The Milwaukee Brewers catching core is very crowded with Manny Pina, Jett Bandy, and the surprise Jacob Nottingham. So they will not miss him too much. For Stephen Vogt, however, this is a tough pill to swallow.
The Injury
Vogt hurt himself during Spring Training. He was in a battle with Bandy to be Pina’s backup, but the decision was made for him. While on a rehab assignment with Biloxi, Vogt made a throw and reinjured his shoulder. Though it was the same shoulder, the pain was in a different spot. The 33 year old returned to the Brewers to get it looked at.
