Brewers placed RHP Trevor Megill on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to July 26, with a lower back strain.
Megill hadn’t pitched since Tuesday, though the Brewers didn’t let it be known that his back was a problem. This could mean Joel Payamps will get save chances when Devin Williams is unavailable. Williams, who just came off the IL on Sunday, isn’t expected to pitch on back-to-back days for a little while.
