Tellez’s return to Brewers halted by finger injury

CINCINNATI —
Tellez isn’t expected to resume baseball activity for two to three weeks. He has been on the injured list since July 5 with right forearm inflammation.
Tellez is hitting .213 with 12 homers and 36 RBIs. Owen Miller is expected to get the bulk of the playing time at first base.
On June 2, Brewers infielder/designated hitter Darin Ruf cut a knee when he collided with the tarp roller while chasing a foul ball in Cincinnati.
“Our trainers are unhappy with whatever’s going on at Great American Ball Park,” Counsell quipped.
Also Sunday, the Brewers placed third baseman Brian Anderson on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Friday, with a lower back strain. Infielder Jahmai Jones was recalled from Triple-A Nashville.
“As we kind of got through yesterday, he wasn’t doing great,” Counsell said of Anderson. “The likelihood of him playing in the Philadelphia series got pretty slim, so it was logical to put him on the injured list.”
Anderson is batting .229 with nine homers and 38 RBIs in 292 at-bats.
