Brewers left fielder Jackson Chourio and first baseman Andrew Vaughn are both set to begin rehab assignments with Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday ahead of projected May 4 returns to the major league level, the team announced Tuesday.
Both Chourio and Vaughn have been sidelined since at least Opening Day with broken bones in their left hands.
Chourio was placed on the injured list the day of the first game of the season due to a fractured bone at the base of his middle finger which occurred on a hit-by-pitch during a World Baseball Classic warmup game. He’s hit .272 with 42 homers, 64 doubles and 157 RBIs the last two seasons for the Brewers.
Vaughn sustained a broken hamate bone in Milwaukee’s Opening Day win over the Chicago White Sox. Acquired at the trade deadline last season from Chicago, Vaughn hit .308 with nine homers and 46 RBIs in 64 games with Milwaukee in 2025.
The Brewers, who have won the National League Central each of the last three years, are in last place of the competitive division at 14-13 just over a month into the regular season.
