Brewers send Nate Orf back to AAA, call up Jorge Lopez

Chances were Nate Orf’s first stint in the majors was never going to be a long one. With Tyler Saladino back from the disabled list, there was suddenly a glut of middle infielders on the 25-man roster, even after the DFA of Eric Sogard.

With Brent Suter landing on the disabled list and Aaron Wilkerson getting called up to make a spot start this afternoon, the Brewers made a move to give themselves another insurance arm in what could end up being a Johnny Wholestaff afternoon, sending Orf back to Colorado Springs in favor of Jorge Lopez.
