Garrett Mitchell Suffers Forearm Contusion on Sunday Night
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Garrett Mitchell (forearm) was pulled from Sunday night's game early against the Atlanta Braves with a right-forearm contusion, according to Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Mitchell was hit by a pitch in his right forearm in the fourth inning and was replaced in center field by Luis Lara the following inning. He avoided any significant damage to his forearm and should be considered day-to-day by fantasy managers. Before leaving early, Mitchell was hitless with a strikeout and the hit-by-pitch. With a scheduled day off coming for Milwaukee on Monday, the left-handed-hitting outfielder could be ready to go by Tuesday's series opener in New York against the Mets, although the Brew Crew will be facing left-hander Zac Thornton in that contest. Mitchell has a lengthy injury history in just his fifth MLB season, but he's played in a career-high 117 games in 2026 and entered Sunday's tilt with a .263/.359/.423 slash line, .782 OPS, nine homers, 54 RBI, 12 steals, and 54 runs scored in 427 plate appearances. The former UCLA star has hit .279 (22-for-79) against lefties, but with only one of his nine homers on the year. Mitchell also has just one homer since the All-Star break.
