Taylor (elbow) could be activated from the 10-day injured list during the Brewers' upcoming road trip, which runs Tuesday through next Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old has played in three games on his rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville, and he may not need much more action in the minors before joining the big club. Taylor has been on the shelf for the first month of the season with a sprained elbow, but he should see regular playing time in right field once activated, especially with Garrett Mitchell (shoulder) facing an extended absence.

Taylor (elbow) is on track to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville next Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor has been playing in extended spring training games and is almost ready to test his sprained right elbow out in an uncontrolled game setting. With Garret Mitchell (shoulder) landing on the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Taylor could have a path to a semi-regular role in the outfield if he beats Mitchell back from the shelf.

Taylor (elbow) is currently shut down from throwing after suffering a small setback, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was about halfway through that week-long shutdown period as of Friday and the hope is that he can resume a throwing program sometime next week. The 29-year-old outfielder suffered a right elbow sprain just before the start of spring training and continues to run into complications with his rehab. The new target for his 2023 debut might be late May.

Taylor (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move is retroactive to Monday, but Taylor isn't expected to be ready to join the Brewers until May as he recovers from a right elbow sprain. He had only recently resumed on-field work as spring training came to an end.

Taylor (elbow) has progressed to doing on-field work, including hitting, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brewers manager Craig Counsell indicated Wednesday that Taylor might even be a little ahead of his mid-May timetable at this point. The 29-year-old is projected to receive most of the playing time in right field for the Brewers once he makes it back from his elbow injury.

Taylor (elbow) said Monday that he's hoping to be ready to join the Brewers by mid-May, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor suffered a right elbow sprain just before reporting to camp in February and has not progressed as quickly as hoped, though he was recently cleared to begin a throwing program. The 29-year-old had been in line for regular starts in right field to open the 2023 campaign. Brian Anderson will probably now fill that role through for Milwaukee the first several weeks of the regular season.

Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Wednesday that Taylor returned to Milwaukee to receive a platelet-rich plasma injection in his right elbow and is likely to miss the first month of the season, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor reported to camp with a right elbow sprain and hasn't made quick progress in his recovery. The 29-year-old won't be ready to resume baseball activities for at least three more weeks and will begin the season on the injured list. Taylor's absence could clear the way for non-roster invitee Tyler Naquin to win a spot on the Opening Day roster, possibly as a platoon option in the corner outfield with Brian Anderson.

Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Tuesday that Taylor (elbow) is in jeopardy of missing the start of the regular season, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was diagnosed with a right elbow sprain earlier this month and hasn't progressed as quickly as hoped. He had been penciled in as the Opening Day right fielder for Milwaukee. Maybe that job now falls to non-roster invitee Tyler Naquin. Brian Anderson could also get looks in right, and the Brewers do have a number of highly-touted outfield prospects.

Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Wednesday that Taylor is expected to miss approximately two weeks after suffering a right elbow sprain, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor will be forced to miss the start of spring training while nursing the injury, but he should still be able to get plenty of reps before Opening Day on March 30. The outfielder has seen his role increase each season of his four-year career with the Brewers, starting 120 games last year while producing a .233 average, 17 home runs, 51 RBI, 49 runs and three stolen bases over 373 at-bats.

Taylor isn't starting Monday against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Though he went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and two runs during Sunday's series finale against the Yankees, Taylor still appears to be behind Garrett Mitchell for work in center field. Taylor will head to the bench Monday for the third time in four games.
