Milwaukee Brewers rookie Jacob Misiorowski has been activated from the injured list after a 2 1/2‑week layoff due to a left tibia contusion, potentially lining him up to start the NL Central showdown in Cincinnati to open a series that could push Milwaukee to a franchise‑tying 13th straight win. That streak would match the club’s 1987 start, a milestone the Brewers are chasing as they hold the NL Central lead. Misiorowski, 4-1 with a 2.70 ERA in seven starts, has fanned 47 across 33 1/3 innings and last pitched July 28 against the Cubs, when his knee buckled while fielding a dribbler.

Aside from Misiorowski’s return, Milwaukee shuffled its roster: Grant Anderson was optioned to Triple-A Nashville; Blake Perkins went on the bereavement list; Isaac Collins on the paternity list; and Tyler Black and Steward Berroa were recalled from Nashville. Anderson posted a 3.07 ERA over 53 relief appearances. The club’s current surge and Misiorowski’s return add a high‑upswing dynamic as they chase a storied milestone in a weekend series against the Reds.

In a notable move just before the Brewers' sweep of the Dodgers, the Los Angeles Dodgers traded outfielder Steward Berroa to the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for cash considerations. Berroa, who had recently been designated for assignment, previously made his MLB debut with the Toronto Blue Jays. In the minors, he impressed with a .330 batting average across 27 games for Triple-A Oklahoma City, showcasing potential with 11 stolen bases. His stint in the majors last season was less successful, hitting just .189.

The trade coincided with a thrilling game where Tyler Glasnow returned to the Dodgers' rotation, delivering five scoreless innings, though his team ultimately fell to the Brewers. Milwaukee's Andrew Vaughn tied the game late, and Jackson Chourio capped the comeback with a walk-off single, extending the Dodgers' losing streak to six games.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have traded outfielder Steward Berroa to the Milwaukee Brewers for cash considerations, a move finalized during the teams' series. Berroa, 26, had been designated for assignment earlier this month and will now join the Brewers' Triple-A Nashville squad. Milwaukee plans to place him on the injured list due to right shoulder bursitis. After being acquired from the Toronto Blue Jays in May, Berroa impressed in Triple-A Oklahoma City, posting a .330 batting average with 11 steals across 27 games.

In Major League Baseball, while Berroa has not solidified a starting role, his elite speed is a valuable asset for the Brewers, particularly in pinch-running scenarios or as depth for the final stretch of the season. The Dodgers aim to streamline their roster, gaining cash and freeing up a 40-man spot, while the Blue Jays benefit from adding a low-risk speed option.

Toronto Blue Jays have made several significant roster moves ahead of their game against the Los Angeles Angels. Jonatan Clase has been recalled from Triple-A Buffalo, where he has been impressive with a .315 batting average and 15 stolen bases this season. He previously went hitless in his only major league appearance this season but has shown potential in the minors.

In corresponding moves, Alan Roden and Dillon Tate have been optioned to Buffalo, while Steward Berroa has been designated for assignment. Tate struggled with a 5.06 ERA over 5 1/3 innings for the Blue Jays, while Roden started strong but has cooled off, currently hitting .178 with one home run this season. Braydon Fisher has been promoted to the major leagues, boasting a solid 2.38 ERA over 11 1/3 innings in the minors, although he has yet to make his big-league debut.
