  • Brewers' Yhonathan Barrios: Heads back to minors

    Barrios (shoulder) was reassigned to minor-league camp Wednesday.

    This comes as no surprise, as the fireballer is still in the midst of recovering from the shoulder surgery he underwent last April. Barrios expects to be out for another month or so, but he could push for a major league bullpen spot if he can get back to his previous form.

  • Brewers' Yhonathan Barrios: Expected out for another month

    Barrios (shoulder) said that he was "at least two months away from completing his rehab" back in mid-February, Brian Bergner of the Associated Press reports.

    Although this timetable means that he likely won't be ready for the start of the regular season, the 25-year-old doesn't appear to have experienced any setbacks in his recovery process. Barrios will likely be sent down to minor league camp soon, where he'll continue ramping up his activity in preparation for his 2017 debut.

  • Brewers' Yhonathan Barrios: Re-joins Brewers

    Barrios (shoulder) agreed to a minor-league contract with the Brewers on Wednesday.

    Barrios became a free agent earlier this week after being outrighted to Triple-A, but he decided to rejoin the Brewers for another season. Barrios is still working his way back from rotator cuff surgery, but his contract includes an invitation to spring training, so he will get a chance to compete for a spot in the big league bullpen if healthy.

  • Yhonathan Barrios: Heads to free agency Tuesday

    Barrios declined his outright assignment to Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday, making him a free agent.

    Barrios underwent rotator cuff surgery in April, which could harm his market value a bit. Despite this, he did perform well in a brief cup of coffee with the Brewers in 2015 (0 ER, 7 K in 6.2 innings pitched), so he could attract some interest if he can get back to 100 percent in a timely manner.

  • Brewers' Yhonathan Barrios: Outrighted to Triple-A

    Barrios (shoulder) was outrighted to Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday.

    The Brewers need to clear some room on the 40-man roster to protect players from the Rule 5 Draft. Barrios will serve as organizational bullpen depth once he is fully recovered from rotator cuff surgery he underwent in April.

  • Brewers' Yhonathan Barrios: Undergoing rotator cuff surgery Tuesday

    Barrios (shoulder) will undergo rotator cuff surgery Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The 24-year-old righty was placed on the 60-day disabled list Sunday due to a serious shoulder injury. After getting a second opinion from noted sports surgeon Dr. James Andrews, the decision was made to have Barrios undergo rotator cuff surgery. There is no timetable for his return at this point, but he'll likely miss at least the majority of the season.

  • Brewers' Yhonathan Barrios: Starts 2016 on 60-day DL

    Barrios will open the season on the 60-day DL, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Barrios had a scheduled visit with Dr. James Andrews in mid-March, and it appears that the second opinion he received was not necessarily favorable. No major surgery has been scheduled, but the righty will have an extended absence on tap before being reevaluated.

  • Brewers' Yhonathan Barrios: Will not be ready for Opening Day

    Barrios (shoulder) is getting a second opinion on his shoulder from Dr. James Andrews and will not be ready for Opening Day, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The right-hander has been sidelined since Mar. 7 with the ailment, and it appears to be much worse than initially thought. Surgery is in the realm of possibility if the second opinion does raise more concern over the state of it, and it's becoming even more likely that he could start the season on the disabled list. Regardless, things should become clearer once Dr. Andrews examines the damage.

    Barrios will not throw for at least 3-to-4 days due to a shoulder injury, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Barrios' pursuit of a spot in the Brewers' bullpen will be put on hold while he recovers from his shoulder injury. He is likely on the outside looking in at a roster spot at this point, however, so he will likely begin his season either in the minors or on the disabled list.
