Brewers place Eric Sogard on 10-day disabled list

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Eric Sogard was placed on the 10-day disabled list Thursday, retroactive to July 5, with a left ankle strain.

What It Means:

Sogard has been dealing with ankle trouble since last week, so the Brewers are hoping he'll be ready and rested for the start of the second half following next week's All-Star break. Yadiel Rivera has been recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs in a corresponding move.

Sogard is slashing .331/.438/.485 with a .924 OPS in 43 games this season while recording 3 home runs and 14 RBI in 43 games (162 plate appearances). Prior to injury, numberFire's models project him for a .288 batting average in 164 more plate appearances over the rest of the year.
