Prior to their 4-3 victory over the Cubs, the Brewers placed right-hander Grant Anderson on the 15-day injured list due to right biceps inflammation, calling up Brandon Sproat from Triple-A Nashville. Anderson has been a key bullpen asset, pitching 128 2/3 innings since joining Milwaukee, but recent heavy usage may have contributed to his injury. Sproat, who has struggled with a 5.27 ERA in the majors, now assumes a relief role as the Brewers navigate a tough schedule. Anderson could return by September 22, but lingering discomfort may jeopardize his postseason availability.
