Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Sent down to minors
The Brewers optioned Dunn to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.
Dunn has started at third base all 11 times the Brewers have faced a right-handed pitcher this season, but he'll head back to the minors after slashing just .167/.205/.222 across 41 plate appearances. The Brewers have not announced a corresponding roster move, but they could recall Caleb Durbin from Nashville to take over as their primary option at the hot corner.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Swipes bag Tuesday
Dunn went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's win over the Tigers.
Dunn walked and stole second in the eighth for his first steal of the year. He had just three steals in 41 games last year and doesn't run a ton. The 27-year-old is slashing just .171/.211/.229 with five RBI, four runs and a 2:11 BB:K in 39 plate appearances.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: On bench against lefty
Dunn is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.
With lefty Tarik Skubal on the bump for Detroit, the left-handed-hitting Dunn will give way to platoon mate Vinny Capra at third base. Dunn has logged 28 of his 34 plate appearances against right-handed pitching this season, but he's still slashing an underwhelming .194/.212/.258 while striking out at 23.5 percent clip.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Hitting bench against lefty
Dunn isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Diamondbacks.
The Brewers will match up against left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez on Friday, so the left-handed bat of Dunn will begin the game in the dugout. Vinny Capra will fill in at third base and bat eighth.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Resting versus LHP
Dunn isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.
Colorado will send left-hander Kyle Freeland to the bump to start Tuesday's contest, so the Brewers will start Vinny Capra at third base instead of the lefty-hitting Dunn.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Out again versus lefty
Dunn is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Reds.
The Brewers are facing a lefty in Nick Lodolo, which is the fifth time in seven games that they've gone up against a southpaw. Dunn has begun all of those tilts on the bench and will again yield third base to Vinny Capra on Thursday.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: On bench against lefty
Dunn is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.
Dunn has started in just two of the Brewers' first six games, but all four of his absences from the lineup have come against left-handed pitching. He appears to be in a strict platoon at third base with Vinny Capra, who will get another start Wednesday but should see his playing time fade once the Brewers face more right-handers.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Out against lefty
Dunn is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.
Milwaukee will face a left-handed starting pitcher (Kris Bubic) for the third time in four games, and the left-handed-hitting Dunn has found himself on the bench for each of those contests. Vinny Capra will get another start at third base, but Dunn still looks to be in line for the bulk of the playing time at the position as the strong-side platoon option.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Sitting again versus LHP
Dunn isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.
With the Brewers set to face a lefty (Max Fried) for a second consecutive game to open their season, the lefty-hitting Dunn will remain on the bench Saturday while Vinny Capra starts at the hot corner and bats eighth.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: On bench for opener
Dunn is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees.
Though he'll be on the bench Thursday versus Yankees lefty Carlos Rodon, the lefty-hitting Dunn looks poised to open the season as Milwaukee's primary option at third base versus right-handed pitching. Vinny Capra will get the nod at the hot corner Thursday and will bat eighth.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Healthy for spring training
Dunn (back) will start at third base and bat cleanup in Wednesday's Cactus League game against the Diamondbacks.
After a standout performance last spring, Dunn secured a spot on the Brewers' Opening Day roster. He slashed .221/.282./316 with one home run and three stolen bases in 104 plate appearances for Milwaukee, but he didn't see any action after mid-June due to a disc issue in his back. The 27-year-old seems to be back to full health again following a lengthy layoff, and he's already off to another hot start this spring, going 4-for-9 with a home run, a walk and two stolen bases through his first three spring games. Dunn is once again competing for a utility infield role with the Brewers, though he could be in the mix for a strong-side platoon role at third base if Milwaukee opts not to carry infield prospect Caleb Durbin on its Opening Day roster.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Moves to 60-day IL
The Brewers transferred Dunn (back) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Dunn hasn't played at any level since June 12, with his last appearance coming with the Brewers before he was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on June 19. The Brewers later revoked the transaction June 27, instead placing him on their 10-day injured list with a back strain. Though Brewers manager Pat Murphy said after Dunn's placement on the 10-day IL that the utility infielder would be sidelined for at least one month, the 26-year-old's move to the 60-day IL now indicates that Milwaukee is preparing for him to miss at least two months. In a corresponding move, Brewers selected the contract of outfielder Brewer Hicklen to take Dunn's spot on the 40-man roster.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Sidelined at least one month
Manager Pat Murphy said Saturday that Dunn has a disc issue in his back and is expected to remain on the injured list for at least another month, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Dunn landed on the MLB injured list Wednesday after originally being sent to Triple-A on June 19, and it now seems that he'll be stuck on the IL for an extended period of time. The 26-year-old infielder hadn't been playing very often anyway prior to landing on the IL, and he'll likely be optioned to Nashville again once he's fully recovered.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Lands on IL with back strain
The Brewers recalled Dunn from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday and placed him on the 10-day injured list with a back strain.
Dunn was optioned to Nashville last week, but it turns out that he had been dealing with a back injury so he will go on the IL instead. It's not clear how long he might be sidelined, but the infielder could be optioned again once he's healthy.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Dispatched to Nashville
The Brewers optioned Dunn to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.
Playing time has been hard to come across recently for Dunn, and the emergence of Joey Ortiz hasn't helped. The 26-year-old Dunn has slashed .221/.282/.316 through 104 plate appearances in the big leagues this year and will now head back to the minors to get back on track. Tyler Black was recalled from Nashville in a corresponding move.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: No longer starting Sunday
Dunn was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the White Sox.
The 26-year-old was set to receive his first start in a week Sunday, but he'll instead sit as William Contreras and Willy Adames were late additions to the lineup. Joey Ortiz has established himself as Milwaukee's everyday third baseman, so Dunn is unlikely to see much playing time while the infield group remains healthy.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Back in majors
Milwaukee recalled Dunn from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday. He'll start at third base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
After being optioned to Nashville earlier in May, the 26-year-old infielder earned his way back to the majors after slashing .310/.394/.517 across eight games at Triple-A. Though he'll get the starting nod Sunday in his return to the big club, Dunn is still expected to play second fiddle to Joey Ortiz at third base and will likely function as more of a utility man.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Heading to minors
The Brewers optioned Dunn to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.
Though he served as Milwaukee's designated hitter in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Pirates, Dunn's playing time had been relatively sparse since mid-April with Joey Ortiz overtaking him as the preferred option at third base. As a left-handed hitter, Dunn wasn't a fit for the Brewers as a strong-side platoon player, either, so he'll head to Nashville to get some everyday playing time. Outfielder Chris Roller was called up from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Expected to be optioned
Dunn appears set to be optioned to Triple-A Nashville prior to Wednesday's game versus the Pirates, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
The Brewers haven't announced any transactions as Wednesday's 1:10 p.m. ET opening pitch approaches, but Dunn no longer had a locker in the clubhouse. Dunn has slashed just .192/.240/.255 since April 16 and has seen his playing time slip, so his expected demotion doesn't come as a surprise.

Brewers' Oliver Dunn: Back on bench Monday
Dunn is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.
Dunn started at third base in each of the past four contests and went 5-for-13 with a triple, a walk, three runs and an RBI over that stretch. Despite the run of steady playing time of late, Dunn is still expected to move back into a utility role, as manager Pat Murphy noted Sunday that he wanted to give the rookie a more extended look after he had fallen out of favor in recent weeks. Dunn likely hit well enough to maintain his spot on the 26-man active roster for now, but Joey Ortiz still profiles as the Brewers' top option at the hot corner.
