Monasterio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Monasterio had seen a surge in playing time in late June, but his starts will likely be more sparse moving forward after Joey Ortiz was reinstated from the injured list Friday. With Ortiz taking back everyday duties at third base, Monasterio will fill a utility role moving forward and will likely draw most of his starts against left-handed pitching.

Monasterio went 2-for-3 with a walk, one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Wednesday's 9-0 win over the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Monasterio has a pair of multi-hit efforts over seven games in July, but he's gone hitless in four other contests this month. The infielder is slashing a meager .200/.286/.267 with one home run, nine RBI, nine runs scored and four stolen bases across 84 plate appearances. While Joey Ortiz (neck) is on the injured list, Monasterio has shared third base with Vinny Capra, though neither player has done much with their extra playing time.

Monasterio isn't in the Brewers' lineup Tuesday versus Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

Monasterio has struggled since taking over for Joey Ortiz (neck) as Milwaukee's primary third baseman, going just 2-for-15 at the plate in his last four games. He'll give way to Vinny Capra on Tuesday, who will bat ninth while manning the hot corner.

Monasterio was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old was scheduled to bat ninth as the designated hitter, but William Contreras and Willy Adames were late additions to the lineup after initially being scheduled for days off. Monasterio should continue to operate as a bench bat while seeing some stars against left-handed pitching.

Monasterio started at second base and went 0-for-4 in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Monasterio started in each of the Brewers' three games in Miami and led off the past two contests, reaching base four times while contributing a home run and a stolen base during that stretch. Milwaukee faced lefty starters in each of those contests, so while Monasterio looks like he'll remain a key part of the lineup in those matchups, he's still operating in the short side of a platoon at second base with the lefty-hitting Brice Turang.

The Brewers recalled Monasterio from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Monasterio has appeared in four games with the Brewers this season, going 0-for-7 with two runs and two walks. He's slashing .243/.362/.297 with seven runs, two doubles, six steals and four RBI over 47 plates appearances in Triple-A this season. Monasterio's move up to the majors corresponds with the Brewers placing Joey Wiemer (knee) on the 10-day injured list.

The Brewers optioned Monasterio to Triple-A Nashville on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Monasterio was up with the big club over the weekend while Jake Bauers (personal) was on the bereavement list, but Monasterio will now return to Nashville with Bauers back in tow for Monday's game versus the Pirates. The infielder didn't appear in a game during his latest stint in the majors.

Monasterio was recalled from Triple-A Nashville by the Brewers on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Monasterio was hitless in seven at-bats earlier this season with the Brewers and went 5-for-12 during his time at Nashville. He will provide Milwaukee with infield depth.

The Brewers optioned Monasterio to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old has just nine plate appearances through the first couple weeks of the season, so he'll head to Triple-A with Milwaukee in need of outfield depth while Christian Yelich (back) is banged up. Monasterio will be a top candidate to rejoin the Brewers when infield depth is needed.

Monasterio is starting at third base and batting ninth in Friday's opener against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old is part of a lineup loaded with righties and switch hitters versus southpaw Jose Quintana. Monasterio slashed .291/.387/.392 against left-handers last season.
