Why hasn’t this Brewers outfielder made his 2026 Spring Training debut yet?

Steward Berroa didn't get a ton of time with the Milwaukee Brewers last year after the Crew picked him up from the Los Angeles Dodgers in a minor midseason trade, but he still offers something to dream on as a 26-year-old outfielder with speed and excellent defensive skills.

Unfortunately, he hasn't been able to debut in Spring Training yet in what figures to be a crucial year for his playing future. Not much has been said about his absence other than some mid-February comments from Pat Murphy about Berroa's delayed start to camp, but a quick look at the Brewers' transaction logs reveals what's really going on: he's dealing with a shoulder strain.
