Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Jesus Aguilar went 3-for-5 with two runs, three RBI and two doubles in the 12-3 win over the Miami Marlins.

Jonathan Villar Will Rest On Thursday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jonathan Villar will get the day off as the Brewers face off against the Miami Marlins. Like Thames, Villar has been a much better hitter against righties this season with a .304 batting average against righties while only rocking a .231 average against lefties. Villar's subpar fielding so far could also play […]
Eric Thames Out Of Lineup Against Lefty
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Eric Thames will draw out of the lineup on Thursday against starter Dillon Peters and the Miami Marlins. Lots of Thames' explosiveness comes from getting to see the ball better against righties as a left-handed batter, and historically he does not have great stats against left-handed pitchers. In his career, he […]
Ryan Braun Hopes To Play Friday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun (calf) said he feels much better and is hoping to play Friday against the Miami Marlins, according to Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Wade Miley Makes Good Progress In Rehab Start
