David Hamilton, the Brewers' speedy infielder, is set to return to the team's lineup by the weekend after a successful rehab assignment. Hamilton, who has been on the 10-day injured list since July 6th due to a strained left hamstring, will play back-to-back games for Triple-A Nashville at Sugar Land, Texas, before rejoining the Brewers for Friday's series opener against the Rockies. This marks a significant step in his recovery process, as he's also been dealing with a sore right elbow, which had been a concern before the hamstring injury. Since his return to the Brewers in a trade with the Red Sox, Hamilton has been a consistent performer, boasting a .240/.317/.333 batting average and a .748 OPS since June. His speed is a valuable asset, as he leads the team with 18 stolen bases. However, the Brewers' injury report also includes updates on other players. Outfielder Sal Frelick, who has been dealing with a right shoulder issue, underwent an arthrogram and will seek a second opinion to determine his recovery timeline. Left-hander Kyle Harrison is set to throw live batting practice on Saturday and could make a rehab start on July 31st. DL Hall, who is recovering from a left pectoral injury, is scheduled for his next rehab appearance on Wednesday but still has hurdles to clear before returning to the major league team. Brandon Lockridge, who suffered a laceration and bone bruise in May, is also on the road to recovery and will join the Sounds on a rehab assignment. These updates provide a glimpse into the Brewers' ongoing battle with injuries, and fans can stay informed about the latest developments on the team's official injury report.
