Wed May 13 201510:43Herrera will receive another start at third base Wednesday
Herrera will receive another start at third base Wednesday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Herrera homered in his third straight game Tuesday, and regular third baseman Aramis Ramirez is still dealing with a sore back, so manager Craig Counsell will stick with the hot hand and give Herrera his sixth straight start at third base Wednesday night. Herrera is hitting just .228 this year, but he owns a .782 OPS on the season thanks to four home runs and three doubles.

Herrera went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer that put the Brewers on top for good in the win over the White Sox on Monday night.
Aramis Ramirez continues to be sidelined by a back injury, which was enabled Herrera to take over as the team's interim third baseman. Monday's start was the fourth consecutive game that Herrera has been in the lineup for Milwaukee, and he's now delivered a home run in back-to-back games after going deep on Mother's Day against the Cubs.
Wed Apr 29 201510:13Herrera not in lineup Wednesday for second straight day
Herrera is not in the lineup Wednesday for the second straight day.
Herrera had been seeing regular action at second base, but he will be held out in favor of Hector Gomez again Wednesday. The two figure to continue sharing the second base duties until Scooter Gennett (hand) returns to action, likely next week.
Tue Apr 28 201515:18Herrera not in lineup for Tuesday's game against Reds
Herrera is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds.

Herrera hit a grand slam in his first appearance of the season Tuesday in a loss to the Reds.
Herrera took over starting duties at second base with Scooter Gennett (hand) out. Last season he appeared in 69 games for the Brewers and drove in just five runs. Expect him to continue to compete for starting time with Hector Gomez until Gennett returns.

Herrera will play second base and hit second in Tuesday's game against the Reds.
It's not exactly clear how Herrera and Hector Gomez will split the second base duties in Scooter Gennett's absence, but Herrera will jump right into the lineup after being called up Tuesday morning. Herrera owns just one home run and four stolen bases over 141 career MLB games, but he did hit .288 against right-handers last season, and posted a 1.144 OPS through 11 games with Triple-A Colorado Springs this year.
Tue Apr 21 201513:09Herrera called up from Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday
Herrera was called up from Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday.
Herrera was called up to take the roster spot of Scooter Gennett, who was placed on the disabled list with a hand injury. Herrera hit a sizzling .422 (19-for-45) through 11 games with Colorado Springs, but he will likely fill a utility role with the big club and does not figure to see regular at-bats.
Wed Apr 15 201512:10Herrera 13-26 (.500) with two home runs, six RBI, and nine runs ...
Herrera is 13-for-26 (.500) with two home runs, six RBI, and nine runs scored through nine games with Triple-A Colorado Springs.
Herrera was the last position player cut by the Brewers at the end of spring training, but that did not deter him from jumping out to a fast start with Colorado Springs. He will garner consideration when the Brewers need to call up a hitter from the Triple-A ranks.
Thu Apr 2 201512:38Herrera returned to minor league camp Thursday
Herrera was returned to minor league camp Thursday.
Herrera made a strong run at a spot on the Brewers' Opening Day roster, but his 2015 campaign will begin with Triple-A Colorado Springs. Herrera appeared in 69 games with the Brewers last season and can play both the infield and outfield, so he figures to be among the first options when the Brewers need to bring up a player from the minors.

Herrera is 7-for-23 (.304) with a home run and five RBI through 15 spring games.
Herrera has hit the ball well this spring, but the Brewers know what they have him in after he appeared in 69 games for the club last season, and he has received limited opportunities while the team evaluates other players. With that being said, he remains in the discussion for a utility spot on the Opening Day roster.

Herrera cleared waivers and has been outrighted to Triple-A Colorado Springs.
Herrera, who was DFA'd last week to make room on the 40-man for Neal Cotts, will receive an invite to major league spring training as a non-roster player.

Herrera has been designated for assignment to make room for the newly signed Neal Cotts.
Herrera served as a bench bat and occasional fill-in at several positions for the Brewers in 2012, but doesn't have the plate discipline or power to make any real impact on offense. His 2.1 percent walk rate was one of the ten worst in the league (minimum 100 plate appearances). The 29-year-old could be picked up on waivers for a team looking for a utility player capable of covering pretty much any position in the infield or outfield.
Sun Jul 13 201417:23Herrera has five-hit day in win over Cards
Elian Herrera had a big day on Sunday, going 5-for-5 with three runs scored in a win over the Cardinals.
Filling in for Jean Segura, Herrera had as many hits Sunday as he had in his previous 24 at-bats spanning back to mid-June. The career day raised his batting average from .232 to .276. When Segura returns from the Dominican Republic, where he's tending to some family issues, Herrera will likely find himself back at Triple-A.
