PHOENIX (AP) — Milwaukee Brewers pitcher JB
Bukauskas is expected to miss the entire season because of lat
surgery, the latest injury-related setback for a former
first-round draft pick.
The 28-year-old Bukauskas missed most of the 2024 season with a
lat injury as well. The right-hander went 0-0 with a 1.50 ERA in
six relief appearances with Milwaukee and had a 0-0 record with
a 1.80 ERA in six outings with Triple-A Nashville.
Bukauskas is 2-2 with a 5.04 ERA in 33 career appearances, all
in relief. The Houston Astros selected him out of North Carolina
with the 15th overall pick in the 2017 draft.
