MLB: Stephen Vogt will miss Milwaukee Brewers at the start of the season

The Milwaukee Brewers have to do without Catcher Stephen Vogt at the start of the season. A detailed examination revealed a strain on the shoulder.

As Manager Craig Counsell explained on Wednesday, a detailed investigation revealed that the ex-player of Oakland A’s had pulled a capsule strain. This means that he will not be able to attend the opening day on 29. by March. The Brewers will then compete with the San Diego Padres.

“We just need to slow down a little bit. He must first be free of pain before he can start throwing,”said Counsell. However, the Brewers have two more Catcher in the squad with Manny Pina and Jett Bandy and Christian Betancourt in the camp with a Minor League contract.

Vogt is also not used as a designated hitter in American League ball parks until he is fully recovered “There is no hurry in hitting. We think that if he starts throwing and hitting, we’ll have enough at-bats for him.”

So it is likely that Vogt will start the season on the 10-Day Disabled List.
