Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Enoli Paredes (forearm) has been placed on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday. This is a tough blow to the Brewers bullpen considering how impressive Paredes has looked this season. He holds a 1.08 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 12/8 K/BB ratio across 16 2/3 innings this season. The severity of the issue is unknown, so the Brewers should give an update on his timetable soon. In a corresponding move, right-hander Janson Junk has been recalled to take his spot in the bullpen.

Former Houston Astros reliever Enoli Paredes has signed a minor league deal with the Milwaukee Brewers, which includes an invitation to major league spring training. The 29-year-old righty posted a 4.80 ERA, 1.528 WHIP, and 66:45 K/BB ratio over 54 1/3 innings (52 appearances) with Triple-A Sugarland last season. He also owns a 3.90 ERA and 1.825 WHIP over 32 1/3 major league innings with the Astros. He will provide some solid organizational depth for Milwaukee.
