Aaron Civale, a key pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers, has been placed on the injured list following a hamstring injury sustained in a recent game against the New York Yankees. In his last outing, Civale allowed five runs over three innings, contributing to the Brewers' disappointing 12-3 loss. Last season, he had a respectable 4.36 ERA after being acquired from Tampa Bay, and his absence leaves the Brewers reeling amid an injury crisis that has already sidelined several key pitchers, including Brandon Woodruff and Aaron Ashby.

The Brewers have called up Grant Anderson from Triple-A to fill Civale's roster spot, but manager Pat Murphy noted that Mears, Quintana, Myers, and Civale are expected back before May. The Brewers will need to tighten their pitching strategy to recover from their rough start to the season, which saw them swept in a three-game series against the Yankees.
