Left out of lineup Sunday
Lara is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.
Analyse
Lara will head to the bench after he went 2-for-6 with a double, two walks and a run while starting both games of Saturday's doubleheader. Though he isn't locked in as a regular in the Milwaukee outfield just yet, the switch-hitting Lara will likely be a mainstay in the lineup against left-handed pitching and should handle at least a part-time role versus righties.

Productive in MLB debut
Lara went 1-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and two RBI in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader sweep of the Cardinals.
Analyse
Called up for his big-league debut Tuesday when David Hamilton (hamstring) landed on the IL, Lara got the start in center field and batted second in the nightcap, and he made an immediate impact. The 21-year-old switch hitter broke out at Triple-A Nashville this season, posting a .324/.436/.474 slash line over 78 games with 24 steals in 31 attempts and more walks (55) than strikeouts (47), and he's got a clear path to earning a regular spot in the Milwaukee outfield thanks to the seven-year, $31 million contract extension he signed last month.

Batting second in MLB debut
Lara is starting in center field and batting second in Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.
Analyse
The 21-year-old was promoted prior to the start of the twin bill and didn't see the field in Game 1, but he'll fill a marquee spot in the lineup while making his MLB debut in the nightcap. Lara is one of Milwaukee's top prospects and has posted a .910 OPS with nine homers and 24 steals in 78 games at Triple-A Nashville this season.

Promotion official
The Brewers recalled Lara from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.
Analyse
There were some conflicting reports about whether Milwaukee would be promoting the 21-year-old Tuesday while David Hamilton (hamstring) continues to be evaluated, but the top prospect has now officially been called up ahead of the doubleheader in St. Louis. Lara inked a seven-year, $31 million extension with the Brewers in early June and has been an offensive force at Nashville this year with a .324/.436/.474 slash line, nine home runs and 24 steals in 78 games. Milwaukee's starting outfield is currently in good health, so Lara may have to settle for a semi-regular role unless the club is willing to give him a look in right field over Sal Frelick.
