Original Text:
A hand injury will once again keep Ryan Braun out of the Milwaukee Brewers lineup.
Adam McCalvy of MLB.com provided the latest info on the former MVP:
Braun missed two games earlier in the week with the same issue but returned Friday to go 1-for-4 in the team's first win in 10 games.
With the squad desperately trying to hold onto the second Wild Card spot in the National League as well as potentially catching the St. Louis Cardinals for a division title, the Brewers need one of their top hitters at full strength.
After missing the second half of last season due to suspension, Braun has had an up-and-down year in 2014. He is currently hitting .275 with 18 home runs and a team-leading 77 RBI. While this is certainly a drop in production from what he showed a few years ago, the Brewers will still hope he is able to return to action as soon as possible.
