Ortiz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Andruw Monasterio will receive the nod at shortstop in place of Ortiz in the regular-season finale. Unless he's called upon off the bench, Ortiz will finish his third big-league campaign with a .231 average, seven home runs, 14 stolen bases, 45 RBI and 62 runs in 148 games.

Ortiz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Ortiz started the past 11 games after coming off the injured list to begin September, but he'll hit the bench Sunday after posting a .206/.229/.206 slash line during that span. Andruw Monasterio will take over at shortstop after delivering a walk-off single Saturday.

The Brewers activated Ortiz (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Monday
EDGE Analysis
Ortiz will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Phillies, with his return from the shelf pushing Andruw Monasterio back into a utility infielder role. Though he holds a weak .612 OPS on the season, Ortiz has performed much better since the All-Star break, slashing .294/.330/.394 slash line with one home run and two steals in 32 second-half contests.

Ortiz (hamstring) said Thursday he's running at close to 100 percent and is on track for activation from the 10-day injured list when first eligible Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's not clear whether Ortiz will be asked to go out on a brief rehab assignment first, but either way, he appears poised for activation at the start of the Brewers' series next week against the Phillies. The shortstop has missed the last week of action with a left hamstring strain.

Ortiz (hamstring) fielded grounders Monday and hopes to be activated from the 10-day injured list when first eligible Sept. 1, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ortiz suffered a left hamstring strain last Thursday and was placed on the IL on Friday. He'll have to show he can ramp up his running without issue before convincing the Brewers he'll need only a minimum-length absence, but Ortiz seems to be doing well during the early stages of his recovery.

The Brewers placed Ortiz (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left hamstring strain, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ortiz left Thursday's game against the Cubs after grabbing at his hamstring while running out a groundball, and further testing revealed he's dealing with a strain. Per McCalvy, it's a low-grade strain. The 26-year-old shortstop's spot on the 26-man roster will go to Jake Bauers (shoulder), who's being activated from the injured list in a corresponding move. Look for Andruw Monasterio and Brice Turang to handle most of the action at shortstop while Ortiz is idle.

Ortiz has been diagnosed with a left hamstring injury after exiting Thursday's win over the Cubs in the fifth inning, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
The severity of the injury isn't yet known, but Ortiz will presumably undergo further testing. His status for Friday's series opener against the Giants is uncertain. Andruw Monasterio filled in at shortstop in place of Ortiz on Thursday and would be the logical candidate to step in at the position if Ortiz needs to miss time.

Ortiz exited Thursday's game against the Cubs in the bottom of the fifth inning with an apparent left leg injury, Sophia Minnaert of FanDuel Sports Network Wisconsin reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ortiz grounded out to third in the top of the fifth and was grabbing at his left leg. He fouled a pitch off his left knee Tuesday, but it's unclear if the two issues are related. Andruw Monasterio has replaced Ortiz at shortstop for Milwaukee.
