Sobotka was outrighted to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Sobotka had been pitching for the Triple-A club recently, but his removal from the 40-man roster will make room for Ryan Weber, who was claimed off waivers in a corresponding move. The right-hander has made five relief appearances for Triple-A Nashville this year and has posted a 4.91 ERA and 2.81 WHIP in 3.2 innings.

Sobotka (illness) has appeared in two games for Triple-A Nashville so far in June, working scoreless innings Thursday and Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The Brewers acquired Sobotka from Atlanta back on April 6, but he didn't make his organizational debut until nearly two months later after he battled a sinus infection prior to the start of the minor-league season in early May. Now healthy, Sobotka will likely need to impress out of the Nashville bullpen over a handful of outings before Milwaukee considers calling him up.

Sobotka has yet to pitch for Triple-A Nashville this season due to a sinus infection, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old was acquired by the Brewers from the Braves in early April, but he has yet to see game action with his new organization. It's unclear when Sobotka is expected to make his season debut for Nashville.

Sobotka was traded from Atlanta to Milwaukee along with Patrick Weigel on Tuesday, with Orlando Arcia going the other way.
EDGE Analysis
Sobotka posted a 1.88 ERA in his 14.1-inning debut in 2018, but he's struggled significantly since then. Over the last two seasons, he owns a 6.89 ERA, with his 26.0 percent strikeout rate not coming close to making up for his 13.6 percent walk rate. He spent most of last year at Atlanta's alternate training site and will head to Milwaukee's following the move.

Sobotka was optioned to team's alternate training site Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Sobotka was recalled to the big-league club Saturday to provide depth in the bullpen. However, he struggled in two-thirds of an inning, surrendering five earned runs on five hits. Bryse Wilson takes over his roster spot as bullpen depth.

Sobotka was recalled by Atlanta on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Sobotka was sent to the alternate training site in the middle of August, but he'll now return to the major-league club after Huascar Ynoa was sent down. Sobotka tossed three scoreless innings while allowing one hit and two walks and striking out one over three appearances earlier this season.

The Braves optioned Sobotka to their alternate training site in Gwinnett on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Sobotka was removed from the active roster as the Braves cleared a spot for designated hitter Matt Adams (hamstring) to return from the 10-day injured list. The right-hander's latest stint with Atlanta lasted two days, with Sobotka failing to appear out of the bullpen in victories Saturday and Sunday over the Marlins.

Sobotka was recalled from the Braves' alternate training site Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Sobotka has gone back and forth between the major-league club and the alternate training site, but he'll claim a spot on the active roster after Ronald Acuna (wrist) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday. The right-hander has made three relief appearances in 2020, tossing three scoreless innings while allowing one hit and two walks with one strikeout.

Sobotka was returned to the Braves' alternate training site Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Sobotka served in Atlanta's bullpen as the 29th man for Sunday's doubleheader against the Phillies. He came in to finish the contest in the second game of the twin bill, firing one scoreless inning while allowing no hits or walks and striking out one. He could be an option to fill in later in the season, but he'll continue working at the alternate training site for now.

The Braves recalled Sobotka from their alternate training site ahead of Sunday's doubleheader with the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Sobotka was demoted after Saturday's 5-0 loss to clear a spot in the bullpen for Robbie Erlin, but the Braves will bring the former back as the 29th man for the twin bill. The right-hander has tossed a pair of scoreless innings across his two relief appearances this season.
