Taylor will start in right field and bat fifth Thursday against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
He'll be included in the lineup for the fifth time in six games, with his last two starts coming at the expense of Avisail Garcia. The Brewers could be inclined the ride the hotter bat of the two outfielders, as both have provided similar production on the whole this season. Taylor owns a .727 OPS over 127 plate appearances, while Garcia is holding down a .750 OPS in 283 plate appearances.

Taylor went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's 3-2 win over Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
Wednesday was Taylor's first start since he returned from a shoulder injury that required a minimum stay on the injured list. The 27-year-old singled and stole second in the fourth inning. He also singled and scored on a sacrifice fly by Jackie Bradley in the seventh. For the year, Taylor is is slashing .223/.311/.447 with six home runs, 15 RBI, nine runs scored and two stolen bases across 106 plate appearances. He's set to take on a depth role, as Christian Yelich, Bradley and Avisail Garcia are likely to be Milwaukee's preferred outfield trio.

Taylor (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Taylor required a short stay on the IL after being placed on it June 13 with a right shoulder strain. He has certainly struggled offensively this season, hitting .216 in 88 at-bats, but serves as valuable depth and will not be a regular starter now that Christian Yelich is healthy.

Taylor (shoulder) threw and took batting practice Saturday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right shoulder strain June 13. The outfielder's IL stint was initially expected to be on the shorter side, and things appear to be trending in that direction at this point. He's eligible to be activated Monday, though it's possible he'll need a few more days before being reinstated.

Taylor (shoulder) is doing much better and hopes for a brief stay on the injured list, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor landed on the injured list with a right shoulder strain Saturday, but his injury is unlikely to require a lengthy absence. The 27-year-old is eligible to return during the team's upcoming series in Arizona, and he should take on a depth role in the outfield once he's back in action.

The Brewers placed Taylor on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a strained right shoulder.
EDGE Analysis
Utility man Tim Lopes was recalled from Triple-A Nashville to take Taylor's spot on the active roster. The 27-year-old Taylor had been working as a fourth outfielder for Milwaukee of late, with most of his starts coming against left-handed pitching. Lopes could be a candidate to serve as a short-side platoon partner with lefty-hitting center fielder Jackie Bradley while Taylor is on the shelf.

Taylor went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Tuesday's 10-7 loss to the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
The two teams combined for nine homers on the night, and Taylor joined in the barrage in his first game since returning to the big-league roster. On the season, the 27-year-old is slashing .218/.307/.449 with five home runs and 12 RBI in 88 plate appearances, and he could handle a short-side platoon role in the Milwaukee outfield with Lorenzo Cain (hamstring) back on the IL.

Taylor was recalled from Triple-A Nashville Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
With Lorenzo Cain landing on the 10-day IL Tuesday with a strained right hamstring, Taylor will head back to the majors just a week after being optioned to Nashville. The outfielder will look to find greater success at the plate after slashing just .203/.298/.365 through 84 major-league plate appearances so far this season.

Taylor was optioned to Triple-A Nashville ahead of Tuesday's game against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor's demotion is less than shocking, considering he's slashed just .203/.298/.365 across 84 plate appearances this season. Eric Yardley was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and will take Taylor's roster spot.
