Lucroy is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Although Lucroy was medically cleared last week, the Brewers are understandably reluctant to return him behind the plate this season, leaving him to handle part-time duty at first base and off the bench. With the Brewers facing another right-hander in Andrew Cashner, Lucroy will remain on the pine in favor of Adam Lind. It remains to be seen how many starts Lucroy will log over the final four days.

Lucroy is out of the lineup Sunday against the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy has fully recovered from the concussion that sidelined him for a couple of weeks, but the Brewers aren't planning on using him in anything more than a part-time role the rest of the way. He'll occasionally spell Adam Lind at first base and serve as one of the Brewers' top pinch-hitting options, but Martin Maldonado will retain regular catching duties with the Brewers reluctant to use Lucroy behind the plate.

Lucroy went 3-for-4 with an RBI in a 5-1 loss to St. Louis on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy got the start at first base and it appears he'll be limited to pinch-hit at-bats and starts against left-handers at first base for the last 10 days. It's smart to keep a guy like this as healthy as possible and the Brewers are doing the right thing for the everyday catcher, as he's been dealing with concussion issues lately. It remains to be seen if he'll catch next season with the concussion problems, but he could be a nice bounce back candidate and a solid value in drafts next season.

Lucroy (concussion) is back in the lineup Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Lucroy will start at first base Saturday against the Cardinals' Jaime Garcia. He was medically cleared to return to the lineup Thursday, but the Brewers wanted to give him another day off before returning him to the lineup. With little over a week left in the regular season, it's unlikely Lucroy will take over behind the plate with the season winding to a close. Instead expect him to split time at first base with Adam Lind for the rest of the season.

Lucroy (concussion) has been formally cleared to play and is available off the bench Thursday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. He could start Saturday's game against southpaw Jaime Garcia, according to the report.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy was medically cleared to play, but the Brewers were awaiting formal clearance before he could exit the concussion protocol. He now has that as well, and it seems likely the backstop will rejoin the lineup within the next few days. However, with just over a week left in the season, he's not expected to play behind the plate, so it's possible he will see limited action at first base, splitting with Adam Lind.

Lucroy has been medically cleared to play but the Brewers are waiting for him to be formally cleared to exit concussion protocol, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Paperwork is all that stands between Lucroy and his return to the field. Assuming the union pushes it through in short order, Lucroy will likely slot back into the lineup at some point this weekend in St. Louis. The Brewers are not expected to return Lucroy behind the plate over the final weeks, meaning his playing time will come at first base.

Lucroy (concussion) will not catch again this year but is expected to see time at first base, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Craig Counsell said last week that Lucroy was making "small progress" in his recovery from a concussion, and the team ultimately decided the risk of returning him behind the plate this season was too great. However, the plan is for Lucroy to see some time in the field at first base, which is good news for those who have been stashing Lucroy, but it's not entirely clear when he will return to the lineup.

Manager Craig Counsell said Thursday that Lucroy is making "small progress" in his recovery from a concussion, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Despite the lack of significant progress with Lucroy's injury, Counsell is still holding out hope the catcher will be able to play again in 2015. It's been a disappointing year overall for Lucroy, as he also missed a large chunk of time early in the year with a toe injury, and his performance when on the field was not up to par with what we've come to expect from him (.259/.322/.390).

Lucroy was officially diagnosed with a mild concussion, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

While Lucroy plans to return this season, he acknowledged the danger of coming back too soon and suffering another concussion, saying "then you're talking some serious trouble." Ultimately, his status for a return will be determined by doctors and the training staff. Lucroy suffered the concussion when a hard foul tip struck his catcher's mask in Miami on Tuesday.

Lucroy (concussion) remains out of the lineup Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The results of the exam Lucroy was set to undergo Saturday have not been made available, but he will continue to sit out with his concussion symptoms. Nevin Ashley will get the start behind the plate for the Brewers on Saturday night.
