Tuesday's 8-2 win to improve enough to re-enter the starting nine. The 30-year-old acknowledged Tuesday that he'll still be managing some pain with the toe moving forward, so it wouldn't be surprising if the Brewers ended up building in more off days for him and/or using him at first base more frequently than the corner outfield. The toe issue may also result in Bauers being less active in the running game, where he's contributed eight stolen bases in nine attempts through 97 contests this season.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: IL stint unlikely
MRI and CT scan results confirmed Tuesday that the fracture in Bauers' right big toe is an old injury, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
X-rays picked up a fracture in Bauers' toe following his exit from Monday's contest, but it turned out to be an old injury that he had been playing through and aggravated when he fouled a ball off his foot. He said Tuesday that he doesn't expect to spend time on the injured list, and his availability going forward will come down to pain management. The Brewers will keep him on the bench to begin Tuesday's contest, giving Andrew Vaughn the start at first base and deploying Luis Lara in right field, but Bauers could be available off the bench.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Diagnosed with fractured toe
X-rays revealed a fracture in Bauers' right big toe after Monday's game against the Giants, Hunter Baumgardt of Fox Sports 920 Milwaukee reports.
Bauers fouled a ball off his foot during the fifth inning of Monday's contest and was later removed in the seventh. He's scheduled to undergo additional imaging Tuesday to help determine next steps and whether a stint on the IL is necessary. As long as Bauers is out, Andrew Vaughn is likely to start regularly at first base, and Luis Lara also figures to see an uptick in playing time in the outfield.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Swipes bag in win
Bauers went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, an RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 11-2 win over the Rockies.
Bauers has multiple hits and a steal in back-to-back contests. Prior to this recent burst of productivity, he had gone just 4-for-30 over a 10-game span from July 11-24. The 30-year-old is picking up steady time in right field in the absence of Sal Frelick (shoulder), though Bauers moves to first base when Andrew Vaughn is on the bench. Bauers is batting .263 with an .855 OPS, 18 home runs, eight steals, 60 RBI, 62 runs scored, 16 doubles and one triple over 96 contests this season.

Brewers' Jake Bauers: Hammers homer Thursday
Bauers went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run, an additional run and a walk in Thursday's 8-4 victory over the Cardinals.
Bauers had the biggest hit of the night for Milwaukee, clubbing a three-run blast in the third inning to extend the lead to 6-0. The long ball was his 17th of the campaign, which is already a career-high mark after he went deep 12 times in three separate previous seasons. Bauers has been a pleasant first-half surprise for the Brewers and fantasy managers alike, as his .873 OPS ranks 18th in the league and his 57 RBI are tied for 23rd.

The first baseman is hitting .265 (13-for-49) over his last 15 contests, but he's also struck out 21 times in that span, as he's started to swing and miss more frequently. Overall, he's hitting .269 with an .864 OPS, 15 home runs, 52 RBI, 50 runs scored, 13 doubles, one triple and five stolen bases across 77 contests as a regular in the lineup for much of the campaign.
