Jeferson Quero Called Up, Vaughn to IL

0:00It's March 28th. This is Milwaukee Brewer's News Today, AI-powered updates on your team. I'm Corey with the story. Brewer's making a quit move with Top Prospect Jefferson Carroll getting called up to cover for Andrew Vaughn. Vaughn fractured the Hamade bone in his left hand during Thursday season opener and heads to the injured list. The team announced it right before Saturday's game against the Chicago White Sox. This marks the second everyday player sideline early for Milwaukee. Jackson Churrio broke his hand in spring training and should miss two to four weeks. Vaughn faces four to six weeks out per reports from MLB.com. Carol, a 23-year-old catcher, was one of baseball's elite prospects before shoulder and hamstring injuries last year slowed him down. In 69 AAA games after returning, he slashed 271 over 361 over 478 with 17 doubles 11. Homers and 47 RBI's and 250 played appearances. He ranks eighth among Brewer's prospects by MLB.com and fourth by the athletic.

1:04Expect Carol to serve as a right-handed bench bat since William Contreras owns the starting catcher spot. Gary Sanchez might see more time at first base while Jake Bauer's covers left field during Churrio's absence. Vaughn, traded from the White Sox last year, hit 308 over 375 over 493 in the second half with 14 doubles 9 homers and 46 RBI's. Brewer's depth gets tested early, but these tweaks keep them rolling into the season.
