Lucroy (toe) was activated off the 15-day disabled list Monday.
Lucroy's absence extended to the edge of his initial 4-to-6 week timetable, but his return to the club will finally come Monday after participating his fourth rehab game with High-A Brevard County on Tuesday. He'll retake the primary catching duties for the Brewers moving forward, pushing Martin Maldonado back to the bench.

Lucroy (toe) went 1-for-3 with two walks and two runs scored in a rehab game with High-A Brevard County on Sunday.
Sunday's contest was Lucroy's fourth rehab game, and was very likely the last one he played before re-joining the Brewers. Expect his status to be updated again when it's clear whether or not he will be activated Monday.

Lucroy (toe) began a rehab assignment with High-A Brevard County on Thursday and went 1-for-3.
Lucroy has recovered from his broken toe and is now set for game action. He is set to play four games with Brevard County, and if all goes well this weekend, he figures to be activated from the disabled list Monday.

Lucroy (toe) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A Brevard County on Wednesday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Lucroy is scheduled to play four games with Brevard County, and if all goes well, he will return to action next Monday against the Cardinals. He will resume his role as the Brewers' primary catcher once he has been activated from the disabled list.

Lucroy (toe) is aiming for a return to the Milwaukee lineup for next Monday's series opener in St. Louis, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Lucroy underwent follow-up X-rays on his fractured toe Monday, which revealed that he'd been healing as expected. The Brewers haven't determined whether or not Lucroy will require a rehab assignment, but regardless, he'll likely begin ramping up his activity in the days to come. Once activated from the DL, Lucroy will likely be quickly reinstalled as the Brewers' everyday option behind the plate.

Lucroy (toe) indicated he expects to begin playing again by the next road trip at the latest, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Lucroy continues to work his way back, and it appears he's finally on the verge of a return. He's expected to undergo an X-ray Monday, and if all checks out, could go on a short minor league rehab assignment before rejoining the Brewers as early as next weekend.

Lucroy (toe) has been cleared to catch bullpens but still hasn't been cleared to run, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Running represents the last remaining hurdle for Lucroy, who remains without a firm timetable for return at this point. He's nearing the four week mark of his initial 4-to-6 week timetable, and it still appears possible that he'll return at some point over the next couple weeks.

Lucroy underwent a follow-up X-ray on Monday, which showed good signs of healing in his broken big toe, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Now two weeks removed from suffering the injury, Lucroy has been lifting weights with his upper body and getting in some light lifting with his lower half. He still has a ways to go, but Lucroy is hoping to make it back closer to the front end of his initial 4-to-6 week estimated recovery timetable.

Lucroy has been able to work out while recovering from his broken big toe, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Lucroy's return is still several weeks away, but it's a good sign that he is able to get in some exercises, including weight lifting with his upper body and light lifting with his lower half. His original timetable had him returning in 4-to-6 weeks after breaking his toe Apr. 20, so he could be back on the field later this month barring any setbacks in his recovery.

Lucroy will likely be out 4-to-6 weeks after breaking his toe in Monday's game, MLB.com's Adam McCalvy reports.
A timetable for Lucroy's return is now known, and he will not play again for the Brewers until late May or early June -- a tough break for both the struggling Milwaukee squad and Lucroy's fantasy owners. Martin Maldonado will serve as the Brewers' primary catcher until Lucroy is able to get back on the field.
