Perkins is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs.

Perkins is out of the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Perkins went 1-for-7 with a walk and a run scored while starting in center field in both of the Brewers' first two games following his return from the bereavement list Sunday, but he'll give way to Brandon Lockridge in the first contest of the twin bill. The two players could form a platoon in center until Jackson Chourio (hamstring) returns from the injured list, with the switch-hitting Perkins in line to receive most of the starts versus right-handed pitchers.

The Brewers reinstated Perkins (personal) from the bereavement list Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old was away from the team for the past few days to tend to a personal matter, but he's back for the series finale in Cincinnati. Perkins will bat sixth and start in center field Sunday, and he should operate as the primary option at the position with Jackson Chourio (hamstring) likely out for a couple more weeks.

The Brewers placed Perkins (personal) on the bereavement list Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Perkins will step away from the team for a few days for personal reasons. Players can remain on the bereavement list for 3-to-7 games, so the outfielder should be back with the Brewers sometime next week. Brandon Lockridge could pick up some extra starts in center field in the meantime.

Perkins went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, two total runs and two total RBI in a 5-4 win against Atlanta on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Perkins' two-run homer to right field in the fifth inning gave the Brewers a 5-1 lead, and that held up as Atlanta fell short by a run. Perkins continues to thrive in the absence of Jackson Chourio (hamstring); since Chourio got hurt July 29, Perkins has started seven straight games in center field and is batting .323 with three homers, nine runs, six RBI and a stolen base during that span. Perkins went deep just six times over 121 regular-season games last year, and he's already halfway to that mark with three home runs through just 17 contests this season.

Perkins went 2-for-6 with two home runs and three RBI in Friday's 16-9 win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
The switch hitter launched both blasts from the right side of the plate, taking Mitchell Parker deep in the second and fifth innings. The homers were the first of the season for Perkins, who is batting .281 (9-for-32) over 12 games since the All-Star break with five extra-base hits (two double, a triple, two home runs), two steals, six RBI and eight runs. With Jackson Chourio (hamstring) set to miss more than the 10-day minimum after being placed on the injured list Friday, Perkins should be in line for an everyday role over the next few weeks.

Perkins went 1-for-1 with an RBI single, a run scored and a stolen base during Sunday's 3-2 win over Miami.
EDGE Analysis
Perkins didn't make the starting nine Sunday, but he entered in the eighth inning as a pinch runner for William Contreras. The outfielder immediately swiped second base and then scored the game-tying run. In the ninth, Perkins stepped into the batter's box and walked it off with a single. Since joining the big-league club July 18, Perkins is 5-for-22 (.227) with three RBI, three runs scored and a pair of steals.
