| Player Notes |
| October 3, 2006 Despite speculation that he may be converted to an outfielder, Rickie Weeks will remain at second base, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. "With the progress he made, I think we feel that he's the guy at second base," GM Doug Melvin said. "When we had our meeting the other day (to evaluate and analyze players), it was never brought up that we should move Rickie off second base." |
| September 1, 2006 The Brewers tranferred Rickie Weeks to the 60-day disabled list Friday. He's out with an injured tendon in his right wrist. |
| August 15, 2006 Rickie Weeks will undergo season-ending surgery on his right wrist later this week in Phoenix, according to the AP. The expected recovery time is six-to-eight weeks. |
| August 9, 2006 Rickie Weeks will undergo season-ending surgery on his right wrist next week, according to the AP. "It wasn't getting any better," Weeks said Wednesday. "The best situation for me right now is to go ahead and get it done." Weeks, who hit .279 with eight homers, 34 RBI and 19 steals this year, will be recovered in plenty of time for the 2007 season. |
| August 8, 2006 Rickie Weeks has to decide if he wants to have season ending surgery on his right wrist, according to the AP. Weeks has a tendon in his right wrist that continues to snap out of place when he swings a bat. "It's not a serious injury, but it's an injury that prevents him from swinging a bat," said team physician Dr. William Raasch. "Surgery is becoming more and more of an option for him." |
| August 5, 2006 The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports that Rickie Weeks hit balls off a tee yesterday. However, he experienced more pain in his injured right wrist and had to stop after just a few cuts. It's possible that his season may be over. "It didn't go too good," manager Ned Yost said. "It's still hurting. We'll give it a little more time. We're trying to figure it out. We're not ready to give up on it yet." |
| August 1, 2006 Rickie Weeks, on the DL with an injured tendon in his right wrist, will start hitting off a tee Friday, according to the AP. "We want to see where he's at," manager Ned Yost said. "He's already taking ground balls." There has been some talk that Weeks could be sidelined for the rest of the year, but that doesn't appear likely at this point. |
| July 30, 2006 Rickie Weeks, placed on the DL Saturday with an injured tendon in his right wrist, could be sidelined for the rest of the season, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. "That's a possibility," said general manager Doug Melvin when asked if Weeks had played his last game for the Brewers this year. "We're going to wait 10 days or so to see if it can heal enough and he can tolerate it." Surgery to repair the wrist would result in a recovery period of six to eight weeks, so Weeks could wait until after the season to have the procedure. Tony Graffanino should continue to fill in at second while Weeks is out. |
| July 29, 2006 The Brewers placed Rickie Weeks on the 15-day disabled list with an injured tendon in his right wrist, according to the AP. He suffered the injury when he was hit by a pitch last weekend. He hasn't played since July 24. |
| July 28, 2006 Rickie Weeks did not start for the third straight game Friday with irritation in his right wrist, according to the AP. Tony Graffanino, acquired by the Brewers from Kansas City on Tuesday, started his second straight game in Weeks' place. |
| July 26, 2006 Rickie Weeks was out of the starting lineup Tuesday after having to leave Monday's game with irritation in his right wrist, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. Manager Ned Yost said that he will probably sit Weeks again today. "There's no sense really pushing it," Yost said. "We've got a day game (today) and an off day Thursday." Chris Barnwell or the newly-acquired Tony Graffanino will likely start at second in place of Weeks. |
| July 25, 2006 The right wrist injury that forced Rickie Weeks to leave Monday's game was diagnosed as wrist inflammation, according to the Brewers website. Weeks is considered day-to-day. |
| July 24, 2006 Rickie Weeks left Monday's game in the second inning with right wrist irritation, according to the AP. No further information is known at this time. He was replaced by Chris Barnwell. |
| April 25, 2006 Rickie Weeks batted leadoff for the first time this season on Monday, and Brewers manager Ned Yost suggested that Weeks will stay at the top spot for a while, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. "It doesn't matter to me," Weeks said. "I'm not going to do anything different. Everything stays the same. The only thing that might be different is more opportunity to steal bases when I get on. That's about it." |
| April 24, 2006 Rickie Weeks batted leadoff on Monday for the first time this season. He replaced the struggling Brady Clark, who dropped to eighth. |
| March 29, 2006 The Brewers website reports that Rickie Weeks will probably bat sixth this season. "We think Rickie's got a chance to be a real run producer," manager Ned Yost said. "We feel like he's going to have more opportunities to drive in runs for us hitting in the six than in the two." |
| March 28, 2006 Rickie Weeks, who has been out since March 13 with a strained right oblique muscle, returned to the lineup Monday night and went 0-for-3, scoring a run, according to the AP. |
| March 27, 2006 Recovering from a strained right oblique, Rickie Weeks took five at-bats in a minor league game yesterday and could play for the Brewers in an exhibition game today, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. |
| March 24, 2006 Rickie Weeks, who is dealing with a strained right oblique, has been taking part in fielding drills and doing some work in the cage, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. However, he has not been cleared to participate in batting practice. Weeks could return to game action within the next few days. |
| March 23, 2006 Rickie Weeks hit off a tee Wednesday for the first time since straining an oblique muscle last week and also took grounders at second base during batting practice, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. Brewers manager Ned Yost wants to play it safe by holding Weeks out of games a couple of more days. |
| March 22, 2006 Rickie Weeks hasn't been cleared to test his strained right oblique by swinging a bat, though his condition is improving, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. "I'm just doing what they tell me to do," Weeks said. "But it feels better." |
| March 15, 2006 The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports that Rickie Weeks was held out of drills Tuesday after sustaining a strained right oblique the day before. "It was sore this morning because I did the stim (electric stimulator) machine and iced it all night," he said. "We'll just have to see how it feels (Wednesday)." |
| February 18, 2006 Brewers manager Ned Yost said it was obvious from watching Rickie Weeks swing the bat during workouts that he has completely recovered from thumb surgery, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. "You watch Rickie hit and there's no problems," Yost said. "He's full-go." |
| February 5, 2006 Rickie Weeks has begun swinging a bat and is expected to be fully recovered from his thumb surgery for spring training, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. |
