The Brewers are getting closer to welcoming back a key bullpen piece.
Left-hander DL Hall is working his way back from a left pectoral strain that has kept him sidelined since June 5. On Wednesday, Hall made his second rehab outing, this one for Triple-A Nashville.
Here’s the latest on Hall’s rehab, including when he might be back with the Brewers.
How did he perform?
Hall allowed one run on a hit and a walk in 1 2/3 innings for the Sounds on the road at Triple-A Sugar Land. He struck out three.
Hall averaged 95.3 mph on his sinker and 96.0 mph on his four-seam fastball, maxing out at 96.3 mph on his sinker and 96.5 mph on his four-seamer. He got six whiffs on 13 swings (46.2%).
What’s next
The Brewers are still hoping to see Hall complete back-to-back outings before being activated. He should be back with the Major League club in late July or early August.
Hall has a 2.03 ERA in 24 appearances (one start) in 2026, walking seven and striking out 32 in 31 innings.
What they’re saying
“It couldn’t have gone much better,” Hall told reporters after throwing a scoreless inning in his first rehab outing on Sunday with High-A Wisconsin.
What else?
Hall is one of a number of notable Brewers, including lefty starter Kyle Harrison, outfielder Brandon Lockridge and infielder David Hamilton, working their way back from injuries. In the bullpen, right-hander Joel Kuhnel (right rotator cuff tendinopathy) and lefty Rob Zastryzny (left upper trap strain) are currently on the IL, so Milwaukee will be looking forward to Hall’s return.
