Singleton is not in the starting lineup Sunday versus Oakland.
EDGE Analysis
Singleton will head to the bench as the Brewers face off with southpaw JP Sears on Sunday. Singleton has gone 3-for-22 with a double, two RBI and three runs scored while drawing a walk and striking out six times since being promoted from Triple-A Nashville on June 3. Christian Yelich will slot in at designated hitter while Blake Perkins enters the lineup in left field and will bat eighth as Milwaukee looks to avoid the sweep.

Singleton went 1-for-4 with one run scored in Saturday's 10-8 win over Cincinnati.
EDGE Analysis
Singleton made his first MLB appearance since 2015, playing first and batting sixth. Rowdy Tellez operated as the designated hitter Saturday, but he figures to man first on a regular basis, so Singleton will presumably be relegated to a backup role, limiting his overall fantasy value.

The Brewers selected Singleton's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
With Darin Ruf (knee) headed to the 10-day injured list, Singleton will play in the majors for the first time since 2015 and serve as Milwaukee's backup first baseman. Singleton is slashing .258/.384/.483 with 10 homers and 29 RBI through 216 plate appearances with Nashville, but he likely won't make a big enough impact in Milwaukee to become a fantasy asset.

Singleton will have his contract selected from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Singleton will have a chance to play in the majors for the first time since 2015. The 31-year-old first baseman was signed to a minor-league contract over the winter, and he hit .258 with 10 homers and an .867 OPS over 178 plate appearances with Nashville. Singleton could see time at first base as well as designated hitter while he's with the Brew Crew, but he isn't worth fantasy consideration in leagues at this time.

Singleton was reassigned Tuesday to the minor-league side of Brewers camp, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Singleton was released by the Brewers back in January before re-signing with the club on a minor-league pact a few weeks later. He hasn't appeared in a game at the major-league level since all the way back in 2015.

Singleton signed a minor-league contract with the Brewers on Friday and received an invitation to major-league spring training, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
After being cut by the Brewers roughly two weeks ago, Singleton will rejoin the club as an organizational depth piece. The 31-year-old first baseman recorded an .809 OPS with Triple-A Nashville last year after sitting out the previous four seasons.

Singleton was released by the Brewers on Thursday, per the MLB transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Singleton was designated for assignment by Milwaukee on Monday, and he unsurprisingly went unclaimed on waivers. He spent the entire 2022 season with Triple-A Nashville and managed a .219/.375/.434 line across 581 plate appearances.

The Brewers designated Singleton for assignment Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move opens up a spot on the 40-man roster for Brian Anderson, whose one-year deal with Milwaukee became official Monday. The 31-year-old Singleton was added to the Brewers' 40-man roster earlier in the offseason after he slashed .219.375/.434 with 24 home runs in 134 games with Triple-A Nashville in 2022. The former top prospect will hit waivers, and he could elect free agency if he goes unclaimed.

Singleton was added to the Brewers' 40-man roster Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Singleton recently re-signed with Milwaukee on a minor-league deal, and he's now been bumped up to the 40-man roster. The 31-year-old, who was a highly-regarded prospect with the Astros nearly a decade ago, spent 2022 at Triple-A Nashville and had a .219/.375/.434 slash line with 24 home runs, 87 RBI and 84 runs in 134 games. He'll likely receive an invite to big-league camp but will need a strong showing in spring training to have a chance of cracking the Opening Day roster.

Singleton agreed Monday with the Brewers on a minor-league contract, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
For the first time since 2017, Singleton made his return to affiliated ball in 2022 and provided a nice blend of power and on-base skills for Triple-A Nashville in Milwaukee's organization. While playing in 134 games, the 31-year-old first baseman slashed .219/.375/.434 with 24 home runs and a 20.4 percent walk rate across 581 plate appearances. He'll likely get the opportunity to join the Brewers for big-league camp this spring as a non-roster invitee, but the expectation is that he'll report back to Nashville for the start of the 2023 campaign.
