The Brewers are making their first roster move of the young season before this afternoon’s series finale in Chicago, activating left-hander Eric Lauer from the injured list and designating reliever Mike Morin for assignment.
Lauer missed much of Summer Camp being quarantined after potentially being exposed to COVID-19. He was able to pitch an inning late in camp as part of the Blue-Gold Series, but was still behind schedule compared to the rest of the team’s pitchers, and was deemed not ready for the start of the season.
