Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Back in action at Double-A
Lutz (undisclosed) has appeared in five games since Double-A Biloxi reinstated him from its 7-day injured list Aug. 19, going 5-for-18 with two walks, a double and four RBI across those contests.
Lutz was inactive for approximately six weeks with the unspecified injury. The 23-year-old outfielder has endured a disappointing 2021 campaign at Biloxi, slashing .215/.290/.393 while striking out in 31.8 percent of his plate appearances.

Lutz was placed on the 7-day minor-league injured list with an unspecified injury Friday.
The Brewers didn't announce what injury Lutz is dealing with, and it's not yet clear whether he could spend more than the minimum of seven days on the shelf. The 22-year-old has appeared in 45 games for Double-A Biloxi to begin the year, and he's slashed .208/.284/.399 with seven home runs, 27 RBI, 22 runs and two stolen bases.

Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Reporting to big-league spring camp
The Brewers announced Wednesday that Lutz will attend big-league spring training as a non-roster invitee, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
The 22-year-old is among a handful of the Brewers' more advanced prospects who will get the opportunity to showcase his skills at big-league camp before likely being reassigned to the minors shortly before Opening Day. Before the 2020 minor-league season was cancelled, Lutz most recently saw action at High-A Carolina, submitting a .255/.335/.419 slash line over 477 plate appearances in 2019.

Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Added to summer camp pool
Lutz (groin) was added to Milwaukee's summer camp player pool Thursday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
While the Brewers have yet to provide an update on Lutz, who underwent sports hernia surgery over the offseason, he was expected to be back to full health by April. The 21-year-old doesn't figure to factor significantly into the big-league picture during the shortened 2020 season after spending the 2019 campaign with High-A Carolina, hitting .255/.335/.419 across 477 plate appearances.

Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Sidelined with triceps injury
Lutz is dealing with a right triceps strain, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
The injury will prevent Lutz from playing in the Arizona Fall League, though he isn't expected to require surgery. The 21-year-old posted a .255/.335/.419 slash line with 13 home runs and three steals in 112 games during his first season with High-A Carolina.

Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Turns things around
Lutz has hit .295/.381/.554 with seven home runs, 13 doubles, 21 RBI and a 16:44 BB:K in 160 plate appearances over his last 36 games with High-A Carolina.
Lutz is playing at the High-A level this season for the first time, and he owned a woeful .444 OPS after 19 games. The slow start was not all that surprising for someone 2.6 years younger on average than the rest of the players in the Carolina League, according to Baseball Reference, but he has turned things around in a big way since, putting up impressive numbers in each of the three slash categories. The 2017 competitive-balance round pick is one of the top prospects in the Brewers' organization.

Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Slow start
Lutz is hitting only .182/.250/.299 in 84 plate appearances for High-A Carolina. He has 30 strikeouts, good for a 35.7 strikeout percentage.
Lutz, a Competitive Balance Round A pick in 2017, struggled early last season at Low-A but was better over the second half. He turns 21 in August, so he's not especially old for the level, but he hasn't fared all that well in full season ball after dominating in Rookie-level ball after getting drafted.

Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Heading to High-A level
Lutz will begin his season with High-A Carolina, according to Mike Rosenbaum of MLB.com.
Lutz did not post eye-popping numbers while spending the entire 2018 season with Low-A Wisconsin, but he showed marked improvement as the season wore on, posting an .802 OPS in 61 games after the Midwest League All-Star break compared to just a .677 OPS in 58 games before the cut-off. Lutz was a competitive-balance pick for the Brewers just two years ago, and the promotion signals the club is confident the strides he made last season will carry over to the 2019 campaign.

Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Big day for Low-A affiliate
Lutz went 2-for-3 with a home run, double, three walks and a stolen base for Low-A Wisconsin in its 19-5 win over Peoria on Monday.
Lutz put the full scope of his skill set on display Monday, showcasing the plus power and solid speed and plate discipline that made him a Competitive Balance Round A pick in 2017. It's the 19-year-old's contributions as a slugger that drive most of his intrigue in dynasty settings, and he's beginning to rack up the extra base hits with more regularity after a slow start to Midwest League play. Lutz has tallied three home runs, 11 doubles and a triple in just 70 at-bats over his last 18 games.

Brewers' Tristen Lutz: Getting on track
Lutz went 2-for-5 with a double and two runs in a game with Low-A Wisconsin on Thursday.
Lutz owned a woeful .366 OPS after 14 games this season but he has started to heat up, going 8-for-27 (.296) with a home run, three doubles, and 4:7 BB:K -- good for a .925 OPS -- over his last seven contests. Lutz has not received much fanfare as a prospect just yet, but at 18 years old he posted a .957 OPS over 40 rookie-league games in 2017 and was a competitive balance round pick earlier last year, so he could make some noise this summer if his recent adjustments stick.
